Clinton met fake Kim Jong-il, claims Japanese academic | A Japanese university professor has claimed that former US President Bill Clinton met a fake North Korean leader Kim Jong-il in August this year. He also said that
the original communist dictator had died in 2003. Japanese university professor
Toshimitsu Shigemura has always claimed that the real Kim died six years ago,
and that everything since has been make-believe. One Kim, he maintains, even flatly
confessed to a Japanese visitor, "I am a double." The Clinton visit in August
saw the former American President pictured alongside a far healthier looking Kim
than the wan and feeble Great Leader seen after North Korea test-fired a long-range
missile on April 5 2009. "They were totally different people," Shigemura told
the Christian Science Monitor this week. According to The Independent, most experts
can't quite believe the North would have sent out a bogus Kim to spend more than
three hours in Clinton's company, including what the North's official media called
75 minutes of "exhaustive" private talks. But evidence that he sometimes uses
doubles is strong. A double, or doubles, are "possible", Choi Jin-Wook, a specialist
at the Korea Institute of National Reunification told the Monitor. Fakery moreover
is nothing new for totalitarian regimes. The Soviet Union was doctoring photos
from its very earliest days. Saddam Hussein is known to have made much use of
doubles; so too, it is said. |
