Nodutdol's US Out of Korea campaign seeks to educate the public about US military aggression in Korea, which is pushing the peninsula towards a renewed state of war.

The Korean War is the longest war in US history. During the Korean War, the US slaughtered between 3-5 million civilians. The US continues to occupy Korea to this day, with 28,500 US troops stationed across 62 military bases. In recent years, these US troops have drastically escalated their military activity in Korea, sending tensions sky-high and bringing the peninsula closer to a new war than ever.

The US and South Korean militaries stage hundreds of drills each year that rehearse the invasion of North Korea, the “decapitation” of its leadership, and even the use of nuclear weapons against the Korean people. While the US claims these drills are for defensive purposes, in reality, they threaten the safety of the Korean people and endanger the entire world. The real motivation behind US escalation in Korea lies with the warmongers in Washington and on Wall Street who wish to turn Korea into a battlefield in their New Cold War against China.

As Koreans in the US, we are launching the US Out of Korea campaign to put a stop to US aggression against our people. For decades, the US government has covered up its crimes in South Korea, placed North Korea under a crushing blockade, and maneuvered to keep Korea divided and in a state of constant tension. US imperialism in Korea does not serve the interests of Korean people, or for that matter, the majority of Americans. We are building a movement to protect our own homeland, support the working people of the US in building political power to end the US’s forever wars, and create a system that truly serves the majority.
