Castro was about to die a couple years ago. Iran’s government was about to be overthrown. Hugo Chavez actually was overthrown for a couple of days and then regained power. The world will end in 2011 or 2012, depending on who you believe. I would put “North Korea is on the brink of collapse” along with these other headlines.
