U.S. Talk about North's Nuclear Red Line Flailed

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, December 3 (KCNA) -- The United States is these days escalating its moves to pressurize the DPRK by force of arms and preempt an attack on it over its nuclear issue. One of them is its fuss over "north's nuclear limit line" or red line. The red line means a limit to the DPRK's promotion of "nuclear program" unilaterally set by the U.S. Rodong Sinmun Friday carries a signed article in this regard.
    It says:
    The U.S. has so far persistently put pressure upon the DPRK while spreading distorted rumors about its nuclear issue. Recently it has gone the length of talking about the red line and threatening "a military punishment". This is aimed to provoke the second Korean war come what may, charging the DPRK with the "possession of nuclear weapons" and "sponsorship of terrorism."
    The Bush forces are extensively setting afloat the wild rumor that terrorists can gain access to the nuclear-related substances of the DPRK and this may gravely jeopardize the security of the U.S. if Pyongyang's "nuclear program" is not checked, saying it may have produced several atomic bombs at least after it pulled out of the NPT.
    This is nothing but an anti-DPRK smear campaign pursuant to the scenario of the second Korean war and a trick to secure a justification to provoke a war under the pretext of "proliferation of nuclear-related substance" by the DPRK.
    The U.S. warlike forces are bluffing that they would undertake the Korean war with the mobilization of its navy and air forces.
    The U.S. imperialists have massively introduced sea and air task forces in the Asia-Pacific region surrounding the Korean Peninsula, notably in Japan and south Korea. After making full preparations for the war the U.S. now seeks to preempt an attack on the DPRK any moment under the pretext of its nuclear limit line and ignite the powder train of the war against it.
    The U.S. current allegations that the DPRK is not too much interested in the resumption of the six-party talks and it is pursuing the nuclear program while employing a delaying tactics are just part of its propaganda campaign to create the impression that the north's nuclear red line is surfacing in reality.
    The U.S. has already declared a war against the DPRK under the world's eyes by designating it as part of an "axis of evil" and a target of nuclear strikes. Now the U.S. bellicose forces are going to make the red line the starting point of a war.
    They had better stop crying for the north's nuclear red line and make a switchover in its policy intended to stifle the DPRK.
