Pyongyang, September 5 (KCNA) -- Dr. Kim Il Gyong at Kim Il Sung University, told KCNA:

The tremendous nuclear force for the DPRK is the symbol, dignity and life of Songun (military-first) Korea.



The another successful H-bomb test has further raised the strategic position of the DPRK as a nuclear power of Juche and proved once again the completely-changed military dynamic structure of the world.



I keenly feel that no one on earth can match our army and people who are possessed of the highly precision and diversified, strongest strategic weapons, Juche weapons.



I want to extend thanks to respected Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un who turned the DPRK into a full-fledged nuclear power, upholding the line of simultaneously pushing forward economic construction and the building of nuclear force.



Choe Tong Sik, an officer of the Korean People's Army, said:



The great success in the H-bomb test which stunned the world reflects the faith and will of the DPRK army and people to blow up the U.S. mainland and annihilate the wolfish U.S. imperialists running amuck to cut off the lifeline of the DPRK.



The DPRK already made clear that the U.S. should think with reason and judge properly not to suffer shame in the eyes of the world again.



The U.S. warmongers should understand again the reality that the U.S. mainland and the Pacific operational theater are in the annihilative and merciless nuclear strike range of the powerful revolutionary Paektusan army.



If the U.S. imperialists bring the dark clouds of a nuclear war over this land, our powerful revolutionary army will wipe out the den of aggression and evils with our nuclear strategic weapons.
