Wouldn't it be nice if North Korean officials would decide to feed their starving instead of pouring money into obnoxious funeral arrangements?
I know. Wishful thinking....

I know. Wishful thinking.... | | | | | They probably are feeding the starving... but starving army comes before starving non-army...

The year 2011 is luckies year ever for the US gov. - the 3 big enemies of the US is dead in 2011 : Bin Laden, Gaddafi and Kim Jong-il. Has the US government let a shaman perform special ritual for that? haha!
The situation now is a bit different as the father Kim Ilsung died in 1994 - Kim Ilsung had designated Kim Jongil early enough, but Kim Jongil has had his heir only since a year and he died so suddenly, his successor hasn't got solid support from the internal military group yet. Lets wait and see what happens in the korean peninsula in 2012.  |

He was a great Jedi. Maybe if Darth Maul hadn't killed him Anakin would have gotten better training.
But I thought everyone knew he had died?

Man, I would hate to be the Bernese kid who was bullying his son for having a funny accent right about now.

They did shot a test missile into South Korea today: | Quote: |  | | | The unexpected death has thrown the region into crisis mode- not helped by a test missile reportedly fired into South Korea from the North earlier today. | | | | | Guardian UK |

Call me cynical but its probably for all international news sources to broadcast how the north koreans are grieving for their "dear leader".  | | This user would like to thank summerrain for this useful post: | |

Hey - the West had Lady Di and Steve Jobs, North Korea has (had) the "Beloved Leader" (or whatever comedy-title he had).
