Kim Jong Il Suffered a Stroke

President Kim Jong Il, North Korea’s “dear leader” (that’s the style he gave himself when taking office), is seriously ill. According to the New York Times, American intelligence says he might have suffered a stroke weeks ago. It’s unclear what will happen to the communist dictatorship Mr Kim cannot rule, but the best outcome for the people of North Korea would be an immediate collapse of the current regime. Even by socialist standards, few leaders have caused greater harm than Kim Jong Il.
