Kim Jong-Il portraits are disappearing from Pyongyang. Let’s not get carried away and think he’s got a fatal illness or anything. He’s probably taking a cue from one of his adoring imitators. You know, he’s probably finally gotten a little embarassed about all the portraits and statues that “the people” have “demanded” be erected as expressions of their “love” for his “enlightened governance.”
Perhaps he’ll soon pen a glorious spiritual work and I’ll have to start calling him “The Turkmenbashi of NE Asia.” Or maybe “Nuclear Turkmenbashi.” That’s kind of cooler.
