Traitor Lee Myung Bak, too, in his recent telephone conversation with Aso cried out for "international cooperation," taking issue with the DPRK's nuclear test aimed at bolstering up its nuclear deterrent for self-defence.

The Secretariat of the Committee for the Peaceful Reunification of Korea in its information bulletin No. 949 issued on May 29 denounces these reckless remarks made by the group of the traitors as the thrice-cursed sycophancy and treachery to serve Japan as they are aimed at escalating the confrontation with fellow countrymen in conspiracy with the sworn enemy of the Korean nation.

What is more intolerable is that the Lee group is soliciting "international cooperation" from the Japanese reactionaries in the anti-DPRK campaign, not content with speaking ill of the DPRK, terming its satellite launch and nuclear test "threat to peace" and "provocation."

The information bulletin goes on:

As already clarified more than once, the DPRK has bolstered up the nuclear deterrent for self-defence in order to reliably protect the dignity and sovereignty of the country and the nation from the hostile policies of the U.S., Japanese reactionaries and other forces of aggression toward the DPRK and their moves to ignite a war and champion peace on the Korean Peninsula.

The group of traitors are the group of "five traitors of 1905" of contemporary type who should not be allowed to go scot-free any longer as they are keen to stifle compatriots in collusion with the sworn enemy of the nation, unaware of how much they benefit from the DPRK's Songun politics.

The DPRK will never pardon the group of traitors for its hideous acts of treachery adding to the crimes it has committed against the nation but force it to pay a thousand-fold price for them.

The Lee group would be well advised to stop going reckless, clearly mindful that it will face only a stern and merciless judgment of the nation and a miserable end for its sycophancy and treachery and confrontation with the DPRK.
