U.S. Arms Buildup Will Be Unwise Option Bolstering up Uncertainty of Its Mainland Security

Pyongyang, May 3 (KCNA) -- Following is the full text of an article "The U.S. arms buildup will be an unwise option to further increase uncertainty of its mainland security " issued by a military commentator of the DPRK on Saturday:

Recently, the fact that an interceptor drill simulating the so-called ICBM attack of an enemy state was conducted under the inspection of the U.S. Secretary of the Army at the Fort Greely military base in Alaska State of the U.S. was disclosed.

The drill, which was conducted under the signboard of "defense of the mainland", is, in essence, a military action of an offensive nature that made a nuclear war with the DPRK a fait accompli.

If the U.S. does not seek a nuclear war with the DPRK, it will not happen that the strategic nuclear force of the DPRK targets the U.S. mainland and there is no need to talk about the so-called "interception".

The fact that the DPRK's ICBM was designated as an intercepting target proves that the U.S. is making preemptive nuclear attack on the DPRK a fait accompli and mastering counteraction to retaliatory strike.

The U.S. arms buildup for attack to secure military edge in the region is being recently conducted more intensively and openly on the Korean peninsula and in the region.

The U.S. 7th Air Force announced a plan to move 31 F-16 fighters from the Kunsan Air Force Base in the ROK to the Osan Air Force Base to form the second "super-powerful wing" and is examining the plan of constantly deploying 20 F-35A stealth fighters in Kunsan. This proves that the appearance of the ultra-modern attack means of the U.S. Air Force specializing in preemptive strike has entered the stage of countdown near the southern border of the DPRK.

Earlier, the U.S. additionally deployed F-35A stealth fighters at the Kadena Air Force Base in January and F-35B stealth fighters at the Iwakuni Air Force Base in March. Shortly ago, two B-1B strategic bombers were stationed for a long time at the Misawa Air Force Base under the pretext of rotational deployment.

As a result, the surrounding area of the Korean peninsula turned into a huge sortie base where the strategic assets of the U.S. Air Force, including B-1B strategic bombers, F-22 stealth fighters and three kinds of stealth fighters of F-35 series, were massively assembled.

The U.S. air combat power buildup is a revelation of its extremely dangerous military intention both in name and reality to ensure the superiority of the command of the air in contingency and raise the promptness and efficiency of the nuclear preemptive attack capability on the DPRK through the operational combination of strategic bombers and main fighters.

All the circumstances prove that the U.S. arms buildup to raise the level of war preparations in all aspects of attack and defense has entered the stage of mastering practical action, far beyond the level of demonstration.

The building of the strongest offensive and defensive power capable of overwhelmingly suppressing any form of military threat posed by the U.S. arms buildup directly aiming at the DPRK is the best option for deterring the danger of the outbreak of a nuclear war and ensuring the balance of strength on the Korean peninsula.

The U.S. arms buildup which made military attack on the DPRK a fait accompli will be an unwise option bolstering up the uncertainty of its mainland security. -0-
