Rodong Sinmun Sunday observes this in a by-lined article.

It goes on:

The DPRK has made every possible effort to improve the inter-Korean relations and achieve peace and reunification of the country.

In view of the situation where the moves of the south Korean conservative authorities to escalate the confrontation with the DPRK have reached the phase which should not be overlooked anymore, the National Defence Commission of the DPRK was entirely just when its spokesman in a statement called for a nationwide all-out offensive to frustrate the foolish anti-reunification action of the "regime" of traitors.

It is an urgent requirement of the present reality to bring down the anti-reunification and confrontation-minded "regime."

It is quite natural that the group of Lee Myung Bak has become a target of curse and denunciation by the nation for the hideous anti-reunification crimes committed against the country and the nation over the last more than three years.

If this group of traitors is allowed to run riot as it pleases, it will bring nothing but a war to this land.

The present reality requires all the fellow countrymen at home and abroad aspiring after national reconciliation and unity and peace and reunification to turn out as one with burning anger at the Lee group of traitors and wipe out all of them.

The destiny of the nation cannot be reduced to a plaything for traitors.

All those who value the country and the nation and are concerned about the fate of the inter-Korean relations should turn out as one in the just patriotic struggle to bury the anti-reunification and confrontation-minded elements in the graves of history irrespective of idea, political view and ism, urges the article.
