When Kim Jong-Il failed to appear for the 60th anniversary of the establishment of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, it gave impetus to the rumors that he was ill.
Now, the North Koreans have confirmed that Kim had a stroke. He probably underwent surgery.
That same news article quoted a Nork diplomat employing the usual communist veracity as saying that reports about Kim are
"worthless" and a "conspiracy plot," adding that Western media "have reported falsehoods before"
meaning of course that everything the West has reported thus far is most likely true and that Kim's condition is far more serious than they are letting on.
This comes on the heels of a serious debate about whether Kim Jong-Il is actually alive at all. Toshimitsu Shigemura of Waseda University in Japan has posited that Kim died in 2003, and that body doubles have taken his place ever since. This would sound like a ridiculous theory about anyone else; but we are talking here about North Korea, a hermit kingdom of potemkin villages, paranoia and intense secrecy.
Meanwhile, more good news:
WASHINGTON - North Korea has quietly built a long-range missile base that is larger and more capable than an older and well-known launch pad for intercontinental ballistic missiles, according to independent analysts relying on new satellite images of the site and other data. Analysts provided images of the previously secret site to The Associated Press.
Construction on the site on North Korea's west coast began at least eight years ago, according to Joseph S. Bermudez, Jr., senior analyst with Jane's Information Group, and Tim Brown with Talent-keyhole.com, a private satellite imagery analysis company. Bermudez first located the site in early spring and they have tracked its construction using commercial and unclassified satellite imagery.
"The primary purpose of the facility is to test," Bermudez told The Associated Press in an interview last week. A base capable of a long-range test could obviously be used in wartime to launch a missile that carried a warhead.

OK, Ms. Jackson (is this really is you leaving the above comment), this is as good a place as any to try to find out from you just what is going on with YOU, that is if you come back here to see if anyone responded to your comment. Could just be though it is one of the numerous websites YOU are leaving comments on asking to remove comments which appear to be your own! Now you are saying the comments are "false"? Uh, as Ricky Ricardo would say, I think you got some splanin'to do! Now why do I say this? Well, the comments you are asking to be removed (here and MANY places) sure do coincide with this article YOU wrote and then at the bottom did a wee bit of groveling.

You named a whole bunch of names there, then went back and replaced the names
with letters of the alphabet and xxxxx.
THEN at the bottom you edited the article claiming that it was stress put on you that caused you to put the names in there in the first place.
"This Article has been modified and certain information retracted. As a result of
the decision to modify this Article, It is also important that this step is
conveyed and is taken as a formal Apology issued by the Arthor to those members
of the Judiciary and State of New Jersey Office of the Attorney General,Bergen
County Prosecutor, and the certain Members of the Fort Dix NJ. who have been
completly and fully removed from reference entirely.
Please note that as a result of the attacks and targeting of the Author of this
Article, the original form of the Article was prepared as a direct result of
intentional infliction of stress by these individuals who work with Mark X in
the New Jersey Army national Guard some of whom hold dual positions with the
Office of the New Jersey Attorney General, Office of the Federal Judiciary
Magistrate System,and United States Attorney Deputized JAG Program, or who have
personal friendships with Members of the Fort Dix JAG Office that hold dual
employment status and or friendships with same. I look forward to a full
independent Federal Investigation of the Fort Dix NJ JAG Office shortly".

IF you come back here Ms. Jackson, you have the PERFECT chance to explain your rather bizarre heretofore unexplained behavior YOURSELF.
Just pretend you are a contestant on "To Tell the Truth"
Will the REAL Gwendolyn Jackson PLEASE STAND UP.
Ms. TVLegalNews, don't you think you should remove your own facebook page before you pepper the internet with requests to remove comments which are the SAME as those on your facebook page? (I am assuming you are the same person here)
