Rodong Sinmun Friday says this in a bylined article.

Noting that the on-going joint military exercises in south Korea against the DPRK fully reflect the south Korean authorities' policy of confrontation against reunification, the article goes on:

The above-said policy of the Lee Myung Bak "government" is run through with moves to do harm to the DPRK and stifle it.

It is the ulterior intention of the group to realize its foolish dream of "unification of social systems" by bringing down the dignified system of the DPRK.

Lurking behind these ceaseless exercises for a war against the DPRK in south Korea is such sinister aim.

The on-going saber-rattling is the worst provocation as it is rubbing salt into the wounds of the fellow countrymen in the north still grieving over the demise of the father of the nation.

No one can imagine what serious situation the Lee group will create as it is bereft of any elementary human reason, ethics and morality, hell-bent on the moves to ignite a war against the DPRK.

Its anti-DPRK confrontation policy is, in fact, the source of evils which would bring a nuclear war disaster to the Korean nation.
