News from the Associated Press:

SEOUL, South Korea (AP) — Kim Jong Il, North Korea’s mercurial and enigmatic leader, has died. He was 69.

Kim’s death was announced Monday by state television from the North Korean capital, Pyongyang.

Kim is believed to have suffered a stroke in 2008 but appeared relatively vigorous in photos and video from recent trips to China and Russia and in numerous trips around the country carefully documented by state media.

The leader, reputed to have had a taste for cigars, cognac and gourmet cuisine, was believed to have had diabetes and heart disease.

  1. Whoa! I wonder if the son will follow in his footsteps. North Korea is closed off to the rest of the world, with access to nuclear weapons. Kim Jon's son is about 29, 30 years old and the modern world may be calling to him.
