In this February 1948 file photo released by North Korea's official Korean Central News Agency and distributed by Korea News Service, Kim Il Sung attends the military parade celebrating the creation of the North Korean People's Army. For nearly 70 years, the three generations of the Kim family have run North Korea with an absolute rule that tolerates no dissent. The ruling family has devoted much of the country's scarce resources to its military but has constantly feared Washington is intent on destroying the authoritarian government.
