North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il is shown (obviously alive) on North Korean last night, (Korean time), on 17 November 2004, recently inspecting (date unclear) the North Korean Peoples Army "Unit 754".
However, as South Korean TV reporters from YTN-TV in the voice-over in this clip note, the traditional Korean-language title of "Great Leader" is absent from the usual script.
This is the first time that such an honorific title is missing, when describing Kim Jong-il, in their national press.
The video clip starts with the South Korean TV female announcer for 30 seconds who introduces a very short file clip showing how North Korean TV (male announcer, note the NK communist lapel pin) had referred to Kim Jong-il in the past; then shifts to yesterday's North Korean TV news broadcast, including the still photo shots of Kim apparantly inspecting a KPA unit recently (cold weather).
The video can be seen at the link URL above, and by then hitting the
on that page,
or here (cut and paste, view and go to that spot on the page, below Kim's photo, and view) at 300k speed:
maybe he gave himself a promotion to "the dumbest dictator on the planet"
anyong haseyo!
lets see what happens. lets watch the fun.
My first bet would be that North Korea is still playing the part of the crazy Aunt in the attic...and that this is merely part of a ruse on their part to convince the world that they are so crazy that they need to be handled with diplomatic kid gloves.
I'm so Ronery / So Ronery / So Ronery and Sadry Arone / There's No One / Just me Onry / Sitting on my rittle throne / I work very hard and make up great plans / but nobody listens, no one understands / Seems rike no one takes me Serious-RY / And so I'm Ronery / A rittle ronery / Poor rittle me / There's no one I can rerate to / fell rike a bird in a cage / Its kinda sirry / but not rearry / because its firring my body with rage / I'm the smartest most clever most physically fit / but not one at all seems to re-a-rize it / Maybe someday they'll all notice meeee / And until then, I'll be ronery / Yeah, a rittle ronery / Poor rittle me...
Could it be that the North Korean military realized that their fearless leader was a nut job who was going to get a lot of people killed?
You don't mean past tense, right?
Maybe this has to do with Bush's reelection. Maybe the generals got to him and said, "We're F*****d".
Anyong Hashimnika to you. Hopefully the we dae han jackass in chief will get a chong-ahl through his rotten mawri soon!
Well, taking down his pictures HAS to be more than his favorite concubine kicking off......and now this...something is going on....
I always like reading your posts--What do YOU think is going on?
as in: "how North Korean TV had referred to Kim Jong-il in past broadcasts" (gulp, yikes, sorry, LOL)
However, as you well know they pull a lot of tricks and lies. I know we are keeping a close eye on these tricksters and especially the The Great Trickster, a real trouble-maker, with or without the honorific titles!
komappta! hopefully, that will be. we can hope at least.

I have several conflicting theories. If I had more information, like a lot of folks here, I'd come to some stronger conclusions for you. Sorry. Very murky indeed.
This coming on the heels of Bush's reelection is interesting...
Arafat dead.
Iran blinks.
Now this...
Very interesting.
"I'm so roneree, yes I'm roneree..." (team america)
Well, please keep us informed--The Peterson trial is over and there 's nothing much to compete with it except this..LOL ;^)
