Silver lining
The dystopia that is North Korea has long been ruled by the Kim dynasty
as a private fiefdom.
Word is, the present ruler of the Hermit Kingdom, Kim Jong-il, now
regards his younger son, Kim Jong-un, as his heir apparent. The bad
news is that democracy in any form appears not to be on the agenda
there for the foreseeable future.
The good news is the “Dear Leader” is, in fact, looking ahead to a
peaceful succession, not contemplating some nightmarish nuclear
showdown before he leaves the scene feet first.
