Are we gonna see ww3? Seems like biden trying to make it worse for trump to end this war.
It's just propaganda, if there was something important they needed to attack before, they would have done it. At the same time, Russia could always do its own countermoves regardless of whatever NATO chooses to do.
Meant to make it harder for Trump to back out of the war.

Because small part/s of Russians land are occupied by foreigner/s, I think NK is bound to the treaty to help Russia to fight foreigners on Russian soil (?)
Why would it have anything to do with escalation?
You can't do a full scale strategic bombing campaign with a very limited amount of munitions. There's simply no massive excess stockpiles lying around as these are very important type of weapons for the Pacific theatre.
These munitions have to be used where they are most impactful - striking military logistics and military infrastructure near the frontline.
This has been in Ukraine, as defined by the US; now Kursk is a big new exception, as it's entirely in Russia.
There's no reason to believe military deliveries to Ukraine and their usage are limited by anything else than the physical reality as well as strategic priorities of the US.
Are we also going to pretend the F-16 is delayed by at least a year because of issues with training, rather than the physical needs of the Israeli airforce?

exactly.
In theory, yes. The problem is that NATO and the West understand that North Korea's decision is to send troops to Russia to fight Ukraine. In their shared view, this has nothing to do with Russia or the DPRK, but with Ukraine.
In fact, they are claiming that the American authorization for Ukraine was given three days ago; the massive attack by Russian drones and missiles on Sunday would not have been considered in this decision, as other important sources have implied. The authorization has nothing to do with Sunday's attack.
In such circumstances, it would be difficult for such a decision to have been made without the approval of President-elect Trump. Strategic decisions in the US are traditionally bipartisan. And this would be a strategic decision. Even with Trump's son's denial in a post on X. This may have been agreed upon at the meeting between Trump and Biden at the White House, and could be a measure to pressure Putin to the negotiating table.
If it is indeed confirmed, it could be part of Trump's strategy to try to force the start of negotiations. Personally, I think he failed to coordinate with the Russians. They are unlikely to accept this kind of pressure unless these attacks lead to internal upheaval such that a power shift occurs in Russia. The problem is that before that point is reached, nuclear weapons will be on Russia's list of priorities.
