    Pyongyang, March 11 (KCNA) -- It is a very urgent and important task of the Korean nation to prevent a war and defend peace, says Rodong Sinmun Saturday in a signed article. For the past decades the Korean Peninsula has witnessed constant military tension and a dangerous situation under which a war may break out any moment. The U.S. is to blame for this, the article says, and goes on:
    The U.S. has divided Korea and escalated military tensions in the peninsula with its reckless moves for a war of aggression, thus harassing peace and peaceful reunification of Korea.
    The U.S. imperialists are more frantically scheming to provoke a nuclear war than ever before in a bid to realize their criminal ambition to preempt a nuclear attack on the DPRK and dominate the whole of Korea at any cost.
    The U.S. is constantly maneuvering in and around south Korea to provoke a new war against the DPRK while kicking up a smear campaign to pressurize it in the international arena.
    It is clear to everyone that the danger of war is looming in the peninsula due to the U.S. imperialist aggressors.
    Reconciliation, cooperation, reunification and prosperity are unthinkable without nation and territory.
    All the fellow countrymen should turn out as one in the movement for peace against the U.S. and war to defend the destiny of the nation under the uplifted banner of "By our nation itself".
    Fire should be returned for fire and a sledge-hammer blow should be dealt at aggressors.
    The great Songun politics serves as a treasured sword for sure victory as it prevents aggression and war of outside forces, defends sovereignty and peace of the country and the nation and paves the way for national reunification and prosperity. All the Koreans should positively support and uphold in one patriotic mind the patriotic Songun politics which protects the whole nation.
