Profiling NK leader Kim Jong-il...

So you want to know more about Kim Jong-il?

Kim Jong-il. From Wikipedia

Hankering to learn more about reclusive and nuke-holding North Korea's short and odd haired dictator? Well, you're in luck! Not only is there the usual stuff, Wikipedia and BBC News as well as GlobalSecurity.org but also this US News and World Report article giving us 10 fun facts about Kim.

I think I found a partial explanation for his odd hair and lack of height (from the US News article):

He sleeps only four hours per day.

Hey, you have to give him some credit for that!

Back to the more pressing issues in the news. Analyses of the situations in North Korea and Iraq are coming soon (today or tomorrow); here are some previous posts on the N. Korean issue: HERE and HERE and here and here.
