If it turns out to be BS, sorry.
It's good that this disgusting creature has been put to rest, but I'm worried about his successor. What if he turns out to be even worse?
I really do feel for the people of North Korea. They are so brainwashed that they will be traumatized by this. The "Dear Leader" has not allowed them to experience anything other than his iron fist, and I don't see his son changing that.
I am afraid of instability in the Korean penisula. I certainly hope U.S. troops don't get involved.
Guido, it's about time you posted good news....

That's not a baseless fear. It's precisely what happened last time around. Funny how you can look at a country and its dictator and think to yourself "well, at least it couldn't get any worse" and find soon thereafter that it can get worse after all.

Yeah right!
Next thing you'll say is that Whitney Houston is dead.
Now Twitter rumors have him un-assasinated. Turns out he choked on a Wendy's triple with cheese, but someone there knew the hind lick maneuver. :o
