As a Korean, I am very moved by solidarity, will, and spirit of the members of the Veterans for Peace, United States.<br /><br />I want to express my special thanks to all the members of the Veterans for Peace who have joined in the workshop on the Korean War. <br /><br />I put the photo with some summary and translation here.

That is the fact that clearly shows South Korea is an occupied country, she reminded. <br /><br />The cause and legacy of all the wars have been an artificial division by imperialism. Korea lives the very example as you see… When Korea is peacefully unified with the strong will of people from North and South Korea, then it would finally break the legacy of the imperialism. The imperialism would never want the peaceful unification of Korea in which the North and South would acknowledge, understand and respect each other’s uniqueness. Only by Korea’s peaceful unification, the key for the peace in the northeast Asia will be finally solved. And Koreans will be liberated from their immoral fates of their lands being used for the United States capitalists and military's attacking another countries under the name of strategic flexibility. <br /><br />For Koreans, to end the war alliance, to make the U.S. bases withdraw to their home, and to conclude peace treaty and accomplish peaceful unification should be some of their biggest historical responsibilities for themselves and world.<br /><br />And you seem to understand it and are truly with us! <br /><br />Thanks for your great spirit!<br /><br />No Base Stories of KoreaNO Base Stories of Koreahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14659424045461880462noreply@blogger.com
