COMMENT POSTED TO AN ARTICLE BY STEWART LEE IN THE GUARDIAN
Kim Jong-un’s
happiness is just a great mini-break away
The North Korean
leader needs discipline; Donald Trump needs love. If only they could get
together for a holiday of a lifetime
Please, tell us the author is kidding?
Comic book psychoanalysis.
The truth is that we know very little about Kim Jong-un.
We cannot be sure he really is in charge.
Senior army officers surround him in just about every photo
we see.
So, I'm not sure he isn't something of a figurehead.
As for Trump, I know he has become a figurehead.
This seeming-maverick candidate capitulated completely to
the Washington establishment and its Pretorian Guard of the Pentagon and CIA.
He definitely is not running the show, although he is
allowed to make all the noise he likes and to carry out minor stupidities of no
interest to the power establishment.
It didn't take Trump to create the horrors of the Mideast
Neocon Wars which have killed a couple of million and sent millions running for
their lives or to start a giant system of extralegal killing which shames all
American pretensions to being a nation of laws.
