Papers on Danger of "Reorganization" of U.S. Forces in S. Korea.

Pyongyang, October 12 (KCNA) -- Newspapers here today term the U.S. moves to "reorganize" its forces in south Korea a dangerous adventure as it disturbs peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and drives the situation to catastrophe. What the U.S. seeks through this is to increase the capability of its armed forces to carry out war actions against the DPRK and arm the south Korean army with heavy and advanced weapons by stepping up their "reorganization" under the signboard of "transfer of the right to command wartime operations" and thus use it as a shock force in a second Korean war.
Rodong Sinmun observes this in a commentary.
The "reorganization" of the U.S. forces in south Korea is escalating the tension on the Korean Peninsula while increasing the danger of another war, the commentary says, and goes on:
Despite this grave situation, the south Korean war-like forces are busy with arms buildup and north-targeted war exercises, joining the U.S. in its moves to invade the DPRK. Such actions can never be pardoned as they are acts of treachery going against the June 15 joint declaration and bringing the inter-Korean relations to the brink of war.
They are bound to be sternly punished by history and the nation for such wrongdoings.
If the U.S. ignites a war against the DPRK, it will suffer a bitter defeat. The U.S. should make a radical switchover in its anachronistic Korea policy and pull all its aggression forces out of south Korea and its vicinity, urges Minju Joson in a commentary.
