Anti-DPRK Campaign Termed Open Declaration of War
Pyongyang, May 27 (KCNA) -- The reckless campaign kicked off by the Lee Myung Bak group of south Korea over its warship sinking is the unpardonable worst provocation and an open declaration of a war against the DPRK in the light of its sinister purposes, observes Rodong Sinmun Thursday in a signed commentary.

It goes on:

The group of traitors' assertion that the warship was sunken by "a torpedo attack of the north" is a sheer farce reminiscent of a thief crying "Stop the thief!"

The puppet group is blustering that the DPRK "should pay for the case" but it is the arch criminal who should pay for what happened and deserve punishment because it spawned such hideous case, branding fellow countrymen as criminals through plots and fabrications, and brought the inter-Korean relations to a collapse. Nevertheless, it is groundlessly laying the blame for the case at the DPRK's door and kicking off confrontation hysteria. This is nothing but a brigandish behavior.

Tightened "sanctions" against the DPRK much touted by the group are a reckless behavior that can be done only by those who are keen to ignite a war.

The Lee group made an extremely reckless option to stifle the DPRK through cooperation with foreign forces despite all Koreans' protest and denunciation and repeated warnings of the DPRK, thus declaring an all-out confrontation with it and threatening that south Korea would "not rule out a war against it."

Now that the puppet group challenged the DPRK formally and blatantly, the DPRK will react to confrontation with confrontation and to a war with an all-out war.

The group of traitors should bear deep in mind that should it misunderstand the DPRK's will and continue going reckless, this will entail unheard-of disastrous consequences, warns the commentary.
