I find it curious Kim Jong Nam was considered a valuable CIA agent. He was exiled and was held in ridicule for a long time. I don't know what he would have known that was valuable. That idea raises speculation on who he had contact with that provided information to him to pass to the USA. I find Nam's death very tragic and bizarre. If it involves the USA, I think that is especially unfortunate. I doubt he had influence with Un.
Nam was a reformer. That makes him important for reasons other than being a CIA informant.

The half-brother of North Korean leader Kim Jong-un, (click here) who was killed by two women who smeared his face with the nerve agent in an airport, was reportedly a secret CIA informant.
The Wall Street Journal has spoken to a secret source who claims there was a "nexus" between the US spy agency and Kim Jong Nam — and that he had met with operatives several times.
They added that Kim — who lived mainly in the Chinese enclave of Macau —was killed while on a trip to meet his CIA contact person and that he was "almost certainly" in contact with security services of other countries.
The source told the Journal that the CIA, was relieved that his assistance didn't come out in the wake of that killing...
His murderers got away with it, because the prosecution could not prove intent to murder. SO WHAT! They killed him whether they were naive to the fact they were using a nerve agent of not. Bizarre.
...Lawyers for the women have previously said they were pawns in a political assassination with clear links to the North Korean Embassy in Kuala Lumpur, and that the prosecution failed to show the women had any intention to kill. Intent to kill is crucial to a murder charge under Malaysian law...
If Un is not a party to this conspiracy, he should be demanding justice for his brother's death.
