As outsiders try to figure out why North Korean leader Kim Jong Un , they're focusing on a couple things. According to NPR's Frank Langfitt:
— There seems have been "a lot of genuine personal dislike" between Kim and Jang Song Thaek, the uncle and until this week North Korea's second most powerful man.
Kim may have been "angry that his uncle disrespected him," . According to North Korea's official news agency, Jang clapped "half-heartedly" when Kim was elected vice chairman of the country's central military commission.

Anyone remember how the Libtards always go into a hissy fit when the Republicans do not applaud during Hussein’s state of the union speeches?

He was killed because he had been approached as a go between by the CIA with a “what if your nephew has an accident” scenario and the aforementioned nephew found out.

If it makes liberals feel better to believe this was over hand-clapping, or lack of it, let them treasure their illusions.

It was the same when Stalin gave a speech. There was always a long thunderous ovation because no one in the audience wanted to be the first one to stop clapping.

They executed a top rank military guy for not mourning hard enough when papa died.

Considering the immediate reaction of China, I think he was a spy for China.
