Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the Central Committee of the Workers’ Party of Korea, released the following press statement on Thursday:

The sound of a hollow drum is louder.

Empty vessels make the greatest sound. An event marking the "ROK Armed Forces’ Day" held in Seoul on Tuesday was like it.

This time the ROK invited lots of cohorts and staged a series of such farces as ceremony and street march to commemorate the "ROK Armed Forces’ Day".

It displayed more than 80 kinds of military hardware, including the "three-axis system" and manned or unmanned weapon system, talking with all rhetoric about the appearance of "a strong national army" and "demonstration of deterrent against the north".

To say a word about such event, it was no more than a foolish farce, with neither trace nor echo like that a group of curs passed across a stream.

However, that event was so loudly advertised by the ROK. So, I am going to comment on it with a few sentences.

Really distinctive was that a U.S. forces’ B-1B strategic bomber appeared as the main player of the event and reviewed the ROK army.

Amid the U.S. B-1B strategic bomber flying over Seoul, the military chief of the ROK and his stooges and the three services of the puppet armed forces were courteously lining up to pay regards to it. The scene was so pitiful to see alone. It may be unique in the world military parade history and the best scene that can be produced only in the colonial ROK.

Great irony is that, not content with the B-1B, the puppets put on the stage an odd monster called "Hyonmu-5" ballistic missile, embellished with absurd sophism that it is little short of a tactical nuclear weapon class as its warhead weights eight tons.

Perhaps, the ROK puppets have a strange way of thinking that a conventional warhead, if its powder increases in weight, can be transformed into a nuclear warhead.

It may be appropriate for demonstration or appeasement, but the world people cannot but question about its military use.

Who would make such a "huge cart" for the launch of merely eight-ton warhead. The reason is that it only looks like a monster to launch the eight-ton warhead.

I can simply explain the military effectiveness and might of our multiple rocket launchers by comparison with it.

The launching capacity of our one multiple rocket launcher, which is not equal to half the size of the "deformed cart", is calculated to be equal to 900 tons of explosive power in terms of the explosive capacity of a conventional warhead.

If a man has a certain degree of common sense, he could not talk about the "end of regime" of someone with a weapon of worthless large bulk.

They must know the shame.

If it had not been opened to public, the "mysterious ghost weapon" would have been more effective in propaganda.

However desperately they may try to show that they are not being pushed back from the confrontation of strength, this is a foolish act before the nuclear weapons state. And they proved by themselves once again that they can never cross the wall of inferiority in strength, the fate of a non-nuclear weapon state.

Media boasted of the transporter erector launcher’s mobile ability of sidewise movement, which is only a necessary function when parking.

Next, let us mention Yoon Suk Yeol’s remarks that the event was more significant with the establishment of a "strategic command" of the ROK.

The group, which has failed to possess a single strategic weapon, cooked up the "strategic command". This is little short of a mange-affected dog wearing a helmet.

No matter how much the dog may wear helmets, it can’t be a tiger or a lion.

Nevertheless, Yoon clamored in full tide of passion that they have a "core strategic force giving faith and trust to the population". It is nothing but a hungry dog barking with joy of getting a bone.

Yoon, who entrusted the security to his master and bragged about his strength by relying on it, had been a little naïve in my view.

Tragedy is that Yoon could not realize at all that all the recent despicable behaviors are hastening the time-table for self-destruction.

Though the head of our state put a precondition of the word "if", he re-clarified the stand to use all the offensive forces of the country without hesitation if the ROK attempts a military confrontation with the DPRK, being overconfident of the ROK-U.S. alliance.

The confrontation outcry, raised by Yoon Suk Yeol with war fever this time, is no more than a last-ditch scream of a guy at death’s door.

Even if he was mad over bluffing, it was none other than an exposure of anxious and impatient psychology without filtering.

What the ROK clans clearly showed through the recent farce from the beginning to the end is that the ROK, trained completely into a cheap mercenary of the U.S. and reduced to a bullet-shield for realizing its master’s ambition for hegemony, is fearlessly dashing into the bottomless pit of downfall, together with the U.S. falling into decay and ruin with each passing day.

Then, the world people will surely comment on it. Is the event marking the ROK "army day" a "boast of strength" by the group of curs or a funeral procession of colonial mercenary army?

The answer is clear.
