The 12th Memorial Day of Deceased Kim Il Sung… Kim Jong Il, Why Did He Disappear?

Well this is one confusing hash of paranoia and cultural miscommunication:

"On the 8th, (North) Korean Central Broadcasting did not report any news about Kim Jong Il’s visit to Gumsusan Memorial Palace to cherish the memory of deceased Kim Il Sung. It is very exceptional because after the death of Kim Il Sung, on every midnight 8 July, North Korea broadcasting media had reported Kim Jong Il’s visit to the Palace."

Read the whole thing. Draw your own conclusions...

Of course there's the obvious answer. The Great Leader has risen from the dead to save the nation.

Or that those military folks are dispersed to their field headquarters, and the civilians dispersed to other, more secure, locations in advance of something...
