Meanwhile, he, talking about "forces following the north" again, claimed "they would not get support" as part of the campaign for fanning up the "coloring operation."

Rodong Sinmun Saturday says in a bylined commentary in this regard:

The cascade of invective let loose by the traitor against compatriots during his foreign junkets is shame on the nation.

Lee should have controlled himself in his demeanor even a bit outside south Korea as he is hard hit by all sides for his wrong behavior almost every day inside it. But he was so blinded with confrontation with compatriots that he brought his true colors to light, the commentary notes, and goes on:

He is now finding himself utterly helpless, forsaken by the south Korean people. The malignant mud-slinging again made by Lee against the DPRK was intended to get rid of his miserable position by realizing international cooperation in the anti-DPRK campaign through mendicant diplomacy. This is disgusting diplomacy which can be conducted only by such traitor and stooge of outside forces as Lee.

In making speeches during his foreign trips, Lee did not forget to utter words "forces following the north." This was aimed to justify his policy of confrontation and stamp out progressive forces of different social standings in south Korea who wish to achieve reunification through an alliance with the north by linking them with the DPRK.

His outbursts only betray his consciousness of crisis in which he feels extremely uneasy after becoming the target to be eliminated by the people. Lee, though a dying politician, is working hard to improve his public image through "summit diplomacy" and the like. But his impertinent remarks only touch off derision and disgust among people.

The prevailing situation goes to prove that the traitor without an equal in the world should be eliminated as early as possible if the Korean nation is to escape a disaster.
