U.S. imperialists' mass killings of Koreans denounced
KCNA
Pyongyang, June 24 (KCNA) -- The mass killings of prisoners of Jonju prison in South Korea in the past were recently disclosed by U.S. government documents and photos, and remains of civilians killed in Kochang, Pusan, Ryangsan, Jinyong and other parts of South Korea were unearthed and there appeared witnesses to them.
Rodong Sinmun today in a signed commentary denounces the U.S. imperialists for their genocide, noting that they killed more than 5.2 million Koreans before and after the Korean war.
It is hard to find in human history such murderers who brutally massacred guiltless civilians as the U.S. imperialists did, the commentary says, branding this as the most flagrant violation and challenge to human rights.
The news analyst goes on:
The U.S. imperialists should be tried at international court for their crimes against humanity. They should own the political and moral responsibility, penal responsibility and material responsibility for their mass killings of Korean people, the responsibilities stipulated by international law, in view of their criminal nature, content and gravity.
Whoever violates international law should be punished by international law. There is no prescription in the case of crimes against humanity.
The U.S. imperialists should be brought to the international court to stand trial.
The Korean people have the legitimate right to take the penal responsibility of the U.S. imperialists to task according to the DPRK law any time. The Korean people will exercise this right generation after generation.
Those countries and nations that ignited wars and committed the massacres in the past have already made or are making repentance, apology and compensation for their wrongdoings.
This is an international trend and practice. The U.S. had better face up to the reality, swim with this trend and follow the practice.
