Rodong Sinmun Tuesday observes in a bylined commentary in this regard:

The above-said rhetoric let loose by Lee is aimed at soothing his stooges seized with uneasiness and fear of the declaration made by all infuriated servicepersons and people of DPRK to mete out punishment to him and shore up the long bankrupt scenario for "unification of social systems".

Lee's remark that "he has consistently pursued the policy toward the north" despite "threat" from it is nothing but sophism to shirk his responsibility for the collapse of the inter-Korean relations and justify his anti-reunification policy of confrontation, the commentary notes, and goes on:

Nowadays Lee is more talkative about "unification" than ever before.

"Regaining of freedom and human rights" and "wind of change" touted by the traitor go to clearly prove that "unification" on the lips of the puppet forces is no more than traitorous "unification of social systems" designed to establish the same corrupt social system in the north as that in the south.

The traitor's talk about "wind of change" is nothing but a scream of the quisling taken aback by the indestructibility of the ideology and social system in the DPRK.

Lee Myung Bak had better awake from his daydream ridiculed by the public at home and abroad and get ready to face a stern judgment of history.
