Papers Praise Kim Jong Il's Songun Revolutionary History
Pyongyang, August 25 (KCNA) -- Leading newspapers here Friday dedicate editorials to the Day of Songun when leader Kim Jong Il started the Songun revolutionary leadership.

The papers say that nuclear power of Juche, the world-level military power is the brilliant fruition of the Songun revolutionary idea and the Songun revolutionary line of Kim Jong Il, and the immense pride of Kim Il Sung's nation and Kim Jong Il's Korea.

Rodong Sinmun praises the exploits performed by Kim Jong Il under the banner of Songun as extraordinary ones of huge significance in accomplishing the popular masses' cause of independence and the socialist cause, and ones which guarantee the eternal future of the Juche revolution and the prosperity of posterity to come.

It continues:

Kim Jong Il formulated, systematized and developed in depth the Songun revolutionary idea and formulated the Songun politics as the basic political mode under socialism by organically combining the military with politics. This is the greatest exploit which will shine long in history.

He built the invincible military capabilities for self-defence with the nuclear force as a pivot with his strong pluck and superhuman energy. This was a driving force that brought about consecutive victories in the nuclear stand-off with the U.S.

The faith in Juche and the strong spirit of independence run through his Songun leadership.

His Songun revolutionary exploits are shining as the eternal treasure of the Korean revolution and the building of a socialist power thanks to respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un.

Thanks to him, the history of Kim Jong Il's Songun revolution will be given a steady continuity century after century.

Minju Joson also calls on all the officials and working people to firmly arm themselves with the Songun revolutionary idea of Kim Jong Il and glorify his Songun revolutionary records generation after generation.
