Rodong Sinmun Saturday says this in a bylined article.

The north-south relations which were favorably developing have been held back, confrontation escalated, national issue reduced to a plaything of outsiders and the situation on the Korean Peninsula is inching close to the brink of a war due to the Lee group serving the U.S. in its moves to stifle the DPRK. This is the reality at present, the article, notes, and goes on:

There was a confrontation maniac who was rejected and censured by the nation for building a concrete wall to divide the country in the bitter history of the nation's division. But there was no such an outrageous traitor who hurt the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK as Lee.

Terming the Lee group one of confrontation maniacs rare in the history of national division and a group of hideous traitors, the article continues:

It is self-evident that the improved ties between the north and the south can never be expected as long as the group of traitors is allowed to remain in force.

Coming back in south Korea is the past era of confrontation, fascist dark era when people were thrown into a jail for uttering a word reunification.

Lee Myung Bak group should be eliminated in order to save the destiny of the nation from crisis and achieve reunification and peace of the country.
