Papers on 52nd Anniversary of Victory in War

Korean Central News Agency of DPRK via Korea News Service (KNS)

    Pyongyang, July 27 (KCNA) -- Papers Wednesday dedicate editorials to the 52nd anniversary of the victory in the great Fatherland Liberation War. Korea wrought a military miracle of having defeated the formidable imperialist enemy incomparably superior in number or in military technique and equipment, reversing the imagination and anticipation of the world, Rodong Sinmun says, and goes on:
    The victory in the war is a brilliant victory of the gifted military wisdom and outstanding leadership art of President Kim Il Sung.
    The Fatherland Liberation War was the historical event which opened a new turning phase in carving out the destiny of the country and the nation and in accomplishing the cause of global independence. By winning the victory in the war, the Korean People's Army (KPA) and the Korean people fully displayed the invincible mettle of heroic Korea, broke the myth of the U.S. imperialists' "mightiness" for the first time in history, brought about the beginning of decline for them and opened a new era of the anti-imperialist, anti-U.S. struggle.
    It is the brilliant fruition of the outstanding and tested leadership of Supreme Commander of the KPA Kim Jong Il that the exploits performed by the President in winning the victory in the war are being carried forward for scores of years and our army and people have won victory after victory on the forefront of the anti-imperialist struggle.
    Kim Jong Il, son of Mt. Paektu, is the greatest general and the extraordinary brilliant commander of Songun who has fully personified the character and qualification of a brilliant commander in the highest level.
    Thanks to his energetic leadership of the Songun revolution, our army has been strengthened into the invincible and revolutionary army of Mt. Paektu enough to smash any unexpected attack of the enemy at one blow and our people could build the firm foundation for building a great prosperous powerful nation despite all sorts of hardships. Kim Jong Il created the invincible political mode of Songun and built up the whole country as an impregnable bulwark and won a great victory in the struggle to defend socialism. This is the greatest exploit performed by him in glorifying the idea and cause of the President.
    None other than our army and people have won victory in the revolutionary war against the imperialists, emerged ever-victorious in the political and military confrontation with no gunfire and firmly defended their own ideology, cause and system. The great exploits in winning victory in the war are the precious and viable treasure of our country and nation and the source of imbuing our army and people with the conviction of certain victory as long as imperialism remains in the earth and the anti-imperialist struggle continues.
    The Korean revolution will be ever-victorious as long as there are the greatest-ever commander Kim Jong Il who is revered by the world and leading Korea with his unique Songun politics and the single-minded unity of our army and people rallied around the headquarters of the revolution as firm as a rock.
