Minju Joson Wednesday in a bylined commentary says in this regard:

This was the last-ditch effort of the confrontation maniac, a politician more dead than alive, who is steeped in hostility toward fellow countrymen to the marrow of their bones.

Lee, who has been intent on the moves for confrontation and war from the outset of his office, malignantly slandered the DPRK again only to fully reveal his true colors as a confrontation maniac. His accusations against the DPRK were aimed to incite confrontation with fellow countrymen, escalate the tension and thus offer the "Saenuri Party" an opportunity for staying in power. His sinister scheme was to make the conservative forces take power and secure his safety after retirement. That is why he has become all the more frantic in his moves for confrontation with fellow countrymen as his term of office is coming to a close.

His frantic moves for escalating confrontation with fellow countrymen aimed at prolonging his dirty remaining days will only heighten the hatred and resentment of the people, and the traitor will not be able to avoid the merciless punishment by the service personnel and people of the DPRK.
