Far from touching on his unpopular and anti-reunification crimes, he talked about "consistent and principled north policy" as if it proved effective. He ridiculously tried to admonish the DPRK, calling for "facing up to the situation" and "changes". More serious is that he openly revealed his ambition for "unification of social systems" talking nonsense that "unification would be a bigger springboard."

Rodong Sinmun Sunday in a bylined commentary brands the "celebration address" by traitor Lee as the last-ditch effort of one in the tightest corner, and a product of the sinister aim to totally destroy the north-south relations and implement the confrontation policy at any cost.

The commentary says:

Lee Myung Bak let loose such disgusting words as "door of dialogue" and "preparedness for cooperation", while pleased over the north-south ties that have faced a tragic phase. This is a just a sleight of hand of the confrontation maniac.

What should not be overlooked is that the traitor disclosed the ambition for "unification of social systems" talking about "change" and "unification". The DPRK will never pardon this.

He openly declared to rush headlong into the way of treachery till the last moments of his life by spitting out confrontation remarks in his last "address on August 15" before his term.

Lee Myung Bak is, indeed, a heinous traitor with whom the Korean nation can not live in the same land.

He can never evade the miserable end as he has persisted in treachery and the north-south confrontation from beginning to the end of his term.
