U.S. Termed World's Most Dangerous State

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK

    Pyongyang, December 10 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun Friday in a signed article discloses the true colors of the United States as the world's most dangerous state and worst terrorist nation as it is escalating the "anti-terrorist war" worldwide under the pretext of the "elimination of weapons of mass destruction (WMD)" and "combating terrorism". Recalling that the U.S. tops the world list of military spending and arms sale, the article says that the Bush administration, loudmouthed about the "U.S. mightiness" and "strength-all-mighty" theory, has spent a stupendous amount of money each year to massively produce and export all type WMD including nukes.
    It goes on:
    The U.S. military spending sharply swelled every year: It stood at 310 billion dollars in the fiscal 2001, 343 billion dollars in the fiscal 2002, more than 379 billion dollars in the fiscal 2003 and 401.3 billion dollars in the fiscal 2004.
    The U.S. is the biggest exporter of arms in the world. The arms sale by the U.S. munitions monopolies in 2002 reached 13.3 billion dollars or 45.5 percent of the world total arms sale. In 2003 the U.S. signed arms sale contracts worth more than 14.5 billion dollars with other countries. This was 56.7 percent of the world total arms sale.
    The U.S. is annually providing Israel with military equipment worth billions of dollars.
    The U.S. war-like forces committed military intervention and invasion against other countries including the Persian Gulf War, the Balkan War, the Afghan War and the war of aggression against Iraq by brandishing WMDs which cost a ridiculous amount of money.
    The Bush bellicose group is describing those wars of aggression as ones aimed to ensure "peace" and "democracy". But they, in actuality, only increased the vicious cycle of terror and retaliation and brought peaceful countries confusion, bloodshed, disorder and confrontation and discord between countries.
    The article calls upon the people who value the sovereignty of their countries and peace and aspire after independent development and social progress to rise up as one in anti-U.S. struggle, keenly aware of the criminal nature of the U.S. imperialists' high-handed military actions and their interference in the internal affairs of other countries committed under the signboard of "elimination of WMDs" and "combating terrorism".
