Rodong Sinmun on Kim Il Sung's Feats for Global Independence

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

   Pyongyang, April 11 (KCNA) -- President Kim Il Sung was a peerlessly great person and an elder statesman of the world in the 20th century who had led the cause of global independence to victory with his great idea and extraordinary leadership ability, says Rodong Sinmun Wednesday in a signed article.
    Referring to the greatness of the President as a gifted thinker and theoretician, the article says:
    He fathered the immortal Juche idea and gave clear and perfect exposition of the urgent problems arising in the national liberation movement in colonial countries and in the building of a new society in newly independent countries.
    He also comprehensively clarified the essence of the cause of global independence and its ultimate goals, features of an independent world and its requirements and international relationship to be established in such world and provided ideological and theoretical guidelines for victory of the cause of socialism in the 20th century.
    He defined the philosophical principle that man is responsible for his own destiny and has strength to carve it out and the truth of revolution that one should hew out one's own destiny and achieve the independent development of one's country and nation in reliance upon one's own strength. This is the most brilliant of his ideological and theoretical exploits.
    On the peculiarity of brilliant activities conducted by the President to lead the cause of global independence to steady progress and victory, the article says:
    He had always maintained the stand of Juche that calls for contributing to the cause of global independence through the successful Korean revolution based on the organic combination of the national duty and international duty in making revolution.
    He had steadfastly kept the revolutionary principle of independence against imperialism under any circumstances and always rendered disinterested assistance to the peoples of revolutionary and progressive countries.
    What holds the brilliant position in his distinguished revolutionary activities to victoriously advance the cause of global independence was that in the grim historic period when he was leading the Korean people's anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, he ushered in the new era of the national liberation struggle in colonial countries and set the worldwide example in ensuring the international united front and joint action against imperialism and fully supporting the revolutionary struggles in other countries.
    He also led the Korean people's great Fatherland Liberation War against the U.S. imperialist aggressors to victory and thus brought about the beginning of decline for the U.S. imperialists for the first time in history and opened up the era of new surge in the struggle against imperialism and the U.S.
    Kim Il Sung's historic exploits for global independence are now creditably being carried forward and glorified by Kim Jong Il who is identical to the President in ideology, leadership and personality.
