Korea had been occupied by Japan for 35 years, but after being “liberated” by the US after World War II it was immediately divided, with the South controlled by a fascist dictatorship installed by the US military occupation. In many parts of the South, the Korean people openly rebelled against the US puppet dictator Syngman Rhee who was ruthless in suppressing dissent. Mass murder and torture were commonplace. Rhee slaughtered hundreds of thousands of Koreans with the full knowledge and support of American military “advisers”. When the North attempted a re-unification of their country, Rhee carried out a long series of massacres of anyone in favor of a united Korea and, under the watchful eye of his US masters, slaughtered tens of thousands of political prisoners held in jails.
