The CIA would be the last people to kill Kim Jong Il, which is what I assume you are saying. North Korea is going down the same path that China went down, only more drawn out, in that eventually you will be wearing sneakers with MADE IN DPRK on them. Why would they want to assassinate the guy responsible for that?

There is the possibility that there will be conflict with South Korea, but it's a small risk to take. The nations of the world don't want Kim Jong Il out of power, they just want him to stop building nuclear bombs and stop trying to aggravate things.

Kill Kim Jong Il = his son takes over, economic freedom for foreign countries is halted, Songun (focus on military) policy is increased, more shelling of the South and sinking their shit.
