Kim Jong Un’s former classmates say he really is ‘dangerous, unpredictable, prone to violence’

The U.S. government reached alarming conclusions about the personal character of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un based on interviews with people who knew him when he was a student in Switzerland, former U.S. Secretary of State for East Asian and Pacific Affairs Kurt Campbell revealed on CNN over the weekend.
The official U.S. assessment of Kim's character is perhaps not, on its face, very surprising. After all, the North Korean leader, like his father, certainly gives the impression of a wild-eyed despot who appears to buy into his own highly official cult of personality. But North Korea-watchers have long debated whether this is merely a pose, a performance calculated to rally North Koreans and intimidate the outside world. This assessment suggests that Kim's antics are not entirely about rational decision-making but are at least in part driven by a personality just as crazy as it appears.

...no sh!t little beaver.
A well placed drone would take care of this jerk....
...well, why not?...who is going to care? Putin may do it himself if Un gets crazier...
....oh well, stuff happens...
Kim and Norks are just 3rd class bullies. I see very little reason why we haven’t kicked their ass in the past.
I think those two have a homosexual relationship
Does that moron know that the evil moron just snuffed out his uncle?
Now that is some real news.
I BET GETTING A LOT OF SWIRLIES MADE HIM THAT WAY...
“Not sure of “amature” is a play on words, or you mean “amateur.” “
I try not to play with words. Too frickin’ dangerous. It was a boo-boo. Or, possibly a bieu-bieu.
I want see if Chia Chub get call to principal office those records I think safe to say Chia Chub was disruptive influence among his classmates
Can you imagine that poor principal phone call back to Pyrongnag
Have assessments of foreign intelligence services of Soetoro’s character ever leaked? Undoubtedly they know his “birth certificate” and “draft registration” are forgeries. Undoubtedly they know about Man’s Country. They probably know where he was born, and who his father was.
My guess is...”Setting the stage”
I sure am glad nobody in the top echelons of the US government falls into those categories!
We have a lot of nukes still - but fewer all the time, so I suppose we are safe enough, no?
Lovely, and Kerry doesn’t see why the Norks having nukes is an issue. What a vainglorious buffoon! [Steyn, you are a genius!]
Oh, he’s an MSNBC leftist!
At least the kid is a member in good standing of the “bad haircut league’...
These NORK generals best start thinking about self-preservation. If chia-head is willing to off his uncle, then nobody is safe. Start considering shoving a division up Kim Jong Un’s behind while he’s watching Mickey Mouse cartoons. But this time when you round up Kim Jong Un’s secret police, kill them all. That’s where Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg made his fatal mistake in allowing the Gestapo to live. He should have killed them all.
Rodman is an interesting character. His appearance is far worse than most pro athletes, but he is a little sharper.
