It's clear that the North Koreans want a dialogue with the US after the Democrats took power. Bill Clinton made a lot of progress with North Korea when he was president.

The two Koreas were also allowing family visits.  Those were the good ol' days.

Intrade predicts Bill Clinton will return with the two lady journalists

Many pundits have suggested that former President Bill Clinton would not have visited the DPRK if he didn't have a high probability of returning with the two journalists: Laura Ling and Euna Lee.

Intrade agrees gives Clinton nearly an 80 per cent probability of success that are great odds.  Rightardia hopes Intrade gets this one right.

The US was making a lot of progress with the DPRK when Clinton was in office.

North Korea's leader has pancreatic cancer

09:2913/07/2009

MOSCOW, July 13 (RIA Novosti) - North Korean leader Kim Jong-il has pancreatic cancer, South Korea's YTN said on Monday citing unnamed Chinese and Korean intelligence sources.

The ailing leader has made just two public appearances since reportedly suffering a stroke last August. Most recently Kim was shown on the country's Central Television on July 8 looking gaunt at a ceremony in Pyongyang to mark the death of his father, Kim Il-sung.

The report comes days after Japan's TBS television said Kim had been diagnosed with a "serious disorder" of the pancreas.

According to TBS he is receiving treatment at his home in Wonsan, on North Korea's southeastern coast.

South Korean Unification Ministry, Chun Hae-sung, was cited by Yonhap as saying "I have no information" on the reports.

The 67-year-old leader is expected to hand over power to his youngest son Kim Jong-un.

Kim Jong-un, now 25, was born to Kim Jong-il's third wife, Ko Yong-hi, who died of breast cancer at the age of 51 in 2004. According to Yonhap, the youngest of Kim's three sons, Jong-un was educated at the International School of Berne and is a fan of NBA basketball.
