Ri Un Chon, 45, a department director of the Ministry of Metal Industry, told KCNA that the Lee Myung Bak regime made public false "results of investigation" into the incident to mislead public opinion inside and outside and isolate and stifle the DPRK.

Accusing the regime of trying to inflict a nuclear war holocaust upon the Korean nation, he said the Korean workers, who have gained in strength under the Songun politics, show no mercy to the enemy.

They are resolved to annihilate the aggressors to defend leader Kim Jong Il and the socialist system if the enemy dare to invade the DPRK, he said, adding:

The south Korean regime's foolish attempt to impede the advance of the DPRK will only make the Korean workers harden their resolve.

Kim Yong Chol, 37, a section chief of the Central Committee of the Kim Il Sung Socialist Youth League, said in an interview with KCNA:

The spokesman for the DPRK National Defence Commission declared in a statement that the DPRK will counter the enemy's reckless "counteraction" with an all-out war of justice. It is a legitimate step to safeguard the headquarters of the revolution and defend the prosperity of the country and the happiness of the people from the aggressive moves of the warmongers.

The DPRK has a heroic Korean People's Army, equipped with powerful attack and defense means, and an invincible might of the people closely united in mind.

The south Korean regime will surely have to pay dearly for its clumsy ploy against the fellow countrymen in the north.

Kim Hyok, 28, a student of Kim Il Sung University, lambasted the south Korean regime for trying to bring the afore-said incident to the United Nations Security Council with the backing of the United States and Japan to hurt the fellow countrymen.
