A protester hits a picture of North Korean leader Kim Jong-il as other anti-North Korea protesters burn a mock North Korean missile and portraits of the leader at a protest to denounce North Korea's rocket launch, near the U.S. embassy in Seoul April 5, 2009. North Korea said it had successfully put a satellite into orbit on Sunday on a three-stage rocket that was now circling the Earth transmitting revolutionary songs. Regional powers said the launch was a disguised test of a long-range missile that threatened security and violated U.N. resolutions. The signs read "Kim Jong-il (North Korean leader) Out".
