North Korea: 'U.S. invading countries to achieve world domination'

PYONGYANG (BNO NEWS) -- The United States is using the "War on Terror" as an excuse to invade other countries in order to achieve 'world domination', North Korea alleged on Monday.

North Korea, through its state-controlled Korean Central News Agency (KCNA), said America's anti-terror operations are aimed to put major areas rich in natural resources and strategic strongholds under its 'military domination.'

"It is widely known that the U.S. established its control over Afghanistan and Iraq, strategic strongholds and major areas abundant in resources, through its wars there," the article in state media said, which is seen as a representation of official government policy.

North Korea also said that the United States is intensifying its 'undisguised interference' in the internal affairs of Pakistan and military activities, likely referring to the increased number of U.S. drone attacks against suspected terror targets inside Pakistan.

"Nowadays, the U.S. is leaving no means untried to secure a pretext for launching a military invasion of Iran," the report said. "Its ulterior motive is to 'engage' Pakistan which borders on Iran and lay a military siege to the latter in a bid to pressurize it and achieve a sinister aim. This goes to clearly prove that not only [the Middle East] but the rest of the world can never be in peace as long as the above-said U.S. strategy persists."

This U.S. strategy, North Korea believes, is to 'contain its rivals and anti-imperialist independent countries' and turn the world into a 'unipolar one under its domination.' "Can the leopard change its spots?," state media asked. "The same can be said of the aggressive and predatory nature of the U.S., the boss of imperialism."

North Korea further said the United States is planning to invade and 'dominate' North Korea. "By pursuing its 'anti-terror' strategy, the U.S. seeks to invade, dominate and control this country today and do the same against [an]other country tomorrow in a bid to expand the sphere of its domination worldwide," it concluded.

The so-called "War on Terror" was launched in response to the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the United States. On that date, two hijacked airliners crashed into both towers of the World Trade Center in New York. Another airliner crashed into the Pentagon in Washington, D.C., while a fourth crashed in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Nearly 3,000 people were killed.

At least part of the article just goes to prove that old adage about stopped clocks being right twice a day.

Cant really argue what they say on Afghanistan and Iraq but to think the US would want the headache of a few more wars on an overstretched military and faltering economy is a tad of a stretch
