This must also be partially responsible for the heavy rumors of, around that time a) personnel security detailed being increased considerably around Kim Jong-il; b) panic in Pyonyang at the value of North Korean Won due to war rumors; c) hoardes of students at Kim Il Sung University also going to deep ground during this period due to strong rumors the US was going to attack with punishing force.
It will also be noted that during this time, if I am not mistaken, there had been considerable NK propaganda of KJI making "on the spot" guidance tours; almost too many to keep track of and unreasonable for the man to accomplish at that intensity. Fact is, the Norkies cannot lie about KJI's whereabouts anymore. They are being detected constantly, primarily the movement of his special train and through other resources. It was known precisely where he he was (and where is is right now in fact, that he fears the radar penetrating Raptors and headed straight for deep command bunker ground near Mt. Paektu). Something was suspect about these KCNA on the spot guidance reports; now we know. Kim Jong-il may or may not still be deep in his bunker out of fear of the Air Dominance Fighters. If he had some much as provocatively moved his Nork MiGs at that time, there were orders for the F-22s to take them out. Also sheds new light on DPRK yapping about shooting down any enemy intruder aircraft over Republic airspace, even if broached by one milimeter. They know they are on candid camera (from space and aircraft 24/7) and extensive bombing locations have been surveilled and analyzed, all locations the Chia Pet and his son can be expected to hole up when and if things get hot, centering around the 20 plus "villas".

One even wonders in retrospect whether Dear Bastard and Little Fat Bastard even went to the concert on 28Nov in the evening as claimed.
