Slogans Set forth by President Kim Il Sung during Anti-Japanese War

Pyongyang, April 24 (KCNA) -- During the anti-Japanese revolutionary struggle, President Kim Il Sung set forth slogans comprehensively dealing with the immutable truth of the revolution and the struggle goals to lead to brilliant victory the Korean people's sacred war for the national liberation.

The slogan "Let us unite with one ideology and will!", advanced by the President when forming the first Juche-type party organization guided by the immortal Juche idea, is brilliantly recorded in the history of building the Workers' Party of Korea as an immutable banner in achieving the organizational and ideological unity of the revolutionary ranks and comradely unity.

The slogan "Arms are our lifeblood. Arms for arms!" was a militant banner that aroused all the Korean people to the anti-Japanese resistance.

Slogans "Find oneself among the people!" and "As fish cannot live without water, so guerrillas cannot live without the people" represent the firm creed that if revolutionaries believe in and rely on the people, they will always emerge victorious, but if they are forsaken by the people, they will always fail.

Training the Children's Corps members into reliable successors to the revolution, the President set forth the slogan "Let us be always ready for the independence of Korea and the liberation of the proletarians over the world!"

With an insight into the importance and significance of studying in training and preparing the members of the Korean People's Revolutionary Army and the broad masses in a revolutionary way, he set forth such slogans as "Studying is also a battle!" and "Studying is the first duty of revolutionaries" to establish a revolutionary habit of studying among units.

His iron will to carry out the Korean revolution by the Korean people's own efforts is reflected in such slogans as "Let us carry out the Korean revolution by our own efforts!" and "Let us direct all our efforts to the final victory in the anti-Japanese war!", set forth by him during the final decisive battles for Korea's liberation.

Those slogans are still now boosting the enthusiasm for the revolution and struggle of the people and service personnel in the DPRK who are dynamically advancing toward a fresh victory in socialist construction under the leadership of the Workers' Party of Korea. -0-
