North Korea dictator Kim Jong Il is said to have more than one look-alike, many believe he has several, but a report from Fox News claims that "Critics question whether an August 2009 photo of Kim Jong Il is really him." He is seated with former President Bill Clinton of the United States. Did the former president get tricked?

The Christian Science Monitor notes in a sub-head on a report, "The North Korean leader may be using look-alikes to hide his poor health. One analyst says that when President Clinton visited in August, he met with an actor, not Kim Jong-il."

World Tribune muses, 'Would the real Kim Jong-Il please sit back down in his wheelchair?" The CSM report adds, "Evidence of the resemblance is not verified, but several North Korean refugees report that Kim has several people standing in for him on some of the 122 trips he's made this year."

The picture of the two men is here - can anyone tell? It is not clearly obvious and if it is a stand in - he looks quite a bit like the leader.
