Here, thanks to the Danger Room of "Wired", is the latest and greatest dope on the purported successor to Kim Jong-il the Dear Leader of North Korea. Third son of Kim, Kim Jong-un!
"Meet North Korea’s New Top Cop"
"There’s a new sheriff in Pyongyang: South Korea’s Dong-a Ilbo reports that Kim Jong-un, the son of North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il, has been named the head of the country’s secret police."
"Kim Jong-il is in failing health . . . [and] a handover of power may be imminent."
Un is only twenty-six years old. The man is a totally unknown factor in the "west", and for that matter, in North Korea too?
Un at age eleven. NO other photos of the man are in circulation?!
Being given control of the secret police in a nation ruled by a brutal regime is significant? First son and second son the siblings of Un will be cut-out of any power sharing? They will be in line for "treatment" in the North Korean "GULAG", whatever it is called.
Un has been given the appellation of "Brilliant Comrade"! NOT "Brilliant Commander" as previously reported.
Well, Un will have at his disposal nuclear weapons, possibly intercontinental ballistic missiles, ten thousand or so pieces of tube artillery, etc. Good luck Un. Perhaps the siblings "first son" and "second son" will NOT go quietly into the night? Will have their own factions and contest the decision of Kim Jong-il? A fight to the death as is the ancient tradition among "eastern" despots is in store? We shall see!!
Twenty-six years old!! And folks said that Obama did not have enough experience!!
coolbert.
