| Bush Hit For Slandering DPRK |
| 2003-01-31 |
| The official statment, in all it's rabid glory Pyongyang, January 30 (KCNA) -- A spokesman for the Foreign Ministry of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea today issued a statement accusing U.S. President Bush of committing such a very grave provocation as malignantly slandering the DPRK in a "state of union address" at congress on January 29. The statement said: Bush said an oppressive regime rules a people. He further said we now know that the regime was deceiving the world, and developing those weapons all along, and today the North Korean regime is using its nuclear program to incite fear and seek concessions. Bush has so far earned an ill-fame as an emotional backbiter, but his recent address clearly proves that he is a shameless charlatan reversing black and white under the eyes of the world and the incarnation of misanthropy as he rejects the people out of his favor for no reason. I think they just pick words out of the air and throw them around... No sooner had he come to power than he, prompted by the deep-rooted hostility toward the socialist system in the DPRK, described the DPRK as part of an "axis of evil" only to invite worldwide criticism and condemnation and retract his remarks in less than one year. I never saw the retraction. Anyone else? When the international community expressed deep apprehensions in the wake of his remarks listing the DPRK as a target of preemptive nuclear attacks, Bush, commander-in-chief, said in great haste that the U.S. had no intention to invade North Korea. But, in actuality, he sent an aircraft carrier to the East Sea of Korea. Otherwise known to the rest of the world as the Sea of Japan.How egocentric are these people? The Korean people is a peace-loving people who never had their eyes on other country,...except for that minor episode in the 50's. a nation whose history began thousands of years ago when the U.S. did not exist in the world. Before even Kim Il Sung dragged his knuckles across the ground The demands of the DPRK still remain simple. The DPRK does not seek to gain concessions from the U.S. by threatening it as Bush claimed, but urges the U.S. to stop its intervention and threat so that the Korean people may live in peace for themselves as they did when such a country as the U.S. did not exist. You know, back in the Bronze Age. From this purport the DPRK proposed the U.S. to legally assure each other of non-aggression. The U.S. has deployed nuclear weapons in one part of Korea which has nothing to do with it and posed a nuclear threat to the DPRK, causing the nuclear issue to surface on the Korean Peninsula. The U.S. was the first to have nuclear weapons and emerged as the world's largest possessor of weapons of mass destruction. Yet it is trying to mislead the public opinion by spreading the rumor that the DPRK is chiefly to blame for the nuclear issue. This is the height of shamelessness. OUT-rageous! as Tom Dashcle would say. The reckless remarks made by Bush in his official speech dealing with the year's national policy cannot but reflect the stand and policy of the present U.S. administration. This policy speech is, in essence, an undisguised declaration of aggression to topple the DPRK system. The U.S. ulterior motive in having persistently dodged the DPRK's proposal for concluding a non-aggression treaty between the DPRK and the U.S. has now been brought to daylight. The U.S. is seriously mistaken if it thinks the DPRK will remain a passive onlooker to the U.S. reckless moves to dare topple the DPRK system which was chosen and built by the Korean people themselves and is considered by them as their life and soul. That's why we have those special camps We will never allow the U.S. to wantonly encroach upon the sovereignty and dignity of the DPRK and destroy its system. We will do our utmost to defend our system in view of the U.S. declaration of aggression. Nobody can spit it out like KCNA |

| #9 Dang tu3031! You made me laugh out loud in the work place. Rifle301, that article was a good one and should have been linked more in the blogosphere. Author says nothing about policy and shows sympathy for the collaborationists (families torn apart, etc.) but is ultimately damning of the regime. |

| #4 After reading this, I have come to the conclusion that it's high time for U.S. forces to leave South Korea for good and let them fend for themselves. If in the process of playing footsie with the North Koreans they get fried, wll, as the old saying goes, tough shit. |

| #3 My wife is a clinical psychologist. I'll give her the article and see what she makes of it. We need some more rigorous terms than "fruitcake" to describe these guys. |

| #1 As to how arrogant and out of touch these guys are go read the piece in The New York Times Review of Books(Did I get that name right?) about a Korean-American's visit to N. Korea in 2001. I believe it is the current issue. It was during the current head thug's 2001 birthday bash and a propaganda visit by S.Koreans and craven (not the writer) Korean-Americans. The N.Korean officials tried to recruit the author to say the "truth" about N.Korea to the world. They dangled the possibility of finding her great-uncle last seen as a prisoner at the beginning of the Korean war! Scumbags. Incompetent ones too, they couldn't even provide heat in the guest apartments.... |
