I'm really curious as how much 'real' anti-American sentiment there is in North Korea and how much is just rhetoric. That mass rally looked staged and the article said it was state-sponsored and the news coming out of N. Korea is state sponsored. Does the west really have any idea what is going on in North Korea, or is all the news via the state sponsored media. If the people are suffering from devasting poverty do they really care about nuclear bombs? Would N. Koreans really want to bomb South Korea if some of their family members live there?

I think what we know about people's real attitudes is limited, but maybe that doesn't really matter, b/c its the state that has the power to drop the bombs.
