North Korean dictator Kim Jong-il died after flying into a fit of rage when he was told that a major dam project had sprung a leak, it emerged today.

My Comment: He was having a heart attack .... but still gave out the orders for punishment. Call me skeptical, but I have doubts that such a scenario played out.

From Newsweek:

Bargaining with Pyongyang is pointless. Regime change is the only option; here's how to make it work.

My Comment: My father had a very serious stroke .... and he did not need an operation. But the stroke left him partially paralyzed and immobilized. Kim Jong Il had a stroke .... and like all strokes they are always serious.
