North Korea

I really don’t know what to make of this odd story out of North Korea.

Oops. North Korea went ahead with its rocket launch, I guess in hopes of forcing the world's hand or some other nonsense. Two big problems. First the rocket disintegrated after launch, and then came the condemnation from the world.

The NYT is reporting that North Korean State television has reported that Kim Il Jong has died. More details as they become available.
