U.S. Arms Build-Up for War against DPRK under Fire

   Pyongyang, January 23 (KCNA) -- Recently the United States deployed a wing of F-117 Stealth fighter bombers and at least 300 support personnel in south Korea. In this regard a news analyst of Rodong Sinmun Tuesday says this is a very dangerous move for arms buildup to put military pressure on the DPRK and ignite the second Korean war.
    What should not be overlooked is that the U.S. imperialists are contemplating deploying 12 F-22A Stealth fighters and more than 250 military personnel in the U.S. military base in Kadena, Okinawa Prefecture of Japan next month to keep pace with the deployment of the above-said war hardware, the news analyst notes, and goes on:
    Their plan to deploy these fighters in the Kadena base suggests that they are attaching special importance to their base for aggression in Okinawa and focusing the greatest efforts on carrying out their Korean strategy to dominate Asia.
    The U.S. massive deployment of air task forces in south Korea and Okinawa, a move to unleash another Korean war, is a blatant challenge to the mindset of the world people desirous of a peaceful settlement of the nuclear issue and the peace and security on the Korean Peninsula and a criminal act of deliberately aggravating the military confrontation and tensions in this region.
    The "dialogue" and "peace" much touted by the U.S. is nothing but sophism intended to conceal its true colors as an aggressor and its sinister intention to invade the DPRK. The U.S. imperialists are whetting the sword of aggression, watching for a chance to attack the DPRK.
    The option for military action is not a monopoly of the U.S. The DPRK also has an option for military action for self-defence. It is fully ready to cope with any option of the U.S.
    The U.S. would be well advised to coolly face up to the reality and stop at once its reckless military moves to strain the situation on the Korean Peninsula and bring the danger of war to it.
