"Title of Generalissimo Associated with Boundless Reverence"

Why should these posts always be about Kim Jong Il? Sometimes you just have to post about Kim Il Sung. From (North) Korean News:
President Kim Il Sung was awarded the title of Generalissimo of the DPRK on April 13, Juche 81 (1992).

The title is permeated with heartfelt reverence of the servicepersons and people for the brilliant commander of Mt. Paektu who founded the heroic Korean People's Army, revolutionary armed forces, and defeated two imperialisms with his outstanding military ability in one generation to defend the dignity and sovereignty of the nation.

The President was handed over two pistols carrying the lofty patriotic will from his father Kim Hyong Jik in his early years. He, giving priority to arms, dedicated his whole life to the struggle for the freedom and liberation of the country and to the happiness of the people.

He applied strategy, tactics and guerrilla war methods unprecedented in the history to the war against Japanese imperialism. They are still shining as miracle in the world military history. [...]

CNN: "Mao offered U.S. 10 million women"

Kissinger declined, in effect:
Amid a discussion of trade in 1973, Chinese leader Mao Zedong made what U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger called a novel proposition: sending tens of thousands, even 10 million, Chinese women to the United States.

Chinese leader Mao Zedong, here depicted in an Andy Warhol painting, offered women to the U.S.

"You know, China is a very poor country," Mao said, according to a document released by the State Department's historian office.

"We don't have much. What we have in excess is women. So if you want them we can give a few of those to you, some tens of thousands."

A few minutes later, Mao circled back to the offer. "Do you want our Chinese women?" he asked. "We can give you 10 million."

After Kissinger noted Mao was "improving his offer," the chairman said, "We have too many women. ... They give birth to children and our children are too many."

"It is such a novel proposition," Kissinger replied in his discussion with Mao in Beijing. "We will have to study it."

Old saying makes great leap forward

From (North) Korean News:
Kim Jong Il has always emerged victorious in the struggle with his indomitable will, reacting to the enemy's hard-line policy with the toughest stand with the fixed faith and grit that he who laughs last laughs longer by holding higher the red flag of the revolution whenever the situation got more difficult.

Ain't it funny how brain cells slip away

I wonder what Waylon's politics are like.
Texas icon Willie Nelson said on a nationally syndicated radio show this week that he questions the official story of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in New York City.

"I certainly do," Nelson said Monday when asked by talk show host Alex Jones if he questions the official story.

"I saw those towers fall and I've seen an implosion in Las Vegas, there's too much similarities between the two. And I saw the building fall that didn't get hit by nothing," the singer-songwriter said. "So, how naive are we, you know, what do they think we'll go for?" [...]

Tehran Times: "Iran launches 5 electronic warfare equipment production lines"

Half the news stories from Iran seem to be about new military capabilities, but the nukes are peaceful:
Iranian Defense Minister Mostafa-Mohammad Najjar attended the inauguration ceremony for five production lines for electronic warfare equipment, including radar systems, in Shiraz on Tuesday.

The production lines will be operated by Shiraz Electronic Industries (Sashiraz), which is affiliated to the Defense Ministry, and will manufacture three types of radar system, time fuses, and other electronic warfare equipment.

"Iran’s security on the ground, in the air, and in space will be remarkably improved when the armed forces utilize the advanced domestically produced equipment," Najjar said at the ceremony.

The sanctions have actually motivated Iranian scientists to reach new heights, he added.
I wonder what Iranian scientists would achieve after an invasion.
