DPRK quite different from Iraq

KCNA

    Pyongyang, June 11 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun today carries a commentator's article in connection with the lapse of 10 years since the DPRK-U.S. New York joint statement was published. The U.S. pressure upon the DPRK over its nuclear issue and reckless moves to start a nuclear war have gone beyond the danger line since the end of the Iraqi war, the article says, and goes on:
    The U.S. is well advised to clearly understand that the DPRK is quite different from Iraq.
    The DPRK is an ideologically and politically and militarily strong power. It considers the most viable Songun policy, the single-hearted unity and the self-reliant national defence power as its lifeline. It has its own operation plan, strategy and method of strike.
    The psychological warfare, "precision strike", "surgical operation strike" and "preemptive strike" are not a monopoly of the U.S.
    The DPRK is ready to retaliate against the "precision strike", "surgical operation strike" and "preemptive nuclear attack".
    Any "nuclear umbrella" and "missile shield" will prove ineffective in face of the DPRK's powerful strike. The U.S. vicious psychological warfare and "shock and terror operation" will never work on the DPRK.
    A war is neither a sports match nor an amusement game. It is a life-and-death battle.
    If a new Korean war breaks out, it will be quite different from the Iraqi war which can not be considered as a real war.
    The U.S. invasion of the DPRK in the 21st century would lead to a new world war. If the Bush bellicose forces ignite the second Korean war at any cost in the new century, oblivious of the historical lesson and warnings, they will know what a real war is like and only death and doom will await the aggressors.
    They will only hear the American dirge on the Korean Peninsula.
