there has to be a peaceful resolution. the goal should be to only have a positive impact on quality of life.
We should all keep our fingers crossed that the brainwashing of the long suffering North Korean people doesn't extend to such a degree in the NK military.
A day of mourning for leftists: Cuba Declares 3-Day Mourning Period For Kim Jong Il The Cuban government will observe a three-day mourning period beginning Tuesday to honor the death of North Korean autocrat Kim Jong Il. For the duration of the mourning period, public buildings and military installations will fly the Cuban flag at half-mast, according to Cuban state media. As two of the few remaining Communist countries, Cuba and North Korea maintain close ties based on shared ideology. On Monday, the day after news of Kim Jong Il’s death of a heart attack at age 69 was reported, the United Nations General Assembly voted 123 -16 to criticize what it referred to as North Korea’s “systematic, widespread and grave violations of human rights” — violations that allegedly include public executions, arbitrary detention, the use of the death penalty for political reasons and restrictions on the right to travel within the country. Cuba was one of the 16 countries to vote against the non-binding resolution. There were 51 absentions. The leftwing Daniel Ortega administration in Nicaragua did not go so far as to declare an official period of mourning, but did offer its condolences to the fallen Communist leader. “We have wishes for the continuity of the process that the Korean people and its government are living, a process to further build peace and prosperity for all families in that country,” Nicaraguan government spokeswoman Rosario Murillo said, according to Prensa Latina, Cuba’s state-run wire service.

Remember watching a national geographic documentary on North Korea. Found a link to it on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mxLBywKrTf4 If you have time and are interested in learning more about North Korea this will open your eyes quite a bit. I do pray that North Korea will open up and let loose the tight grip they have in controlling their people's lives. Yet, in understanding how Kim Jong Il, works he most likely picked the son that would best mimic his own ideologies.
Maybe it is shocking to you but Americans are the ones that are brainwashed and look what USA military have actually done...

Media control And the fact that they're accustomed to a dictatorship. I guess they liked him due to the fact that he wasn't willing to bend over the Western influences? Who doesn't like standing up against people they might view as "bullies"?
Damn, watching that is painful. Makes you feel sorry for these people to be so thoroughly brainwashed. http://kimjongildroppingthebass.tumblr.com/
Yep, we are brainwashed. We are the ones who believe that our "dear leader" did an uncountable number of impossible feats, strong arms the rest of the world into aiding our nation, and will not read anything that's from another country because we believe that it is radioactive.
All hail the U.N.! http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/12/28/us-korea-north-un-idUSTRE7BR13920111228 U.N. lowers flag to half-staff for Kim funeral (Reuters) - U.N. offices around the world lowered their flags to half-staff to mark the funeral of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il on Wednesday in a move the world body said was routine but which prompted objections from some human rights activists. In New York, where the flag outside U.N. headquarters was lowered, spokesman Eduardo del Buey said the gesture had been requested by Pyongyang's U.N. mission but was normal for the funeral of any head of state. "It's a matter of protocol," he said. North Korea is a full member of the 193-nation organization. But UN Watch, a Geneva-based advocacy group, said the U.N. human rights message was "at serious risk of being blurred today" because of the honoring of Kim, who died on December 17. "Today should be a time for the U.N. to show solidarity with the victims - the millions of North Koreans brutalized by Kim's merciless policies of starvation, torture and oppression - and not with the perpetrator," the group's executive director, Hillel Neuer, said in a statement. Last Thursday, the U.N. General Assembly granted a request from North Korea and held a few moments of silence for Kim, although Western delegations boycotted it. North Korea's U.N. mission made a similar request to the 15-nation Security Council, but Western diplomats said it was rejected. "We didn't think it would be appropriate," one diplomat said. Pyongyang is under Security Council sanctions due to Kim's nuclear weapons program, which Western officials say ate up huge sums of money that could have been used to help feed North Korea's starving population.
