Rodong Sinmun Thursday says this in a signed commentary.

It goes on:

The Japanese reactionaries' evermore undisguised moves to grab Tok Islet are a product of the humiliating policy of the south Korean conservative ruling forces to serve Japan as they have been hell -bent on confrontation with fellow countrymen, backed by outside forces.

It is the ulterior intention of the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors to realize its wild ambition for invading the north at any cost even by doing harm to compatriots in collusion with the Japanese reactionaries, the sworn enemy of the Korean nation. That is why the group of traitors feigns ignorance of the mounting anti-Japanese sentiment of all Koreans and the evermore undisguised moves to stage a comeback to Korea including the moves to seize Tok Islet. The group's intention is also explained by the fact that it is zealously taking part in the hostile moves against the DPRK, crying out for "bringing on tract the relations" with Japan and strengthening the "alliance."

It is none other than the Lee group that connived at the Japanese reactionaries' moves to grab the islet and egged them on to whet their swords for comeback to Korea. The Lee group is a clique of the worst type traitors serving Japan in the world as they play the role of a guide for aggressors while harming the dignity and interests of the nation.

Tok Islet will always remain part of the inviolable territory of Korea. Intolerable are the moves of Japan to grab Tok Islet associated with the blood and soul of the ancestors who waged an indomitable struggle for the protection of the dignity and sovereignty of the nation.
