Stop Fascist Suppression on Pro-reunification Movement Organizations!
As was
reported, the ¡°National Intelligence
Service¡± and the police authorities of south Korea kicked off forced
searches of the South Headquarters of the National Alliance for the Country¡¯s
Reunification, its local offices and the houses of their members on May 7,
confiscated lots of documents, publications and computers, and arrested and took to the police station
cadres of the organization including the chairman, executive director and head
of the propaganda department of the South Headquarters.
They
also conducted wholesale searches of the houses of the core members of the
north Chungcheong provincial branch of the National
Federation of Peasants Associations, the north Chungcheong
provincial headquarters of the Solidarity for Realizing the June 15 South-North
Joint Declaration and the chairman of the policy committee of the Democratic
Labor Party, and the offices of the Council of Youth Organizations of south
Korea, the Wonju Youth Society and the Chuncheon Youth Society, and arrested several persons.
The
frenzied moves of search, confiscation and arrest by the Lee Myong-bak group against the progressive forces including
the pro-reunification organizations are a really grave event unheard-of since
These
moves are an undisguised declaration of war aiming to clean up all the
patriotic pro-reunification forces desirous of defending and implementing the
June 15 joint declaration and the October 4 declaration and crack down on their
righteous activities, and unpardonable anti-reunification fascist acts that
further aggravate the north-south confrontation.
As
far as the South Headquarters of the National Alliance for the Country¡¯s Reunification
is concerned, it is a leading force of the south Korean people's movement for
independence, democracy and reunification, and a staunch patriotic
pro-reunification organization which has weathered the suppression and
persecution of the anti-reunification forces since its formation, and waged the
bloody struggle for the national unity and reunification.
Nevertheless,
the Lee group of traitors suppressed the south headquarters and other patriotic
pro-reunification organizations by absurdly condemning them as ¡°pro-north
leftist forces¡± which hail the ¡°system in the north¡± and receive the ¡°north¡¯s
instructions¡±, and launched the madcap suppression campaigns wielding the
notorious ¡°National Security Law¡±.
Traitor
Lee Myong-bak should retract at once the labeling of
the pro-reunification movement organizations as ¡°organizations benefiting the enemy¡± and
immediately release those who were unlawfully arrested, plainly aware of the trend of the times which dynamically
advances towards independent reunification upholding the banner of ¡°By Our
Nation Itself¡±.
The
AINDF and the patriotic people of all strata will more vigorously wage the
struggle in firm solidarity to abolish the ¡°National Security Law¡±, an
anti-democratic, anti-human rights and anti-reunification evil law, and to
frustrate the suppression moves of traitor Lee against the pro-reunification
movement.
