The Head Nork keeled over dead

Yes, the old crazy Nork is dead…..finally.

You can go here and watch the Norks boo hoo their eyes out over it.  What gets me is people actually believe that video is real. Eye rolling smile People… It is propaganda. Heck, even Bill O’Reilly was smart enough to figure that out!

Either way, they say his kid is as crazy as his Father, if not worse. However, “the Stash” says that Nork’s Military might not be to welcoming:

North Korean dictator Kim Jong Il’s death opens a period of intense danger and risk, but also potentially enormous opportunity for America and its allies. Kim’s health had obviously been poor for some time, and his regime has worked to ensure an orderly transition to his son, Kim Jong Eun. The Kim family and its supporters, with everything obviously at stake, will work strenuously to convey stability and control. Indeed, the official North Korea news agency has already referred to Jong Eun as “the great successor to the revolutionary cause.”

But the loathsome Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea (DPRK) is not a constitutional monarchy like Britain. While DPRK founder Kim Il Sung was powerful enough to impose his son, no guarantees exist that the North’s military, the real power, will meekly accept rule by his utterly inexperienced grandson.

Under the surface in Pyongyang, the maneuvering has almost certainly already begun. There is no reason whatever to believe that opinion among the military leadership will be unanimous, either to support or oppose the regime’s succession plan. In fact, the early reports are that Kim Jong Il’s death went undisclosed publicly for days, perhaps indicating a power struggle already under way. Many generals may simply not accept that Leader 3.0 is competent or merits their support.

While an authoritarian DPRK state, armed with nuclear, chemical and biological weapons, is a threat regionally and globally, a fractured DPRK, leaderless and perhaps descending into civil war, is an even greater threat. The prospect of conflict among various military and other security forces, which like the Kim family also have everything on the line, is real. Control over the weapons of mass destruction and other key assets (missile launch sites and storage facilities, communications facilities, the loyalty of major military formations such as the artillery, and armor massed near the borders) will be essential.

I would head on over and read the rest of that, if I were you. Hopefully, John Bolton is wrong. Because we just finished one war, we don’t need another one. Although, I doubt that anything big will become of it. The Nork’s are not going to risk ruining everything that the previous two leaders built up.

Either way it should be interesting to watch.
