TOKYO (AFP) – North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il may have had a second stroke in October that has affected his speech, a Japanese news report said Tuesday.
US intelligence received information that Kim, 66, had another stroke in late October, Tokyo Broadcasting System (TBS) said on its website, citing an unnamed American intelligence source based in South Korea.
According to the information, Kim was receiving treatment at an exclusive Pyongyang hospital for a first stroke he suffered in mid-August, TBS said.
"However, he had the second stroke in late October, which caused him difficulty moving his left hand and leg, and has affected his speech," TBS said.
The US source, however, was not clear about the severity of the symptoms, TBS said.
A South Korea unification ministry spokesman said he had no information to confirm the TBS report.
Kim's health is the subject of intense speculation because he has not publicly nominated a successor to run the impoverished and nuclear-armed nation.

Good. Hopefully the Dear Leader will be worm food ASAP.

Good news!

Keep-em coming!
As they say in baseball, “Three strokes and you’re out!”
A fall down 562 steps?
illness can hit anyone at any time.....no one is protected...no one is immune......
Kim was just trying to follow the US Presidential polls. Now Kim’s Il.
isn’t there a fluff piece that can be run on Obama instead of wasting precious column inches on this supposed “Dear Leader”?
Even Dear leader? I guess demi-god’s aren’t what they used to be.
I’m sure that with his first non-stroke, his feet could feel the heat of hell, now the heat will be up to his hips. By, by dear leader, the fires of hell will be your abode for eternity.
Perhaps the Dear Leader should’nt watch so many porno movies whilst playing with himself. Woodies are not helpful to a bad heart!
