History of War Victory Everlasting: KCNA Report
Pyongyang, July 25 (KCNA) -- KCNA Wednesday released a report "History of great victory in war against U.S. imperialism is everlasting". It deals with great feats Generalissimo Kim Il Sung performed in the war.

The report is summarized as follows:

1. Brilliant victory of great Juche idea, Songun idea

President Kim Il Sung solved all problems arising in winning the victory in the war on the principle of Juche with his rare ideological and theoretical wisdom.

In "Let Us Wipe Out the Invaders by a Decisive Counter-offensive", a speech he made at the emergency meeting of the DPRK Cabinet on June 25, 1950, the day when the war broke out, and in a radio speech to all the Korean people on June 26, he said that the Korean War is an offspring of the U.S. foreign policy for aggression aimed at world hegemony and that the DPRK's war against it is the just Fatherland Liberation War for the freedom and independence of the country and democracy both in name and reality.

He elucidated the strategic idea of the Workers' Party of Korea for the victory in the war on the basis of the position and role of the popular masses in the revolutionary war.

In his radio speeches to all the Korean people on June 26 and September 9, 1950 he put forward the idea of patriotism and unity, calling for turning the war into an all-people war. He also set forth the idea of definitely ensuring the politico-ideological, strategic and tactical superiority of the army in the whole course of the war.

In different works and speeches he gave a profound exposition of the politico-ideological, strategic and tactical superiority and might of the Korean People's Army which any imperialist army or any army of reactionary exploiting class cannot have, their decisive role in the revolutionary war and the tasks and ways to fully display them.

In some important speeches he called for meeting the material need of the front with the efforts of the Korean people to suit the characteristics of the modern war, the actual conditions of the country and their patriotic enthusiasm and made clear the principled demand and ways.

The Juche-based idea of properly combining operations of large and small units, and regular warfare and guerilla warfare and successfully carrying on mountain warfare and nocturnal warfare takes an important place in his strategic idea.

The victory in the three-year Fatherland Liberation War was the victory of the Juche idea and Songun idea attaching importance to human being and loving the people over the imperialists' idea of aggression for reducing the Korean people to slaves again, and their misanthropy.

2. Victory of Brilliant Wisdom and Outstanding Strategy, Tactics and War Methods

The young DPRK, five years since its liberation and two years since it had a regular army, and the people defeated the U.S., the boss of imperialism in the world which boasted of its history of aggression spanning a hundred and scores of years and its numerical and technical superiority. They owed the victory to the outstanding military wisdom, strategy and tactics and war methods of President Kim Il Sung.

Three days after the start of the war the 105 Tank Division rushed to Seoul and the DPRK flag fluttered on the "Capital Building" of the puppet forces. The operation for liberating Seoul shook the U.S. colonial ruling system to its roots.

Brave seamen of the DPRK sank 17 000-ton cruiser "Baltimore" which had been called "a moving island" and destroyed a 12 000-ton cruiser with only four torpedo boats in the waters off Jumunjin in accordance with the Juche-based war methods indicated by the President. This was specially recorded in the world history of sea battles.

The military miracles like the shining victory in the operation for liberating Taejon, typical of modern encircling warfare, successive siege and annihilation operations in different areas, attack on the "Pusan base" of the enemy and creation of "crisis in Taegu" were all closely related to the wise leadership of the President.

At the first stage of the war the Korean People's Army annihilated main forces of the south Korean puppet army, dealt a heavy blow to the U.S. imperialist aggressor forces and liberated over 90 percent of south Korea and more than 92 percent of its population. These tremendous achievements were a manifestation of the greatness and vitality of the Juche-based military idea and war methods and outstanding commanding art.

Every war method set forth by the President in that period was fresh and unique one suited to specific topography and conditions of the country.

The entire army and all people in the DPRK awarded the title of DPRK Marshal to Supreme Commander Kim Il Sung on February 7, 1953 out of their boundless reverence for him who performed undying feats in the Fatherland Liberation War.

3. Victory of Mental Power of Leader, Army and People

The victory in the Fatherland Liberation War is a result of the revolutionary faith and prodigious grit of President Kim Il Sung and the mental power of the army and the people closely united around the leader.

There is always a way out of any adversity and one should defeat the enemy and win no matter how often he or she may have to die -- this is the President's pluck and will encouraging the Korean army and people to display indomitable mental power and patriotism in the war.

The army and people fought the war with a strong will to always follow and devotedly defend the supreme command, protect the cradle of their genuine life and happiness from the enemy in a do-or-die spirit and defend every inch of the country at the cost of their lives.

In the 1930s the President, a young general on this side of his twenties, proclaimed a war against the brigandish Japanese imperialists and defeated them through two decades of the hard-fought revolutionary war. He also defeated the world reactionary allied forces including formidable U.S. imperialists in the 1950s. Already in his forties he enjoyed deep reverence and trust from the world people as a brilliant commander who defeated two imperialisms and as a symbol of victory in the anti-imperialist struggle.

Generalissimo Kim Jong Il, carrying forward the great tradition of patriotism, creditably defended the socialist country and the revolution in the war without gunfire for decades and provided precious foundations for the revolutionary cause of Juche.

The Korean army and people, advancing toward a final victory, closely united around Marshal Kim Jong Un, another peerlessly great man, will steadily carry forward the history and tradition of the war victory.
