It has been 110 years since the unlawful "Korea-Japan Annexation Treaty" was fabricated. The "Korea-Japan Annexation Treaty", which had been faked in violation of the international principle and regulations, was a forged treaty without signature and seal of the then Korean emperor.   With the treaty, Japan rubbed out Korea that had existed for mere form's sake, reduced Korea into its colony and enforced oppressive rule for decades.  Japan’s occupation of Korea and its colonial rule was hideous unethical and anti-state crimes unprecedented in the history of world. The Korean people are shaking with anger at enormity, inhumanity and brutality of Japan which had tried to obliterate Korea on the earth, pursuing the policy of stamping out the Korean nation.   Japan had inflicted indescribable misfortune pains upon the Korean people in the last century. The historical facts can never be erased or covered up no matter how much water may flow under the bridge. ...

Commentary of AINDF Spokesman      Recently, the south Korean authorities are busy with their efforts to lift the south Korea-Japan relations from a stalemate. The south Korean authorities have taken a brownnosing attitude to Japan, while saying “great attachment to relations”, “an important neighbor” and “an uninterrupted efforts for fence-mending”. One year-long frayed high-ranking dialogue channel has been reinvigorated and they have exchanged information about north Korea under the signboard of the general security of military intelligence agreement (GSOMIA) with Japan. The south Korean diplomatic authorities have exerted their efforts to improve bilateral relations, making a litany of such assertions solution through diplomacy and expectation of cooperation.

Commentary of AINDF Spokesman  It has been reported that the Pentagon presented a plan for the reduction of the US forces in south Korea to the White house after studying it.   In this regard, the south Korean public is vocal calling for total pullout of the US troops not reduction. But the south Korean authorities have misgivings about it. It is a disgusting behavior of servants of the US colony who are steeped in pro-US worship and regard dependence on outsiders as a mode of its existence.   The US military occupation of and colonial domination over south Korea are the source of trouble by which the south Korean people have suffered and a main cause of disturbing peace and stability of the Korean Peninsula.   Far from driving out the US forces from south Korea, they are cling tightly to the coattail of the American master. The withdrawal of the US troops from south Korea is the unanimous desire of the era and people. Peace and genuine life of the...
