OPPOSE THE DOUBLE DEALING OF US IMPERIALISM!
Rodong Sinmun Calls for Frustrating U.S. Carrot and Stick Policy
Pyongyang, April 1 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists have become more sinister and crafty in their carrot and stick policy towards the DPRK and other countries. The U.S. could not behave as it pleased when the former Soviet Union stood firm against it. But when renegades of socialism came to power and made one concession after another, the U.S. took a tough attitude towards it and buckled down to bringing it to a collapse. Its carrot tactics succeeded in doing so.
After the Gulf War, the U.S. put pressure upon Iraq in various aspects.
When Iraq yielded to its pressure by making concessions in various fields, the U.S. set the no-fly zone in the air above the country as it pleased, sent a U.N. weapons inspection team there to scour all the targets including presidential palaces and succeeded in invading and occupying Iraq by force of arms with ease. Its stick tactics worked there.
Rodong Sinmun Thursday in a signed article called for maintaining the utmost vigilance against the U.S. carrot tactics and building up forces strong enough to cope with its stick tactics.
Aggression and plunder represent the invariable nature of the U.S. imperialists, the article observed, and went on: The U.S. imperialists have used the carrot tactics in order to appease and deceive their rival, weaken and calm down his anti-U.S. sentiment and create illusion about them.
The U.S. has employed a variety of the carrot tactics such as "peace," "aid" and "cooperation" to cover up nooses and thorn hidden in them.
The U.S. imperialists become coward before the strong but get ferocious before the weak. They dare not wield a stick before the countries strong in political and ideological capability and enormous in military muscle.
For the last several decades they have left no means untried to stifle the DPRK. The basic method employed by them is to stifle it by force of arms.
Their nukes, carrier flotillas, strategic bombers and various types of missiles are involved in this stick tactics. The U.S. says that it has "no intention to invade north Korea." But this only betrays its ambition to dominate the whole of Korea at any cost by applying the carrot and the stick to the DPRK.
The article called upon the world progressive countries and peoples to clearly see through the U.S. imperialists' tactics for aggression and check and frustrate their crafty and vicious moves for aggression.
U.S. Double-dealing Tactics under Fire
Pyongyang, April 27 (KCNA) -- The U.S. imperialists are resorting to sinister and crafty acts, pursuing a carrot-and-stick policy in their aggression on and pillage in other countries. Carrot and stick are their hackneyed means of aggression. Rodong Sinmun says this in an article Wednesday. Noting that the U.S., which held its head too high, pursuing unilateralism and arbitrariness in the international arena, is resorting to ever craftier double-dealing tactics, finding itself "a general without an army" forsaken by its allies, the author of the article goes on:
The U.S. has clung to the double-dealing policy of carrot and stick down through history.
The U.S. outwardly cries out for "respect" and "friendship" between countries, but viciously seeks behind the scene aggression, military intervention and subversive acts against others. And, while advocating "cooperation" and "aid," it actually exploits them as the means of subjugating other countries politically and economically.
On the other hand, the U.S. has employed the stick tactics to win some Southeast Asian countries over to its side.
The U.S. tenaciously resorted to the double-dealing tactics toward the former Soviet Union, the first socialist state.
Its stick did not work when the former Soviet Union stood firm against it. But, when renegades of socialism came to power there and made one concession after another, the U.S. resorted to the carrot tactics to drive it to collapse.
The Iraqi situation shows more clearly what a miserable lot one meets if one backs down and yields to imperialism.
Today the U.S. is pressuring Iran over the "nuclear issue" and even scheming a military attack aimed at a change of power after labeling it as part of the "axis of evil" and an "outpost of tyranny."
One must stand firm against the U.S. stick tactics and be on the alert against the carrot tactics, not tempted by it Some countries in Africa which had once taken a stiff stand toward the U.S. are now succumbing to it, wanting its aid, discouraged by its invasion and occupation of Iraq. They, however, lament belatedly that they were duped by the U.S. promise of "aid."
The world progressive countries and people should frustrate the U.S. imperialists' crafty and vicious double-dealing tactics of carrot and stick, seeing through their hypocritical and aggressive nature.
