| Kim Jong-il's Second Son to Inherit Dictatorial Mantle | |
| 2005-09-28 | |
| So what's he gonna be called, like, Really Excellent Leader? North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has decided to pass the mantle of leadership of one of the worldâs most repressive regimes to his second son Kim Jong-chul (23), according to AERA magazine, a sister publication of Japan's Asahi Shimbun. Thanks, dad! Are the imported blonde hookers and the cognac part of the deal? In its Sept. 26 edition, AERA quotes an informed official as saying Kim Jong-ilâs mind was made up. Numerous sources said the last few months have seen a political education campaign on all levels of the Stalinist country including the workplace exalting Kim Jong-chul as the legitimate successor to his spiky-haired fatherâs personality cult. Such a campaign would be unimaginable without the direct blessing of the North Korean leadership. Leader-in-waiting Jong-chul is referred to as "the Commander" in these lectures. "The Commander"? That sucks! They got KCNA and all they can come up with is "The Commander"?? What kinda lameass shit is that? According to the magazine, Kim, who was born on Sept. 25, 1981, studied at an international school in Switzerland. He is reportedly such a big fan of the U.S. NBA that his doting father built basketball courts at his villas throughout North Korea. Jong-chul 's older brother Jong-nam (34) fell from grace after he was caught trying to enter Japan on a forged passport. ...and now... youuuuuuuuuuuuuurrrrr...Pyongyang Running Dogs!!! AERA said âthe Commanderâ could make an appearance in the memorial ceremony marking the 60th anniversary of the Workers Party of Korea on Oct. 10, likely to be a massive celebration provided North Korea's relationship with the U.S. improves. Maybe shoot 18 with pops after? Make sure you lose though, kid. Kimmies moody and Jong-nam hasn't been turned into Soylent Green yet. Shoot at least a 24 to be on the safe side.

| #5 I bet it's the same one as John Kerry attended. I just spent 1/2 an hr. researching their Swiss schools via Google; I came up empty on connecting a specific school to Kim Jong Chul. One of Kerry's Swiss schools was here, FWIW. |

| #3 I think this could turn into a knockdown drag-out fight between the two after dear old dad passes on. You got to wonder how long the Norks are willing to live with this leadership? Dear leader outlasted even my most optimistic predictions and I suspect that the hunger in North Korea is just for food. |
