US, a hotbed of nuclear war

January 29 marks 50 years since the US shipped nuclear weapons into south Korea .

After the ceasefire, the US reorganized the 7^th US Division in south Korea into an atomic division and massively reinforced 280mm atomic gun battalion, Honest John atomic guided missile battalion, Nike Hercules and Hawk to south Korea .

The US , which had expedited to establish nuclear base of the US Forces in south Korea , officially declared the introduction of nukes on January 29, 1958.

This is an intolerable criminal act to inflict nuclear holocaust upon the Korean nation.

Despite strong opposition at home and abroad, the US established nuclear bases across south Korea and massively introduced nuclear weapons into south Korea in the middle of the 1970s. Thus, south Korea had turned into a nuclear arsenal housing more than 1,000 nukes in the Far East .

In addition, the US has ceaselessly conducted a large-scale joint military drills including ¡°Ulji Focus Lens¡± and ¡°Foal Eagle¡±, promising the nuclear umbrella to the pro-US dictatorial regime, thus, aggravating the situation on the Korean Peninsula.

It is well known to the world that the US has made frantic efforts to ignite a war on the Korean Peninsula , renewing war plans against north Korea such as ¡°OPLAN-5027¡±, clamoring about ¡°Nuclear Posture Review¡±, and designating the north as the target of nuclear preemptive strike.

Facts prove that the US produced the nuclear issue on the Korean Peninsula and turned south Korea into a nuclear arsenal and is going to unleash a nuclear war in the Korean Peninsula , gravely threatening peace and security of the Korean nation.

The US much-touted dialogue and negotiation are nothing but a sophism to conceal its true nature and justify its war maneuvers against north Korea .

History and reality prove that the US nuclear war ambition against north Korea remains unchanged and the Korean people cannot escape from the danger of nuclear war as long as the US army remains in south Korea and pursues nuclear war moves.

Yankee aggressors are a hotbed of nuclear war and the root cause of misfortune and misery of the Korean people.

Broad segments of people in south Korea should intensify the struggle for peace against the US and war to withdraw various kinds of nukes that inflict nuclear holocaust upon the Korean nation and the US troops, a hotbed of war, from south Korea .
