U.S. Imperialists' Reckless Nuclear Hysteria Assailed

Pyongyang, March 25 (KCNA) -- The U.S. Center for Strategic and International Studies in a recent report on the "U.S. Department of Defense and nuclear strategy in the 21st century" claimed that the U.S. is still exposed to the threat from "possibility of preemptive nuclear attack" by the DPRK. It went the lengths of stressing the need to set up a "nuclear command" while asserting that the U.S. administration should pay attention to bolstering nuclear deterrent to cope with this.
Minju Joson Tuesday in a commentary terms this a revelation of the U.S. criminal scheme to secure its nuclear preponderance under the pretext of someone's "nuclear threat" and realize its ambition for world supremacy by brandishing nukes.
The U.S. is stepping up modernization of nuclear weapons while talking about the "possibility of preemptive nuclear attack" by the DPRK. This was prompted by its aims to mount a surprise attack on the DPRK by securing a nuclear upper-hand, the commentary says, and goes on:
In recent years the U.S. planned to produce 125 nukes of new type every year and decided to set up a combined centre for producing nuclear material to this end. It is the scheme of the U.S. nuclear war maniacs to produce smaller and advanced nukes with strong explosive power that can be used in wars like conventional weapons.
It contemplates investing as many as 100 billion U.S. dollars in the development of new-type nuclear warheads and starting the full-dress production of them in 2012.
Such moves of the U.S. compel the DPRK to build up its powerful war deterrent to cope with them.
The U.S. nuclear war maniacs would be well advised to behave themselves, pondering over the grave consequences to be entailed by their reckless moves for modernizing nuclear weapons.
