Casino67 Posted December 16, 2013 Share Posted December 16, 2013 FoxNews: The execution last week of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un’s uncle Jang Song Thaek has the U.S. and its regional allies questioning whether Kim has become more dangerous. Analysts say Jang’s death shows North Korea is unstable, and many are asking the question, what’s next for the hermit kingdom? “We’re in uncharted territory, this has never happened before,” Asia expert Robert Manning told Foxnews.com. “There is something going on that we haven’t seen before.” In an interview with Fox News National Security Analyst KT McFarland, Manning said Kim is trying to send a message to his country and world leaders. “The Chinese are extremely nervous now, Jang was kind of their guy, their number one business partner and someone who was believed to be favoring kind of a gradual move to Chinese-type economic reforms,” said Manning.
