Kim Jong-un Great Successor: Not Missing Meals As Kids Starve

Has Packed on the Pounds 

(Sure not missing many meals)

Across Town

(Kids Starving in North Korean Streets )

Update to the post that follows. This from former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee (R) speaking along with the potential 2016 GOP field of Sens. Rand Paul, Rafael Edward “Ted” Cruz, and Mike Lee in New Hampshire.  Here is what Huckabee said in part in his remarks: 

“My gosh, I’m beginning to think that there’s more freedom in North Korea sometimes than there is in the United States. When I go to the airport, I have to get in the surrender position, people put hands all over me, and I have to provide photo ID and a couple of different forms and prove that I really am not going to terrorize the airplane – but if I want to go vote I don’t need a thing,” he concluded.

WTF: More freedom in North Korea than here, Mr. Huckabee? Okay, go ahead and blow up a voting booth, just not an airplane ... savvy? Or go live in North Korea. I will even pay your way there, full expenses, one-way of course.

BTW: Huckabee and Kim, Jong-un would make nice bookends: Two fat f**ks.

Original post: Kim, Jong-un for sure is not missing many meals. He is busy succeeding at being great, I guess??? That must take a lot of energy and thus he burns a lot of calories, so he needs lots of food. The people like a fat, happy, well-fed leader there we surmise (because we know what happens when they are not happy followers: they are fed to the hungry dogs just like Kim's uncle was according to some reports).

North Korea as we have known since WW II has been run by only one family, Certain Kim family: Founder and Father (Kim, Il-sung), then his son (Kim, Jong-il), and now his son (Kim-Jong-un). 

PBS report shed light on this subject awhile back (2011) with this headlines: 

Children in North Korea at Risk for Starvation 

That was not the first report and certainly not the last. This report of a 2012 trip to North Korea with some 40 dramatic photos come from a Danish source (click here).

The photographs by themselves are eye-opening for anyone who does not know the harsh conditions and realities of life in North Korea. Those conditions are what the government there ignores out of some misplaced pride or whatever – and that which they refuse to acknowledge.

What caused the mess there? In the wake of the poor harvests of the past few years, a series of natural disasters and the chronic crisis of North Korean agriculture, close to 400,000 North Korean children have been threatened by extreme malnutrition. The pictures tell the stark story.  

Meanwhile, Great Successor Kim, Jong-un enjoys great meals three or more times a day and at the people’s expense.
