Minju Joson Saturday in a by-lined commentary says: One of its motives was the atmosphere of confrontation and war against the fellow countrymen fanned up by south Korean traitors. The combat rule "action first and report next" worked out and sent to the puppet army units by puppet Defense Minister Kim Kwan Jin was another motive of the shooting. Kim took the post after the Yonphyong Island shelling incident last year.

Denouncing the Lee Myung Bak group for working hard to evade the responsibility for the shooting, far from investigating it, the commentary said if he punishes those marines, it will be hard to expect the army officers and soldiers to abide by the combat rule and come out for a war against the north, in consequence. This is the reason why the group of traitors refuses punishing the marines, the commentary said. In fact, it gave assurances it would not punish those who caused accident in the course of doing actions against the northerners, the commentary said, stressing:

The shooting proves not only the south Koreans but all other Koreans can not evade war holocaust and even the countries around the Korean Peninsula can suffer as long as the group of traitors is allowed to stay in power.

The group had better step down of its own accord before facing a stern punishment by the angered people.
