A Country of Autobots

If ever proof was needed of the mad world we live in, one need only look towards North Korea and the reaction of the people to the death of their 'Dear Leader' Kin Jong Il. The transfer of power to his son is causing an already nervous world to worry even further, but what is truly scary and frankly terrifying is the the grief and sheer devotion through years of brain washing and total control. These people will clearly do anything they are told to do and would never question a single thing. It is this that should strike the most fear for the country is quite literally one enormous army of 'autobots', programmed to be loyal to their leader and to view any foreign neighbour as evil and hell bent on their destruction. With this in mind, I really cannot see how this is going to end well. The only hope we have is that his son, Kin Jong-un has just a little more sense than his father and isn't quite so mad as to further alienate his country from the rest of civilisation. Time will tell but perhaps the hardest job will be to 're-humanize' the population who clearly live in a totally alien world to the rest us of.
