Caution with the politics and the breaking news of the story but just heard over twitter from AP news that North Korean President Kim Jon Il has died. No further details, stay tuned.

While it's big news, sadly, it won't cause all that much change, as his son is basically the living extension of him.

Was his death the cause of being impaled onto a hat?

Was his death the cause of being impaled onto a pickelhaube? Fixed, because I'm a nerd. Anyhoo, good riddance.

Kim Jon Il has three sons, plus a son in law, so the EXACT line of succession is not clear. PROBABLY the eldest, but who knows.
South Korea is on emergency alert, understandably, in case whomever is the successor decided to assert his claim by using Seoul for target practice.
The scream for me is the headline from North Korea: Supreme Leader Kim Jon Il died TWO DAYS AGO of stress and overwork following a train trip.

From the Wall Street Journal: State TV announced that Kim Jong Eun will take over as leader of North Korea. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kim_Jong_EunHe is NOT the eldest, rather the youngest of the three. Interesting... EDIT: Oh and yes, he's the guy who tried to sneak into Tokyo DIsney.
