Hong Kong TV Mogul Claims Kim-Jong-Un Has Died

Even as China has sent in a medical team to North Korea to advise the leader, a Beijing-backed satellite TV channel's vice director, who is also a niece of a Chinese foreign minister, has claimed that Kim Jong Un is dead.

Vice director of HKSTV Hong Kong Satellite Television told her 15 million followers on Weibo that her Kim Jong Un death claim was backed by a "very solid source."

Her post on Weibo since then has been shared widely on social media. There is also a viral image that is being shared that claims to show Kim Jong Un lying dead inside a glass coffin.

While these claims cannot be verified independently, the timing of it certainly makes one curious as now China has sent in a medical team.

“The doctor’s anxiety. Ouch.”

If you want to see a really serious case of doctors’ anxiety, just go to Netflix and watch “The Death of Stalin.”

the medical team treating North Korean leader Kim Jong Un, say the failure of initial surgery has left the 36-year-old in a vegetative state.

Notice the tucked thumbs on the two soldiers. I do that when I’m scared, really nervous or know I could be battling someone.

If China attempts to take “hard control” of N. Korea will the N. Korean military be loyal to the N. Korean people, will they be loyal to China or will they unite with S. Korea and oppose China?

Good post. And to your point, consider that Wuhan is the biggest city and commercial center in central China with a population of 11 million. Its also home to one of the most infamous bio labs in the world. Yet, our vast intel and diplomatic apparatus evidently didn’t know what was going on inside the city.

We cannot afford to be blind sided like this again.

For some reason, I never felt that Kim was REALLY in charge in North Korea. My hunch was he was figure head being manipulated by the aging Generals around him. I could be wrong, but his public actions and words seem to have been meaningless when compared to the Regimes actions.

Will South Korea do anything about it at all if the PLA rolls in to Pyongyang? Or will China & South Korea do a Deal-deal?

Given North Korea's next in line we might want to pray for his health.

If looks could kill...

https://www.uptodate.com/contents/operative-mortality-after-coronary-artery-bypass-graft-surgery

Using registry data in the United States, the perioperative and in-hospital mortality rate after coronary artery bypass graft surgery (CABG) between 1997 and 2001 averaged about 1 percent for the lowest risk elective patients, and 2 to 5 percent for all patients. However, the risk is highly dependent upon comorbid disease, postoperative complications, and the hospital volume of CABG procedures

The soldiers in that picture are amazed having never seen that much food in their entire lives.

They are also amazed that North Korean Soylent Green could be fashioned into so many different shapes and textures.

Sounds like he had a pulmonary embolism which is generally fatal.

Nah, they’re just trying to hide them from the gluttonous eyes of Dear Leader, just in case the larder on the table doesn’t fill his appetite.

Well, the world is a better place without little Rocket Man. Now he will get to spend eternity with his father and grandfather and they can continue to worship each other with their father Satan.

I expressed sorrow for any doctor treating him when this story first broke. While it is easy for us to joke about something like this, there are real human beings in North Korea who live the most miserable existence on the planet. Imagine the terror of this man who knows that the life of his own family will be forfeit if he fails?

That would be far worse than my own death. With that said, if these stories are true there will be a lot of uncertainty about the stability of the regime if his sister is not accepted by the military. It is not a good situation either way.
