KCNA Blasts Lee Myung Bak's Moves to Tighten "Alliance" with U.S.
Pyongyang, July 1 (KCNA) -- Outbursts calling for "further tightening than ever before the south Korea-U.S. alliance to firmly guarantee the U.S. nuclear support to south Korea" were heard from an "event commemorating the anniversary of the June 25 war" held in south Korea on June 25.

Earlier, Lee Myung Bak pulled up the north over its "threat of war" while passing the buck for the outbreak of the last Korean war to it. He made no scruple of letting loose of a spate of outbursts that south Korea would cope with the threat through "cooperation" with the U.S.

The outbursts made by the Lee group for tightening the "alliance" with the aggressor on the very day the U.S. imposed a horrible war disaster upon the Korean nation are viewed as part of the evermore undisguised moves to expand the south Korea-U.S. "strategic alliance".

Since the Lee group of traitors came to power, it has brought the confrontation with fellow countrymen to the extreme phase and "alliance" with outside forces to a higher level. This is one of the worst crimes committed by him.

The Lee group singled out the relations with the U.S. as the top-priority task and general goal of the "state administration," asserting that "it was the biggest mistake and blunder of the former regime that it slighted the south Korea-U.S. relations" as soon as the group seized power.

The group got south Korea more deeply involved in carrying out the U.S. strategy for aggression to dominate the world and executing its policy toward the DPRK, advocating the "strategic alliance in the 21st century" aimed to make all fields of south Korea including the politics, military affairs, economy, social affairs and culture more dependent on the U.S.

During his recent junket to the U.S. Lee together with his American master announced what they called a "joint vision." At the confab they reconfirmed the "alliance" and agreed to build it into an extended "comprehensive strategic alliance" based on "common value" and "confidence."

This is little short of a declaration that Lee would tighten the nexus for aggression against the DPRK with the U.S. and pursue the moves for a war of aggression worldwide.

The south Korea-U.S. "strategic alliance" the keynote of which is to expand the "security alliance" is, in essence, a military alliance and an alliance for a war of aggression against the north.

The above-said moves stepped up by the group of traitors are unpardonable acts of treachery as they are premised on the escalated confrontation with compatriots.

As a matter of fact, this group is playing the role of a shock brigade to fight a war of aggression against the north in collusion with the U.S., while crying out for "a preemptive attack on the nuclear base of the north".

It is getting evermore undisguised in the arms buildup and war exercises aimed to invade the north.

The group officially declared south Korea's full participation in the PSI and is making haste to join in the missile defence system.

The moves to tighten the alliance with the U.S. for aggression lay bare the treacherous nature of the Lee group.

It is an unpardonable treacherous act for stifling compatriots by force of arms to escalate the military tension and the confrontation according to its master's policy and scenario for a war of aggression.

Such moves to escalate the confrontation with compatriots, backed by outside forces, are bound to meet a miserable setback.
