The Korean nation's grudge and desire to retaliate the Lee Myung Bak group of traitors are sky-high, the statement said, and went on:

The group of Lee Myung Bak recklessly slandered and insulted the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK, hysteria against the nation and hideous provocation of pushing the situation to an uncontrollable phase.

The group is the sworn enemy with whom Koreans can not live under the same sky and herd of traitors to be swept away with arms.

We will mercilessly smash anyone who seeks to slander and insult the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK even a bit.

Now is the time for the members of the Korean nation who are concerned about the destiny of the country and nation to turn out in the nationwide sacred war irrespective of affiliation, religious belief and political view to eliminate the Lee group at an early date.
