He may be indeed dead by now, as a radio station run by NK defectors reports today.

P!

He may be indeed dead by now, as a radio station run by NK defectors reports today.

What? No "Show Trial"? How un-Stalinistic.

But in unconfirmed reports emerging Monday, Free North Korea Radio said that Jang and his aides has actually been executed on December 5, four days before the reported special meeting of the Political Bureau.

Jang had been executed for trying to get rid of Kim Jong Un “in association with China” and now all of the organizations he had been responsible for are being monitored, an unnamed source told Free North Korea Radio .

Further executions should be expected and there was also rumor that Vice Marshal Choe Ryong Hae could be next on the purge list, being organized by Kim Jong Un and uncle Ko Soo Il, the source added.

The probability of a collapse is increased. Update all contingency plans.

In this article in Rodong Sinmun http://www.rodong.rep.kp/ko/index.php?strPageID=SF01_02_01&newsID=2013-12-09-0001&chAction=T there is a very emotional attack against Jang Sung Taek, Kim Jong un really feels betrayed. The name of Jang Sung Taek is mentioned 20 times. If we can guess from the vitriolic text there is a high risk that Kim will go back to the basics of pure ideology. He is only 30 and at that age many believes in ideological fairy tails. I feel sorry for the people in NK that have to live in this bad tragedy.

It feels surrealistic to find an English text at the bottom of the page in Korean: “Copyright @ 2010-2013 by The Rodong Sinmun. All rights reserved.”

My that was a short chancelorship to tutor the boy King on how to rule as a dictator. A little more than four years, a year or so for prep, and then co-leading after the old man kicked the bucket.

The way the NSA picks up EVERYTHING, I am sure if they already know if Jang (aka "Fishlips") was machinegunned, dipped in an industrial shredder feet first, or must mortered by KPA soldiers on the side of a mountain so that "nothing would be left of him".

Is DENNIS RODMAN still planning to to to Pyongyang again to meet his "best buddy" and/or as is rumored, prepare the North Korean basketball team for the next Olympics?

I personally think the thing might implode, that somebody will be so upset that their relative was killed and they are close enough to the inner security perimeter of Fat Boy, they must might get a few shots off.

Will be listening to Radio North Korea tonight to hear if there is vitroilic bile spit out about "Fishlips."

[AdmSmith]

They have published the English version. Check for differences.

It seems to be more or less the same text. When was Jang Sung taek abroad for medical treatment? I do not recollect that it was recently. He is as well accused of having spent party money in a casino at that time. Macao?

It seems that the little dictator is cooking up some stories.

OH Man I wonder if auntie is next probably would be

[SevenofNine]

Keep eye on auntie I hear Chia Chub may do something about his aunt very soon

Totalitarian States run on fear... one more reason to fight that crap here.

If they are accusing China of interfering, that’s a sign that NK is aligning with Russia. China has been helpful to NK but also controlling and allows defectors to wander through.
