Minju Joson Friday observes in a signed commentary in this regard:

It is demanded by the people that the south Korean group of traitors make apology for orchestrating the hideous farce called the warship case and bringing the inter-Korean relations to a collapse under this pretext. Nevertheless, the GNP is making the above-said outcry, a clear indication that it has gone extremely mad with confrontation with compatriots.

The south Korean authorities' action to define the DPRK as the "principal enemy" in their "defense white paper" would mean adopting the confrontation and war against compatriots as a policy and officially declaring it internally and externally.

The GNP gentries are going into inveterate fit of antagonizing fellow countrymen for fear of the process to improve the inter-Korean relations.

The above-said ruckus kicked up by the GNP cursed and denounced by the fellow countrymen is as foolish an act as bringing earlier the day when it will face a stern judgment of the nation as it will only add to its crimes. The GNP would be well advised to behave itself, aware that the inter-Korean relations deteriorated by its moves to escalate confrontation with fellow countrymen would be harmful to it either.
