Speech of Dr Dermot Hudson to the KFA UK Picket of the US Embassy 27.06.2026



 We are here today picketing the US embassy because a few days ago on Tuesday  25th of June , it was the 76th anniversary of the provocation of the Korean War which is known as the Fatherland Liberation War in the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea . The was was not a war between Koreans but between a small country , the DPRK , and the American empire. Indeed it was a war against Korea , against the Korean people. 


Let’s remember that the US is not some wonderful land of ‘freedom and democracy ‘ by the head of a giant corrupt empire that gave you Jeffrey Epstein and has military bases in every corner of the globe.


 The US imperialists, the ringleader of world imperialism and international reactionaries, provoked a war in Korea on the 25th of June 1950 by instigating their south Korean puppets to attack the young Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The US imperialists were hungry for profits and conquest. The US imperialists fought an unjust aggressive war against the Korean people. The US imperialists launched a war of conquest against the DPRK , a war to destroy the Juche-based people's democratic system in the DPRK as well as to destroy socialism in Asia and the world.


The Korean people led by the great revolutionary leader Marshal KIM IL SUNG, a true military strategic genius and ever-victorious iron-willed brilliant commander  fought a fierce anti-imperialist, anti-US struggle against US imperialism and the allied forces of international reaction. It was a fierce class struggle against the enemies of the people. The Korean people fought a national liberation war against the Yankee imperialist invaders, a war of justice for independence and freedom. The Fatherland Liberation War of the Korean people proved to  a crucible of the great Juche  idea of self-reliance.


The great leader President KIM IL SUNG said that “ The Fatherland Liberation War waged by our people was a fierce ,anti-imperialist , anti-US struggle against the allied forces of world reaction headed by US imperialism and a bitter class struggle against the enemies of the people"

                 

  We condemn the appalling barbarity of the US imperialists during the Fatherland Liberation War . We denounce their crimes of massacring civilians, use of biological and chemical weapons. 35,383 people were murdered by the US at Sinchon -ri and 1,050 people at Susan-ri (one third of the population of the area),  just to give a few examples.  The US carpetbombed Korea , dropping 18 bombs per kilometre. They also used biological and chemical weapons. By starting the Korean War 76 years ago , the US waged a genocidal war of extermination against the Korean people killing millions.






. History will curse forever the US imperialists as criminals as well as an enemy of humanity and progress. Indeed US imperialism is the ringleader of aggression and war. As proved by the recent racial violence and oppression of black people. it is the US that is the biggest human rights violator in the world.

                     

    The US imperialists continue to occupy south Korea to this very  day ,ignoring the will of the Korean people and the voices of world progressives. The US imperialists have committed crimes in south Korea too numerous to mention. They are exploiting the south Korean people by taking huge sums of money in so-called "upkeep expenses". The US imperialists have introduced anthrax into south Korea in order to commit genocide against the Korean nation. This is a horrendous crime. The US imperialists have also tried to stifle the DPRK using the "human rights " issue and used the UN against the DPRK."


Today the DPRK is the most advanced socialist state which provides free housing , free education  , free health care and many other benefits for the people. It is a society without unemployment , without knife crime or vandalism . We defend People’s Korea against US imperialism.


The U.S. and the ROK are pushing forward with the ROK's possession of a nuclear submarine while getting evermore undisguised in their moves towards the reinforcement and modernization of armed forces in the region, and they have so often staged military drills and espionage acts against the DPRK, extremely aggravating the situation in the Korean peninsula.


What is more dangerous is that the U.S. and the ROK held again a meeting of the "Nuclear Consultative Group" (NCG), a nuclear war body whose purpose is to attack the DPRK with nuclear elements such as nuclear and conventional integration posture . Such meetings were held proving that the US and ROK are planning a nuclear war.


This clearly proves the criminal nature of the body pushing the situation in the Korean peninsula to the brink of a nuclear war



So in fact the War was never really over but continues today. We say 

US out of Korea 

Defend People’s Korea.
