Outbursts of Commander of U.S. Forces in S. Korea Lambasted
Pyongyang, May 12 (KCNA) -- The commander of the U.S. forces in south Korea recently let loose a spate of balderdash that the south Korea-U.S. "mutual defense treaty" will remain valid though the "right to command wartime operations" is transferred to south Korea and the "U.S. is firmly committed to providing a nuclear umbrella" to south Korea and the like.

Minju Joson Tuesday observes in a signed commentary in this regard: These outbursts were prompted by the U.S. desire to give a shot in the arm of the puppets running helter-skelter after being isolated internally and externally for frantically pursuing confrontation with fellow countrymen and, at the same time, dare to stifle the DPRK with military threat and blackmail against it.

He went the lengths of blustering that south Korea and the U.S. would maintain the posture of prompt combat actions on the basis of OPLAN 5027 and OPLAN 5029, talking about someone's "emergency situation." These remarks cannot be interpreted otherwise than unpardonable bellicose outbursts hurting the supreme dignity of the DPRK.

The U.S. call for "maintaining the posture of prompt combat actions" is little short of a declaration that it has rounded off its scenario for a nuclear war of aggression against the DPRK.

What merits serious attention is that the puppets are zealously joining the U.S. in its reckless moves to ignite a nuclear war of aggression against the DPRK. This is evidenced by the fact that the puppets claimed that they are "at the phase in which their counter proposal was put into a concrete plan." This is nothing but a reckless behavior to bring the inter-Korean relations to total collapse and do harm to compatriots at any cost.

As seen above, the recently disclosed sinister scenario of the U.S. and puppet war-thirsty forces to unleash a war goes to clearly prove that their moves for a nuclear war against the DPRK have reached a reckless phase of its implementation. The warmongers may ignite a nuclear war any time.

Their escalated moves for a nuclear war against the DPRK would only prompt the DPRK to hold higher the banner of Songun to deal deadly blows at the aggressors, provokers.
