US Attempts to Use Nuclear Weapons at Very Beginning of Korean War
Pyongyang, July 6 (KCNA) -- It was disclosed that the United States attempted to use nuclear weapons at the very beginning of the Korean war, stunning the international community. The U.S. started a concrete analysis of using A-bombs in September 1950, about three months after the outbreak of the war.

This fact was made known when a brasshat of the U.S. forces who served as commander of the U.S. Air Force in the Far East in Japan from 1949, opened to public his diary which recorded the state of the war since the start of the Korean War.

Rodong Sinmun Wednesday observes in a by-lined commentary in this regard:

It is not the first time that the above-said story was disclosed. Citing facts, the commentary goes on:

The then President Truman instructed to examine the use of A-bombs with the entry of the Chinese People's Volunteers into the Korean front as an occasion in November 1950. Commander of the U.S. Forces in the Far East MacArthur worked out a plan to drop 30-50 A-bombs over DPRK-China border areas.

According to AP quoting the declassified information from the archive of the U.S. Army in October last year, U.S. nuclear weapons were deployed in battlefields in the middle of August 1950 for the first time during the war. It was also disclosed that the U.S. examined a plan to use during the war nuclear weapons, the destructive power of each one was double that of the A-bombs that dropped over Japan at the end of the Second World War.

Even after the ceasefire, the U.S. had scenarios to stifle the DPRK by use of nuclear weapons.

It is still singling out the DPRK as a target of its nuclear attack, not content with posing constant nuclear threat to the DPRK.

It is an invariable and strategic scenario of the U.S. to make a preemptive attack on the DPRK and stifle it any moment.
