Germ Warfare Waged by US during Korean War (3)
Pyongyang, February 14 (KCNA) -- The U.S. use of germ weapons in the 1950-1953 Korean War had lashed the whole world into great fury.

At that time, the protest against the U.S. germ warfare was growing stronger in the Soviet Union, Poland, Bulgaria, Romania, Vietnam, India, Italy, France, UK, Australia and many other countries and international bodies.

Protest rallies took place one after another and many governments, political parties and organizations and personages of different social standings sent written protests, statements, letters and telegrams to the United Nations and other international bodies to express their surging wrath.

World media carried articles and statements condemning the U.S. germ warfare and calling for punishing the U.S. imperialist cannibals.

In March 1952 the World Peace Council in its appeal said that the U.S. germ warfare was a heinous crime equivalent to the U.S. nuclear attack on Hiroshima, which killed hundreds of thousands of inhabitants in some seconds.

The world public branded the U.S. barbarians as the enemy of humankind, contending that they far surpassed the Hitler fascists in brutality and inhumanity.

In March 1952 the International Association of Democratic Lawyers' fact-finding team announced a communique on the criminal germ warfare of the U.S. imperialist aggression army and then a "report on the U.S. crimes in Korea" after its two-week investigation.

This report, which involved delegates from various countries and even the U.S. allies taking part in the Korean War, clearly went to prove that the U.S. used germ and chemical weapons in the war in breach of international conventions.

No statue of limitations is applicable to this crime committed by the U.S. in the war.

The U.S. is sure to be brought to the court of history, and anyone attempting to deny or cover up this stark fact will be regarded as the enemy common to humankind.
