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

   Pyongyang, June 12 (KCNA) -- The Workers' Party of Korea is a revolutionary party which is triumphantly accelerating the cause of socialism with the might of idea with a tight grasp on idea as the keystone, states Rodong Sinmun in an article Tuesday.
    The author of the article continues:
    Today when the struggle for the building of a great prosperous powerful nation is progressing apace, the powerful weapon tightly held by the WPK is the ideological work and the main key to all victories and successes lies in invigorating this work.
    Arming the whole society with socialist patriotism is a work to firmly arm all the members of society with socialist patriotism and train them as ardent patriots devotedly striving for the prosperity and development of the country.
    In the whole course of guiding the revolution and construction, the WPK has directed primary efforts to arming the Party members and other working people with the idea of socialist patriotism, keeping a tight hold on the theory of ideology. The WPK set it forth as the main task of the ideological work to implant patriotic faith deep into the hearts of the popular masses and has steadily strengthened it. Under its wise guidance the Korean people have grown into revolutionaries of Juche type and true patriots making socialism their conviction and morality, and they are devoting all their strength and enthusiasm to the prosperity of the motherland.
    To arm the whole society with socialist patriotism is the cardinal demand in firmly defending the Korean-style socialist system and the revolutionary gains from the imperialist aggression.
    Today the army and people of the DPRK are reliably defending the socialist system, their cradle of life, cherishing socialism as what keeps them alive.
    The U.S. imperialists and the reactionaries are resorting to every conceivable means to pull down Korean-style socialism. However, no aggressive move and psychological artifice of the enemies can ever work with the army and people of the DPRK who are further sharpening the bayonet of the revolution and of the class with ardent love for the socialist motherland and burning hatred for the class enemies.
    To arm the whole society with socialist patriotism is a decisive guarantee for a new leap in the building of the economic power today, and it is an important requirement to fully preserve the national character in all spheres of social life and further glorify the superb national culture and tradition.
