The Royal United Services Institute(RUSI) of the UK held a conference
on 'Preparing for War with north Korea ' and also released a report
written by someone called Malcolm Chalmers about the prospects of war with the DPRK .
RUSI is an establishment body linked to the British military and British intelligence
Really RUSI do not tell us anything that we do not know ie that a
war on the Korean peninsula is a strong possibly . You do not need a
multi-million pound think tank to tell you where Trump's warmongering
can led .
What the RUSI report shows is that the British state
has the intention of participating in an anti-DPRK war just as it did
in the 1950s when thousands of young British men were scarified on the
altar of the 'Anglo-American alliance' and 'special relationship'..
Surprisingly there is a reservation expressed in the RUSI report namely
the UK should not support a US surprise attack on the DPRK initiated by
Trump .Now whether this shows intelligent thinking by the British
establishment , that they are secretly aware that Trump is a lunatic ,
is a a question .
Of course in reality it is the US that is
stoking a potential conflict in the far east and this has worsened under
Trump. The US keeps 34,000 US troops in south Korea plus the CIA and
so-called 'civilian contractors' and then there are US troops in Okinawa
and Japan and elsewhere in the Pacific. Surely their very presence is
both aggression and provocation against People's Korea .
Any DPRK
missile tests and nuke tests are purely self-defensive , they are a
response to the US nuclear threat and the increased sanctions. As to
Guam , this is not the territory of the US but an occupied colony which
the US has no right to . So basically despite a few throwaway
reservations British imperialism is supporting US imperialism's
warmongering against People's Korea and probably would support a US war
against People's Korea like it did in the 1950s.
UK KFA believes
that there is a way out , Firstly , Britain should be independent of the
US and should disengage from it , no British military should to sent
to Korea under any circumstances. Secondly , the US should end its
hostile policy towards the DPRK , end the sanctions and withdraw its
troops from south Korea,. This is the way to a lasting peace !
