Korean People Demand End to U.S. Military Presence
Pyongyang, September 8 (KCNA) -- Seventy years has passed since the U.S. imperialists occupied the southern part of Korea.

In the period the U.S. aggression troops have committed all sorts of crimes in south Korea, turning it into their colony.

When a popular uprising took place in Jeju Island in April 1948, they killed in a cruel way more than 70 000 islanders, equivalent to one fourth of its population.

In the period before the Korean War alone, the GIs massacred at least one million innocent people in south Korea.

After the war (1950-1953), the U.S. troops present in south Korea have killed a large number of inhabitants, debasing them as "field mouse".

Among those killed are Yun Kum I, Jon Tong Rok, Sin Hyo Sun and Sim Mi Son. The murderous crimes by GIs are beyond human imagination in terms of scale, cruelty and durability.

Such heinous crimes as man-killing by the GIs still continue in south Korea without letup, due to the humiliating S. Korea-U.S. "Status of Forces Agreement" (SOFA) which provides the occupation troops with privileges and extraterritoriality.

The south Korean people should get the unequal "SOFA" abrogated and punish the pro-American traitors and drive out the U.S. imperialist aggression troops violating the nation's dignity from south Korea.
