Lee in his public appearance said that the "forces following the north pose a greater problem than the north", not content with setting in motion vicious conservative elements, reptile papers and human scum in south Korea to trumpet about them.

What Lee uttered about those forces out of hysteria and uneasiness helps people from all walks of life in south Korea see through his ulterior aims.

Just as south Korean media commented shortly ago, Lee's reckless remarks were prompted by his political scenario to derail the solidarity among opposition parties by branding the democratic pro-reform forces as "forces following the north" and "Reds" and kick off a whirlwind of "coloring operation" in a bid to chill the atmosphere of the movement to judge the Lee Myung Bak regime.

In a word, this is a "witch hunt" of modern version and an agitation of fascist political terrorism aimed to ensure the pro-U.S. conservative forces' stay in power.

The advance of progressive forces into the political camp cannot but be a telling blow to traitor Lee Myung Bak and the clan of the "Saenuri Party" that went unchallenged in their moves to fabricate pro-American, fascist and unpopular laws, occupying majority of seats of the "National Assembly."

The conservative group feels extremely uneasy and fearful of the fact that the above-said development may hinder its implementation of the policy of confrontation and war and create a situation unfavorable for maintaining the puppet ruling system and ensuring its stay in power.

It was against this backdrop that the Lee group launched the "coloring operation" called campaign for "eliminating forces following the north".

The group's hue and cry over "forces following the north" proves that it is made up of die-hard flunkeys serving the U.S. and pro-Japanese lackeys.

The group of rat-like elements brought to light the true colors as sycophants and traitors and pro-American elements who tried to justify their suppression and persecution of progressive forces after crafting even phraseology of "forces following the north" intended to reject and hurt fellow countrymen.

What merits the most serious attention in south Korea at present is the fact that the sycophantic and traitorous forces are getting crazy with north-south confrontation and war hysteria after selling off the interests of the nation to outsiders lock, stock and barrel.

The puppet group's act of blindly toeing the U.S. line and the shackling alliance with the U.S. are wantonly infringing upon the interests of the nation and forcing the south Koreans to groan in the mire of misfortune and pain.

Unspeakable are the sufferings imposed by the pro-American forces on the south Koreans. They result from the import of American beef infected with mad cow disease, the conclusion of south Korea-U.S. FTA, U.S. forces' atrocities and the financial burden caused by the covering of upkeep of the U.S. troops, etc.

The facts go to clearly prove that it is not pro-reunification and patriotic forces desirous of alliance with the north but pro-U.S. sycophantic and country-selling and war forces that should be eliminated without delay.

It is the inevitability of the times and history that south Koreans of broad social strata are courageously turning out in the actions to judge Lee Myung Bak and the "Saenuri Party".
