re: Jong-il is scared and for good reason......there are chinks in his dictatorship. Those chinks will grow until they become cracks and eventually his regime will fall under its own weight.

You sort of remind me of the Florida Cubans... and they have been waiting a long time for Castro to bow out.


IMO there are more chinks in Jong-il's armor than there are in Castro's. Castro is smart enough to give his people enough to eat; to provide them with universal education, to protect them during hurricanes and to allow foreigners into the country. In other words, he is a somewhat benevolent dictator.........some Cubans actually care for him. Jong-il is an insecure, ruthless tyrant. I may well be wrong but I see a difference between the two.

Besides, the primary issue in that exchange with Ten is what do we do about Jong-il. Frankly, I am against invading NK.
