Latest news just half an hour ago from UPI:
(EXCERPT)
Kim Jong Un may have left Pyongyang and could be sheltering in an undisclosed location on North Korea’s eastern coast, according to multiple press reports.
The North Korean leader’s absence triggered wild speculation regarding the state of his health this week, following unconfirmed reports Kim was in critical condition after receiving heart surgery.
Kim may have been evacuated to the coastal city of Wonsan, Kangwon Province, where he may have been providing field guidance at a resort construction site, South Korean news service Newsis reported Friday, citing Seoul’s national intelligence sources.
According to Newsis, movement has been observed among “dedicated vehicles” for Kim that suggest he may have been evacuated from Pyongyang. A special train for Kim’s use was stationed in Wonsan, but Kim’s private plane remained in Pyongyang, the report says.
“Chaos and human suffering”? — has North Korea ever experienced this before?
Kim Jong Un’s Death Will Lead To ‘Chaos, Human Suffering’...
im Jong Un’s Death Will Lead To ‘Chaos, Human Suffering’...
trump said yesterday that CNN relied on old reports about him
Seeing a lot of discussion that some of his close people got wuhan flu.
Good chance he is trying to recover from it.
If all is well it seems like he would have made an appearance.
Make up your mind which units you want to use, author.
She looks like an alien....
Lots of speculation about Kim’s whereabouts......movement of his train could just be a diversion. Time will tell eventually.
How exactly could it be worse?
Everyone who is not in the employ of the government is basically starving.
They have no human rights.
The poorest of Americans make more in a couple weeks than the average NK person makes in a year.
Most NK’s have no electricity.
How exactly could it get worse. Plague?
The NK government makes the Iranian look good.
Has North Korea ever known anything else?
Does anyone ever recover from being ‘brain dead?’
Have they fed his hapless Surgeon to the dogs, yet?
*SHUDDER*
Maybe, but I saw no convincing case that chaos will result when he dies. It’s possible but just as likely the next iron fisted dictator will take over.
“The obese Kim weighs more than 300 lbs, stands 172 cm tall and relentlessly smokes up to four packs of cigarettes a day”
Is “packs” Imperial or Metric? It would be the tie-breaker. Meanwhile, I can’t believe Kim is in poor health with those stats. Shocking.
I was watching a YouTube analysis of this and they shot this theory down. North Korea is Patriarchy to the Nth degree. It is a purely male driven society. Women in positions of apparent power are more or less puppets for show.
It’ll be a Military jockey for power and who comes out on top is who has the best ties with China. China already has significant influence and bribed interest of the NK Military. You’ll see Chinese troops stacked on the border stopping the attempt of exodus, but few troops will be inside the border. The influence and money is already there in force.
Which differs from current day-to-day life how exactly?
