“Planes Didn’t Carry Nuclear Weapons”
12 September 2008

ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Later, Chavez called the U.S. the “empire” as he addressed troops at the christening of a new coast guard patrol ship.

He dismissed comparisons to the Cold War but mentioned Cuba while saying he had been reviewing flight theory in a simulator in hopes of flying one of the Russian planes.

Addressing his close friend Fidel Castro, Chavez said: “I’m going to fly a Tu-160. Fidel, I’m going to fly low past you there.””

Distress over Postponed Terror Sponsor Delisting Led to Kim Jong-il’s Collapse

Yonhap News

Quoting Chinese government sources, Tokyo Shimbun reported on Sep.t 15 that Kim Jong-il collapsed because he was distressed that U.S. postponed the delisting of N. Korea from terror sponsor list.

The sources reportedly said, “He is alert enough to take charge, but still experience impaired limb movement, requiring some period of rehabilitation.”

The sources explained that he collapsed on Aug. 14, and suffered from both cerebral infarction and cerebral hemorrhage, that is, some blood vessels blocked and others ruptured in his brain. He has been extremely tense until Aug. 11 when U.S. delisting of N. Korea from terror sponsor was expected.

As soon as Kim went down, Chinese government sent five specialists. He is (currently) recovering at Bong-hwa Clinic on the suburb of Pyongyang, after undergoing operation, the paper reported.
