Korea: What if we just left?

[WarBlade]

Finding credible info in Kim Jong Il is tricky: you have to weed out the hyperbole, image and hype from sparse amounts of facts.

I noticed. There seem to be two extremes evident in the small amount of information I read trough earlier; one refering to the man as "Dr Evil" (in a James Bond reference) and the other praising his abilty as a dark horse stepping up to the task of leadership in a hostile global political scene and succeeding. Ferreting out the middle ground between a mud slinging match of adjectives and so forth proved to be a rather nose-wrinkling experience.

Sort of like Bill Clinton or Brittany Spears, I suppose. :P  Will the reall Willy please stand up?  Well, I suppose it would near Brittany . . .

Interestingly, I managed to track down a USA Today source (since such was mentioned) and instantly saw a parallel with other sensationalist media. It came across in roughly the same light as Dodi and Diana scandals etc. ie audience must be really bored for this rubbish.

What he is not is he in in no way a "standard world leader."  Standard approaches don't work with him.

Yep. B) No argument there.
