Pyongyang, March 17 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists and the war-thirsty elements of the south Korean puppet military have been holding the aggressive Key Resolve and Foal Eagle joint military exercises in south Korea, plunging the Korean Peninsula into a touch-me-not situation in which a war may break out any moment. The People's Army and people of Korea, full of firm determination to return a just reunification war for the enemy's war of aggression, are looking back on the 1950s when they under the leadership of President Kim Il Sung won the victory in the Korean war against U.S. imperialism, putting the latter on the downgrade. When the war broke out, the world people worried over whether the young DPRK, which was founded nearly two years ago, might beat down the U.S. imperialists who had boasted of having emerged "victorious" in more than 110 wars of aggression. However, on the order of the President to mount instantly a counter-offensive against the surprise armed invasion of the U.S. imperialists and mercilessly wipe out the enemy, the heroic Korean People's Army achieved brilliant war results from the outset of the war beyond the war precedents and common knowledge. In accordance with the operational plan of the President, the KPA units defeated the enemy's main units deployed in the area along the 38th parallel strong in density of fire and entered into Seoul, the bulwark of the enemy, to fly the flag of the DPRK over there within three days following the start of the war and liberated over 90 percent of territory and 92 percent of population of south Korea in a matter of one month. And on the sea off Jumunjin the heroic Korean navy men sent to the bottom of the sea a heavy cruiser of the U.S. navy called "islet moving on the sea" and destroyed a light cruiser with only four torpedo boats by applying skillfully tactics of allurement, continuous and dispersive attack and other tactics advanced by the President. The advance troops of the "victorious division" of the U.S. imperialists were swept away in a twinkle and the defence line along River Kumgang the enemy had built as "the line of no retreat" and "the final defence line" was also broken through within only two days by the powerful blow of the Korean People's Army. As a result, the U.S. imperialists lost nearly 1,570,000 personnel including more than 405,000 American troops, a huge amount of military hardware including over 12,200 warplanes and war supplies and knelt before the Korean people during the three-year-long war. The tradition of the victory in war of the DPRK is being carried forward brilliantly by General Secretary Kim Jong Il century after century. The entire army and people of Korea who had won the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War under the leadership of President Kim Il Sung will display to the full the might of the powerful revolutionary army of Mt. Paektu, rallied single-mindedly around Kim Jong Il, if the enemy starts another war of aggression. |
