The Hong Kong bureau of the Canadian defense information center “Kanwa” reports that they have discovered a huge underground facility built to host North Korean leader Kim Jong Il in case war breaks out in his country.
The bunker, equipped with a military command center, has been built inside Mount Baekdusan (Baekdu in Korean) near the border with China, the Daily Telegraph reported on Friday. Right near the hideout is one of the palaces used by the North Korean leader, along with a small airfield.
The newspaper quoted the researcher who wrote the report as saying that the Baekdusan bunker will probably be the last hideout for North Korean leaders in case a military campaign on the country’s territory breaks out, much like the underground facilities used by Al Qaeda and Taliban leaders in Afghanistan. He also said that the location’s convenient location near the Chinese border suggested that Kim and his associates could seek asylum in China if the worst happens.
The analysts based the reports on satellite images and data provided by several high-rank North Korean defectors, including Kim’s former personal sushi chef.

@armen08 you would be more disgusted if you find out the truth why they keep on eyeing N. Korea. a lot of their citizens are starving to death and suffering from human rights violation. they are not free to leave the country and besides from the effort of S. Korea to attain reunification, the North would still ignore it. they would keep on improving their nuclear weapons and just let their people starve to death. the US may have other hidden agenda why they keep on spying the North, but for the benefit of the people there and as an ally of the South, i don't see any problems with that.
"I am really disgusted of the Western "free" press for denigating Kim Jong II tirelessly and incessantly" It's a news post about an underground bunker. Nothing bad. Stop hijacking threads for your own benefit/beliefs. Go somewhere where people are actually discussing this issue. Also, anyone that can't recognize that Kim is a deranged pyscho that makes his people live in absolute poverty, really needs to sit down and think about their life. Pretty easy to sit in your comfy house in your own country and bitch and whine isn't it? You make me sick.
