   Pyongyang, June 29 (KCNA) -- The originality and tremendous vitality of the Songun policy pursued by the Workers' Party of Korea are based on a new clarification made about the main force of the revolution, notes Rodong Sinmun Friday in a signed article.
    Explaining in detail that only a group which is more loyal to the cause of the Party and the leader and stronger in revolutionary spirit and the sense of organization and unity than any class and group involved in the revolution and which sets an example for other members of the revolutionary ranks to follow in thinking, faith and spiritual and moral traits can play the role of a main force of the revolution, the article goes on:
    Kim Jong Il, while providing energetic Songun revolutionary leadership for nearly half a century since the 1960s, clarified the law governing the development of the revolutionary cause that starts and advances thanks to the leading and pivotal role of the revolutionary army and, on this basis, opened up a new chapter of the socialist policy which calls for depending on the might of the revolutionary army. The idea and theory of Kim Jong Il that the arms guarantees peace and socialism and the military affairs are the most important national affair proceeded from the Juche-oriented point of view on the decisive role of the arms.
    The validity and vitality of the WPK's Songun policy based on the fresh elucidation of the main force of the revolution have been fully proved in the revolutionary practice.
    The Korean People's Army is the strong revolutionary army of Mt. Paektu fully prepared politically and ideologically and in military technique and the matchless revolutionary armed forces capable of decisively frustrating the imperialists' moves for aggression and firmly defending the country, the revolution and the socialist cause.
    The KPA's transparent spirit of devotedly defending the leader has become the steadfast faith and will of all the Korean people and its revolutionary comradeship served as a main source of the unbreakable single-minded unity of the society.
    The ardent trait of assisting the people displayed by the People's Army has remarkably encouraged the people's enthusiasm to assist the army and the unity of the army and people in thinking and fighting spirit have helped further augment the politico-ideological might of the Korean revolution, the foundation of the society, than ever before.
    The army and people are sharing weal and woe, united in thinking, will, destiny and the view on the future. This Songun revolutionary unity today guarantees great victory of the WPK's Songun policy and means the true picture of Songun Korea.
