It better not be us. If you try to assassinate a leader, miss him, and kill a couple of thousand innocent citizens, and the guy you missed has nuclear weapons, and he's more than a bit crazy, you better hope he doesn't even imagine it might be us.
Now if I were Osama bin Laden, I might conceive a deliberately failed assassination of Kim Jong Il as a kind of bank shot. Bin Laden doesn't have nukes (yet); but he stands a chance of provoking Kim into using them -- or, if he doesn't suspect, of selling them to bin Laden to use.
I sure hope they can prove it's nothing but an accident.
