KCNA Commentary Snubs Cock-and-Bull Story of Lee Myung Bak
Pyongyang, August 14 (KCNA) -- Traitor Lee Myung Bak of S. Korea whose days are numbered is making desperate efforts to escalate the confrontation between the two differing social systems of the north and the south of Korea.

Shortly ago, he told such cock-and-bull story that "various circumstances suggest unification has come near at hand just as an evening glow is a sign of sunset". He is getting more vociferous about "unification jar" than ever before, while making much fuss about opening websites for "'unification jar campaign' for preparing unification".

The Lee regime is ill-famed for embezzling money without drawing the line between public and private affairs. It is preposterous for the regime to talk about "funds for unification".

This is no more than a disgusting gesture of sleep-walkers dreaming of a foolish "unification of the social systems." It is a deceptive artifice to weather their worst ruling crisis.

It is quite natural for the south Koreans and other people of the world to deride and censure the traitor's ridiculous gesture, an insult to the nation's desire for reunification.

As proven by facts, it is not due to lack of money or wealth that the nation's reunification is delayed. It is due to the hostile policy toward the DPRK pursued by the U.S. which caused the division of the Korean nation and the persistent moves of the group of traitors, its lackeys to escalate the confrontation with the DPRK.

It was none other than Lee Myung Bak who threw wet blanket over the nation's desire for reunification which grew stronger after the publication of the historic June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and mercilessly trampled down even small buds of reconciliation, unity and exchange.

As soon as he took office, Lee openly blustered it was his "biggest dream and goal to realize unification under liberal democracy." He has watched for a chance to achieve "the unification of the social systems" in the event of "contingency" of someone and through "a preemptive attack."

He made no scruple of hurting the dignity of the supreme leadership of the DPRK and attempting state-sponsored hideous terrorism.

He is now busy with false propaganda, talking about "drafting of amendment to the law on south-north cooperation fund" and "unification jar" aimed to "secure financial resources for increasing the funds for unification." This is designed to increase the funds for confrontation and division in order to achieve the "unification of social systems".

These reckless moves of the group of traitors to escalate the confrontation with the DPRK have put the inter-Korean relations to the worst phase and thrown all the Koreans in the danger of a nuclear war. This is a hard reality.

Had such wicked traitors to the nation and worst confrontation maniacs as Lee Myung Bak not been allowed to come to power, national reconciliation, unity and reunification would have become realities earlier. This is the conclusion made by all the Koreans.
