Kim Jong-il is considered to be a ruthless dictator who stands accused of heinous crimes, maintains the world's fifth-largest military of a million men and hasn't backed down from his nuclear ambitions in the face of global opposition.
He is very vain about his height, wears platform shoes. Has his hair done so it makes him look taller. Khaki jumpsuits and sunglasses are what he always wears. He dines on an air-lifted lobster.
He orders troupe of female dancers to strip for guests and dines on the finest imported foods while most of his countrymen starve to death in his famine-plagued land.
Reported and broadcasted daily are his writings that praise his and his father's greatness.
He has lookalikes that had plastic surgery to look like him so they can pose as him.
The people call him 'Dear Leader' and celebrate his birthday every year with a designated holiday.
He is crazy like a fox they say. You do not want to cross him because the mildest acts of dissent can lead to punishment.
Some of the things he is reported to have been behind are:
1. bombing of a Korean Airlines jet in 1986
2. 1983 terrorist bombing in Myanmar
3. kidnapping generals, members of parliament and students from South Korea to both Koreas under communist rule.
4. Nuclear weapon testing

He is reported to torture, public executions, slave labour, and forced abortions and infanticides.


i found this very interesting. I did not know he was this crazy. This man sounds like another Hilter and yet he is not questioned. The article lists alot more of his crazy actions.
