Commenting on this, Rodong Sinmun Friday says that the visit is not a religious ritual and annual event but a very dangerous move to spread the poisonous militarism and an undisguised agitation for a war, prompted by the deep-rooted ambition for reinvasion.

The real intention of the visit is to imbue the Japanese people with the idea that they should not forget those killed in the war for continental aggression but whet the sword for reinvasion of Asian countries by inheriting their soul.

This is evidenced by the fact that the Japanese reactionaries are working hard to make the said visit conventional and regular after setting it as the "political and moral duty" of politicians. The unabated and increased visit to the shrine is escalating the danger of war by Japan in Asia and threatening peace and security there.

The day has gone never to come when the Japanese militarists occupied Korea and other Asian countries and acted the master. The Japanese reactionaries' unabated and increased visit to the shrine will precipitate Japan's destruction.
