Russian Revisionist Opinion of the US Marines in Korea - Page 4

Capt. G Doidzhasvili, Soviet Navy

Already 80 years ago, i.e., in 1871, units of the U.S. Marine Corps carried out their predatory attack on Korea, encroaching on its freedom and independence with a view to seizing the rich and fertile lands and enslaving the Korean people.

Seventeen years later U.S. Marines disembarked in Korea for the second time. This was on 19 June 1888, during the insurrection of the Korean people against foreign oppressors.

Six years later, the American government again, already for the third time, tried to take over control of Korea by sending a Marine detachment to repeat the disembarkation of a landing force and the campaign against the Korean capital.

In 1904, at the orders of the government, the American Marine Corps disembarked for the fourth time in Korea, pursuing the very same aim - the seizing and enslavement of Korea.

However, the four failures of the attempts to conquer Korea did not benefit the American imperialists. In the summer of 1950, they undertook on a wider scale and a more monstrous form their bloody filthy offensive against the Korean people. But there can be no doubt that on this occasion, also, they will not achieve their predatory aims here.
