Anti-DPRK "Resolution on Situation of Human Rights" Rejected

Pyongyang, March 25 (KCNA) -- The Permanent Mission of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) to the United Nations Office and Other International Organizations in Geneva issued the following press statement with regard to forcible adoption of the "resolution on the situation of human rights in the Democratic People's Republic of Korea" (A/HRC/37/L.29) submitted by the European Union (EU) and Japan at the 37th session of the UN Human Rights Council on March 23, 2018:

The DPRK Permanent Mission resolutely and totally rejects the "resolution" framed by the U.S. and other hostile forces in pursuit of their political purpose to tarnish the image of the DPRK and isolate and stifle our style socialism.

The "resolution", to all intents and purposes, is yet another criminal document running through with falsified fabrications as well as a product of the hostile policy persistently pursued by the U.S. in its attempt to overthrow the system of the DPRK.

It is the universal principle of the international community and the lifeline of the activities of the UN human rights bodies to reject politicization, selectivity and double standards of human rights.

Herein lies the main reason that majority of the developing countries and many others opposed the forcible adoption of the "resolution" this time, while strongly advocating for adherence to non-politicization, non-selectivity and impartiality of human rights.

This notwithstanding, the EU as a group of typical human rights violators and A-class criminal state Japan submitted the "draft resolution" against the DPRK to the UN Human Rights Council. It is, indeed, an insult to and mockery of the international community.

Pressure of any kind will never work on the DPRK and there will be no bigger miscalculation for the U.S. and other hostile forces than to estimate that they could gain something from the adoption of the hackneyed "resolution" against the DPRK.

If the UN Human Rights Council is truly interested in the promotion and protection of human rights, it should, above all, call into question in due course the egregious human rights abuses prevalent in the U.S. and other Western countries and the A-class crimes against humanity committed by Japan in Korea, Asia and several other countries of the world including the kidnapping and forcible drafting of 8.4 million Korean people with one million genocide and the sexual slavery imposed upon 200 000 women. It should also demand withdrawal of the brutal and inhumane U.S.-led sanctions which obstruct in every way the enjoyment of human rights by the people of the DPRK.

We take great pride and self-conceit in our style socialism chosen with conviction and consolidated and developed by our people themselves and in the system of providing true human rights.

The DPRK attaches importance to the international cooperation for promotion and protection of genuine human rights. However, it will never tolerate any slightest attempt to seek ulterior political purpose under the pretext of "human rights issues" but will defend to the end our style socialist system centered on the popular masses. -0-

Report of joint skype meeting of the Juche Idea Study Group, Association for the Study of Songun Politics and UK KFA 22.03.2018

A skype meeting of the Association For the Study of Songun Politics UK, Juche Idea Study Group of England was held on the 22nd of March at 19.30 hours and was participated in by members from London, Bedford, Derbyshire and Stoke On Trent .

Firstly , a discussion was held on the 25th anniversary of the work "Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable" published by the great leader comrade KIM JONG IL on the 1st of March 1993,

Chairman Dr Dermot Hudson said that "

It was 25 years ago that the great leader comrade KIM JONG IL authored his classic treatise "Abuses of Socialism " to refute the slanders and abuse of socialism by the imperialists and world reactionaries following the counter-revolutions in some countries.

The work "Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable " heralded a bold and decisive ideological counter-offensive against the slanders of the anti-socialist forces who took advantage of the frustration of socialism in some countries....

This work of the great leader comrade KIM JONG IL gave fresh inspiration to the world revolutionary people aspiring for socialism whose hopes had been crushed by the modern revisionists betrayal of the socialist cause. It was and is a bright beacon for the revival of the world socialist movement.

The work "Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable " is as relevant as when it was published 25 years ago. It is vital reading for Juche Idea followers and friends of People's Korea that should be read over and over again."

The secretary general of the JISGE and Chairman Staffordshire KFA said that that the work "Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable " is a most profound work that stands the test of time .It shattered the myth that communism and fascism are the same . It is a most valuable work.Comrade Pickford said that the publication of the work was very timely as socialism had been frustrated in some countries but the great leader comrade KIM JONG IL raised high the red flag of socialism and rallied the socialist forces .

A Derbyshire UK KFA member said that he had read the book and it is absolutely spot on .It takes a stand against revisionism.He said that there was too much propaganda against socialism around and it is needed to be countered. Moreover the BBC having started broadcasting to the DPRK to infiltrate pro-revisionist , anti-communist and capitalist ideas into the DPRK with the aim of forcing it to 'open up' and 'reform' He said capitalist freedom means having 50 types of bread but poorest people can only afford one kind , the cheapest !

The UK KFA Commissar and member of JISGE said that the work " Abuses of Socialism Are Intolerable " refutes the bourgeois idea of totalitarianism . KFA and JISGE would do well to use this work to refute anti DPRK,anti-socialist propaganda.He also said that the work refutes bourgeois propaganda about human rights and freedom .There is no freedom for the working masses under capitalism.The work also addressed the question of bureaucracy .

Dr Dermot Hudson then spoke about the work ""Let Us Hasten the Final Victory through a Revolutionary Ideological Offensive!" made by dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN to the 8th Conference of the Ideological Workers in February 2014. Dr Hudson said that the work is a "a most powerful manifesto of KIMILSUNGISM-KIMJONGILISM. Moreover it shows the correct way to build socialism namely through ideological work rather than by certain other methods which have proved disastrous. The Korean revolution and People's Korea of Juche are marching forward under the glorious banner of the Red Flag whilst others have fallen by the wayside or even betrayed the cause of socialism. The work "Let Us Hasten Final Victory Through a Revolutionary Ideological Offensive" is just like an ideological nuclear deterrent which will blast away imperialism and capitalism.

Since the publication of the work "Let Us Hasten Final Victory Through a Revolutionary Ideological Offensive" the Korean revolution has steamed ahead at breakneck speed , a new Korean speed with miracles in construction bring wrought every day . The satellite of Juche has soared into the skies conquering space and the H bomb was tested sending shudders down the spines of the imperialists. New buildings such as Mirae Scientists' Street and Ryomyong Street have sprungup.

Today under the banner of great KIMILSUNGISM-KIMJONGILISM the Korean people are waging a fierce ideological offensive against the imperialists to defend socialism and build a powerful and thriving socialist country. The Korean people will smash the imperialist sanctions with the spirit of self-reliance and the self-development first idea .The people of the DPRK are firmly united around dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN and the Workers Party of Korea . They know no other leader and will resist all attempts at regime change by US imperialism and big power chauvinism .Led by dear respected Marshal KIM JONG UN the Korean people will be ever-victorious !

We recommend a deep study of the work"

Participants in the meeting praised the work and said that the Juche Idea is a universal idea. The UK KFA Commisar said that the DPRK is upholding socialism whereas other socialist countries are introducing a form of perestroika which is disastrous,

Participants in the meeting praised the works of KIM IL SUNG, KIM JONG IL and KIM JONG UN.

Meeting concluded at 21.20hours.

Statement of the International Central Committee for Songun Study on Foal Eagle and Key Resolve

                                     23rd of March Juche 107 (2018)
The International Central Committee for Songun Study issued the following statement today :
 
The US imperialists have now announced that the provocative and aggressive Foal Eagle and Key Resolve war exercises targeting the DPRK are going ahead from the 1st of April despite the relaxation of tensions on the Korean peninsula
  The DPRK has repeatedly condemned Foal Eagle and Key Resolve and asked for their discontinuation even offering to suspend nuclear and missile tests if the US agree to halt Foal Eagle and Key Resolve.
    Foal Eagle and Key Resolve are neither  "defensive " nor 'routine' as claimed . They include detailed plans for the rehearsal of an invasion of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea of Korea. It is a nonsensical sophistry to assert that as they are "routine " so do not pose a threat. The analogy can be used of a fire drill in an office building or factory , these are not held for the sake of "routine" but as a practice for the real thing . It is the same with "Foal Eagle " and "Key Resolve.
   The US imperialists should not be holding military exercises on Korean soil many miles from its homeland . It is a grave violation of the sovereignty of the Korean nation.
   Foal Eagle and Key Resolve exercises aim at invading the DPRK and occupying it . They are aimed at destroying the socialist system of the DPRK . They are a grave challenge to the independence and sovereignty of the DPRK . Also Foal Eagle and Key Resolve  are a serious threat to peace in the Asia Pacific region .
   We call for the immediate cancellation of Foal Eagle and Key Resolve and the unconditional withdrawal of US troops from Korea . Moreover the world progressive and revolutionary people should unfold a strenuous campaign  against Foal Eagle and Key Resolve and for the withdrawal of US forces from south Korea  . Foal and Key Resolve must not go ahead!


 HANDS OFF PEOPLE'S KOREA !
  US OUT OF KOREA !
NO TO SANCTIONS, NO TO WAR !

Incessant Candlelight Resistance

Incessant Candlelight Resistance   It has been one year since Park Geun-hye was impeached. On March 9, the People's Emergency Action for the Resignation of Park Geun-hye Regime held a news conference in front of the Sejeong Cultural Hall to declare continuous candlelight resistance for radical eradication of evils and social reform. The April 16 Consultative Council of Families of Victims and the April 16 Solidarity held a rally at Gwanghwamun plaza in Seoul on March 10 on the lapse of one year of Park’s impeachment and four years of the Ferry Sewol disaster. Four years have passed since the Ferry Sewol disaster, however, the cause of ferry sinking, media’s false report of “rescue of all people”, obstruction to activity and forced dismantlement of the ad hoc investigation committee for Ferry Sewol have not yet been proven, speakers said and stressed that Park is blame for it. Murder is the greatest crime and Park should be hanged without delay not be condemned to thirty years imprisonment, they spoke with fervor.                                   The bereaved families of Ferry Sewol and members of civic bodies chanted slogans “thorough investigation” and “punishment of those responsible for it”. They expressed their will to wrest all prices of the crimes committed by Park. Now the south Koreans are launching a vigorous action to punish the conservative force which runs counter to the trend of the times, defames the spirit of the candlelight actions and tries to get out of bottomless predicament.

Popular Uprising on Jeju Island

Pyongyang, March 21 (KCNA) -- It was on April 3, 1948, 70 years ago, that a popular armed uprising was launched on Jeju Island of south Korea to oppose the "May 10 separate elections" by the U.S. imperialists and the Syngman Rhee puppet clique.

Jeju islanders turned out in the uprising at the signal of a torch on Mt Halla at 02:00 that day and bravely struggled against the U.S. imperialists and the Syngman Rhee puppet clique, shouting such slogans as "Resolute opposition to the separate elections and separate government" and "Long live national reunification!"

Much upset by this, the U.S. imperialists and their stooges scorched 295 villages or more than half of the island and cruelly killed at least 70 000 innocent people by mobilizing huge forces in a repressive operation. Anyhow, the "May 10 separate elections" on Jeju Island ended in failure.

The popular uprising on Jeju Island, a righteous anti-U.S. resistance for national salvation, displayed the unanimous desire and indomitable stamina of the south Korean people to reject the interference of foreign forces and achieve the independent reunification and sovereignty of the country after its liberation. So, people from all walks of life in south Korea are still holding events in memory of the victims on the anniversary of the uprising.

But the U.S. has not yet apologized for the massacre on the island and the conservative group tries to play down the historic significance of the uprising, calling it a "rebellion by the order of the north."

This is another unpardonable crime designed to justify their thrice-cursed crime and keep it buried into oblivion of history.

The south Korean people have been subjected to untold sufferings owing to the U.S. imperialists, chieftain of national division, and the conservative traitors who have flattered and yielded to them.

The U.S. imperialist aggressor forces massacred more than one million patriots and innocent people before the Korean War after the August 15 liberation of Korea. And they mercilessly killed at least 1.24 million peaceable residents across south Korea including Rogun-ri, Yongdong County, North Chungchong Province and Sinwon-myon, Kochang County, South Kyongsang Province during the three-year Korean War.

After the war, the U.S. has backed the brutal suppression of the struggle of the south Korean people aspiring after independence, democracy and reunification such as the April 19 popular uprising and the May 18 Kwangju popular uprising and encouraged the conservative group, a group of rare-to-be-seen fascists, in the operation to suppress the uprisings.

As was recently disclosed, the conservative group hatched a plot to suppress by the force of arms even the candlelight demonstrations of the south Korean people launched to oust traitor Park Geun Hye from power.

The conservative forces of south Korea had committed shocking atrocities in a bid to strengthen their system for domination and dictatorship and engaged themselves in smear campaigns such as "total denial" and the "north wind".

But, as was disclosed in 2000 that "evidence" related to the popular uprising on Jeju Island was cooked up by the Central Intelligence Agency, the schemes and atrocities of the U.S. and conservative group have been revealed with the passage of time.

The "Liberal Korea Party" and other conservative forces are remnants of the pro-U.S. stooges who brutally massacred the people on the island while acting as servants of the U.S. imperialists and turned south Korea into a graveyard of independence and democracy and a veritable hell. They are now striving for the revival of the pro-U.S. dictatorial rule, maliciously slandering the popular uprising on Jeju Island.

The U.S. imperialists and the south Korean conservatives are a group of the worst murderers and traitors in history, who leave no stone unturned to realize their criminal purposes.

All the facts show that neither national reunification nor genuine democracy in south Korean society can be realized with the U.S. and conservative group left intact.

In order to realize the aspiration of the martyrs of Jeju Island, the cherished desire of the nation, it is necessary to reject the domination and interference of foreign forces and resolutely smash pro-U.S. traitors' sycophancy and confrontation moves against the fellow countrymen.

 The Association for the Study of Songun Politics(ASSPUK) , Juche Idea Study Group of England (JISGE), the UK Korean Friendship Association(UK KFA) and British Solidarity Committee for Peace and Reunification on the Korean Peninsula (BSCPRKP) issued a statement today  condemning the Foal Eagle and Key Resolve joint military exercises to be held by the US
and south Korea on the Korean peninsula;
 Despite the thawing atmosphere on the Korean peninsula which included high level talks between the DPRK Supreme leader respected Marshal KIM JONG UN  and the envoys of the south Korean
president , the US and south Korean authorities have decided to hold Foal Eagle and Key Resolve
military exercises  from the 1st of April " on a similar scale to previous years "
  These exercises are an unwarranted challenge to the developing peace process on the Korean
peninsula.Included  in the exercises are landing craft operations. Clearly this is a rehearsal to invade People's Korea and destroy its socialist system .
  This kind of warmongering by the US imperialists are undermining the chances of the peace
on the Korean peninsula . It could result in tensions increasing to the point of near war again.
  We call for Foal Eagle and Key Resolve to be cancelled forthwith  !
NO TO SANCTIONS, NO TO WAR !
CANCEL FOAL EAGLE AND KEY RESOLVE !
US OUT OF KOREA !

STATEMENT ON THE 40TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FORMATION OF INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF THE JUCHE IDEA

The Stoke On Trent Branch of the Juche Idea Study Group of Britain extends its warmest greetings to the Board of Directors and to the Secretariat of the International Institute of the Juche Idea,  and to all Juche Idea advocates throughout the world. April 9th marks the date, forty years ago, when the study and dissemination of the Juche Idea became systematized in the form of the International Institute of the Juche Idea, based in Tokyo, Japan.

Since the late 1960s, the Juche Idea has been studied and promoted, beginning with the formation of the Group For The Study of the Works of Comrade Kim IL Sung in Mali. The study of the Juche Idea was being taken up by various strata of progressive people in Asia, Africa, Latin America and Europe, so the demand for an international coordinating centre became an urgent necessity. It was decided unanimously at the International Juche Idea Seminar held in Antananarivo, Madagascar in September 1976 to establish a global academic research institute in order to organise the work for the study, dissemination and application of the Juche philosophy. Due to the energetic activities of the famous Japanese scholar Kaoru Yasui and other Juche idea adherents, the International Institute of the Juche Idea was formed in Tokyo, Japan on April 9th, 1978. The Inagurual Declaration of the IIJI entitled "The Juche Idea - The Sacred Banner of the Age of Independence" adopted by the founding congress of the organisation. The IIJI's first declaration proclaimed to the world that the flame of Juche was spreading globally and the International Institute of the Juche Idea would do it's utmost to propagate the Juche Idea to the progressive peoples.

Over the past 40 years, the International Institute of the Juche Idea has conducted vigorous and varied activities in its mission to study and disseminate the Juche Idea. Scientific seminars on the Juche Idea are regularly held on an international and regional scale, including the World Juche Idea Congress in April 2012. Representatives from our local branch and from our National Organisation, have had the privilege of participating in the International Juche Idea seminars organised by the IIJI and exchanging experiences with our fellow Juche Idea researchers from different countries. The publication of "Study Of The Juche Idea". "Hakuho pocketbooks" and the website by the IIJI have increased the accessibility of the Juche Idea to the international community. Our branch will always venerate the memory of the IIJI's late Director-General  Doctor Vishwanath and appreciates the efforts of Ogami Kenichi, Jose Francisco Aguliar Bulgarelli, Harish Gupta, Edmond Jove, and other IIJI Directors.

The thirst for a new progressive ideology reflecting the requirements of the 21st century is needed by the peoples who desire peace, independence and social justice. Answering this challenge, the Juche Idea provides a route map and guide for the goals of national and social liberation to be realised. The works of Kim IL Sung, of Kim Jong IL and of Kim Jong Un provide an encyclopaedia of theories and thoughts showing the path to genuine human emancipation. The Stoke On Trent Branch of the Juche Idea Study Group hopes that the work of the International Institute of the Juche Idea gains further success in its vital activities and wishes for closer cooperation between the IIJI and the Juche Idea Study Group of Britain. We call upon the all progressive political activists, academics and students in Britain to take up the study of the Juche Idea and to disseminate it far and wide, and to work with the IIJI for the common objective of global independence!


LONG LIVE THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTE OF THE JUCHE IDEA!

LONG LIVE THE JUCHE IDEA!
