Kim Jong Un, now Supreme Commander

Supreme Commander, As long as he does not get my title of Supreme ruler of my Universe then everything will be o.k..

Communism works in mysterious ways don't it, well not really, aside from the fact that their has not been an attempt to off youg Kim jong un, has it been a surprise that he has claimed damn near every title there is?

Washington Post
North Korea announced Saturday that Kim Jong Eun has been officially named supreme commander of the military, further strengthening his authority after the death of his father, longtime North Korean leader Kim Jong Il.

Officials and state media have bestowed on Kim Jong Eun, who is in his late 20s, a string of titles as North Korea’s elite rally around him in the wake of his father’s death this month after 17 years in power.

But the title Supreme Commander — and its formal proclamation by the powerful Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party — is a clear sign that Kim Jong Eun is fast consolidating power over North Korea. It’s also the latest step in a burgeoning personality cult around him.
