Rodong Sinmun Calls for Advancing toward Final Victory Full of Faith
Pyongyang, May 17 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Thursday editorially calls upon all the service personnel of the Korean People's Army and people to wage a dynamic struggle for a final victory, firmly convinced that the road indicated by the dear respected Kim Jong Un is the one of victory and glory.

Kim Jong Un put up the revolutionary slogan "Forward for a Final Victory!" in a speech made at the military parade for celebrating the centenary of the birth of President Kim Il Sung.

This slogan fully reflects the ever-victorious history of the Korean revolution, the long-term militant goals and ways and the unanimous aspiration and desire of all the service personnel and people.

It also deals with the profound philosophy of the Workers' Party of Korea on the victory of the revolution and absolute trust in the inexhaustible potential of the DPRK.

It is replete with the strong will that Korea does if it is determined to do, persevering spirit of offensive that when one falls down a hundred times, one should rise up a hundred times and the Juche-oriented faith that a victory should be won by one's own efforts. Herein lies the vitality of the slogan, the editorial says, and goes on:

Our victory is guaranteed by such tremendous power as the single-minded unity, a weapon strongest in the world, the powerful elite revolutionary armed forces of Mt. Paektu possessed of nuclear deterrent, the firm foundation of self-supporting economy capable of producing everything it wants and a large contingent of talents.

The slogan serves as a revolutionary banner for defending socialism as it deals deadly blows at the enemies.

It is the revolutionary mettle of the army and the people of the DPRK to foil the imperialists' moves to stifle it by force of arms by dint of arms of Songun, frustrate their economic sanctions through a high-pitched drive for breaking through cutting-edge science and technology and scuttle their ideological and cultural poisoning with a revolutionary ideological offensive.

A final victory is in store for the DPRK as the President and General Secretary Kim Jong Il wish it a bright future and Kim Jong Un is steering the revolutionary cause of Songun with his matchless energy.
