Rodong Sinmun Thursday observes this in a signed article.

It goes on:

It is the true aim sought by the U.S. through its action to strain the inter-Korean relations to the worst phase with the above-said case as a momentum and thus ignite a new war in Korea.

The U.S. move to groundlessly shift the blame for the sinking of warship "Cheonan" onto the DPRK is nothing but a very dangerous military adventure being pushed forward as part of the scenario to carry out its strategy for dominating not only Korea but also the rest of Asia and the world.

It is a very responsible and urgent task for ensuring peace on the Korean Peninsula and peace and security in the rest of Asia and the world to check and frustrate the moves of the U.S. imperialists to invade the DPRK.

Handling the case of warship sinking from a selfish and biased stand would make it impossible to avoid the outbreak of a catastrophic war on the peninsula and, in that case, it would bring disastrous consequences to Asia and the rest of the world.

It is the truth taught by history that unless a life-and-death struggle is waged against aggressors neither durable peace can settle on the peninsula nor can the Korean people live in peace, concludes the article.
