SEOUL, March 6 -- North Korea has deployed tanks and other weapons around its leader Kim Jong-il's residences in Pyongyang to fortify them against a possible revolt spurred by the ongoing anti-government protests in the Middle East, a Seoul source said Sunday.
"In response to a question asking for confirmation of reports that ever since the collapse of the Mubarak regime (in Egypt), Kim Jong-il has placed tanks and many other weapons around his residences for fear of a similar situation, (the intelligence official) said that that is how he knows it," the lawmaker said. The 69-year-old North Korean leader is known to own four residences in Pyongyang alone. Asked whether the pro-democracy rebellions in the Middle East are having any effect on North Korea, the NIS official said they have had "practically none," according to the lawmaker. The NIS official, however, did say that the Pyongyang regime was tightening its grip on North Korean embassy staff returning from abroad for fear that they would spread news of the Middle Eastern crisis to others around them, the lawmaker said.

| #2 And just think - you have to be a loyal party member to even live in Pyongyang. How much do you think he's loved in the countryside? |

| #1 Year 2011-2020/2025 is the gener "MAKE-OR-BREAK" PERIOD FOR ANY DESIRED PRO-US-VS-ANTI-US OWG-NWO. US GLOBAL POWER + INFLUENCE is going to be challenged on a scale not seen since before WW2, or in the altern the CUBAN MISSLE CRISIS + 1973 YOM KIPPUR WAR [US-vs-USSR oer the Israeli mil threat to Cairo]. AGain, NORTH KOREA wants to stop starving + modernize + unify? wid South Korea, while Rising China wants to SOLE BASE RIGHTS ALA "FIRST ISLAND CHAIN". KIMMIE + REGIME [+ DPRK/ Korean Commie-Soc Movement] = LIBYUH'S UNCLE MUAMMAR = WANT TO STAY AS ACTIVE, INFLUENTIAL, + ESPEC "INDISPENSABLE/VITAL" REGIONAL, GLOBAL POWERBROKERS AMAP ALAP UNTIL THE DAY THEY DIE. They don't want to resign + then politely quietly disappear in geriatric retirement or obsolescence as vee PERSONAL, IDEO LEGACIES. Put another way, Muammar want to keep Libyuh modern, potent + hip in his view, KIMMIE WANTS TO FINALLY MAKE NORTH KOREA THE SAME. Muammar want to keep his fellow Muslims in RADICAL ISLAM from pushing Libyuh BACKWARD IN TIME, whereas KIMMIE WANTS TO PUSH NORTH KOREA FORWARD IN TIME [validate NK Socialism + keep "North Korea for North Koreans/Koreans only]. Year 2011 may as well be 1910, or prior, or 1950 for the DPRK. |
