KCNA Commentary on LKP's "North Wind" Farce in South Korea

Pyongyang, May 14 (KCNA) -- The conservative group of south Korea has again kicked off the farce of "north wind."

As already reported, the public campaign for petitioning for the dissolution of the "Liberal Korea Party" (LKP) began in south Korea on April 22 and the number of petitioners has exceeded 1.8 million.

Exasperated by this, LKP is talking about "wire-pulling by the north" to tide over the crisis.

The floor leader and others of LKP say they doubt whether "the north is behind the public petition campaign" and exclusion of LKP from discussion on selection of fast track issues among major reform bills at the "National Assembly" is just a deed done at "the beck and call of the north."

At first, LKP asserted that the petitioning campaign doesn't represent "public opinion," witnessing the explosive increase of petitioners. It then doggedly insisted on "fabrication." At last, it is going helter-skelter under the signboard of "coloring theory."

It is going so paranoid that it dares brand a million and hundreds of thousands of people, the ruling party and other opposition parties as "followers of the north" who are "acting under north's manipulation."

It clearly shows the twisted viewpoint of the group of traitors, which regards the people as hordes of pigs and dogs.

It also sheds light on the true colors of a pack of traitors who make no scruple of labeling all the "people" as the "enemy" and doing harm to the compatriots for their political interests.

Such farce of LKP to tide over its political crisis is no longer workable.

LKP should be well aware that its "north wind racket" aimed at grabbing "power" is pushing the pent-up public indignation to violent eruption and bringing a strong head wind only.

It is well evidenced by the recent inauguration of the preparatory committee of the "civil constitutional court for the dissolution of LKP" in Seoul and mounting public criticism in south Korea. South Koreans say that they are increasingly disgusted with the conservative party talking about north's deed and north's manipulation whenever it opens mouth, adding that LKP is pouring scorn on the public and they would not allow it to go with impunity.

The on-line public petition campaign for dissolution of LKP, the biggest one that has ever been observed in south Korea, is just the one LKP invited of its own accord as it always neglects the public and finds its way out in confrontation with the compatriots in the north.

Funeral bells are tolling for LKP whose desperate efforts only throw it deeper into pitfall of isolation and destruction. -0-
