KCNA blasts U.S. lip-service to dialogue

    Pyongyang, January 23 (KCNA) -- "The U.S. is keeping all options on the table in dealing with North Korea's nuclear ambitions", U.S. defense secretary Donald Rumsfeld said when interviewed by Fox TV and ABC on Jan. 19, according to a news report. His remarks prove that the U.S., paying lip-service to "dialogue" and "peaceful settlement," still keeps the DPRK listed as a main target of its preemptive attack and its hostile policy to isolate and stifle it remains unchanged.
    After its emergence the Bush administration singled out the DPRK as part of an "axis of evil" and declared it as a national policy not to recognize the system of the DPRK. It also listed the DPRK as a target of its preemptive nuclear attack, an open declaration of a nuclear war against it. Moreover, it instigated the International Atomic Energy Agency to escalate the moves to stifle the DPRK.
    The DPRK can never remain a mere onlooker to the cry made again by the U.S. defense secretary for an attack on the DPRK at a time when there is the real danger of a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula due to the U.S. vicious hostile policy toward it.
    Rumsfeld again dubbed the DPRK the "biggest ballistic missile disseminator in the world" in a bid to justify the U.S. strategy for reckless preemptive assaults.
    The U.S. is, in fact, not in a position to talk about the proliferation of ballistic missiles.
    The U.S. tops the list of countries producing and selling mass destruction weapons including nuclear weapons, and has the world's biggest military spending to produce and develop those weapons.
    The U.S. has exported 44.8 billion dollars worth of weapons in the last 5 years, becoming the biggest arms exporter. Last year it allocated 281.4 billion dollars as its military spending, stunning the world.
    The U.S. keeps vociferating about a preemptive attack on the DPRK, asserting the need to contain the missiles developed and produced by the DPRK to defend the sovereignty of the country as they can reach not only Japan but the U.S. this once again clearly indicates that the U.S. has no intention to normalize the relations with the DPRK, considering it as the principal enemy of the U.S. and is waiting for a chance to invade it.
    Such reckless moves of the U.S. only compel the people and the people's army of the DPRK to further increase the self-defensive military capability to cope with the U.S. hostile policy toward the DPRK.
