The disclosure has touched off resentment among the servicepersons.

Choe Chol, an officer of the Korean People's Army, told KCNA:

"We will never pardon the Lee Myung Bak regime of south Korea that orchestrated the operation to demolish statues of the peerlessly great men.

Rat-like Lee is going wild to do harm to the great persons the entire Korean nation have revered as the Sun.

Now is the time to promptly execute Lee, a filth and disgrace to the nation.

The men and officers of our unit are on alertness to reduce to ashes Chongwadae and the Intelligence Service of south Korea."

Kim Ung Chol, an officer of the KPA Strategic Rocket Forces, said:

"Chongwadae and all other dens of human dregs are our targets of attack. They will be destroyed in an instant, once an order of firing is issued."

Jong Sin Hyok, an officer of the same forces, said:

"Rat-like Myung Bak is bound to face a harsh punishment by the entire nation for having egged on the anti-DPRK bodies in south Korea, including the 'statue demolition society', to conduct terrorism.

It is so ridiculous for the south Korean regime to try to offend the DPRK where all the people are united in one mind, by instigating such human dregs.

Nothing can break the single-minded unity of our army and people who are ready to become human bombs in safeguarding their supreme leadership."
