Pyongyang, October 1 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Ministry of Post and Communications of the DPRK released a statement Saturday blasting the south Korean puppet group's despicable psychological campaign against the DPRK that has reached an extreme phase.

The statement said:

From mid-August the group of traitors aired anti-DPRK broadcasting programs toward the western areas of the DPRK including North Phyongan Province from the areas around Paekryong Island in the same frequency band as used by the TV broadcasting in the DPRK.

It has also intensified anti-DPRK radio propaganda with the same radio frequency band as used in the DPRK to dare hurt its socialist system and the dignity of its supreme leadership and shake the people's mindset.

It has worked with bloodshot eyes to intensify psychological warfare, encroaching upon the radio frequency band of the DPRK, as if it were not enough with scattering leaflets, DVDs and transistor radios in the DPRK to hurt its system.

Involved in the smear campaign are notorious intelligence and plot-breeding organizations including the Intelligence Service and institutions of the authorities including the Defense and Unification Ministries as well as ultra-right conservative media under their direct control and human scum who defected to the south.

These reckless anti-DPRK confrontation moves aimed to undermine the dignified socialist system clearly prove to what extent the group has gone in its attempt to bring down the state system in the DPRK and in its frenzy for confrontation with the DPRK.

The Ministry of Post and Telecommunications of the DPRK together with the army, people and all other Koreans strongly denounce the puppet group's mean and despicable anti-DPRK smear propaganda as a challenge to the sovereignty, system and dignity of the DPRK and another serious provocation to it.

Psychological warfare is one form of a war against the other party.

The DPRK has already strongly demanded the puppet group halt at once the provocative and dangerous anti-DPRK smear psychological campaign that may push the north-south relations to a grave military clash.

However, the group is not only persisting in its campaign but has gone the lengths of committing radio wave-piracy defying international convention and order.

The International Treaty of Tele-communication clearly stipulates that application for the use of frequency should precede and the use of a certain frequency is possible only with the user's approval while considering it an illegal act in wanton contravention of international order to infringe upon the frequency already in official use by other country and region.

The puppet group's illegal use of the DPRK's radio and TV frequency bands is an outright violation of international convention and order and treacherous act of driving the north-south relations into extremes.

The reality proves that the group is utterly indifferent to international convention and it has neither common sense nor reason as it is buoyed by inveterate hatred for the fellow countrymen and the ambition to bring down the system in the DPRK.

It is ridiculous for the group to try to break the single-minded unity of the DPRK and bring down Korean-style socialism with such broadcasting piracy.

The army and people of the DPRK will never pardon the anti-DPRK psychological campaign of the south Korean puppet group to bring down the indestructible system in the DPRK but resolutely smash it by dint of single-minded unity and Songun.

Should the group persist in the campaign, defying the warning of the DPRK those broadcasting centers and those involved in it will never be able to escape deadly and merciless punishment by the army of the DPRK.
