[...] Obama’s racked up a quite, uh, impressive list of endorsements over the course of his campaign. Fidel Castro has his name on the list, as well as the US Communist Party. But Kim Jong Il? Who would have thought North Korea would be waving Obamamerica flags? [...]

[...] It’s nearly unanimous; terrorist groups and cruel dictators have made a clear choice in the US presidential election: OneFreeKorea – Obama Gets Another Unwanted Endorsement. The Chosun Sinbo, the mouthpiece of North Korea’s Japanese front organization Chongryon and often for the North Korean regime itself, has announced its preference for Obama over McCain, whom it calls “a variant of Bush” and “nothing better than a scarecrow of neoconservatives,” which is a bit odd considering that the Bush Administration’s giveaway diplomacy is better for Kim Jong Il than even Clinton’s awful performance.

Iâ€™m a dude, dumbass.

Well, there are perils in making one’s self ambiguous, except for the part about being an embarrassment. No ambiguity there.

Peace, ladies!

Joshua, I do agree it is impossible to predict the end of Kim’s regime in the resons you stated. If it is now, next year, five years or ten years, it is not a matter of if, but a matter of when. His state cannot sustain itself like it is now forever. The main point I was trying to make is, Kim Jong Il has not assigned a successor yet and time is ticking away to make a propaganda story stick. A sudden worship campaign cannot work in the current state the DPRK is in. Sure, they can force it, but privately, people are trying to find the next meal and ideology along with a father figure is crumbling away. I mean it is common sense in my opinion to assume it is becoming a joke.

With that said, this is all happening without Obama’s or McCain’s help. Sure, they can have a hawkish or engagement policy, but Kim Jong Il will do what he wants to do despite what any administration does. I believe the DPRK will do just fine failing on its own. Why pay for it?

I hope you’re right, Jack, but how many people staked their reputations on similar assumptions in 1994? Earlier this year, I assigned a high probability that Kim Jong Il’s regime would fall this year. Unfortunately, it seems so far that he’s managing to feed his elite and at least some of his military while letting everyone else starve. The food crisis will probably be even worse next year, but a massive influx of American aid could still preserve the regime, just as it did when China and South Korea propped it up for the last decade.
