Such a peach - Kim Jong-Il

I cannot understand why people don't like him. From Yahoo/AFP:
N Korean leader even fixes TVs for beloved troops: state media
North Korean leader Kim Jong-Il has such "paternal love" for his troops that he even checks the TV reception and room temperature in their barracks, state media said Monday.

"Today, the soldiers of the Korean People's Army revere and follow leader Kim Jong-Il rather as their father than as the supreme commander," said a eulogy carried by the official Korean Central News Agency (KCNA) to mark the 16th anniversary of Kim's assuming the top command.

Kim paid scrupulous attention to the needs of his soldiers, "showing them warmer affection than their own parents would," it said.

The agency cited his actions in fixing the TV reception for a women's unit located in a deep valley; encouraging sketching by the troops; replacing threadbare winter uniforms; and even checking the room temperature and water quality while inspecting bedrooms and bathhouses.

"Immeasurable is the warmth of his parental love for the soldiers," KCNA added.
Meanwhile, the nation is without sufficient food, water or power. The elite live very well while the poor starve. The government makes its money by counterfeiting US currency and munitions sales to terrorist nations and groups. They did set off a nuke and although it was more of a dud than a sauces, who knows about the second one.
