DPRK IS HIGHLIGHTED BY BRILLIANT COMMANDER OF PAEKTU
Looking back upon the past, foreign soldiers guarded the royal palace as Korea had no regular army and the Korean nation became a ruined people.
Numerous Korean people conducted resistance against Japanese army equipped with up-to-date weapons by means of spears, swords and matchlocks. Sometimes they waged popular uprisings and appealed to the conscience of humanity and justice of the world for Korea’s independence.
A Korean patriot Ri Jun demonstrated the Korean nation’s true spirit of independence by disemboweling himself at an international peace conference held in The Hague and An Jung Gun demonstrated the mettle of the Koreans by shooting Ito Hirobumi to death at the Harbin Station and cheered for independence. In addition, a campaign was launched to pay back the money that Korea had received from Japan after Russo-Japanese war. To this end, the men gave up smoking and the women cut down their expenses on food and sold their trinkets. However, Korea failed to maintain her independence.
President Kim Il Sung proclaimed a war against Japanese imperialist on the tableland at Tuqidian, Antu, surrounded by larch trees 77 years ago.
It was the sacred anti-Japanese revolution started by the President with two pistols inherited from his father Kim Hyong Jik.
The Japanese imperialists called the Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Army “a drop in the ocean”, but a miracle was made that the AJGA won victory in the war led by the President. Arms of Mt. Paektu brought about the liberation of Korea and foundation of the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, an independent sovereign state.
Making a firm resolve not to return before Korea had become independent, President Kim Il Sung waged the anti-Japanese bloody war for over 20 years and at last defeated Japan, styling itself as one of the five powers of the world. Indeed, he is a legendary hero and peerless patriot.
The US-led imperialist reactionaries put unprecedented political and military pressure upon the DPRK, the only citadel of socialism, from the early period of its foundation and, in particular, in 1990s. What is worse, the DPRK suffered shortage of food due to natural disasters for consecutive years.
Many people in the world foretold that the only way for the DPRK is to surrender or beg before imperialism.
Mightiness, weakness, happiness and misfortune of a nation depend on leader.
The people talk about the rise and fall of a country with a leader of the contemporary age. Because the fate of a country depends on authority and leadership ability of the leader.
At that juncture, leader Kim Jong Il opted for defending the country with his Songun politics, declaring determinedly do not expect any change from him.
The people of the DPRK unhesitatingly chose the arduous way to defend justice before submission and honorably safeguarded the sovereignty of the country.
It, which had been plagued by aggression of foreign forces, as it had no warship to defend its territorial waters in the past, is a strong military power with self-defensive war deterrent that no one dares to provoke.
The world people, who studied the Songun politics with doubt, highly speak of it and the pressure of US against socialist Korea turned into the recognition of the DPRK.
The imperialist reactionaries, who contemplate to handle north Korea easily, were frustrated in their attempts.
A foreign political analyst commented that there are three wonders in north Korea: Firstly, Korean-style socialism stands as an invincible bulwark in the international political arena, secondly, north Korea is highlighted as a prosperous nation from an abyss of death and thirdly, the western countries, that had pursued the hostile policy toward north Korea, extended hands of reconciliation to the latter.
Some countries brag about their wealth but are easily defeated in the showdown to defend independence, a lifeline of the country and nation.
Though their dignity is violated, some countries are hardly expressing their will and pursue state policy, reading face of imperialists. There is a tragic story that a head of state was arrested by aggressive troops or in the disgraceful dock.
The world says north Korea is a strong country as it stands against the US which has larger territory and makes desperate efforts to control the world with iron fist, squandering zillions of US dollars for the military expenditure in a year.
The DPRK draws attention of the world people, as it is a dignified counterpart in the showdown with the US when majority countries curry flavor with the US, studying face of it.
The DPRK’s mightiness guarantees peace in the East and the world.
The history of war in the Northeast Asia in the end of 19th century and at the beginning of the 20th century proved hot contest between the big powers were ceaseless when Korea was weak. However, the present reality after 100 years shows when Korea is strong, peace, development and prosperity of Asia and the world are secured.
The south Korean people from all walks of life highly eulogize that their future depends on Kim Jong Il, Chairman of the DPRK National Defense Commission, and his politics guarantees Korea’s reunification. They are grateful that his Songun umbrella prevents a war and their families are blessed.
The DPRK, which experienced unprecedented hardships and worst difficulties, has nothing to afraid of in the world and it is evidenced that erasing the great entity of the DPRK in the history is a preposterous delusion.
It launched an artificial satellite Kwangmyongsong No. 2, sneering at the imperialist reactionaries’ economic sanctions for 60-odd years and it conducted a nuclear test, demonstrating the dignity of the independent power and Songun Korea.
The US and the imperialist reactionaries shiver with righteous military strength and invincible deterrence of the DPRK.
President Kim Il Sung, the sun of the 20th century, is a saviour of the Korean nation and father of socialist Korea who achieved Korea’s liberation by defeating a million-strong Japanese army and built a paradise for the people. Kim Jong Il is a peerless patriot, who provides the Korean people with peace, prosperity and hope by turning the DPRK into an independent Songun power in the world.
As clear sky is unthinkable apart from the sun, a thriving socialist Korea is inconceivable without brilliant commander of Songun.
Korea’s liberation and a new society for the people had been realized by President Kim Il Sung, father of Songun, who frightened the Japanese imperialist. The dawn of thriving nation, peace and prosperity will certainly break in the Korean Peninsula by leader Kim Jong Il, the sun of Songun, who leads the Korean people to the bright future with his energetic field guidance.
