Anti-American march in North Korea: "The entire US territory is within our firing range."

Sunday marked the 73rd anniversary of the outbreak of the Korean war. In Pyongyang, who were the ones who started the war by invading their neighbor to the South, they celebrated it with a massive march to feed back their anti-american propagandapromising a “war of revenge for destroy america“, who the North Korean narrative holds responsible for that battle of the last century.

More of 120.000 personas participated in the demonstrations in the capital. Rodong Sinmun, the official newspaper of the regime, has published on Monday photographs of a stadium with thousands of workers and students, all wearing masks, who raised their fists and held signs that read: “The entire continental United States is within our shooting range“; “The imperialist USA is the destroyer of peace”; “Let us eradicate the US imperialist invaders”.

The Korean War broke out on June 25, 1950when North Korea attacked South Korea in an attempt to reunify the Korean Peninsula under Pyongyang’s control. In the conflict, which lasted three years, the Northern troops were backed by the Soviet Union and Chinawho fought against the forces of the United Nations led by the US.

And armistice signed by the heads of the UN Command, the North Korean army and the Chinese troops, stopped the fighting in 1953, but there was never a peace treaty between the two Koreas. Both neighbors are technically still at war. “The United States provoked the war and left the Koreans with injuries that they can never be cured“says another of the posters displayed during the march at the Pyongyang stadium.

The state news agency KCNA also noted in its summary that the protesters expressed pride in the expansion of the programs of missiles and nuclear weapons of North Koreapresuming that his country now has the “absolute strongest weapon to punish the US imperialists and the deterrence of war for self-defense that no enemy dares provoke”.
