It seems to be about Kim getting his third son to succeed him.
The situation has comedy potential:
"While the outside world was condemning Kim, state media had him enjoying a performance by troops including the songs Our General Is the Best and Song of Coastal Artillery Women."

Aah. Song of Coastal Artillery Women. They don't make them like that anymore.
Wish I could find the lyrics.

Its in their special 150 songs to sing while wearing doc martens catalogue.
Actually, the site above has downloads available for such classic titles as:
•No Motherland Without You (Kim Jong Il’s signature tune, the lyrics to which list his super-human powers.)
•The Song of General Kim Il Sung
•The Song of the Dear Comrade Kim Jong Il
Maybe Casey Kasem should do the Top 40 North Korean countdown.
Edit: I see Bosse has beaten me to the punch.

I think the US should let China take care of their problem child.
As a motivating factor, though, the US could make a casual comment that a nuclear-armed North Korea would have to be counterbalanced with a nuclear-armed -- oh, which one?...Taiwan, say.
That might possibly create an interesting dialogue.
The Rapture will come soon enough; why are you right wing nuts in such a hurry?

"Also an apparent golfer, North Korean state media reports that Kim routinely shoots three or four holes-in-one per round"
Hahahahahahahaaaaa.

Originally posted by spruce112358Sanctioning China to step into the region as local deputy of Global Industrial interests, would surely signal a massive shift in the way the international community does its security business. Instead of arming up Taiwan to counterbalance NK, what if China itself were simply allowed by the international community to start more pro-actively *protecting* its south eastern border should Kim Jong get more "ill". Allowing China to build up forces on her shared border may prove enough of a *message* to get them to soften their belligerent attitudes.
