Japanese newspapers are reporting that diplomats in North Korea have been ordered to be on standby for some sort of major announcement and that there are plans to temporarily ban foreigners from entering the country.
Something's up, just what isn't clear. Speculation ranges from an announcement of Kim's death to proclamation of a coup d'etat. So far nobody knows nothin'.
Kim hasn't been seen in public since August. The government recently released a video showing Kim inspecting some facility but the trees in the background were in full leaf which Gwynne Dyer notes means the video wasn't taken anytime recently.
Off topic - What is up with james curran and his poll? Can anyone say, anger management issues? K.
ReplyDeleteI really don't know but James is certainly wound up right now. I hope he can get over this pretty soon.

ReplyDeleteHere's what I think, Anon. I think anyone feeble-minded enough to be swayed by the likes of Lorne Grunter should find another blog to post his drivel remarks.
ReplyDeleteKim-Jong Il has undergone sex reassignment surgery and will hence forth be know as....Kim.
ReplyDeleteOk, a little levity is needed today, things are just to serious around the blogsphere..
I agree Mike and I thank you for it - I think?
ReplyDeleteIt's not what Lorne Gunter said. It's what all the scientists are now saying.
ReplyDeleteWe're in for 30 years of global cooling.
You ready for it?
I'm in South Korea and the talk here is: Kim, Jongt-il had a brain hemorrhage. His second son who will take over the reins is in Switerland where he is winding down his political science studies. He has been in Switerland for some time now. The announcement could have something to do with the new acting head. Morris
