His death was announced in an emotional statement read out on national television.

The announcer, wearing black, said he had died on Saturday of physical and mental over-work.

The BBC's Lucy Williamson in Seoul says his death will cause huge shock waves across North Korea.

Kim Jong-il has been the leader of the impoverished communist country since the death of his father Kim Il-sung in 1994.

He suffered a stroke in 2008 and was absent from public view for several months.

His designated successor is believed to be his third son, Kim Jong-woon, who is thought to be in his late 20s.

I wonder if the Left will now idolize him the way they do Che Guevara.

Good riddance. I hope this would be the beginning of the end of the nut-job tyranny that is DPRK.

There will never be a crueller dictator.  Political dissidents were punished by putting three generations of their family in prison.

I actually heard he died of Ronriness.
