thefunkygibbons Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Hopefully that will cause the end of that failed experiment in N Korea, but I guess that will depend on the army Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB Saint Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Hmm - now they will be run by a twenty something who has probably had every whim his life catered for. Now he has a country to play with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eurosaint Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Would be nice if they had a 'Korean Spring' and the long suffering population were able to fight back for once !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Warrior Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Im saddened at the Loss of the World Greatest Golfer. Kim Jong also holds the record for the most holes in one . in a single round. I think it is 11. It is corroborated as his large team of body guards confirm this outstanding golfers ability Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danish Saint Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 One nutter replaced by his own son, who's even more nuts.... N.Korea is f*cked for even more years, sadly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viking Warrior Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Dune is there any truth in the rumour you will be going to Kim Jongs state funeral as the British goverment's representative? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buctootim Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 One nutter replaced by his own son, who's even more nuts.... N.Korea is f*cked for even more years, sadly. Might not be so. His oldest son was being groomed to take over, but he fell out of favour for sneaking off to Tokyo Disneyland on a false passport and saying he didnt think three generation of the same family should rule. Not much is known about the younger Kim .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxi_sopez Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 so sad we have lost two of the great golf personalities this year. Seve was really sad, now Kim. Hopefully he gets a mention at sports personality Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much is known about the younger Kim .... Did a bit of news-surfing after this.... seems the whole contry might collaps after this, so I'll imagine, whoever takes charge is going to do everything, if not more, to hold on to power... and in N.Korea, that means being more nuts than the previous guy.

Saintandy666 Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 It worries me who Kim Jong-un actually is. His father was an absolute tyrant and evil man, but he always stopped short of raising the confrontations too far, more posture at times than action. Hopefully the new guy starts to reform a bit(as if!), so the people of North Korea can break free from the Kim family's iron grip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
benjii Posted 19 December, 2011 Share Posted 19 December, 2011 Apparently Sven Goran Eriksson is the favourite to take over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
