It recalled that a document detailing a plan for suppressing the candlelight demonstrators was made public.

What is shocking is the fact that the command planned to open fire at the demonstrators, the editorial said, adding:

Had the impeachment of Park Geun Hye been dismissed, there would have been the second Kwangju massacre in the middle of Seoul.

The command had conducted red-herring operations to shield the evil regimes, put the families of the victims of the ferry Sewol disaster on the list of a close watch and played the role of a wirepuller in the demonstrations of the ultra-right conservative bodies.

The command still keeps a close eye on the democratic pro-reunification figures while conducting propaganda against reunification and the north, the editorial said, urging the immediate dissolution of the command.
