Subject: Reddit claims that the Chinese claim that Kim Jung Un was assassinated this morning.
article posted:
Rumors that Kim Jong-un, the country’s supreme leader, has been assassinated just months after he took power originated on Chinese microblogging service Weibo and have now spread all over Twitter.

Others are reporting that Jong-un, believed to be 28 years old, may be on the run rather than dead, but both reports claim that some kind of coup is taking place.

One person on Weibo wrote (loose translation): "north korea's biggest leader kim jung un, this morning in beijing time 2:45 am, had his residence broken into and was assassinated by unidentified people, who were shot dead by his bodyguards in korea's embassy in beijing, vehicles are rapidly increasing in number, and have surpassed 30 of them, this sort of battle formation hasn't been seen in over two years. please verify this."

The rumors remain unsubstantiated. However, the reports are beginning to attract a great deal of attention, especially now that a couple of American news outlets including the Atlantic Wire have reported on them.

It it would be nice if the current regime was replaced by one that cared more for the citizens but it is possible things could go from bad to worse.

The workers in China are getting uppidity these days. Doesn't surprise me that China would want to move in and get a bunch of cheap labor for themselves...

"Reports have surfaced - a possible coup attempt on Kim Jong Undead?"

His assassination would make for interesting entertainment in the world, but I'll wait for more reliable coverage and for now assume it is some kind of 4chan "good night sweet prince" spoof.

Im sorry to say I would be happy if this was true. I would rather a military dictatorship there than the cult of personality that is currently there.

I sincerely hope there's a North Korean general with his hand inching closer to the red button as tears stream down his chubby face and, with one glance at the photo of the glorious Kim Jung Un over the panel, sends a barrage of Taepodongs toward Beijing.

They'd probably drop 10 seconds after launching, and fail to detonate.

My best friend's sister's boyfriend's brother's girlfriend heard from this guy who knows this kid who's going with a girl who saw Kim Jung Un get whacked at 31 Flavors last night. I guess it's pretty serious.
