North Korea's mysterious leader Kim Jong-un has not been seen in public for 35 days and was not on a list of dignitaries at a celebration of the anniversary of the founding of the ruling Workers' Party on Friday, sparking speculation that the head of one of the world's most secretive countries is ailing or has been removed in a secret coup.
There has been rampant speculation that the leader is ill or is no longer in power. Unidentified sources tell South Korean reporters it may be gout, diabetes, or high blood pressure. A source Friday told Sky News that Kim suffered a pulled tendon during a military drill. There has been no confirmation.

Ten bucks says that he died of this pulled tendon 3 weeks ago.
In a ditch...wearing a blindfold.

The little riceball reached critical mass & imploded.
Always believed those lean & hungry Nork generals would simply feed his face until he croaked. Problem solved.

Yuri Andropov? I haven't heard that name in years. Just hearing it brings back a chuckle and images from Weekend at Bernies.

Yuri Andropov...
Weren’t there three in a row back then? I cannot remember the parade of leaders after Breshnev. But they got sick, and sick, and sick, and then George Bush would hop a plane to a funeral.

Brezhnev—Andropov—Chernenko—Gorby—Yanayev (I forgot him, he was in charge for two days!)

Exactly what came to my sick mind. He was pulling his tendon and is now suffering from “penis elbow”.

Yep. I had to look it up. Three Soviet head of state funerals from November 1982 to March 1985: Brezhnev (who took over from Nikita Khrushchev in October 1964), Andropov and the very forgettable Konstantin Chernenko, who lasted 13 months in office to Andropov's 15 months.
In any other U.S. Administration during the Cold War, this wouldn't have caused a ripple since our own leadership ranged from horrible (Carter) to merely mediocre (JFK, Ike, Truman, Nixon). But with Reagan in charge, even the relatively strong Gorby didn't survive.
To this day, the left gives him, not Reagan, credit for ending the Cold War. As if he had a choice.

They would have wheeled him out in a wheelchair to gather more sympathy for Dear Leader. I think he’s toast - no, wait, if he was toast either he or someone else would have eaten him.

I know. Isn’t that true. I recall telling my wife that meeting in NYC where Reagan, Bush, and Gorby met was like when I would get a new boss and the old boss would bring me to lunch to meet the new boss.
The handoff was clearly between Ronnie and George. Gorby was simply being told he did not get the promotion, but he was a valuable player nonetheless. Been there done that.
