After 60 years of indoctrination, it is hard to imagine how any of the North Korean people can think of Americans as anything but monsters. Here are two posters from North Korea. You can see more at this site.

The hot new tourist destination?
I doubt it.
But if you like Spartan living conditions and little food, North Korea may be the place for you.
Yes, the hermit kingdom is opening its doors to Americans and pretty much anyone else in the world who is willing to spend some foreign currency.
Actually, you can get a three, four [...]
This is about as close as it gets to a protest in North Korea. Citizens are grumbling that the North Korean government has revalued the won. North Koreans are supposed to turn in their savings this week and get a new currency next week.
The government initially set a limit of 100,000 won per person that can [...]
North Korea has qualified for its first World Cup appearance since 1966.
Odds makers place the North Korean team at 350-1 long shots to win the World Cup. The chances of the average North Korean seeing a televised match are even longer than that.
Kim Jong Il has decreed that state-run television not run live television matches, [...]
North Korea is trying to win a war of words with Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
After Clinton referred to the North Korean government as “acting out” like “unruly teenagers,” the North Koreans responded as only they can.
A North Korean foreign ministry spokesman replied, “We cannot but regard Mrs Clinton as a funny lady as she [...]

They bought a British brewery in 2002, dismantled it and shipped it back to North Korea, thus, creating the Taedonggang Beer Factory. Apparently, the North Koreans can make nuclear weapons, but they can’t [...]
Following a flurry of missile firings and a nuclear test, North Korea Kim Jung-Il once again revealed why he is the leader of a nuclear power that cannot feed itself. He appointed his youngest son, 26-year-old Kim Jong-Un, as his successor.
The younger Kim is already known to North Koreans as “Commander Kim” with his own [...]
Analysts now believe that North Korea has the ability to wreck nuclear havoc on South Korea and Japan.
Last year, North Korea successfully miniaturized its nuclear weapons so that nuclear devices could be place on Scud, Toksa and Nodong rockets. Major cities in South Korea, Japan and American military bases in those areas are all possible [...]
Perhaps the North Korean launch of the Taepodong-2 missile was a failure after all. No one knows what the North Koreans originally intended – – fire a multiple staged rocket or launch a satellite into space — until after the launch was compled.
The best barometer of the missiles success is listening to what the North Koreans [...]
North Korea has launched its missile. A satellite it is not. No country has detected any transmission from it. All reports indicate that after the second stage of the rocket burned out, it and the payload dropped into the Pacific Ocean.
So what does the world do now?
Not much.
Japan threatened to shoot the rocket down if [...]
