Merged Kim Jong Il is dead / You must cry

[Gazpacho]

He was looking so vibrant during the last few years

Ding dong, etc.

This can go either way for North Korea. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping the new Kim will be a good man and want to change things for the better for his nation.

What's the chances that three generations in a row will give the country a total narcissistic sociopath as demi-god?

Like father, like son...we'll see how it goes.

There's not a chance in hell that he's a good man. But there are many levels of bad.

North Korea is dying. It will get worse before it gets better. But it does remain an open question of how bad it will get, and we can but hope that the answer will be "not much worse".

100%.

King Jong dead?

I didn't even know he was il!

 

[Normal Dude]

The South Korean army on high alert.

That's pretty standard. Any time a major event occurs over there they go on alert.

 

[Gazpacho]

so.... I guess the Juche 100 celebration is off then

 

[Noztradamus]

The Kim is dead. Long live the Kim.

Ding dong the Il is dead....

 

[cambion]

How can a guy who invented the hamburger and averaged 5 holes-in-one every round die? I'm beginning to think he may have been lying about that stuff...

 

[Denver]

Wonder if anything in that country will change now?

Here is an interesting CNN article on that:

Will the North Koreans Rise Up?

 

[Beerina]

They always come in threes: Hitchens, Vaclav Haval and now Kim jong-il.

Better yet, here ya go!




All three in one!

I myself doubt that he is even mortal. No, his heroic leadership and deep affection towards the people of the country he fought to preserve proves otherwise. The human manifestation of his soul may have ceased, but I for one feel that The Leader is still smiling at us from upon, blessing us with his divinity and guiding us through the path to virtue.
