U.S. Imperialists, Most Hideous Homicide in World
Pyongyang, June 23 (KCNA) -- 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.

The U.S. imperialists committed monstrous murderous atrocities in south Korea, too.

Typical of them is the massacre perpetrated in Rogun-ri, Yongdong County, North Chungchong Province on July 23, 1950.

The U.S. imperialist aggression troops forced the people in Rogun-ri to leave the village, saying that the area might be converted into a battle site.

When lots of people turned out on the road to take refuge, fighter planes of the U.S. imperialists strafed them. When the refugees gathered in a tunnel to avoid the air-raid, the aggressors fired a volley at them to kill more than 400 people.

According to elementary data confirmed at that time, the people who were slaughtered by the fleeing U.S. imperialists numbered more than 5,000 in Inchon, over 1,100 in Suwon, over 600 in Phyongthaek, over 500 in Ansong, over 2,000 in Puyo, over 4,000 in Jonju, over 400 in Kunsan, over 600 in Kongju, over 400 in Anyang and over 2,060 in Chungju.

The thrice-cursed murderous atrocities committed by the U.S. imperialists during the Korean war can never be covered up no matter how many years pass by and the Korean people will settle accounts with the U.S. murderers for the sanguinary crimes without fail.
