Rodong Sinmun Warns of Danger of Japan's Militarism
Pyongyang, December 19 (KCNA) -- Japan, a defeated state in the Second World War, has run the whole gamut of ploy to paint itself as a "pacifist state" but this more strikingly revealed its dirty colors as a war state and aggressor before the international community, says Rodong Sinmun, a major newspaper of the DPRK.

In a by-lined article on Sunday the newspaper cites facts to prove that this year Japan has done wrongdoings which can be done only by a war state.

The DPRK becomes a target of the Japanese reactionaries who are working to turn Japan into a military giant for overseas expansion, the article pointes out.

The article goes on to say:

"Their call for 'securing the capability for attack on the enemy's bases' was prompted by Japan's intention for reinvasion. The 'enemy' mentioned by them means the DPRK. The Japanese warmongers' call for 'attack' is just a slogan for staging a comeback to Korea and a prelude to a war."

"This is well evidenced by the fact that they have been getting hell-bent on the anti-DPRK campaign as soon as an unexpected incident occurred on the Korean Peninsula."

"The Japanese militarist forces go reckless in a bid to realize their ambition for reinvasion on a war chariot of their American master under the pretext of 'military cooperation.' The involvement of the mobile strike forces of the 'Self-Defense Forces' in the naval joint exercises of the U.S. and south Korea shows how hard they have worked to round off the preparations for reinvasion of Korea this year."

"The Japanese militarist forces' scheme for reinvasion is put into practice, going beyond the danger line. The existence of a dangerous war state in the vicinity of Korea itself is a serious threat to the DPRK."
