More Crimes of US occupation troops

Crimes of Occupation Troops (4)
Aggressors' Pillages

The people cannot live at peace in the land where robbers are rampant. So is south Korea. The U.S. forces forcibly deprived south Koreans of their houses and arable land to convert south Korea into a huge military base.
  On April 16,1957 80 fully armed military policemen belonging to the U.S. 24th division seized and surprised the peasants of 305 families residing in Yongju-dong, Yonphung-ri,Junae Sub-county, Phaju County, Kyonggi Province to take away all their property. The invaders did not hesitate to kidnap over innocent 70 protesters. Only in Phaju County, the aggressors looted 600 inhabitants of their arable land, houses and property, leaving them without shelter.
Later, the U.S. 8th Army corps expelled peasants of more than 300 families in Rimjin, Phaphyong, Chonhyon and Joksong sub-counties of Paju County again under the pretext of the "illegal residence". It was indeed like "the guilty party filing the suit first".
In March 1960 a soldier belonging to the U.S. 7th division jumped into a civilian house in Rithaewon-dong, Ryongsan District, Seoul and ran away with money and goods after raping a woman. In November 1965 in Phaju County a GI knifed in the neck of a taxi driver and stifled him to unconsciousness before driving the car away. Such horrible incidents took place in different parts of south Korea in succession.
On November 12, 1971 15 U.S. intruded into a restaurant in Choryang-dong, East District, Pusan City and picked an unreasonable quarrel with waiters to stab and beat them with bottles at random, wounding 8 employees seriously.
A similar atrocity was committed in a restaurant in Uijongbu, Kyonggi Province in February 1998 by corporal belonging to a field support company 473 of the U.S. forces.
He committed even a crime of setting fire on the building in an attempt to cover his crime.
All these atrocities clearly show that the U.S. imperialist aggressor troops are hordes of brutes and murderers who are imbued with man-hating ideas.
