Tightened U.S.-Japan Military Nexus Lambasted

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

   Pyongyang, December 22 (KCNA) -- Aggression and plunder are the intrinsic nature of the U.S. imperialists and the Japanese militarists and their mode of existence, says Rodong Sinmun Saturday in a signed article. It denounces the U.S. and Japan for their moves to tighten their military tie-up for aggression and domination.
    Citing facts to prove that the U.S. and the Japanese reactionaries have long committed aggression, war, domination and plunder, it goes on:
    They share the ideas of aggression, hegemony and national chauvinism.
    It is their strategic aim and ambition to invade and dominate other countries and nations and conquer the world.
    What is noteworthy in their moves to tighten the military nexus is that they are pushing forward military integration in real earnest above all.
    They intend to regard it as their common strategic duty and mode of operational actions to realize the integration of the U.S. forces and the "Self-Defense Forces" and expand their operational theatre worldwide.
    They are frantic in their moves to establish the missile defense system (MD) colluding with each other. This is a new dangerous aspect in their moves to tighten their military tie-up.
    What merits a more serious attention is that they are staging madcap exercises for missile defence as part of their moves to establish the MD.
    They are contemplating coordinating the operation and command system and staging mobile and smooth joint operations in "contingency" through intensified joint military exercises of various forms. Frantic joint exercises of forces of various services and combined joint exercises of the U.S. and Japan now under way in Japan and its vicinity and the rest of the Pacific region are aimed to achieve the above-said purpose.
    Their military tie-up is mainly targeted against the DPRK. They regard the Korean Peninsula, the gateway to Asia, as their strategic stronghold and a bridgehead to conquer Asia as they have a precedent and experience of aggression of Korea.
    Prompted by such common strategic aim and ambition, they desperately pursue their hostile policy toward the DPRK and collude with each other in the frantic moves for a war of aggression against it.
    They would be well advised to behave themselves, pondering over the consequences to be entailed by their reckless military tie-up.
