The deputy spokesman for White House at news briefing said that the Foal Eagle joint military exercises are annual ones and the participation of B-2As in them is for "defense".

Timed to coincide with this, the U.S. Defense secretary said that B-2As' drill "is aimed to cope with unimaginable situation, not to rattle north Korea." When talking with the south Korean "Defense minister" over phone, he said "the north will have to hold all responsibilities for the consequences to be entailed by its provocation."

The U.S. is openly staging ground target striking drills by deploying B-52 and B-2A and other strategic nuclear strike means in succession in the sky over south Korea. The U.S. talk about "responsibility for provocation" is gangster-like sophism.

The U.S. and the warmongers of south Korea are loudly spreading the story of "drills for defense". This is aimed to evade the responsibility for the situation.

The offensive nature of the Foal Eagle military drills targeting the DPRK is startlingly at odds with "defense".

Do U.S. super-large nuclear carrier strike group and nuclear strategic bombers come to south Korea for a spring-time visit?

Are the "plan for jointly coping with provocation of a local war" the keynote of which is an all-out nuclear war, "strike on commanding forces" and "extermination of the north regime" military words for "defense"?

The joint military exercises being staged by the U.S. and the south Korean forces are maneuvers for aggression unprecedented in history in the light of their provocative nature and danger.

The U.S. military already presupposed the second Korean war and has made it a top priority.

The U.S. and the south Korean warmongers have steadily rounded off preparations and procedures for mounting "preemptive nuclear attack" on the DPRK and occupying it by armed forces through Foal Eagle.

A nuclear "eagle" does not flutter its wings for "defense".

The joint military drills are actual military exercises of offensive nature in which field mobile drills are combined with special operational exercises.

No one knows when the U.S. will ignite a war while staging the mad-cap Foal Eagle drills.

The U.S. and its allies' acts of infringing on the sovereignty of the DPRK have gone beyond the stage of nefarious economic "sanctions" and are being followed up with military offensive for aggression.

Under this situation can the DPRK remain an on-looker at this without taking crucial measures for defending its sovereignty?

The arch criminal who pushed the situation on the Korean Peninsula to the brink of a war is the U.S. and its stooge south Korean puppet forces who are intensifying the racket for war exercises against the DPRK while pulling it up over its peaceful satellite launch and the nuclear test for self-defence.

Provokers can never evade from the responsibility for the worst phase of tensions created on the Korean Peninsula.
