The V day, July 27, of the Korean people will be eternal. "
A message of greetings was received from the Stoke On Trent branch of the JISGE and Staffordshire KFA which said "The Stoke On Trent Branch of the Juche Idea Study Group and the Staffordshire Branch of the UK KFA wish to send our warmest greetings on the commemoration of the victory of the Korean people in the Fatherland Liberation War (1950-1953).

On June 25th, 1950, US Imperialism made a ferocious attack upon the then newly established Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea. Instead of the imperialist aggression being a success, it turned into a complete rout for the US and its puppet armies. With weeks of the FLW starting, 90 per cent of the territory of south Korea had been liberated from the neo-colonial rule of Syngman Rhee. The brilliant triumphs of the Korean Peoples Army were seen in such as battles as the storming of Taejon. The Korean people were fighting a war for national salvation against US imperialism and its satellites. At Sinchon-Ri, 35,380 Korean civilians were massacred by the US military".

    UK KFA Organisation Secretary David sent a message saying "Dear comrades and friends,

The Victory Day, July 27th is the day that every Anti-imperialist, Communist and peace and reunification defenders must celebrate. 

July 27th was the day when the Korean People united in the Korean People's Army led by the Great General Kim Il Sung defeated and humiliated the US Imperialist and their puppets forces."
Dr Dermot Hudson said  that "July 27th means the day of the second liberation for the army and people of the DPRK as they defeated the U.S. imperialists and honourably protected the sovereignty of the country under the leadership of President KIM IL SUNG. The first liberation day being the liberation from Japanese imperialism on August 15th 1945 .July 27th is when the Korean Armistice Agreement was concluded"

Basically the Fatherland Liberation War was akin to the biblical story of David and Goliath with the DPRK being in the role of the boy David and the US in the role of the giant Goliath.

Thus in the Fatherland Liberation War commanded by the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG reactionary bourgeois military theory was smashed by the Juche orientated revolutionary military strategy and theory. The Fatherland Liberation War ended in victory due to the Juche orientated military tactics and Songun revolutionary leadership of the great leader supreme commander Marshal KIM IL SUNG and the heroism and self-sacrifice of the Korean people . Eternal victory will always belong to the Korean people !"

A break for refreshments was held .

Andy Brooks general secretary of the New Communist Party addressed the meeting  say that despite attempts by the imperialists to deny it , the Fatherland Liberation War was a victory for the Korean people .

Alex Meads UK KFA Commissar spoke about the 73rd anniversary of the liberation of Korea pointing out that "The liberation of Korea was not only a great event for the Korean people but had worldwide significance. The liberation of Korea by the Korean People's Revolutionary Army led Kim Il Sung made a great contribution to the victory of the international anti-fascist forces. The victorious liberation struggle fought by the Korean people was also an inspiration for the peoples of the colonial countries fighting for their independence and liberation. This fact was acknowledged by the World Cultural Congress in Havana in 1968 as the congress adopted a document praising the anti-Japanese armed struggle waged under the leadership Kim Il Sung. The anti-Japanese struggle also proved beyond doubt the validity of the Juche and Songun ideas.
This great struggle should always be remembered by progressive people the world over as an example of how those who are oppressed can free themselves by undertaking a Juche-based revolutionary armed struggle."

Jose led a discussion on the results of the poster exhibition and proposals for more poster exhibitions . He said that we need  to be more creative in our approach , that we should encourage people to debate  . Jose proposed that a  multi-dimensional  event in which people could experience Korean art , music ,video and even food . Dr Dermot Hudson said we should hold many exhibitions in regional centres such as Stoke or Liverpool.

A lively Q and A session was held . Discussions were held on how to combat anti-DPRK propaganda. It also got pointed out that south Korea has the lowest birthrate in the world .

A  letter to the dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN was adopted.

An exhibition of works of the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG , great leader comrade KIM JONG IL and respected Chairman KIM JONG UN as well as books explaining the Juche Idea  plus the publications of ASSPUK, JISGE and UK KFA.

Refreshments were served .

Japan Accused of Trumpeting about "Threat from North Korea": KCNA Commentary

Pyongyang, July 31 (KCNA) -- It is really strange that Japan is exposed to "threat" at a time when the atmosphere of peace is prevalent around the Korean peninsula.

It has recently been proved that Japan again branded the DPRK as the "unprecedentedly grave and urgent threat" in the "defense white paper" for 2018.

The theory of "threat from north Korea" is not brand new as it is a manifestation of the hostile policy toward the DPRK which Japan has long put forward as a national policy.

It is ridiculous that Japan still trumpets about time-worn "threat" at a time when a new era of peace settles on the Korean peninsula and in the region.

This is not a thing that should be considered as an ignorance of the trend of the times or persecution mania.

In May Japan branded the DPRK as well as China as a "threat" when it revised the "maritime master plan."

And it labeled the DPRK as an "unprecedentedly grave and urgent threat to peace and stability of Japan and the international community" in the diplomatic blue paper printed in 2018.

Japan is persistently crying out for someone's "threat" in defiance of the changed situation. It clearly shows that Japan is in need of the "threat" from the outside.

Now Abe regime is suffering a serious crisis in domestic rule owing to the ultra-right policy, irregularities and corruption and lack of measure for natural disasters and externally it is involved in trade dispute with different economic entities and it is sidelined in diplomatic arena.

For these reasons Abe regime is kept from realising its ambition for militarism and so it tries to find the way out from the theory of "threat from north Korea."

Japan that drew water to its mill in the aggravated situation of the Korean peninsula has not yet abandoned the bad habit under the present situation toward détente and peace.

The trend of the times never depends on the political purpose of Japan.

The Japanese reactionaries are crying out for the "threat" in pursuance of the anachronistic hostile policy toward the DPRK. Their act brings into bold relief under the eyes of the international community the base intention of Japan which is trumpeting about non-existent "threat" for its wild ambition while hurting the regional situation.

Japan would be well advised to think of a way to join in the trend of the times. -0-

Speech of David UK KFA Organisation Secretary to meeting of ASSPUK, JISGE and UK KFA to celebrate victory in the Fatherland Liberation War held on 28th July

Dear comrades and friends,

The Victory Day, July 27th is the day that every Anti-imperialist, Communist and peace and reunification defenders must celebrate. 

July 27th was the day when the Korean People united in the Korean People's Army led by the Great General Kim Il Sung defeated and humiliated the US Imperialist and their puppets forces.

The US Imperialist who shouted before the World of its world-wide domain and supremacy and his military power that could not defeat to a People united for the Independence, freedom and socialism and defending their young Socialist Republic.

The US Imperialism mobilise 2 millions troops with the most modern equipment with the help of 15 puppet countries.

 This was the most bloody and barbaric war that no empire has ever done.

The US massacred and tortured the Korean People like rabid animals, raping women's, using chemical weapons, bombing civilians just to continue their expansion and supremacy. But nothing served to destroy the freedom and independence of a People united with a strong ideology who is more powerful than mass destruction weapons.

 Korean people won their victory in defence of real freedom, independence and socialism, and destroying the moral of the invading troops who called them helve the defenders of "democracy and freedom" when they are the only ones who destroyed this ideals in every country that they wanted to slaved.

This war led to a defeat that the imperialism tried to hidden for decades as this will prove that the US Imperialism where more genocides than any other Imperialism in human history.

The KPA killed, wounded and captured more than 1,567,000 troops, including more than 405,000 US aggressors destroyed and seized more than 12,200 aircraft, more than 560 ships of different types, more than 3,200 tanks. 2.3 times the losses suffered in the Pacific War during World War II.

The struggle of the Korean people never will end till the reunification of the whole Korean people is achieve and the history Hidden by the Imperialism is study in every single School of South Korea and the World. KFA plays a very important role to explain the real history hidden by the the ones that called them shelves "Great Democracy and world peace defenders"

Korea has demonstrated in the history of the Working class struggle its great ideological consciousness and collectivism. This proves than Korea will be always victorious and will defend and build their socialism based on the popular masses and the Juche Idea. And this only is possible in this days with the wise leadership of Marshall Kim Jong Un.

If the Trump Administration want peace as the entire Korean people wants for decades is very simple. 

Leave South Korea and leave Korean to achieve the reunification between Koreans.

Long Live the Korean Peoples Army!

Long Live the Reunification of the Korean Peninsula!

Long Live the DPRK!

Speech on the 65th anniversary of the Korean people's victory in the Fatherland Liberation War delivered by Dr Dermot Hudson to the meeting of the ASSPUK, JISGE and UK KFA on the 28th of July .

July 27th means the day of the second liberation for the army and people of the DPRK as they defeated the U.S. imperialists and honourably protected the sovereignty of the country under the leadership of President KIM IL SUNG. The first liberation day being the liberation from Japanese imperialism on August 15th 1945 .July 27th is when the Korean Armistice Agreement was concluded at Panmumjom in Korea . July 27th is a public holiday in the DPRK .  Respected Marshal KIM JONG UN  wrote “Our July 27 is the second Day of Liberation when our people defended with honour their country's dignity and sovereignty from the brigandish aggression by the U.S. imperialists, and also the day of proud victors that put the U.S. imperialists, who were recklessly attempting to gain hegemony in the world and enslave it, on a downhill march towards ruin.”
So July 27th in the DPRK is celebrated proudly a day of glory. I was in Pyongyang for the 60th anniversary of the victory in the Fatherland Liberation War, some five years ago and remember the grand military parade in KIM IL SUNG square and the spectacular   firework display at the new reopened Fatherland Liberation War Museum on the evening of the 27th of July.
 People ask how a small country like the DPRK was able to defeat the United States a country which had won many wars and had been one of the victors in world war. There is a certain narrative that really originated from the Right, from the imperialists, that simply is was down to the assistance of the big powers that neighbour the DPRK .An echo of us is to be found on the Left and sadly some organisations of varying political positions have been all too eager to paint the DPRK as the creation of or extension of the former USSR and the People’s Republic of China. Some think socialism can only be built either in big countries or with the help of big countries, one wonders how the October revolution actually happened without the support of a big power. Indeed some said that the DPRK would collapse or vanish after the fall of the USSR in 1991 but 27 years later the DPRK exists and prospers! In my modest paper I hope to dispel some myths.

When the war started in June 1950. The DPRK was only just under 2 years old. It is main priority was economic construction and the improvement of people’s living standards. It had not wanted a war but was not afraid of it. The allies of the DPRK , the USSR and China were not in a good position to give much help as the USSR was still recovering from the devastation of World War 2 and the People’s Republic of China had only been founded some  9 months before, its armed forces were exhausted from fighting the civil war  .
It was the severe test for the DPRK that was only 2 years old at the test to fight the United States. The DPRK’s population was less than /15th the size of the US population. The US was the victor of the Second World War. They had emerged as the strongest imperialist power and the king of the capitalist world. Unlike other imperialist countries such as the UK and Germany, the mainland territory of the US had not been bombed. Its armed forces were formidable having defeated Nazi Germany and imperialist Japan. From 1948 the US had started increasing military expenditure. During the war the DPRK not only to face the war machine of the US empire and the south Korean puppet forces but troops from 15 satellite countries and also Japan participated in the war in secret , in some cases wearing south Korean uniforms. Basically the Fatherland Liberation War was akin to the biblical story of David and Goliath with the DPRK being in the role of the boy David and the US in the role of the giant Goliath.
The KPA and the people of the DPRK led by the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG based themselves on the Juche-orientated military theory that the outcome of war is simply determined by weapons but by those who hold those weapons-humans. This is an application of the core philosophical concept of Juche that people are the masters of everything and decide everything.
The great revolutionary leader Marshal KIM IL SUNG later explained that “We must solve our problems no matter who is helping us and what help we get...... Victory must be won by our strength”.
While giving on-site guidance at a munitions factory late in February 1953, KIM  IL  SUNG   stressed  the  need  for  the  workers  there  to  have  a  Juche-oriented   stand and the revolutionary spirit of self-reliance–that the Korean people should achieve  victory  in  the  war  at  any  cost  by  their  own  efforts.
When the DPRK was attacked on the 25th of June 1950 although it initially called for South Korea to cease hostilities, when this was not forthcoming the KPA under the command of the great leader Marshal KIM IL SUNG went over to the counter-offensive.
To quote from the historic speech of the great revolutionary leader Marshal KIM IL SUNG titled “Go All Out for Victory in the War June 26th 1950
“If they do not want to become the slaves of foreign imperialists again, the entire Korean people must rise as one in the national-salvation struggle to overthrow and smash the traitorous Syngman Rhee "regime" and its army. We must, at all costs, win ultimate victory. I call upon the entire Korean people to unite more closely around the Government of the DPRK in order quickly to destroy the armed forces and the police system of the traitorous Syngman Rhee clique.
The history of mankind shows that a people that defies death and rises in the struggle for freedom and independence is always victorious. Ours is a just struggle. Victory for our people is certain. I am confident that our just struggle for the country and the people will triumph.
The time has come to reunify our country. Let us march forward valiantly with firm confidence in victory!
Go all out to assist our People's Army and the front!
Go all out to defeat and wipe out the enemy!
This was immensely stirring speech ,full of militant revolutionary optimism that inspired the KPA and Korean people to great victories . It should also be added that the speech called for the workers in south Korea to organise strikes and riots against the decaying Syngham Rhee regime .
 The KPA under the command of Marshal KIM IL SUNG liberated Seoul on the 28th of June , the third day of the war and 2 days after the historic speech “Go All for Victory in the War “ . Rather than “ taking breakfast in Haeju , lunch in Pyongyang and Dinner in Sinuiju ( Haeju being a town near to the 38th parallel and of course Sinuiju being near the Chinese border) as they had bragged the south Korean puppets found themselves overwhelmed by the strong and decisive counter-offensive of the KPA .
The KPA smashed General Smith’s US infantry unit on the 7th of July , this was the first decisive battle between the KPA and the US army . The KPA then went on to carry out a successful encircling operation against the so called invincible US 24th infantry division commanded by General Dean . This took place at Taejon . It was an example of the true military strategic genius of the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG .Dean was captured, trying to run away , by a 16 year old KPA soldier .. I believe this was the first time that a US general was captured by the opposing side .
Original Juche-orientated tactics were applied at different stages of the war .. One such tactic was the idea of forming a second front , of course some will say what about the second world war. However there was one crucial difference in the second world the second front was meant to be formed in several countries ,however in Korea you had a second front formed within one country . Some retreating units formed combined units with KPA units that had penetrated the enemy’s rear and attacked the US forces from behind their own lines . US general Walker of the 8th army was killed by such a unit.
Self-reliance was applied . The KPA fighters created their own anti-aircraft guns by mounting machine guns on cartwheels. The DPRK has established its own self-reliant munitions industry  in the 1940s which could produce rifles, sub-machine guns(tommy guns) and mortars. During the Fatherland Liberation War the factory was moved from Pyongyang to an underground base at Kunja-ri.
The KPA used tunnel warfare . Korea was indeed as some said the war before Vietnam and later the Vietnamese liberation forces employed tunnel warfare against the US in their war. In fact the DPRK dispatched its best tunnelling engineers to Vietnam.
 The KPA which was the successor to the Korean People’s Revolutionary Army had accumulated guerrilla warfare tactics and turned this to good account against the US .
The fighters of the KPA were encouraged to perform heroic feats .Numerous heroes  were produced during the war .For example an 19 year squad leader of the KPA  ,Ri Su Bok blocked an enemy pillbox ,sacrificing his life . He had written in his notebook that although his life was precious , the fatherland was more precious than his life.
During the Fatherland Liberation War the concept of army-people unity, which is one of the pillars of Songun, came into full force. The people supported the KPA in all sorts of ways , by increasing industrial and agricultural production and by forming guerrilla units hitting the enemy hard .
After 3 years of war the US fell to it knees and signed the Armistice Agreement on 27th July 1953 . General Mark Clark who signed the agreement for the US could only conclude “ -"I gained the unenviable distinction of being the first United States Army Commander in history to sign an armistice without a victory," . The US’s own narrow and curtailed statistics for its losses in the was showed it lost nearly the same number in 3 years in Korea than it did in 10 years in Vietnam . Overall the US imperialists lost over : 1,567,128 men including 405,498 US soldiers, 1,130,965 south Korean puppet troops, and 30,665 soldiers of their satellite states were killed, wounded or captured; 12,224 airplanes including "air fortress B-29" were downed, damaged or captured, 7,695 guns, 3,255 233 tanks and armoured cars were lost; and 564 warships and vessels including the heavy cruiser Baltimore and the flagship of the Seventh Fleet Missouri were sunk or damaged. The loss suffered by the US imperialists was nearly 2.3 times greater than what they had suffered in the four years of the Pacific War during World War II. It was an appalling loss and a serious military defeat unprecedented in the US history of war.
It was the first defeat for US imperialism . The scheme to attack China and destroy the socialist camp was shattered .US imperialism was stopped its tracks . The defeat of the US in the Fatherland Liberation War showed that small countries not just big countries can win against US imperialism The US defeat in Korea was followed by the successful Cuban revolution and the Bay of Pigs fiasco , and then the defeat in the Vietnam war.
Even right wing conservative British historian Max Hastings wrote" Many American career officers were dismayed by the precedent Korea established: the United States had failed to fight a war to a victorious conclusion." US war historian Bevin Alexander (who had actually been a US army officer in the Korean War )  said “Great efforts to conquer North Korea ended in failure. “The infamous anti-communist senator J R McCarthy admitted that “ we suffered a serious defeat in Korea “
Field Marshal Costa Gomes who had been president of Portugal after the 1974 carnation revolution but more significantly had been a NATO commander and head of Portuguese armed forces in Macao during the 1950s said that the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG thwarted all the plans that had been worked out by the US general and military policy makers. The OSPAAL(Tricontinental ) said “ under the superb leadership of Marshal KIM IL SUNG and the People’s Army and the people of Korea who inherited the traditions of glorious anti-Japanese armed struggle fought heroically and defeated US imperialism in defence of the liberty of the fatherland and the gains of the revolution ,thereby making a great contribution to anti-imperialist national liberation struggle of the peoples throughout the world and the struggle for peace in Asia and the world”

Thus in the Fatherland Liberation War commanded by the great leader comrade KIM IL SUNG reactionary bourgeois military theory was smashed by the Juche orientated revolutionary military strategy and theory.The Fatherland Liberation War ended in victory due to the Juche orientated military tactics and Songun revolutionary leadership of the great leader supreme commander Marshal KIM IL SUNG and the heroism and self-sacrifice of the Korean people . Eternal victory will always belong to the Korean people !
LONG LIVE THE 65TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE VICTORY IN THE GREAT FATHERLAND LIBERATION WAR !
LONG LIVE JUCHE !
LONG LIVE SONGUN !
GLORY TO THE MEMORY OF THE GREAT LEADER COMRADE KIM IL SUNG !

On the occasion of the 65th anniversary of the victory of the Korean people in the Fatherland Liberation War KFA Romania and Communist Party of Romania

Friday, 27th of July, marks the 65th anniversary of a glorious event of the anti-imperialist struggle of the Korean people. 65 years ago, the DPRK, actively supported by USSR and China, crushed the imperialist armies which were trying to seize the whole Korean Peninsula, after occupying the South in August 1945.
After 5 years of military terror in the South, time in which the lackeys of the US imperialism had committed there unimaginable horrors, these reactionary classes, far from being pleased with how many crimes they have committed and wishing to extend the fascist regime in the North, launched in the morning of 25th of June 1950, an attack on the young Democratic People's Republic of Korea. Comrade Kim Il Sung, the great revolutionary hero of the anti-Japanese struggle and leader of the DPRK, remained firm on position and made up an emergency plan to immediately frustrate the imperialist offensive and to liberate the South from the yoke of American imperialism. In just a month and a half after the beginning of the war, the brave Korean People's Army managed to liberate 90% of the Peninsula. Unfortunately, the situation turned dramatic, as the US imperialists launched a powerful offensive by mobilizing huge numbers of its fleet and mercenaries from 15 states under the guise of the UN. The KPA adopted a policy of strategic retreat, as ordered by Comrade Kim Il Sung. In October 1950, Comrade Mao Zedong, at the request of the DPRK, sent the Chinese People's Volunteer Army, numbering 1.350.000 soldiers. Comrade Stalin, the leader of the USSR, also sent some 26.000 combat effectives. The KPA succedded in completely liberating the North until the end of December 1950. From the beginning of that moment, the front line stabilised along the 38th Parallel.
It must be mentioned that during this terrible war, the imperialists slaughtered over 1 million Korean people, using some of the most barbaric methods ever. The Korean people were shot, buried alive, burnt to death, intoxicated with poisonous gases or had their limbs tore apart by carts driven by bulls. The pregnant women were killed, their bellies cut and the baby killed. These crimes are as horrible as the ones committed by the Nazis. However, the capitalist media tends to ignore these facts. The people are brainwashed to see the imperialists as the "shining light of democracy". But we will not hesitate to unmask the imperialists and show to the people the true face of the United States, an agressive, murderous and colonialist state.
After the repulse of the desperate attempts of the US imperialists and its puppets to conquer the DPRK, the day of 27th of July 1953 brought the victory of the heroic Korean people. Thus, the imperialists and its vassals were forced to admit their defeat and to sign the armistice agreement. In the evening of that day, the sky of Pyongyang was illuminated by triumph salvoes fired in honour of the great victory. On the same day, Comrade Kim Il Sung was declared Hero of the DPRK, for his outstanding achievements that made possible the winning of the war.
The day of July 27, 1953 will be forever recorded in history as the fay when the forces of Good smashed the forces of Evil, the day when the revolutionary forces crushed the reactionaries led by the United States, the day when imperialism was dealt a crushing blow, the day when the bourgeoisie and its lackeys from all around the world were hit in their pride of exploiters and killers of the working masses. The day of 27th of July 1953 proved once more the correctness of the saying of Comrade Stalin, by which "no army is invincible", it showed once again that unity and determination of the people represent the decisive factor in a war. The united and determined people can defeat an enemy which is better prepared and has large numbers. The Korean people, firmly united and determined,managed to defeat the imperialist army, which had numerical and technical superiority. At the same time, the day of 27th of July 1953 marked the start of the postwar reconstruction of the DPRK and its development into a powerful socialist country, a land of prosperity, happiness, equality and justice.
May the memory of the Korean people's heroes which shed their precious blood in the fight against the imperialists be immortal! Eternal glory to the Korean People's Army! Eternal glory to Comrade Kim Il Sung! Eternal glory to the DPRK!

Going round various production processes of the factory after hearing the explanation at the room dedicated to its history, he learned in detail about the technical facilities and production.

Watching various foodstuffs being churned out at the worksites with food processing facilities in rows, he noted with high appreciation that the factory works hard to modernize production processes and improve the quality of products and thus has over-fulfilled its plan every year while mass-producing the products that the people highly demand and like.

Watching each kind of foodstuff produced by the factory, he said that recently the level of product packaging and trademark design has been improved remarkably in the field of the foodstuff industry, adding that the varieties of foodstuffs being produced by the factory are numerous and diverse and the packaging is diverse and its level is very high.

Saying it is very good that the products of the factory are supplied to the whole country as well as to the province and they were appreciated as being not inferior to the products of central foodstuff factories, he called for conducting active competition among foodstuff factories across the country and thus bringing about a surge in production and expanding successes through a drive in which one learns from others and overtakes others.

Stressing the need to ensure the strict and correct inspection of quality and control over foodstuffs of different storage conditions in keeping with the increasing varieties of products, he said that in particular, it is necessary to strengthen the product inspection system for thoroughly guaranteeing the quality and hygiene security of the foodstuffs and medicine which have direct impact on the health and life of people and to improve and modernize the inspection method and means.

Saying that the factory should push ahead with the modernization drive for putting more perfectly all production processes on an automated, unmanned and germ-free basis, holding aloft the banner of self-reliance and relying on our own technical force, materials and equipment and thus turn itself into a production base with Juche character which is operated with locally available raw materials, he stressed the need to set a correct long-term goal and make tenacious efforts to attain it.

He said that the sci-tech learning space should be effectively operated to prepare the employees to be knowledge-based working people so that they do their shares in technical updating of production processes and modernization of equipment and to make sure that new ideas of technical innovations and original concepts are produced from among the producer masses.

He had a photo session with the officials and employees of the factory, after voicing his expectation and conviction that they would conduct the management activities well and produce more quality foodstuffs and thus more fully demonstrate the honor of being a factory loved by the people and a factory serving them.
