Anniversary of June Popular Resistance Observed
Pyongyang, June 10 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Thursday dedicates a signed article to the 23rd anniversary of the June Popular Resistance waged by the south Korean people against the United States' colonial domination over south Korea and the puppet forces' military fascist dictatorship.

The article says:

The June Popular Resistance clearly proved that what tremendous power the popular masses can display when they turn out to accomplish a just cause and with no desperate efforts can aggressors and traitors overpower the united people. It taught a lesson that if the people are to finally realize their desire, they should not stop their struggle halfway but carry it on to the last.

The resistance ended in the victory of the south Korean people but the military dictatorial rule was neither brought to an end nor the resistance fighters' desire for independence, democracy and reunification came true.

The U.S., still keeping south Korea under its military occupation, is behaving like a master in the political, economic, cultural and all other fields of social life. It is violating the independent rights of the people, protecting a fascist dictatorial rule and desperately obstructing the Koreans' cause of national reunification.

The group going under the mask of "pragmatists" is staying in power depending on outsiders like the successive dictators in south Korea, thus ruthlessly chilling the people's desire for independence, democracy and reunification,

Traitor Lee Myung Bak cried out for "channeling all efforts into the economic recovery as elections were over". His remarks betrayed once again the arrogant and dictatorial nature of the group of traitors not accepting a stern judgment of the people at all.

The group is going more reckless in its behavior, far from apologizing to the nation for such crime as faking up the case of warship sinking, thereby escalating the racket of confrontation and war than ever before.

The reality goes to prove that the south Korean people can never remain self-complacent with the results of the recent "elections to the local self-governing bodies" but should intensify the anti-"government" struggle till the conservative group is ousted from power.
