I can see Kim spinning the train wreck into "failed US attack" or "failed US assasination attempt."

Those poor people. I mean, Kim's a psychopath, but the folks who got burned aren't likely to have level 1 trama centers and burn units available...

Mona I agree with both paragraphs.

May I add, what a crappy way to die, and then be used as a propoganda tool. They are in my prayers.

North Korea's version of Elvis...Kim Jong-IL ...is most likely gonna spin this for all its worth ...but heres a few thoughts...if this was indeed an attempt on Kim's life it was a very bad one...if this was indeed an acident..then it's a darn shame....but heres one no one thought of yet...what if China decided to teach the nutcase a lesson....lord knows Beijing isnt exactly too happy with the thought of NK nukes so close to them...one reason this might be true and I stess might..is the fact that NK still gets a load of aid from china...and cutting them off even for a short time would prove a point...some might even say this could push NK to attack...sorry but without a dedicated supply from china, it would be hopeless in say a few months for NK......just a thought

We also will frown upon those who suggest that we ban other individuals for voicing unpopular opinions, should those opinions be voiced in a civil and respectful manner.
