No to F22 raptor planes and arms build up in Korea- UK KFA

UK KOREAN FRIENDSHIP ASSOCIATION
                 London 2nd of April
              The UK Korean Friendship Association strongly condemns the latest US imperialist warmongering moves against the Democratic People's Republic of Korea such as the deployment of F22 stealth jets in Korea and sending 2 guided
missile destroyers the USS Fitzgerald and USS John McCain to the waters around Korea.
                     This comes hot on the heels of the flights of B52 and B2A nuclear
bombers over Korea.The situation in Korea resembles that of Iraq just before the start of the Iraq War in 2003 . The US has not learnt its lesson from that war.

      These moves are not only part of the ongoing US war exercise in south Korea which target the DPRK and the nuclear blackmail but part of a longer term arms buildup in south Korea by the US imperialists.  The Korean National
Peace Committee states
"According to the "2012 report on structure of bases" published by the U.S. Defense Department last year, the number of the U.S. forces in south Korea increased nearly 11 000 troops in September 2009.
Many latest war hardware including at least 160 Bradley armoured cars, over 120 M1-A2 Abrams new type heavy tanks, 83 anti-mine special cars and 24 F-16 fighter bombers were additionally deployed in the U.S. forces in south Korea from 2011 to 2012.
This year the U.S. seeks to reintroduce into south Korea the 23rd chemical battalion which was withdrawn in 2004, double AH-64D Apache helicopter squadrons and reinforce Patriot missile forces.
The U.S. forces in south Korea have been reinforced by troops equal to one division in one to two years. The U.S. is mulling steadily introducing ultra-modern war hardware into it. This is a very dangerous move to ignite a nuclear war on the Korean Peninsula at any cost".
  This starkly shows the dark intentions of the US imperialists to provoke anotherwar in Korea and also to overcome the DPRK  by force. It is the intention of the
US to overpower the DPRK , disarm it , destroy it socialist system , occupy it  and colonise it.
                   The UK Korean Friendship Association along with its allied organisations the Juche Idea Study Group of England and the Assocation for the Study of Songun Politics UK calls for the  USS John McCain and USS Fitzgerald to be turned back and the F22 jets withdrawn . There should be no more B52 and B2 flights  and the military exercises stopped at once.
