IOTL President Bill Clinton considered a strike against North Korea's Yongbyon nuclear reactor because the regime refused to allow inspections, raising suspicions that they were processing spent fuel into plutonium for nuclear weapons. Clinton was dissuaded from such a strike because of the casualties of a potential reignited Korean War. Let's say that this advice doesn't reach Clinton and the strike goes ahead in 1994 or 1995 (which would be during the floods that crippled North Korea, forcing it to request aid). What happens next?
