Minju Joson Monday observes in a commentary in this regard:

Such behavior of the U.S. is reminding one of the trite methods it has used whenever it seeks sinister political purposes.

It is the true intention of the U.S. to mount a "retaliatory" cyber terrorist attack on the DPRK by terming it a cyber criminal, the commentary says, and goes on:

There is another reason why the U.S. is working hard to label the DPRK as a criminal while describing itself as a victim with the cyber attack case as a momentum. The U.S. face has now been seriously marred in the international community following the disclosure of close linkage between the "most developed hacking group in history" and the NSA. The experts of the Russian Kasperski Laboratory disclosed that the hacking group developed vicious code undetectable by anti-virus software, i.e. high-tech spy program, to hack and thieve secrets from 30 countries. Finding it hard to escape the protest and denunciation by the international community, the U.S. painted itself as a "victim of cyber attack."

The U.S. needed absurd "theory of north Korea's hacking", not objective fact about the case of hacking attack on the Sony Pictures Entertainment.

The U.S. trick and plot will only bring its sinister colors into bolder relief before the world.
