Dead??? I didn't even know Kim Jong was il

The years most hilarious post-heading aside, it seems that Christmas has come early for the people of North Korea as the evil dictator and long-suspected extra terrestrial Kim Jong-il [pictured left] died earlier in the week.

Despite this great news, we must err on the side of caution. Jong-il's death may not plunge the country into chaos as he had begun grooming his son, Kim Jong-un to succeed him and placed him in a high-ranking position. It remains to be seen however if the young whelp has had sufficient time to consolidate a power base and form the necessary alliances required to rule the troubled country.

Jong-il's death could set back efforts by the west to get Pyongyang to abandon its nuclear weapons ambitions. Concerns are also high that Kim Jong-un may feel he needs to prove himself by precipitating a crisis or displaying his swagger on the international stage.

The "mourners" in N.Korea must pretend to wail at the loss of their "beloved" leader or they'll be shot.

Whatever the future; this was a great time to vacation in North Korea. Pure coincidence I swear...

Bin Laden, Gadaffi,Micheal Jackson and now Kim Jong Il, it's been a busy couple of years Colonel.

I must insist that you lay off the few remaining batshit crazy dictators that are left. They are becoming an endangered species with you around.

The public simply don't know who to be afraid of anymore.

It amuses me that you included Micheal Jackson if your list of "batshit crazy dictators".

"The public simply don't know who to be afraid of anymore" - the answer to this is, of course, those who partake in theatrical scaremongering.

temicat, why not include MJ?, he was the King of Pop after all, like most dictators, he had a cult like following and was someone that you'd be afraid to leave your kids with... unless of course that you disagree with me and would leave your kids in the hands of other dictators like Gadaffi, now surely you wouldn't do a thing like that now would you?, would you?

Sigh, I guess it's not all bad, we still have Maddinnerjacket in Iran, and Hugo is still causing chaos in South America and of course the Castro Brothers are doing well of the coast of Florida.

Giant North Korean soldier - can the Colonel take him?

As an expert in the deadly propaganda art of Photoshop, I imagine that the Colonel could quite literally cut any giant North Korean Soldier down to size or erase him entirely from existance for that matter...
