Rodong Sinmun Thursday observes this in a signed article.

The U.S. regarding "strength" as almighty is attempting to realize its wild ambition for domination over the DPRK by military strength, the article notes, and goes on:

The WPK's Songun politics mercilessly deals a telling blow based on arms of justice at the aggressors seeking to violate the sovereignty of the nation. It also reliably defends the nation's sovereignty, dignity and vital rights with the invincible military capabilities from any infringement by outside forces.

The Songun politics put an end to the distress-torn history of the Korean nation in which its dignity and sovereignty was violated by outside forces as national strength was weak. It is resolutely smashing the criminal moves of the U.S. imperialists who have run amuck to enslave the whole Korean nation after occupying south Korea.

Now the U.S. dare not touch even a blade of grass or a tree in the DPRK. The DPRK is demonstrating its might as a military power, frustrating the U.S. highhanded and arbitrary practices on the strength of Songun. This reality proves once again that it is nothing but the Songun politics that is able to defend the sovereignty of the country and the nation and the security of all the Koreans.

But for arms of Songun, the DPRK would have failed to defend the red flag of socialism and many wars would have broken out in the Korean Peninsula.

It is the great fortune and high pride of the Korean nation to have such invincible treasured sword, a powerful weapon for defending the nation, as arms of Songun. Thanks to the strong arms of Songun, the dignity and glory of the Korean nation is getting higher, its consciousness of independence and self-esteem growing stronger and its cause of independent reunification vigorously advancing.
