Korea
KCNA on sheer sophism of U.S. and Japan
2003-03-04
Sophism? Where the hell do they find these words?
Nowadays, the CIA is raising a hue and cry over the "missile threat" from the DPRK, claiming that the whole territory of the U.S. is within the North Korean missile range, while Japan Defence Agency is busy taking "emergency measures" to cope with "North Korea's missile test fire." Such campaign was quite frequent in the U.S. and Japan in the past years. But, we can never overlook the present campaign that has been launched at a time when the DPRK-U.S. confrontation is getting extremely acute and a touch-and-go military situation is prevailing on the Korean Peninsula. The DPRK's production and deployment of missiles are a matter pertaining to its sovereignty in every respect and they are intended to increase its self-defensive military capability. Therefore, they can never be a threat to other countries in any case.
So I guess they'll use them on themselves?
Nevertheless, the U.S. and Japanese bellicose forces are making much fuss about "missile threat" from the DPRK. This is nothing but a cunning trick to tarnish the image of the peace-loving DPRK, invent a pretext for their preemptive attack on it and justify their establishment of Missile Defence System (MD).
Those "bellicose forces". Japan has them too. Must be some super secret special ops force. I guess the peace loving DPRK doesn't have such units.
The U.S. MD is, in essence, aimed to put the DPRK under its military control, contain big powers around the Korean Peninsula and, furthermore, achieve its purpose of turning the world into a U.S.-led unipolar world.
...and George Bush as Dr.Evil
So, the MD poses a serious threat not only to the Korean people but to the world people desirous of global peace and security. The U.S. is working hard to make the fictitious "missile threat" from the DPRK loom as a potential one in a bid to calm down the condemnation and protest of the unbiased world opinion against the MD and justify it. The clamor about "missile threat" can never be tolerated as it reveals the sinister intention of the U.S. and Japanese warhawks who do not want improved relations with the DPRK... Pursuant to its plan for preemptive attack on the DPRK, the United States is now concentrating huge armed forces, including an aircraft carrier, in and around the Korean Peninsula to stage large-scale war exercises... driving the situation to the brink of a war... The U.S. sometimes shows "carrot" called dialogue and negotiations but it is no more than a window-dressing to cover up its "stick" strategy, which is the core of its Korea policy. That is why it has persistently turned down the DPRK's fair and aboveboard proposal for concluding a non-aggression pact between the two countries. Keeping pace with the U.S. moves, the Japanese bellicose forces are taking an active part in the MD. Such action is arousing the DPRK's vigilance as it is in violation of the basic spirit of the DPRK-Japan Pyongyang Declaration which calls for the settlement of the unpleasant past between the two countries and the establishment of fruitful, political, economic and cultural relations.
You don't use our women as whores and we won't kidnap your citizens.
Now that the U.S. and Japanese warhawks are pushing ahead in full swing with the MD threatening the DPRK, we have no option but to further increase our self-defensive military capability.
Damn warhawks!

#1  we should let them see bellicosity: a brace of FA-18's around the next recon flight. Publish the flight plan in advance and get as close to their coast as int'l waters allow with weapons free. See if Dear Leader's patriotic forces has any cojones in his army-based policy - Now that would be a cunning stunt....or is it a...oh wait, that's a punchline from an old joke, nevermind
