The Walking Dead

Nope, not dead yet. Rumours to the contrary. Can't put a good man down. Much less a beastly tyrant. Much to the agony of North Korea's starving populace. The country that cannot feed its people can, will and does find the requisite funding for nuclear warheads, space rocketry, satellite technology. First things first, after all; one must establish priorities and abide by them.

Daddy Kim Il-Sung did, and look what happened to him. "Eternal president", that's what. The love and adoration of his people. Imagine, dead since 1994, but president of the glorious Republic of North Korea, and president he shall remain forevermore. Hero of heroes. Who were Marx, Engels and Lenin after all, but enablers establishing North Korea's timeless autocracy of totalitarian rule.

Kim Jong-Il lives! He even applauded gravely, as the occasion demanded, as he was re-elected chairman - unanimously - by his parliament as darling leader during the 12th Supreme People's Assembly in Pyongyang. His 'immortal exploits' and 'dynamic leadership' carrying the country forward into the future.

Presumably with a rather diminished population, starving off as they are, but still with the stupidly apprehensive eyes of the world jealously fixed on the glorious Republic's authentic scientific and technological advances, second to none.

So powerful that the world trembles before them.
