UK KOREAN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION
London March 14th 2013
The
UK Korean Friendship Association along with the Juche Idea Study Group
of England and ASSPUK wish to issue a statement of protest against the
US imperialists film "Red Dawn". We have learnt that this film is now been released in UK cinemas.
"Red Dawn" is a remake of a Reaganite 1980s cold war film that was widely regarded as nonsense. A cheap and silly example of "the Russians are coming " propaganda that was in vogue in the 1950s and was rehashed for the 1980s. This remake of "Red Dawn" had the problem that the Soviet Union is no longer there, so the DPRK has been substituted for the Soviet Union.
This film paints the DPRK as
the aggressors !. Such propaganda is childish and absurd.The DPRK has never
invaded any country,its troops are not in other countries but the US
keeps its military ,navy and air-force in south Korea,thousands of miles
from the shores of the US. It is the US that since 1945 intervened in
more than 150 countries and being involved in dozens of conflicts.The US
has a massive network overseas military bases straddling the globe.
"Red Dawn" the film aims at inciting war psychosis against the DPRK. It aims
to make young people view the DPRK as an aggressive enemy threatening
them and prepare them for the idea that they might have to fight in
conflict against the DPRK. The film has been deliberately released to coincide with the increasing tension in Korea and with the UNSC sanctions against the DPRK and war exercises in south Korea. It is part of sustained, deliberate and systematic effort to demonise the DPRK.
The film slanders the idea,system and
policy of the DPRK.The DPRK's foreign policy is underpinned by the
concepts of independence,peace and friendship.It has no intention to
invade and conquer the US mainland.The DPRK weapons are for self
defence.They are weapons of justice defending the independence of the
DPRK and its dignified socialist system.
We call on people to reject the vile and false propaganda of
"Red Dawn". Boycott the
film and picket cinemas showing it. We call on progressive and peace loving people to fight the
lies about the DPRK.If you support the DPRK please join the UK KFA
