| North Korean leader A source familiar with North Korea said Kim Jong-un ordered officials in January to remove anyone caught misbehaving during the mourning period for Kim Jong-il. "We have information that an assistant chief of the General Staff Department was arrested and shot by firing squad on charges of sexual harassment during the mourning period," the source added. Pudgy's trying to get American feminists to cream in their pants, isn't he? The General Staff Department takes orders directly from Kim Jong-un in wartime and commands the entire North Korean military. There are six or seven assistant chiefs under Gen. Ri Yong-ho, the chief of General Staff. It remains unclear which assistant chief was purged. A high-ranking government official here said, "To my knowledge, an assistant chief of the Ministry of the People's Armed Forces was also put in front of a firing squad early this year for being drunk during the mourning period." Kim Sung-min of Free North Korea Radio, a former captain in the North Korean army, recalled that Kim Jong-il also carried out a bloody purge after the death of his father Kim Il-sung in the name of restoring public order. "There is a strong chance that Kim Jong-un is doing exactly what his father did," he said.

| #2 A "QUIET RETIREMENT" for the Generals, etal. was anything but. As per FREEREPUBLIC ARTICS, apparently Jong-un had DPRK Army Mortar crews train by using "dissenters" as intended targets in live-fire exercises. |

| #1 KJ-un, I told u to call me, and you never did. Now I hear that you're purging again...That can be so unhealthy; especially being as phat as we are...(Don't get me started!) Let's try it again my little, squared-away Kim-chi bucket. We can go see the Phat Boi movie and "re-start" this bad-boy! Chaz Bono |
