letter of Korean Committee for Solidarity with the World People

Dear friends,

Warm greetings from the Korean Committee for Solidarity with the World People!

As you know well, it can be said that the lifetime of President Kim Il Sung (1912-1994) is devoted to the cause of Korea’s reunification.

Immediately after its liberation from Japanese military occupation (August 15, 1954) Korea was partitioned into north and south by the U.S.

From then, on the President held fast to the line of one Korea consistently and led the people dynamically to the accomplishment of the reunification cause.

At the time when the attempt to “hold a separate election and set up a separate government” in south Korea was becoming more undisguised under the manipulation of the U.S. which was pursuing the perpetual division of the Korean nation, the President set out a proposal for holding a north-south joint conference. As a result a nation-wide north-south joint conference was held in Pyongyang in April 1948 with the participation of 695 representatives of 56 political parties and public organizations in north and south Korea. The conference decided upon categorically rejecting the “separate election” in south Korea amid the unanimous approval of everyone present. In addition, the conference solemnly declared that the Korean people would establish a genuine unified government with the concerted efforts of the Korean nation on the democratic principle without interference from outside forces.

Even after the Korean war (1950-1953) which the United States had triggered off to realize its own ambition for the domination of the whole of Korea the President put forward proposals and policies for the country’s peaceful reunification one after another.

In particular, the three principles of independence, peaceful reunification and great national unity which the President had elucidated were put down clearly in the July 4 North-South Joint Statement issued in 1972 and became the general principles for Korea’s reunification amid a warm response and widespread support from broad segments of people of the international community, to say nothing of the whole Korean nation.

It can be said that the proposal for founding the Democratic Federal Republic of Koryo (DFRK) advanced by the President in October 1980 is a blueprint for Korea’s reunification which clarifies the appearance of a unified Korea and the ways and means for its realization. This proposal for establishing a unified state by means of federation on the basis of one nation, one state, two systems and two governments with the name of Koryo (918-1392) which had been the first unified state in the 5 000-year-long history of Korean nation arrested particular attention internationally as it was original, reasonable and just and fair.

In April 1993 the President made public the Ten-Point Programme for Great Unity of the Whole Nation as an important political programme for achieving the unity of the whole nation and strengthening the internal forces of reunification, transcending the differences in ideology, ideal, political view and religious belief, on the basis of love for the nation and the spirit of nation independence.

The three principles of Korean reunification, the proposal for founding the DFRK and the Ten-Point Programme for the Great Unity of the Whole Nation set out by the President are now officially recognized as the three charters for Korea’s reunification which should be maintained to the last in realizing the reunification cause.

In retrospect, firm foundations have been already laid for achieving Korea’s reunification.

They include the holding of dialogues and negotiations between north and south which have opened epoch-making phases in the history of the Korean reunification movement full of ups and downs, the formation of the Pan-national Alliance for Korea’s Reunification (Pomminryon), a united front of the whole nation, the north side’s assistance full of fraternal love given to the south Korean flood victims, and the successful holding of north-south reunification functions of various forms. All this could hardly be thinkable, were it not for President Kim Il Sung.

The President said that the greatest gift he could present to the fellow countrymen was national reunification. And he dedicated everything to the accomplishment of the reunification cause up to the last period of his life.

In 1994, too, the last year of his life, the President conducted energetic activities to bring about a historic turn in the settlement of Korea’s reunification issue. This left indelible impressions upon many people the world over. On April 13, two days before his birthday (April 15) he granted an audience to the President of the Prensa Latina News Agency of Cuba and said in the following vein: The path ahead of the Korean people is beset with grave difficulties and obstacles. But I am optimistic about the prospect of reunification. The historic cause of Korea’s reunification will be accomplished without fail.

A few days later, that is, on April 16 and 17 he, granting audiences to a press corps from The Washington Times, a press corps from the US CNN TV Broadcasting Corporation, après corps from the Japan Broadcasting Corporation etc, in succession, expressed again his firm belief in the realization of the reunification cause.

On April 21 he gave an interview to Mun Myong Ja, a Korean lady journalist of high repute resident in the US and told her that if those who had betrayed the Korean nation in the past repented of their past mistakes and turned out on the road of patriotism he would forgive them with generosity and that he would go ahead hand in hand with national capitalists in south Korea for the country’s reunification and the nation’s joint prosperity. It is said that the President gave instructions on dozens of occasions between June 20 and July 5 that year in connection with the reunification issue.

On the evening of July 7, the day before his demise, he carefully examined the historic document related to the reunification issue page after page and left his own handwriting, “Kim Il Sung July 7, 1994”.

It was the last handwriting the President left behind.

The exploits the President accomplished for Korea’s reunification cause are now shining more brightly thanks to Kim Jong Il. As the June 15 Joint Declaration adopted in 2000 and the October 4 Declaration adopted in 2007 between north and south of Korea show, the reunification of Korea is now the current of history that no one and no force can check.

The whole life of President Kim Il Sung dedicated to Korea’s reunification cause will shine forever.

We firmly believe that you and your organization whom love the peace and justice and wish the realization of the reunification of Korea will always give the full support and solidarity to the Korean people in their struggle for the peace and security and reunification of Korea.

With best regards,

World opinion on sinking of a south Korean warship

World opinion on sinking of a south Korean warship 1 The international community throws a great doubt on the results of the sinking of south Korean patrol ship “Cheonan” fabricated by the Lee Myung-bak administration. A commentary on May 20 and 25 from Hong Kong TV, China There is a good chance of fabricating the results of the sinking of the warship by someone. It causes several doubts that the wreckage of torpedo was founded at the last stage in the waters of the case where the water is less than meters and the south Korean patrol warship failed to read the identity of a north Korea’s mini submarine. Had the results of the case prove a pure fabrication, it would be surely plotted by the US. Because the US, that is scheduled to transfer wartime operational control to south Korea in 2012, wants to find an excuse for consolidation of the military alliance with south Korea to station its troops in south Korea. It also wants to find a pretext to solve controversial US military base in Okinawa, Japan by the end of May this year. To this end, Washington and Seoul may have concocted the self-made farce for their political purpose. The case they fabricated would be boomerang on them soon or later. An interview with a Russian expert in submarine with a Chinese paper on May 22 The investigation results released by south Korea is untrustworthy. The south Korean sailors are fools if they failed to find out the enemy’s submarine or torpedo approaching their warship. To be sure, the case is quite mysterious. A commentary on May 24 from a Russian Internet News Land The result issued by south Korea lacks credibility. The US and south Korean navy would find a north Korean submarine in a moment as anti-submarine drill was underway in the waters where the warship sunk. At that time, there were warships equipped with expensive Aegis system. Then why north Korea sank the south Korean warship rather than warships equipped with Aegis system or nuclear-powered submarines? Washington made public a statement which read north Korea is involved in the case as soon as the warship sunk. A Russian news on May 24 Many south Koreans have doubt about the results of investigation that worsen the tension on the Korean Peninsula. The south Korean publications pay attention to characters “1번” meaning “No. 1” written in marking ink on the remains of torpedo and north Korea prefers “호” rather than “번.” According to the result of investigation, a north Korean submarine had infiltrated into the waters of south Korea before two or three days the case occurred. It is quite dubious that how the north Korean submarine infiltrated into the waters when the joint military exercise was conducted with involvement of the US warships equipped with early detection of the enemy infiltration. If it is true, the joint defense of so-called powerful military alliance is powerless before a submarine. A Russian radio on May 25 The investigation team has no legal international status and the formation of the team by south Korea should come to light. The objectivity of investigation is on the lips of south Koreans. Analysts asserted that there were many questionable issues including a sign on the torpedo remain. A Russian paper on May 26 Even a member of the international investigation team failed to participate in salvaging the remains of the warship. The evidence produced by south Korea is quite unbelievable. A remark of a colonel from the General staff of Russian Navy carried on a Russian paper on May 26. The Russian navy regards the case borders upon a puerile farce. For example, the inscription on the surface of the wreckage of torpedo is utterly incongruous to the DPRK navy. It proves all the evidences are fabricated in haste. The case is contrivances of those who try to deceive the international community. Washington is a skillful producer in this field. It is necessary to recollect that the US hoodwinked the UN with false information when it broke out the war in Iraq. The case has a strong feeling that it is a production of Washington’s crafty design. An interview of head of the International Economy & International Relations Institution of Korea Studies with Itar-Tass, Russia The present situation on the Korean Peninsula is characterized by total fabrication of the south Korean authorities. The south Korean authorities made the sink of the warship the motive of conflict, in other words, an overt excuse of a declaration of war. The fact that the south Korean warship was sunken by north Korea’s torpedo proves ineffective. It is far way to go to draw a correct conclusion about the case. However, the south Korean authorities tries to send the case to the UN Security Council, while launching false propaganda campaign. The US threw support to south Korea as it is a conspiratorial farce according to a scenario. These actions are pregnant with sinister political aim to strangle and isolate north Korea by imposing a new sanction. A vice spokesperson for the Russian Foreign Ministry Moscow would not transmit the case to the UNSC before obtaining evidence that the DPRK involved in the sinking of the south Korean warship and would not approve refer of the case to the UNSC. 2 Konstantin Asmolov, senior researcher at the Center for Korean Studies of the Far Eastern Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences, expressed strong doubts about the south Korean authorities’ assertion concerning the case of the warship sinking, when interviewed by a correspondent of Moskovskii Komsomolets, according to NTV of Russia on May 31. The “conclusion” made by the south Korean side is arousing very strong distrust among people in south Korea and other parts of the world. Both Russia and China do not believe the “conclusion” at all. There are a lot of doubts about the “conclusion” as “evidence” and facts do not match the circumstances fabricated by the south Korean side. For example, why did the case claim the lives of seamen only, without taking the life of a single officer? Why wasn’t there anyone who had his eardrum split or fractured among the victims? This is the general phenomenon which can be observed when a warship is hit by a torpedo. What is marked on the propelling body of the torpedo was written with a felt-tip pen in the writing style common in the south, not in the “north Korean writing style.” Why? 3 The Russian Internet News Ruskiye Novosti on June 1 reported that a US torpedo sank the south Korean warship “Cheonan” by quoting a reconnaissance source of the Pacific Fleet of Russia under the title “US trace left on north Korea’s torpedo.” It went on : The groundless evidence produced by the investigation team is triggering strong criticism. To begin with, why the US allies were included in the investigation team only while such important countries as Russia and China were not allowed to participate in and the proposal for dispatching an inspection group of the DPRK was turned down without any clear reason. After all, the investigation team willfully interpreted the torpedo wreckage. It is also doubtful that the torpedo was heavily rusted though it exploded in March. It is quite strange that a submarine of the DPRK tactfully disappeared, keeping itself away from anti-submarine crafts of the US and south Korea including the warship Cheonan equipped with underwater sound detectors, satellite monitoring systems and under water detector, which took part in the joint maneuvers in those days. It was hardly understandable, too, that they had kept silent for nearly two months since the outbreak of the incident, the possibility of explosion due to an accident aboard the warship or a mine was ignored and all officers survived the case. What is worse is the fact that south Korea launched a hysteric racket while vociferating about “punishment” and “retaliation,” far from clarifying its assertion and evidence more clear after the publication of the investigation results, gradually made a step back by uttering “apology” and “punishment of those responsible” and is now making such provocation as declaring its will to set up loudspeakers only to make the DPRK threaten to preempt its firing at south Korea in a bid to brand it as an “aggressor.” The reconnaissance source of the Pacific fleet of Russia claimed that it is true that Cheonan was sunken by a torpedo but it was not done by “a torpedo of north Korea” but a special torpedo launched by the US latest nuclear-powered submarine with the help of a small underwater device. The acute tension on the Korean Peninsula is not beneficial to both the north and the south of Korea but beneficial to the US only. The US is attempting to establish a worldwide nuclear arms control system on the plea of nuclear disarmament. Now that the US is struck in Iraq and Afghanistan, it seeks to borrow “other’s hands” by changing its tactics. In other words, the US seeks to pressurize south Korea to shoulder the burden of stifling the DPRK in a bid to “preserve its image.” It was also the calculation of the US that it could put China in an award position and separate the DPRK and China. On the same day the Indonesian paper Kompas in an article titled “Was Cheonan sunken by north Korea’s torpedo or torpedo of US forces?” said that the warship’s sinking is still a riddle. The south Korea-US joint military maneuvers were at their height in the waters where the warship was sunken. Accordingly, the security was firmly guaranteed and the warship was also involved in those military maneuvers. It is nonsensical for warship of south Korea and the US involved in the military maneuvers to claim they were unaware of the sinking of Cheonan. There is also possibility that Cheonan might be sunken by a US submarine. It is necessary to remind that a US nuclear-powered submarine involved in the joint military maneuvers was on a secret combat duty in the waters near Paekryong Islet on the day the case occurred. 4 Fidel Castro Ruz, leader of the Cuban revolution, in an article titled “the Empire and the Lie” contributed to the June 4 issue of Granma expressed his view on the sinking of warship Cheonan of the south Korean navy. North Korea is blamed for sinking a south Korean patrol warship. I have lack of materials to judge, but I am sure that China would put a veto on the UNSC resolution on sanctions against north Korea, he wrote. Saying the veil is dispelled by truth, he introduced data from Venezuelan TV 10:30 PM on June 1. “The sources suspect that the attack on warship Cheonan was a false flag operation plotted by the US to make others believe the attack was done by north Korea.” “One of the US main purposes of escalating tension on the Korean Peninsula was to put pressure on Japanese Prime Minister Hatoyama to make him change his policy on the US forces base. Hatoyama has admitted that tension over the sinking of the Cheonan had a significant influence on his decision to allow the US marine to stay in Okinawa.” “Cheonan designed for anti-submarine defense had been equipped with underwater sound detectors. Moreover, Cheonan was conducting operation activity in the sea with long-distance underwater detectors and submarine sound detectors. Its underwater sound detectors and sound receivers failed to find out any submarine in the water area. The water area was calm as vessels are seldom afloat when Cheonan was sunk.” “However, there is a military information base in Paekryong Islet as well as a special unit of the US navy. As the Cheonan was sunk, there were four ships of the US Navy in the water area which participated in the US-south Korea exercise Foal Eagle. The investigation into the metal and chemical traces of the suspicious torpedo shows that they are German-made one.” “The presence of the USS Salvor, one of the ships taking part in the Foal Eagle, also close to the Paekryong Islet during the sinking of the south Korean warship raises doubt, too.” “Linking with specific doubts rose from role of Salvor, China harbors suspicion whether the US navy involved in the sinking of the warship.” The specific doubts are: 1. Salvor was planting sea mines. In other words, it was planting anti-submarine mines that explode horizontally from the bottom of the sea. 2. Salvor is regularly examining and keeping the sea mines at the bed of the sea. 3. A frogman attached a magnetic mine to Cheonan as part of secret plan to influence the public opinion of south Korea, Japan and China. Fidel stressed: In the final analysis, the US could do too easily such a big job, the operation to eliminate the coalition government of Hatoyama but it is paying a very dear price for what it has done. The price are first, it irritated the feelings of allied countries of south Korea, second, it emphasized leader Kim Jong Il’s remarkable ability and alacrity. Third, it enhanced China’s appearance. The political leaders and the world public opinion have proof of the cynicism and absolute lack of scruples that characterize the United States’ imperial policy. 5 The US paper Boston Herald and AP commented the sinking of the south Korean warship as follows: The allegation about north Korea’s assault on the south Korean warship contains some suspicions. The US-south Korean joint military rehearsal was underway at the time when the warship sank. It is quite strange how the south Korean warship backed by the US was sunken by a north Korean torpedo. It is questionable that the US made public in detail the materials on their military exercise after the sinking of the warship, moreover, only 46 south Korean sailors were killed. After the incident, the south Korean military authorities sent a warship to search the area immediately after the warship sinking, however, no warship was dispatched to the water area. A US official stated that the case of sinking is not a matter to deal in the international arena. A Swedish daily described the case of sinking of the south Korean warship under the title “Hidden intention of anti-DPRK fuss.” The US and south Korean authorities, in the early time, ruled out the possibility of torpedo assault and suddenly laid the blame at the door of north Korea. It is a nasty trick of the south Korean ruling force to take a favorable position in the local elections through campaign against north Korea. It is also sinister aim of the US to maintain its military presence in south Korea and Japan by aggravating the tension on the Korean Peninsula. The fact that the warship sank in their area of water cast doubts to the theory on “north Korea’s involvement in the case.” The fact that the key parts of torpedo that sank the warship remain intact raises doubts. Facts show clearly why the south Korean authorities do not to receive an inspection team of the DPRK National Defense Commission. The US and south Korea’s campaign against north Korea is a part of the imperialists’ hackneyed method of igniting a war. The south Korean authorities should accept the NDC inspection team of the DPRK without delay to probe into the truth of the case and admit their sin of driving the situation of the Korean Peninsula to the brink of war. 6 Sergei Ivanov, a Russian vice premier, told at an interview with the Itar Tass that Russia has no clear evidence of north Korea’s involvement in the sinking of Cheonan took place in the West Sea of Korea. Some nations asserted that north Korea sank the patrol warship, however, Moscow is not sure of it. The Japanese Asia-Pacific newspaper posted an article on the Internet titled “Who sank Cheonan” on May 24. The US is in fear of having hegemony taken away in settling the issue of the Korean Peninsula following transfer of the “right to command of the wartime operations” to south Korea in 2012. The US munitions enterprises do not want to lose the US supremacy over East Asia with the withdrawal of the US forces in south Korea but seek to create favorable atmosphere for launching a new war in Korea by taking the advantage of the case of Cheonan. The recent farce, by all accounts, is aimed to deteriorate the inter-Korean relations and keep the US armed forces in south Korea for an indefinite period. The Russian History Prospect Fund in commentaries posted on the Internet on May 31 and June 1 made concrete analysis and estimation of the falsity of “material evidence” presented by the south Korean authorities and impossibility of the “torpedo attack by the north Korean submarine.” The French Internet paper Asia Times in its commentary on June 2 noted that the aim sought by Lee Myung-bak through the case of Cheonan sinking was to win “perfect partnership” with the US and use the UN Security council as a platform for discussing the Korean issue instead of the six-way talks. It also sought to use the case for arousing public interest in his government ahead of the mayoral and gubernatorial elections and, furthermore, create security crisis and thus secure a pretext of arms buildup and boost “strategic alliance” with the US. On June 1, the Russian Internet news Pravaya quoting a US journalist said that the case of Cheonan sinking was a sheer charade fabricated by the United States.

Pyongyang Army-People Rally against US Held

Pyongyang Army-People Rally against US Held

Pyongyang, June 25 (KCNA) -- A Pyongyang army-people rally against the United States took place at Kim Il Sung Square on Friday on the occasion of "June 25, the day of struggle against the U.S. imperialists". Attending the rally were senior party, army and state officials, the chairperson of a friendly party, officials of party, armed forces, power bodies, social organizations, ministries and national institutions, servicepersons, officials in the fields of science, education, culture and arts, public health and media, and working people, youth and students in the city, more than 120,000 people. The chief of the Pyongyang mission of the Anti-Imperialist National Democratic Front and overseas compatriots were on hand. Present on invitation were diplomatic envoys of different countries and staff members of foreign embassies here and foreign guests. Kim Ki Nam, secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, said in his address at the rally that after launching an armed invasion against the northern half of Korea on June 25, 1950 to destroy the DPRK in its cradle and realize their scenario for world domination the U.S. imperialists carried out the most barbaric war of aggression in the world history of wars by mobilizing more than two million troops of their aggressor forces and armies of fifteen satellite countries and the south Korean puppet army and huge quantities of war materiel. Due to the bestial atrocities of the U.S. imperialist aggressors millions of innocent Korean people were mercilessly killed, and the whole territory of the northern half of Korea alive with the drive for carving out a new life was reduced to debris in the period of the war, he noted. Under the wise leadership of President Kim Il Sung the army and people of the DPRK beat back the U.S. imperialists who boasted of being the "strongest" in the world and their imperialist allied forces by displaying matchless bravery and popular heroism and the might of single-minded unity and thus honorably protected the sovereignty of the nation and the gains of the revolution and brought about the beginning of decline for the U.S. imperialists, he noted, and went on: The U.S., far from drawing a due lesson from the ignominious defeat it sustained in the last Korean War, has kept south Korea under its occupation and desperately pursued the hostile policy towards the DPRK, bringing unbearable misfortune and sufferings to the Korean nation. The Lee Myung Bak group of traitors, too, is working with bloodshot eyes to put international "sanctions" against the DPRK into practice over the case of the sunk warship under the manipulation of the U.S. It attempted to resume the psychological warfare against the DPRK and is busy staging large-scale DPRK-targeted war exercises, blatantly challenging the aspiration and desire of the nation for the country's peace and reunification. The U.S. should bear in mind that the war launched by it on June 25 ended with the victory of the Korean people on July 27 after three years. If the U.S. and the puppet group of traitors finally ignite a war of aggression defying the repeated warnings of the DPRK, the army and people of the DPRK will never miss a chance but certainly give vent to their pent-up grudge and resentment to mercilessly wipe out the aggressors and the provocateurs. Then followed speeches by representatives of the Korean People's Army, workers, agricultural workers and youth and students. They stressed that the DPRK would react to the "retaliation" and "punishment" of the enemies and even their slightest provocation with Korean-style merciless punishment. At the end of the rally there was an anti-U.S. demonstration. The demonstrators marched along main streets, holding slogan-boards and posters. They chanted slogans reflecting hatred and resentment at the U.S. imperialists and the south Korean group of traitors.

joint statement of ASSPUK and JISGE on 60th anniversary of the start of the Korean war

ASSOCIATION FOR THE STUDY OF SONGUN POLITICS UK

London 24th of June Juche 99 2010

On the occasion of the 60th anniversary of the provocation of the Fatherland Liberation War
by the US imperialists and the start of the month of solidarity with the Korean people against US imperialism, the ASSPUK and JISGE issued the following statement:

The US imperialists, the ringleader of the world imperialists and international reactionaries, provoked a war in Korea on the 25th of June 1950 by instigated their south Korean puppets to attack the young Democratic Peoples Republic of Korea.The US imperialists fought an unjust aggressive war against the Korean people.
The Korean people led by the great leader Marshal Kim Il Sung,a true military strategic genius fought a fierce anti imperialist anti US stuggle against US imperialism and the allied forces of international reaction.The Korean people fought a national liberation war against the Yankee imperialist invaders,a war of justice for independence and freedom and also a war to reunify the sacred motherland.

The Fatherland Liberation War of the Korean people was a crucible of the Songun idea. We condemn the appalling barbarity of the US imperialists during the Fatherland Liberation.We denounce their crimes of massacaring civilians(including Sinchon ri,which I visted myself), use of biological and chemical weapons.History will curse forever the US imperialists as sub-human murderers and enemy of humanity and progress.

The US imperialist contine to occupy south Korea and commit crimes such as the murder of the schoolgirls Sim Hyo Sun and Sim Mi Son and other artocities.They are propping up the reactionary fascist puppet Lee Myung Bak clique

The US imperialists are running wild along with the south Korean puppet clique of Lee Myung Bak to ignite a new war in Korea.They have fabricated the so called case of the 'Cheonan'.

On the occasion of the Month of Solidarity with the Korean people we extend our fervent support to the Korean people in the struggle to secure the immediate and unconditional withdrawal of the US imperialist aggression forces from the south of Korea.The fake "UNC" command in south Korea must be dissolved.

Korean Committee For Solidarity with the World People on the Korean War

Dear friends,

We send our warm greetings of Korean Committee for Solidarity with the World People.

As you know well, six decades have passed since the fiercest war after World War II was fought in Korea from June 25, 1950 to July 27, 1953.

Then, how did the Korean War break out?

The American statesmen attached great importance to the Far East and especially to Korea.

The report No. 4849, a highly classified document issued by Information and Investigation Bureau of the US State Department on January 28, 1949, said in the following vein: In view of the strategic position held by Korea in Northeast Asia, establishment of control over Korea and her people is of great value in any other country interested in the Far East. And it is quite beyond any doubt that Korea has a great weight with the US from the political viewpoint.

The Korean peninsula was a strategic point of military importance for the US from which it could deal blows to any part of the Far East, a “bridge leading to the continent” for attaining its world supremacy and a “dagger” for cutting off a “chunk of meat” of Asia. In other words, the US considered the establishment of control over the whole Korea to be the key to realizing its domination over the whole world.

For this reason, the US bent all its efforts to provoking a war in a bid to put the whole of Korea under its control.

MacArthur, the then Commander of Far East Forces, said:

“By occupying all of Korea we could… control the whole area between Vladivostok and Singapore … Nothing would then be beyond the reach of ur power.”

The US revealed its ulterior intention from the outset of its occupation of south Korea.

It was hell-bent on military buildup, stepping up the construction of military roads, airfields and naval ports in many different places of south Korea.

A Japanese publication in those days said that the US arranged 400,000-strong armed forces, including the ground force and the police 150,000 strong, reserve troops 200,000 strong, air and naval forces 3000 and over 10,000 strong each in south Korea. It also disclosed that in 1949 alone the US handed over to south Korea the military equipment worth US$ 190 million to leave nothing desired in the preparations for the Korean war.

The operations plan for carrying out an all-out offensive against the DPRK was perfected and, in accordance with it, a great number of attack positions were build and all forces deployed in attacking formations in the areas along the 38^th parallel which divided Korea into the north and the south. The director of the Information Department at the MacArthur’s Headquarters wrote in his book that when the war was impending most of the Syngman Rhee’s troops had already virtually been deployed along the 38^th parallel. MacArthur in his statement after his release from office confessed that the US had concentrated all its war supplies and weaponry in the areas along the 38^th parallel on the eve of the war to attack the DPRK.

At that time the south Koran side committed armed provocations as a preliminary and trial war almost everyday. Entering the year 1950, the armed intrusion reached to an extreme and its number totaled 1147 between January 1 and June 24.

Meanwhile, US aircraft carrier and large bombers made full preparations to be readily committed to the Korean peninsula. And the American civilians in south Korea were evacuated to Japan on the sly.

With scrupulous arrangements made, Dulles, special envoy of the US president, looked round the areas along the 38^th parallel to make a final inspection of the situation. After that an order was issued to start the war and the Korean war broke out at 4 o’clock in the morning on June 25, 1950.

The United States was prudent in its calculation to fix the date of war on June 25.

It was a hackneyed trick preferred by aggressors to adopt a tactic of “surprise attack on Sunday morning.” The Russo-Japanese war, the Sino-Japanese war and the Pacific war had all broken out on Sunday mornings through blitzkriegs.

The US added a new meaning to this stereotyped method.

Roberts, the then chief of the American Military Advisory Group in Korea, had explained why June 25 had been chosen as the date of war as follows: “We have chosen the 25^th and this explains our prudence. It is the Sabbath for both the United States and south Korea, Christian states. No one will believe we have started a war on Sunday. In short, it is to make people believe that we are not the first to open a war.”

The above-said facts offer no room for argument that the US unleashed the war against the DPRK 60 years ago. The US can by no means throw off its responsibility as the provoker of the Korean war.

Recently the U.S. and the South Korean authorities cooked up the “Choenan” incident and trying to break out another aggressive war in Korean Peninsula, shifting the responsibility to DPRK.

The second war in Korean Peninsula means an all-out nuclear war which would be a great threat to the world peace and stability.

On the occasion of “June 25^th-July 27^th, the month of struggle against the U.S. imperialists”, we firmly believe that you and your organizations will strongly denounce the reckless new war maneuvers of the U.S. and the South Korean authorities and will fully support the just cause of the Korean peoples for independent and peaceful reunification of the country.
