The irony, it just writes itself.
I’m loving the Seinfeld references by the way.
TRL,
Rule #1 about accidents involving senior Asian State officials: There are no accidents.
If something happens to Kim-Jong UN without a true replacement in the family then more likely all hell will break loose on the DMZ.
I heard that all of those North Korean rocket scientists secretly hated the guy. I bet they did it. All of them.
