Tens of Thousands of Koreans Forced to Work in Japan!

DPRK: Press Statement – Association of Korean Victims of WWII Forcible Drafting and Bereaved Families! (14.3.2025)

Hundreds of B-29 large bombers of the U.S. forces flew into the sky over Tokyo and Osaka of Japan on March 10 and 13, 1945, the end of the Pacific War ignited by the Japanese imperialists, made massive air raids while dropping incendiaries and other bombs at random.

At that time the Japanese imperialists kept Koreans in custody in groups, claiming that Koreans who had been subjected to subhuman maltreatment and humiliation, dangerous and toilsome labour could escape in the confusion of air raids. As a result, many Koreans died an accidental death.

According to “Study of War Responsibilities” No.53, the organ of the Japanese Data Center for War Responsibilities, on the damage of Korean people in the large-scale air raids on Tokyo, the war victims are 41 300 and the death toll will far exceed 10 000.

The Beatles: What John Lennon Never Quite Managed to ‘Imagine’! (17.4.2023) 

The difference is that whereas Marx and Engels stood by the message inherent within their Revolutionary work – The Beatles steadfastly ‘stood apart’ from the Revolutionary message that is at the heart of their music! The capitalist system brought them off – but that is the nature of the music business and the entire point of all its machinations! The music industry generates very good capitalists but generally very poor Revolutionaries! It is as if the music itself, that is the collaborative effort, transcended the individuality of the four men who comprised The Beatles – and the general (limiting) attitudes of EMI! The interesting point is that The Beatles music remains dialectically forceful despite Paul McCartney’s Knighthood and all the other nonsense the Bourgeois State has draped around the historical image of The Beatles! Whether The Beatles like it or not, the music they produced in search of profit possesses a quality that ‘pierces’ through the very same ‘search for profit’! The music is itself a form of Revolutionary ‘force’ that John Lennon never quite managed to comprehend. Imagine that!

USSR: Exposing the ‘Myth’ of Soviet Excesses During WWII! (15.1.2025)

It strikes me that the type of US anti-intellectualism that has allowed the history of the USSR to be distorted in the way it has, is exactly the same inverted mind-set that voted the fascist Donald Trump into power, and concocted all kinds of racist, sexist and ablest policies that culminated in the fake ‘fixed’ election story – and the Trump inspired ‘White Supremacy’ march upon the Congress building situated in Washington DC! This type of utter stupidity is distinctly American – but it is not new. In the past decades its dictates were accepted without question – but we live in a very different world today. US anti-intellectualism is now under the microscope and the entire world now knows what it looks like!
