Apparently the "Dear Leader" could've been dead months or even years ago.

I like this age we're living in. All those dictators that came into power thirty, forty or fifty years ago are now dropping like flys. Yep! time to flush away all the stupid shitheads that have plagued the human gene pool for too long. Although if another dictator is made I doubt he's going to last anywhere near as long. The world's views and policies are changing far too rapidly for any of their kind to survive for any real length of time.

I read somewhere that his son hasn't been given the power yet because he's inexperienced, and that a regent is taking the position, so he can fully be a cult of personality dictator like his father and grandfather before him.

Another? The Korean War technically never ended. South and North Korea are still at war. Its pretty much an extended ceasefire thing. Ever seen pics of the border? That shit is tense.

Yep. Half the Arab world has lost its leaders and is pretty much in anarchy, that evil midget is dead, and Panetta said Iran would have nuclear weaponry within a year. Good times.

LOL! We had plenty to worry about when we were kids. It was called the Cold War. Both sides' fingers on that biiiiiiiiig shiny red button that would bring about Armageddon. and yes by the 90's the cold war had ended, but the weapons were, and are still there.

As a kid I didnt give no shit bout no cold wars. My worries  involved action figures and Legos. Not to mention I never really watched news as a kid either, so i didnt know much of what was going on.

Ignorance is bliss, they say, and sadly, is true. >_>

Bah! You call that worry? How about growing up in Jerusalem during the Second Intifada (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second_Intifada) and constantly being paranoid about your bus blowing up?
Meh. But I guess that's not so bad. Some people are much less fortunate. Be thankful about what you have, I guess.  :-X

Nice. Those boneheads can't seem to "get it" through their thick skulls that violence begets violence.

I think that's a sentiment that applies to the world as a whole.
