North Korea Succession
In this photo released by China's Xinhua News Agency, Pyongyang citizens attend a celebration ceremony rehearsal for the upcoming Conference of Workers' Party of Korea in Pyongyang, North Korea, on Sunday, Sept. 5, 2010. North Korea is preparing its largest political meeting in 30 years, and leader Kim Jong Il is expected to appoint a son to a key Workers Party position in what would be the strongest sign yet of a succession movement in the secretive communist country. The exact date of the political gathering, set for "early September," has not been announced, but analysts have said it could open as soon as Monday, Sept. 6, 2010. (AP Photo/Xinhua, Gao Haorong)
