Research Report on Blood-stained History of U.S. Full of War Crimes

Pyongyang, July 7 (KCNA) -- On the occasion of the June 25-July 27 month of anti-U.S. joint struggle, the Society for International Politics Study of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea on July 6 released a research report disclosing the blood-stained history of wars of aggression by U.S. imperialism that completely destroyed global peace and stability and plunged the earth into a war calamity and misery by provoking big and small bloody wars and armed conflicts.

The report cited the following data to disclose that the U.S. came into existence and has become corpulent through aggression and war:

The U.S. was not built by Indians, aborigines and masters of the American region, but mainly by the Anglo-Saxons who invaded the region, exterminated Indians and deprived them of their land.

At the end of their fight against the rulers of the British mainland to seize the control over North America, the Anglo-Saxon colonialists established the United States of America in 1776.

When the Anglo-Saxons seized the cradle of the life of Indians, the American aborigines, and declared their "independence", the territory of the then U.S. covered only some of the North American continent.

Quite unbecoming to this was the fact that the U.S. colonialists unhesitatingly and openly made their country go by the name of a continent called "America" and the general term "united states".

By doing so, the U.S. colonialists fully revealed their shameless and brigandish ambition for expansionism and aggressive nature to swallow up the whole of the American continent when they made the name of their country.

The U.S., whose territory had been 700 000 square kilometers only at the time of its foundation, seized other countries' territories of 9 million square kilometers through 114 predatory wars in about 130 years until the end of the 19th century, which were 13 times as large as its original territory.

The Stars and Stripes, consisting of the red-and white-colored 13 stripes meaning 13 states at the time of "independence" and 50 stars which came into being through annexation, intuitively shows the belligerence and the aggressive nature of the U.S. revealed in the course of territorial expansion.

The U.S. is also a country regarding aggression and war as its nature.

Countless are the U.S. military aggression, intervention and state-sponsored terrorism such as the 1950-1953 war of aggression against the DPRK, the invasion of Cuba and the Caribbean crisis in 1961, the invasion of Laos between 1964 and 1973, the military suppression of the Dominican people's progressive struggle in 1965, the 1964-1975 war of aggression against Vietnam, the invasion of Cambodia in 1970, the invasion of Grenada in 1983 and the invasion of Panama in 1989.

During the past Korean war the U.S. imperialists committed all sorts of brutal atrocities baffling human imagination against the Korean people. This brought to light their criminal nature created when massacring Indians.

The U.S. made no scruple of masterminding a coup through its armed invasion against any government, irrespective of whether it is of an ally or not, if it did something insignificant but against its ambition for world domination and graft.

For more than 40 years since the end of the Second World War to the end of the 1980s, the U.S. has masterminded more than 550 coups. This amounts to cooking up more than 10 coups across the world every year.

Such coups fabricated by the U.S. are aimed to stamp out justice, progress and independence and bring the countries which newly achieved independence under its control again, thus realizing its unchallengeable domination and securing its rights and interests in the regions where those countries are situated.

The U.S. invasion of Panama and Grenada showed before the world once again that it is an arrogant gangster-like state which regards it as easy as pie to sacrifice not only the president of a sovereign state but also many innocent lives for its interests and greed.

The U.S., which launched a brigandish "fear airstrike" at former Yugoslavia to bring the latter to its knees in 1999, has resorted to aggression, war and armed intervention in different parts of the world even in the 21st century, being blamed by the world people.

It is precipitating its self-destruction through aggression and war, the report said, and went on:

When the 45-year-long "Cold War" ended with the collapse of the former Soviet Union in the 1990s, the U.S., which styled itself the world's "only superpower," had harbored a foolish pipedream that it can keep the world under its thumb as the "powerful U.S." and the "powerful only superpower," entering the 21st century.

On September 11, 2001, the 110-storeyed twin buildings of the World Trade Center, the "icon of the U.S. economic power," and its 47-storeyed annex in New York were completely destroyed by the attack of four airliners, and some parts of the building of the U.S. Defense Department in Washington collapsed, an extra-large incident that caused a lot of casualties.

Occasioned by the September 11 incident, the U.S. declared a "war on terrorism", labeled the countries incurring its displeasure as "den of terrorism" and "sponsor of terrorism" at its will and launched a madcap "anti-terrorist war" by mobilizing huge forces.

The U.S. ignited a war against Afghanistan by mobilizing huge forces, a curtain-raiser to the "war on terrorism", in October, 2001. It launched an invasion of Iraq in 2003, which was followed by its invasion of Libya through a large-scale airstrike in 2011 and a war against Syria in 2015.

Seized with extreme arrogance and uni-polar hegemonism, the U.S. declared its "victory" after easily bringing down the weak Taliban government of Afghanistan with recourse to its superior military muscle and the "allied forces." Then its "war on terrorism" spilled over into other countries as a war of aggression.

Under the signboard of "eliminating WMD", the U.S. launched a unilateral military attack on Iraq and continued its "war on terrorism." This was not just for combating terrorism but was mainly aimed to seize the rich oil resources in Iraq and put the Middle East region under its control with the country as a strategic vantage point.

Recently, the U.S. has masterminded countless "proxy wars" by instigating its stooges and anti-government forces in the countries and regions disturbing its realization of the wild ambition for world domination. Due to this, armed conflicts and wars are unabated and refugee crisis lingers across the world. The U.S. is using such troubled waters for gaining profits.

However, the U.S. policy of aggression has faced a stumbling block.

The U.S. started a "war on terrorism", touting "freedom", "prosperity" and "development", but it has become clear that it has only caused huge casualties, drained state finances and extreme disorder and chaos.

The war maniacs of the U.S. are asserting that a "new world" managed by the U.S., the "eldest brother" of the world, will soon emerge. They persist in fanning the war fever, saying the whole world will kneel down once it is pounded by their "iron fist" again.

This is no more than a pipedream.

It is because it is a law of historical development that those keen on aggression, plunder and war are bound to meet ruin.

The horror of the "empire of power" once rampant throughout the world has turned into derision and ridicule at it. The movement for rejecting the U.S.-advocating "unipolar world" and realizing multi-polarization has become a worldwide trend.

Against this backdrop, a long documentary film containing a meaningful dialog "empire's rule can never last forever … the U.S. domination will soon end" was produced and screened in the U.S. a few years ago. This hints at many things.

The end of the U.S. hegemony, being acknowledged even in the U.S., is an outcome of history declaring the impending collapse of the "empire of power" in the 21st century.

The reality clearly shows once again that brigandish U.S. imperialism is the principal force of aggression and war and the most hideous enemy of mankind.

As long as the hegemony-seeking entity of aggression called the U.S. exists, there will be no peaceful day on this planet and it is preposterous to talk about genuine peace and stability.

The international community loving justice and peace should go all out for the struggle against the U.S., the chief culprit of aggression and war, and contribute to bringing peace, stability and genuine international justice to the world. -0-

Great Tradition of Victory - Immortal in Annals of Our Republic

 2023.7.26.

http://www.mfa.gov.kp/view/article/17186

We are now living in a historic era – a new heyday in the cause of building a prosperous nation with an invincible army, the prime of national prestige and overall national power. It is against this backdrop that our people are celebrating the 70th anniversary of the great victory in war with confidence in sure victory, and an exceptional pride and confidence of a victorious nation.

President Kim Il Sung led the Fatherland Liberation War (1950-1953) to victory with his Juche-oriented military idea and the outstanding art of military command. He repelled the armed invasion of the U.S. and the allied imperialist forces in their attempt to swallow up our young Republic in its infancy, shattering into pieces the American myth of “mightiness”, and honorably safeguarded the dignity and sovereignty of our Republic and peace for mankind.

President Kim Il Sung inspired all the officers and men of the People’s Army and the entire people to the struggle for victory in the war, having set forth, as early as in the first period of the war, the original ideas of turning the war into an all-people war and of defeating the enemy’s numerical and technical advantage by dint of politico-ideological, and strategic and tactical advantage.

President Kim Il Sung visited the soldiers on the bullet-showered heights and the people in the bombarded rear time and again to instill the invincible strength and courage into their minds and bestowed his solicitude on them. Encouraged by the dedication, leadership and warm love of his, our army and people performed military miracles and heroic feats unprecedented in the world history of wars.

Keeping deep in their hearts such slogans as “For the Party and the leader!”, “For the fatherland and people!”, the officers and men of the People’s Army waged a fierce anti-imperialist and anti-U.S. struggle to perform heroic feats and achieve legendary victories one after another that sent the waves of awe throughout the world. Amid such waves, the so-called “undefeated division” of the U.S. was annihilated on this land, the U.S. air pirates boasting of their “air supremacy” were shot down one after another in the Korean sky and the U.S. heavy cruiser that professed itself as a “floating island” was reduced to a lonely, underwater ghost.

The hard-fought Fatherland Liberation War was an ideological showdown which taught us the philosophy that no aggressors could be a match for the people who rose up for a do-or-die battle, firmly rallied behind their leader, no matter how strong the aggressors might be, being armed to their teeth.

The precious victory and the tradition of invincibility achieved and established by the gallant officers and men of the People’s Army and the heroic Korean people, are etched in gold letters in the history of the country. They are the accomplishments attributable to the wise leadership of President Kim Il Sung, an outstanding military strategist and an iron-willed commander.

Today, respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, with his ingenuity in military strategy and outstanding courage of a peerless, illustrious commander born of heaven, is achieving decisive victories one after another in the fierce showdown with formidable imperialism, each signal victory deserving a note in the history of our nation. He is thus adding lustre to the great tradition of victory of heroic Korea.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un is of the firm belief that strength constitutes the very root of national existence and the guarantee for development. Based on such a conviction, he cut through danger zones and turbulent airs, and braved rough seas to make it to the powder smoke-covered training fields, inspired our soldiers with courage and confidence in victory, thus consolidating rock-firm the world’s strongest self-defense capabilities.

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un has made, all by himself, his way to the building of the matchless national power, leaving indelible, sacred traces. Under his leadership, the Korean People’s Army has now grown into an invincible revolutionary force, armed with our Party’s Juche-oriented military idea and tactics, under the uplifted banner of modelling the entire army on Kimilsungism-Kimjongilism. It has also grown into the world’s strongest invincible army equipped with absolute weaponry that would send the enemies shuddering with fear, as well as the powerful crack army possessing formidable strike power and overwhelming military strength that can surely overpower all sorts of tyranny of the imperialists.

The great tradition of heroic Korea - established in the depths of the forest of Mt. Paektu through bloody battles against the Japanese imperialists, the very tradition that glorified the great era of victory in the war - will remain immortal in the annals of our Republic.

Clark’s Confession

 2023.7.28.

http://www.mfa.gov.kp/view/article/17262

It is regretful that I have to sign the Armistice Agreement. But do I have a choice, when I am confronted by General Kim Il Sung? We cannot possibly defeat Korea, not even with 100 Napoleons.

This is what Mark Clark, the then commander of the U.S. forces in the Far East and concurrently the commander of the “UN Command”, confessed 70 years ago on July 27, while signing the Korean Armistice Agreement, which was no less than a surrender document of the U.S.

At that moment his hands were so trembling that it took him as long as ten minutes to gather himself. After signing the Agreement, he said: “I suffered a sense of frustration that was shared, I imagine, by my two predecessors, Generals Douglas MacArthur and Matthew Ridgway.” – a self-evident acknowledgement of defeat.

Clark described later in his book “From the Danube to the River Amnok” how he felt when he was signing the Korean Armistice Agreement: “It capped my career, but it was a cap without a feather in it. In carrying out the instructions of my government, I gained the unenviable distinction of being the first commander in the history of the United States Army to sign an armistice without winning a victory.”

Such a statement of his vividly presents the wretched sight of the U.S. ignominiously defeated in the Korean War in the 1950s. At the same time, it teaches a hard lesson that the U.S. cannot afford to forget – a lesson, as had already been admitted by Clark, that the U.S. had no other choice but to fall on their knees before the Korean people in the Korean War which was “a confrontation between a rifle and an atomic bomb”, as the Korean people held in high esteem great Comrade Kim Il Sung, the ever-victorious iron-willed commander and brilliant military strategist.

President Kim Il Sung set forth the Juche-oriented Songun idea as early as in his teens and defeated the Japanese imperialists in the bloody war against them by pursuing the line that the Japanese imperialism armed to the teeth should be smashed, by means of arms at all costs. He also envisaged with his clairvoyance the military scheme of the U.S. that occupied south Korea following the liberation of Korea. He directed primary efforts to the building of a regular armed force of Juche type, and brilliantly accomplished the cause of army building even prior to the foundation of our Republic. He thus provided the politico-military guarantee for national defense well in advance.

When the U.S., boasting of being “the world’s strongest power”, mounted an assault on our young Republic to obliterate it in its infancy – it was only two years since its foundation - President Kim Il Sung took the initiative in the war, gaining ascendancy over the enemy’s military and technical superiority with his outstanding military idea, Juche-based art of war and ingenious strategy and tactics. He also organized and mobilized the entire army and people to turn out as one in the struggle for the victory in the war by dint of politico-ideological superiority and the single-hearted unity. He thus wrote the glorious history of victory in the war.

The U.S. had better remind itself of the historic lessons of the Korean War and not dare to offend our Republic with its nonsensical rash acts.

Today, the DPRK holds in high esteem respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, another brilliant commander borne of heaven, as the supreme commander of the revolutionary armed forces. Under his guidance, our Republic has attained the status of a full-fledged nuclear power true to its name – an invincible deterrent against war.

Should the U.S. choose to offend our Republic, we will annihilate them by using all our military power that we have gathered so far.

The Korean War in the last century marked the beginning of the downfall of the U.S.; now the 21st century would see the irrevocable termination of the U.S.

The rulers of the U.S. are well advised to forget, on no account, the lessons of history.

Significance of Victorious Fatherland Liberation War in World History

From Naenara.kp
http://www.naenara.com.kp/main/index/en/first


Seventy years have passed since the gunfire of war came to an end on this land and the fireworks were set off in celebration of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War (June 25, 1950-July 27, 1953).

The great significance of the Korean people’s victory in the war, which duly occupies a position in the history of the Korean nation and the history of world wars, is still being told to posterity.

The historic significance of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War goes beyond the fact that the young DPRK, small in territory and population, defended its dignity and sovereignty against the US imperialists that had boasted of their “mightiness” with immense economic power and military muscle and their allied vassal forces.

The victory in the Fatherland Liberation War was a world-historic event in which the DPRK safeguarded peace and security for mankind by checking the US strategy for world supremacy to dominate the Asian continent and the rest of the world after the Second World War and preventing a new world war.

Entering the latter half of the 1940s, an invisible “iron curtain” hang between the socialist and capitalist states along with the collapse of Nazism, and this triggered off the Cold War, a showdown without gunshots between the two camps.

The US, which emerged as the chieftain of world imperialism after the Second World War, worked out an adventurous plan to form a sphere of encirclement in the socialist camp from East Asia and, with this as its advance base, dominate the whole world. In order to carry out this plan it unleashed the Korean war as a prelude to the third world war.

It placed Korea in the central position for realizing its policy and strategy to dominate the Far East and, furthermore, Asia and the rest of the world. It was due to the political factor that both Soviet and US troops, the main hostile parties of the Cold War, were stationed in the north and south of Korea and socialist and capitalist systems stood opposite to each other.

The US warmongers came to a conclusion that they had to occupy the whole of Korea in order to make inroads into Asia from the Far East, and only then could they take their first step towards the implementation of their strategy for world domination. This was their view on the strategic position of the Korean peninsula.

Such a criminal attempt of the US to realize its strategy for world domination with Korea as a foothold was clearly manifested in “ABC,” a war plan for aggression in the Far East which was worked out from 1948 to the early 1950. The plan divided the war into three stages: Stage One (Plan A) was to start the war with the invasion of the DPRK by the US forces and the south Korean puppet army; Stage Two (Plan B) was to expand the war to Manchuria by officially committing the rearmed Japanese army and Chiang Kai-shek army; and Stage Three (Plan C) was to occupy the whole of Siberia including Ural.

This clearly shows that the Korean war unleashed by the US in June 1950 was not merely confined to Korea and that it was a war of aggression targeting the Asian nations including the Far Eastern regions and a war of an international character which might be escalated into a new world war.

Proceeding from this, the US hurled troops of its 15 vassal states and even Japan into the Korean war by manipulating its voting machinery in the UN, and formed aggressive blocs to escalate the Korean war into the third world war at any moment. It also made last-ditch efforts to use atomic bombs in the whole period of the war.

But the aggressive war in Korea failed to achieve the result desired by the US.

The victory in the Fatherland Liberation War marked a world-historic milestone which transformed the global political landscape and forcefully promoted the trend of the times towards independence and socialism.

It brought about such eye-opening events in the political aspect in which socialism defeated imperialism and the overall might of the socialist camp was strengthened markedly for the first time after the Second World War.

Under the leadership of Kim Il Sung, the Korean people launched an indomitable struggle at the outposts of socialism against the US imperialist invaders, with the result that the peoples of socialist and people’s democratic countries could vigorously speed up the socialist revolution and construction in peaceful conditions and environment and directed due efforts to building up their defence capabilities.

Entering the latter half of the 1950s, more than one third of the world population, or over 950 million people, took the path of socialism, and the banner of socialism fluttered in the vast areas of one quarter of the Earth.

The victory in the Fatherland Liberation War also inspired the forces of socialism and the non-aligned movement to emerge as the independent political forces in the arena of history and develop into an influential international movement, with the result that the forces of independence against imperialism grew stronger drastically.

Encouraged by the victory of the Korean people in the great Fatherland Liberation War, several countries in Asia, Africa and Latin America began to show a tendency of independence against imperialism from the mid-1950s, and finally turned to neutrality or non-alignment. This being the situation, the non-aligned movement (NAM) began to form an independent political trend and, at last, embarked on its first advance with the 1st NAM Summit held in Belgrade, the capital of the former Yugoslavia, in September 1961 as a momentum.

In the mid-1960s the NAM developed into a powerful force with two thirds of the world population and 71% of the area of the Earth. This constituted a mega political event next to the emergence of the socialist forces in human history after the Second World War. And it meant the birth of another great anti-imperialist, independent forces in the present times and a crushing blow to the US-led imperialists.

The socialist forces and the anti-imperialist, independent forces have grown in strength, whereas the US-led imperialist, reactionary forces have seriously weakened and faced a serious crisis.

In the Korean war the US imperialists suffered heavy casualties and the myth of their “mightiness” was shattered to smithereens. Their position in the imperialist system weakened seriously and conflicts and contradictions within the capitalist world grew sharper.

The victory of the Korean people in the war awakened the oppressed peoples around the world from their “sleep” of US-worship and US-phobia and inspired them with the thoroughgoing sense of independence and the fighting spirit against imperialism and the US. It also instilled in the people fighting for independence and socialism the precious truth of struggle that the people of a small country were able to achieve victory in the showdown with any formidable enemies, only when they were firmly convinced of the validity of their cause and their strength and fight with a do-or-die determination, rallied closely behind their leader.

Greatly encouraged by the Korean people’s heroic struggle and historic victory, the peoples of colonial and dependent countries valiantly turned out in the struggle against imperialism and colonialism and for freedom, independence, peace, progress and democracy, dealing crushing blows to the imperialists and rapidly promoting the process of collapse of the imperialist colonial system.

Indeed, the shining victory of the Korean people in the Fatherland Liberation War, which was recorded proudly in modern history of mankind, was a world-historic event, in that they safeguarded peace for mankind by checking the ambition of the US imperialists for world supremacy and preventing a new world war, transformed the global political landscape and forcefully propelled the trend of the times towards independence and socialism.

Han Kyong Rim, researcher at the Academy of Social Science

Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Hosts Reception for Chinese Delegation

Pyongyang, July 29 (KCNA) -- Kim Jong Un, general secretary of the Workers' Party of Korea and president of the State Affairs of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, received the party and government delegation of the People's Republic of China (PRC) led by Li Hongzhong, member of the Political Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and vice-chairman of the Standing Committee of the Chinese National People's Congress, on July 28.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un gladly greeted the members of the delegation and had a souvenir picture taken with them.

He had a talk with them in a warm atmosphere.

Repeatedly expressing gratitude to the respected Comrade Xi Jinping for having dispatched a party and government delegation to the significant celebrations of the victory common to the DPRK and China and sent his personal letter with best wishes, he extended heartfelt thanks to the Communist Party of China, the PRC government and all the Chinese people that helped the DPRK's revolutionary war at the cost of their blood and have invariably supported the just cause of the WPK and the people of the DPRK.

He said that the Korean people would always remember and praise the militant feats and historic contribution of the service personnel of the Chinese People's Volunteers who provided the excellent tradition of winning victory in the staunch anti-imperialist revolutionary spirit and with the revolutionary unity while heroically fighting in the same trench with the Korean army in the most difficult period of the DPRK.

Being very rejoiced over the fact that the Chinese party and government have made world-startling achievements in the new course of comprehensively building a modern socialist country with the Chinese characteristics and the international position of the PRC is growing higher with each passing day, he expressed conviction that the fraternal Chinese party and people would surely realize the Chinese nation's dream of great prosperity under the wise leadership of Xi Jinping.

Reaffirmed at the talk was the stand of the parties and governments of the two countries to cope with the complicated international situation on their own initiative and steadily develop the friendship and comradely cooperation onto a new high stage through close strategic and tactical collaboration while dynamically accelerating socialist construction.

He invited the members of the delegation to the reception.

Present there were Jo Yong Won and Choe Ryong Hae, members of the Presidium of the Political Bureau of the C.C., WPK, Ri Il Hwan and O Su Yong, secretaries of the C.C., WPK, Choe Son Hui, minister of Foreign Affairs, Kim Song Nam, department director of the C.C., WPK, Kim Yo Jong, vice department director of the C.C., WPK, and officials concerned.

              29th of July Juche 112(2023)
The Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK (ASSPUK) , the British Group for the Study of the Juche Idea (BGSJI), the UK Korean Friendship Association (UK KFA )  , and the British Solidarity Committee for Peace and Reunification in Korea (BSCPRKP) issued a joint statement on the occasion of the 77th anniversary of  the proclamation of the Law on Sexual Equality in Korea;

  On 30 July 1946, 77 years ago the Provisional People's Committee of north Korea headed by the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG passed the Law on Sexual Equality in Korea.

 .For the first time in history made Korean women equal to men and abolished centuries of feudal subjugation which Korean women had to endure. Korean women had been subjected to double and triple oppression by feudalism and imperialism.

    The law proclaimed that Korean women, who were long neglected in society and lived in misery subjected to humiliation and insult, have equal rights with men in all domains of social life including politics, the economy and culture.

First of all, it granted women the same political freedom and rights as men.

All women became able to participate in the election of deputies to power organs at all levels with equal rights with men and enjoy the right to elect and to be elected. It also stipulated that women have equal rights to labour and education with men. The law banned human trafficking and prostitution.

  Today in the DPRK women hold equal rights with men. They hold high official positions as well being deputies to power organs and also managers and directors.

 The DPRK has a wholesome environment. In the West, you can walk into a newspaper shop and see pornography in front of you which objectifies women. However, pornography is nowhere to be seen in the DPRK and prostitution is illegal.

The DPRK stands out as an example of true women's liberation, Juche-based, proletarian and socialist women's liberation!

Congratulatory message of WPK CC to entire people and service personnel

 The Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea sent a congratulatory message to the entire people and service personnel of the People's Army on the 27th under the title "To the Entire People and Officers and Men of the People's Army Who Made an Immortal Contribution to Glorifying the Tradition of Victory of Heroic Korea".

  The congratulatory message said:

  The 70th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War is a revolutionary holiday of the great victors who have recorded only myths of heroism and mightiness in the blue and red flag of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea for 70 years under the guidance of the prominent leaders of the revolution; it is a significant occasion of demonstrating the unshakable will of the Korean people to continue the sacred 70 years of struggle for independence against imperialism and for a rich country with a strong army as the years of glory, dignity and prosperity forever.

  The 70 years from the V-Day July 27 is a proud course that put the power and prestige of the DPRK on the highest plane by firmly defending and constantly sublimating the honour and tradition of war victory in the 1950s and brought about an epochal change in all fields of nation building.

  It is the most brilliant summary of the 70-year-long history of struggle that firmly carried on the idea of pioneering the Korean revolution to a new century for nearly 100 years despite the high-handed and outrageous political and diplomatic pressure and persistent military suffocation offensives of the hostile forces and clearly convinced the world of the scientific accuracy and immutability of our idea and cause as an undeniable truth.

  The war veterans who are masters of the great years reliably supported our cause as the main force and core of the postwar rehabilitation and socialist construction in the same spirit and manner they had displayed to defend the country at the cost of their blood, and are encouraging the rising generations to firmly carry them forward while remaining loyal to the duty of revolutionary forerunners even in the old age of their life.

  Vividly recorded in the history of development of the DPRK is the boundless sincerity of many known and unknown people of merits and meritorious persons who loved the motherland more ardently in difficult times and devoted all their precious things to build up the strength of the state and lay a foundation for its prosperity.

  Today the DPRK is confidently advancing toward the grand objective of the overall development of socialist construction, resolutely controlling and smashing the war moves of the US imperialists with the strongest military capability and absolute strength that no force can match.

  Thanks to the great strength of loyalty and patriotism of the entire people, the strategic resource that cannot be bartered for anything, the advance of our state will be further accelerated without letup and the name and flag of our country shine forever as a symbol of independence, justice and socialist victory, the message added.

Tvrtko Balić: Victory of the Three Flames-contribution of KFA Croatia

The oldest burns the flame

That bears a special fame

It provides wheat

So that people could eat

From the days of sickles to those of tractors

In the peasants labour found its source

The second flame can be found in a factory

With toil he gains his mastery

Through suffering like from Naraka he gains glamour

Those once up are now down, bowing to the will of the hammer

Technologies change and so do regimes

Sooner or later work replaces market's schemes

The third flame comes from the mind

It's put forth by the samuwon

Independence, creatvity and consciousness are his find

If its purity is won

It is nurtured by intellectuals

Action is necessary, but so are all kinds of professionals

For seventy years the three flames into a single one form

Coming together into a torch as a signal to set a norm

In an honest people's heart they burn

Yet scorch only the imperialist in turn

A speech by a Worker and a Trade Unionist to the KFA UK and BGSJI meeting for the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War

Thank you Comrade Dermot and the KFA for organising this event to mark this important anniversary.

As a worker and trade union member,I send congratulations solidarity and friendship to the people of the DPRK on the occasion of the 70th Anniversary of their Victory in the war of liberation on July 27. 

These days DPRK continues to work to improve the lives of it's people, in the face of ever increasing aggression from the US, and from the US puppet regimes in Japan and South Korea. It stands strong and defiantly faces these challenges. Now the situation becomes more serious on a weekly basis, with constant military aggressions, and wargames that get bigger each time. 

Other comrades have mentioned the war of liberation and the odds that the DPRK faced, and and the international support and solidarity, that led to their victory.

I'll briefly mention that in China people are more and more interested in this period and the role of the People's Volunteer Army. Recently several blockbuster films have been made that are set in the war and Battles of Lake Changin 1&2 have broken box office records. Chinese people are very proud of their role in the DPRK victory.

 In the West, people know little of this war, the brutality and inhumanity of the US and their allies, and the war crimes committed by them. 

For example the sheer amount of bombs and weapons used against largely defenceless people, dropping more bombs that were used in WW2, in a way that foreshadowed the crimes that would take place in Vietnam, Kampuchea and Laos. And causing incredible damage to the cities and industries.

How the war was used to kick start the Japanese economy, after it was decided that Japan would be a US ally in the region.

And the crimes committed by individual US military units and soldiers that can only be compared to the crimes of Nazi Germany. 

This is work we can all do, on an individual basis to make people more aware of the truth. And thank you to KFA and supporters for always fighting for the truth to be known.

All lovers of peace in the world support the people of the DPRK in their fight against imperialism. Every success for the DPRK is a success for the workers of the world, and I send my full support and best wishes as they continue their work in building their country. 

Long live the DPRK, and all success and solidarity in their fight against world imperialism.

July 27, Eternal victory of DPRK

 

The past decade added lustre to the victory of July 27.

 During this period the DPRK has successfully achieved the great historical task of building up the capabilities to ensure everlasting peace, future and security of the nation.

The DPRK has reached a strategic position prevailing over a violent aggressive force, which have threatened them for over seven decades, with the strength of justice and self-defense, and is scaring the US with Juche-oriented ultramodern strategic weapons.

They have already made full preparations for victory in the showdown with the US.

The US may mobilize all the 3 nuclear strategic assets against DPRK, yet the DPRK already have a mighty weapon to knock them down at one stroke.

The DPRK is a country that defeated the US with rifles 70 years ago.

Since they are fully possessed of the most powerful weapon and has become strong a thousand fold, the victory of the DPRK is science and the defeat of the US is inevitable.

For the past decade, the DPRK stamped on the US and gained a series of triumphs every year with the growth of the mighty and infinite power that no one can ignore.

The DPRK gave the US shudders with Korean-style absolute weapons including "Pukguksong", "Hwasongpho", "Haeil" and "Hwasal", and foiled their aggressive attempt through the most powerful and overwhelming military operations.

The US is now seized with fear facing the horrible reality that high pressure and military threats do not work on the DPRK any longer.

Through the signal victory in the anti-US showdown which added glory to July 27 for the past decade, the DPRK proved that the victory will always be theirs.

The great person who brought about such a glorious victory is the respected Comrade Kim Jong Un, the very same as President Kim Il Sung and Chairman Kim Jong Il.

The respected Comrade Kim Jong Un is the great symbol of strength who made the DPRK an invincible and powerful nation with infinite power to extend the victory of July 27 forever.

Speech of Kang Sun Nam at Military Parade Celebrating 70th War Victory Day

yongyang, July 28 (KCNA) -- Kang Sun Nam, minister of National Defence of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, made a speech at the military parade held on July 27 to celebrate the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War.

Noting that the military parade celebrating the 70th anniversary of the war victory is held at the square where the people gave cheers of hurrah with joy after reliably defending the country from the armed invasion of the U.S. imperialist aggression forces and groups of its satellite states and winning a great victory 70 years ago, the speaker stressed this is the great honor of the service personnel of the DPRK armed forces and a great auspicious event of all the Korean people.

Different generations, including the persons of merit who significantly contributed to the prosperity of the country, model labor innovators, service personnel, builders in charge of the construction of a new street in the capital city, and youth and students, have gathered here to celebrate the V-Day together with the war veterans, masters of the great years, he said, adding this is a clear confirmation of the firm inheritance of the legitimacy and tradition of victory of the Korean revolution.

Saying that the historic significance of the DPRK's war victory on July 27 is sacred and immortal as it defended the people's dignity and honor and the country's environment for independent development, checked the U.S. imperialists' implementation of strategy for world domination and prevented a new world war to safeguard peace of mankind, he went on:

July 27, our victory day, is very sacred as it brought an end to the imperialist aggression forces' "doctrine of military hardware all-mighty" and proved the might of the Juche theory on ideology that the decisive factor of victory in the war lies in the political and ideological strength of the people and army rallied as one in mind around the revolutionary party.

The 70th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War is a memorial of history provided by the three years of war which ended in victory for us, and the 70 years in which the victory has been maintained, and today's grand festival is the climax of honor won by the bravery wartime soldiers and their decedents.

The great V-Day gave a clear lesson that those obsessed with anachronistic aggression ambition and avaricious hegemony ambition, not aware of the trend of the times, the change of history and the strength of justice to defend itself, would get nothing but disgraceful defeat.

However, the U.S. imperialist warmongers and the group of traitor Yoon Suk Yeol continue to play dangerous war games that may incite an unprecedented nuclear war in the Korean peninsula, with the use of their military muscle against the DPRK while advocating their megalomaniacal "logic of strength" even at this moment.

The U.S. is intensively forming aggressive military blocs such as "U.S.-Japan-south Korea tripartite military alliance" against the DPRK and other independent countries in the Asia-Pacific region. It plunges the security environment of the DPRK and its surrounding countries into danger, introducing without hesitation NATO, a confrontation mechanism out of the region, into the Korean peninsula.

What merits more serious attention is that the U.S., together with its stooges of the "Republic of Korea" (ROK), is operating the nuclear war mechanism called the "nuclear consultative group" and pushing forward a wicked design for a nuclear war targeting the DPRK at a practical stage.

Now the U.S. imperialists and the traitors of the "ROK" are not hesitating to make reckless remarks, even daring talk about the "end of regime" in our country.

It is high time that the armed forces of the DPRK clarified their mission and duty most vividly at this moment when the aggressive attempt of the hostile forces has reached an extreme phase which becomes completely clear.

We solemnly declare that if they attempt military confrontation as now, the exercise of our state's armed forces will go beyond the scope of the right to defence for the United States of America and the "ROK".

The U.S. imperialists have no room of choice of survival in case they use nuclear weapons against the DPRK.

If the United States of America attempts to use armed forces against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, the former will face unimaginable and unforeseen crisis.

We're ready.

The enemy should make a choice.

It is the noble mission of our army to defend the sovereignty and security of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea and ensure its territorial integrity.

Our revolutionary armed forces will never tolerate any military acts of encroaching upon the sovereignty and security of the state and will take more offensive armed countermeasure for checking them.

The armed forces of our Republic, remaining faithful to the revolutionary idea and political idea of the Workers' Party of Korea, will add eternal brilliance to their precious honour and traditions on the road to defend the invincibility and vitality of our great state and our system, and will always fight on the same trench with the countries and progressive people who are struggling to defend independence and justice for a peaceful and beautiful world free from aggression, plunder, massacre and destruction.

Saying that the victory in the war is always set in store for us , the speaker stressed that the Democratic People's Republic of Korea, guided by the invincible revolutionary Party and the outstanding leader, will prosper forever and our great people, who are confidently advancing the revolutionary cause of Juche, the cause of socialism, will win eternal victory and glory. -0-

Along with the spotlighted Hero Medal that represents the spirit of the heroic people who defeated the two formidable imperialist enemies in one generation under the guidance of the great leader and symbolizes the valuable dignity and honor of Juche Korea winning the most brilliant victory in the face of the stern tempest of the revolution, war veterans handed the flag of the DPRK, which they defended at the cost of their blood in the flames of the war, to members of the KPA guard of honor.

Kim Jong Un waved his hand as a token of his encouragement at the paraders who filled their single mind of upholding the Party Central Committee with the spirit of the victorious wartime generation out of their pledge of faith to glorify for seven hundred, seven thousand years the history of the great war victory and the 70-year-long history of struggle for preserving that victory.

The square was rocked by the loud chants of pledge by all the paraders to continue their dynamic advance for the permanent might and victory under the leadership of Kim Jong Un, the most brilliant commander in the world.

A parade flight of the people's air force began over the square overflowing with the great joy and festive mood on the war victory day.

A flight column depicting five-pointed stars and figure "70", flied across the sky of July above the square, representing the history of the great war victory of the DPRK unprecedented in the history of the world wars in the light of ferocity and heroism.

The columns of mechanized units started their parade, showing the mightiness, modernity and will of the revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK to deal merciless blows at the descendants of aggressors in the acute confrontation which continues generation after generation.

The columns of tactical and long-range cruise missile units, which are on standby for fire, entered the square, declaring before the world the toughest stand of the revolutionary armed forces of the DPRK to mount unprecedentedly powerful final annihilating strikes upon the enemy in response to their frontal challenge.

The columns of the latest weaponry, which have become stepping-stones for giving eternal vitality to the name and the flag of the DPRK and rapidly enhancing its prestige, fully demonstrated the spirit of the nuclear combat force of the DPRK.

The columns of the DPRK's strategic weapons roared past the square.

Let's react to nuclear threats and all-out confrontation in kind!

The excitement and great joy of the spectators reached its height when the Second Red Flag Company of the General Missile Bureau entered the square with the ICBM Hwasongpho-18, the most powerful core mainstay of the strategic force of the DPRK, which is fully deterring and overwhelmingly countering the hostile forces' various nuclear war threats and provocative acts of aggression against the DPRK and reliably defending the security of the DPRK.

The column of the ICBM Hwasongpho-17 representing the might of the strategic force of the DPRK, an absolute entity of the might of the powerful state and its people capable of putting an end to the imperialist tyranny on the earth and saving the future of mankind, and a treasured sword for justice and peace, passed the square, led by the hero launcher in its van.

All the participants broke into cheers of "Hurrah!", looking up to Kim Jong Un, peerless patriot and invincible iron-willed commander who adds glory to the fame and honor of the DPRK, won by the victorious wartime generation 70 years ago, at the highest-ever level in the history of the nation and provided an ever-victorious treasured sword to be handed down to posterity with his strong pluck, far-sightedness and extraordinary leadership ability.

At the end of the parade, thunderous cheers of excitement again reverberated far and wide and fireworks were displayed in the nocturnal sky of the war victory day.

Kim Jong Un warmly waved his hands to acknowledge the enthusiastically cheering crowds.

The military parade for celebrating the 70th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War will be recorded in the history of the country as a grand political and military festival which demonstrated to the world the unshakable will of all the service personnel and people of the DPRK to accelerate the overall prosperity and development of socialism and create a new myth of war victory in the era of Kim Jong Un in the sacred war against the U.S.-led imperialists in their great heroic spirit and fighting traits. -0-
