North Korea shock. Something big is happening
American Thinker ^ | 10/04/14 | Thomas Lifson

It is impossible to know exactly what is going on in North Korea, but something big has happened. The third generation Kim dynasty heir, Kim Jong-un, has been missing from public sight for a month, and may be ill, dead, or overthrown. There is much speculation, and contradictory reports are circulating, including the assertion that Pyongyang is sealed off, and no one is being permitted to enter or leave.

Wait how fast their faces cheer up when they taste that first gooey doughnut or that greasy fried egg and than go into pure orgasmic ecstasy when they first taste that North Carolina pulled pork or smell that slow smoked Texas Brisket.

Hey, you got me smiling ... :-)

Is the Kim Dynasty over?

Has Kim3 become Kimchi?

When those top guys showed up in South Korea that was Earth shattering. I know that relations with China have been very rough for the NorKs this year but I doubt they went down to beg for more food aid.

Sort of.

Yonhap News is their version of CNN but their English site isn’t as well updated.

It’s all over the news.

They are also setting new talks for late Oct/early Nov

SEOUL, Oct. 5 (Yonhap) — North Korea insists its leader Kim Jong-un has “no problems” with his health, South Korea’s unification minister said Sunday, one day after a rare visit by North Korean high-ranking officials to the South.

Unification Minister Ryoo Kihl-jae made the remarks after he met a delegation headed by Hwang Pyong-so, believed to be the second-most powerful man in the communist regime, on Saturday in the western port city of Incheon.

INCHEON, Oct. 4 (Yonhap) — South Korean Prime Minister Chung Hong-won met with a high-level North Korean delegation again on Saturday night before its members returned home after attending the closing ceremony of the Incheon Asian Games.

Chung earlier had met with the North Koreans before the closing ceremony started. Both sides met again after the 16-day regional sports extravaganza ended in a formal ceremony, Seoul officials said. What they discussed in the impromptu meeting was unknown.

...........

This is the most high-level meetings than they have in decades it seem like.

China is actually the one putting pressure on N.Korea by withdrawing heavily the things they want....with a pretty heavy hand I must say.

Those officials went to South Korea on Kim Jong-Un’s jet!!!

http://english.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2014/10/06/2014100601833.html

“A senior North Korean delegation led by Hwang Pyong-so, a vice chairman of the powerful National Defense Commission, flew into Incheon International Airport Saturday on the same jet leader Kim Jong-un and his wife Ri Sol-ju used in May.

The delegation paid a surprise visit to the closing ceremony of the Asian Games.

The plane is painted white and emblazoned with the North’s official name and flag. A big red star in a red circle on the tail wing symbolizes the leader.”

What the heck is happening in North Korea??

I really like uniforms like that. YOu see the old USSR uniforms had medals every where. These Norko unis however take the cake.

I look at that and can’t help but snicker...on their sleeves, pants legs and the fella on the right of the one with the folder appears to have one dangling front and center of his junk.

These guys take this to a whole other level...I’m surprised they can remain upright.

As another posited...”fancy chainmail” just about covers it.
