(North) Korean News: "Revenge-vowing Meeting of Young People Held"

Guess who they want to get revenge against:

A revenge-vowing meeting of school youth and children was held in Sinchon County, South Hwanghae Province of the DPRK on June 22 on the occasion of "June 25 the day of the struggle against U.S. imperialism."

Reporter and speakers at the meeting recalled that after provoking a war of aggression on the DPRK the U.S. imperialists had massacred people without distinction of age or sex in the most brutal way that would make even beasts blush with shame.

They, on behalf of all the school youth and children, bitterly denounced the U.S. imperialists, sworn enemy of the Korean people, saying that every part of the country, including Sinchon County, is permeated with the Korean people's resentment toward the U.S. imperialists and the departed souls of many people mercilessly killed by the Yankee wolves are still furiously crying out for a thousand-fold revenge upon the Yankees.

More than half a century has passed since the ceasefire of the war, but U.S. imperialism remains unchanged in its aggressive nature, they said, noting that the U.S. imperialists persisting in the hostile policy towards the DPRK cooked up the UNSC's "resolution on sanctions," thus leading the situation of the Korean Peninsula to the brink of war.

They warned that the aggressors would only face merciless punishment as long as there are the invincible revolutionary armed forces guided by Kim Jong Il, the great brilliant commander of Songun, and equipped with strong nuclear deterrent and the school youth and children and people with burning hatred against the enemies.

Another headline referring to the Korean War proclaims "U.S. Imperialists, Most Hideous Homicide in World":

More than half a century has passed since Korea suffered the ravages of war started by the U.S. imperialists.

But historical evidences indicting the U.S. imperialists as the most devilish homicide in the world are being unearthed in different parts of the country, making people grind their teeth with indignation.

Many remains and belongings of those who were slaughtered by the U.S. imperialists and class foes have been excavated in Susan-ri, Kangso County, South Phyongan Province these years. Recently, remains of five bodies were unearthed, the skulls, backbones, limb bones and ribs of which were all damaged.

For 40-odd days when they occupied Susan area temporarily during the Korean war (June 25, 1950-July 27, 1953), the U.S. imperialists and the class foes slew over 1,050 people, one third of the population by every conceivable cold-blooded and barbarous method.

The U.S. imperialists massacred brutally the bare-handed peaceful people for the reason that they did not give up their system and ideology. The enemies committed similar crimes everywhere in the country where they set foot.

Millions of people were killed cruelly by the U.S. imperialists in the period of the Korean war.

The U.S. imperialists butchered more than 120,000 innocent people in Hwanghae Province (then) and over 35 300 patriots and inhabitants in Sinchon County during the temporary strategic retreat.

Not content with shooting people to death, the U.S. imperialists resorted to all cruel methods to kill people, which far surpassed those of the Hitler fascists. They buried them alive, picked them to death, hammered a nail into skull, sawed off the neck, hung them upside-down on tree branch to set fire on the head, gouged out eyeballs, skinned people, raped girls and women before cutting off their breasts.[...]

I wonder if the North Korean people realize this stuff is just as true as the blather about building a great powerful prosperous nation with the might of Songun.
