Pyongyang: No nation aspiring to independence should retreat even a step, but rather courageously struggle against the imperialists. So said the Rodong Sinmun in a by-lined article. It goes on:

Any concession of revolutionary principles means surrender and death. Had some countries which had advocated socialism in the past remained true to revolutionary principles, tragic events such as the breakdown of ruling parties, the collapse of socialism and yielding to the imperialists would never have taken place.

What has taken place in Iraq clearly shows the disastrous consequences of any abandonment of revolutionary principles. The result is that the imperialists resort to ever-more vicious and cunning methods to invade and plunder other nations. Without a struggle against imperialism it is impossible to achieve, defend and consolidate national independence; establish an independent regime; adopt and implement policies in keeping with the desire and will of the people; or ensure national prosperity and the independent development of the country.

Unless they abandon their aggressive and predatory natures, confrontation with the imperialists is unavoidable. So there's no other way but to stand firm against them without concession or retreat. The more pressure the imperialists put, the more resolutely each country and nation should meet it, without being frightened or retreat. Only by doing so will it is possible to win in the standoff with the imperialists. This is an immutable truth.

Imperialism is by no means strong. One should never be frightened by the desperate efforts of imperialists on the verge of ruin. Victory is assured to nations that resolutely stand and fight them.
