Pyongyang, September 5 (KCNA) -- Rodong Sinmun in an article Tuesday slams the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean puppet forces for staging war drills against the DPRK with mobilization of huge armed forces while finding fault with the latter's just measures for defending its sovereignty.

The recent Ulji Freedom Guardian staged in south Korea is a typical example of them, the article says and goes on:

The U.S. and south Korean warmongers are describing their war drills as "defensive" and "annual", but with no rhetoric can they conceal their scheme to escalate military confrontation and tension on the Korean peninsula and bring dark clouds of a nuclear war to it.

It is the resolute decision and will of the DPRK to put a definite end to the U.S. imperialists and south Korean puppet forces' moves to ignite a nuclear war on the Korean peninsula.

The DPRK's recent successful test of ICBM-ready H-bomb marked a very significant occasion in attaining the final goal of completing its state nuclear force. The detonation of H-bomb which stunned the world reflects the firm will of the army and people of the DPRK to give telling blows to the invaders and sweep the U.S. off the surface of the earth if the enemies dare to make a preemptive attack.

The enemies should not run amuck, clearly understanding that the army and people of the DPRK, sure to beat any formidable forces at a go, will never show mercy. -0-
