The tribunal was cosponsored by the all-nation special committee for probe into the truth behind GIs' mass killings and anti-war peace organizations of different countries. At the tribunal the committee asserted that during the war the GIs committed massacres of civilians in over 60 areas in the south of Korea, including Rogun-ri in Yongdong county, North Chungchong Province, and more than 100 areas in the north, including Unryul and Sinchon, Hwanghae Province. The jury made up of 26 civilians decided to "convict all the U.S. presidents from Truman in 1945 to Bush, state and defense secretaries, heads of intelligence agencies at all levels and commanders of the U.S. forces stationed in South Korea of the mass killings and other war crimes committed against humanity, on the basis of a comprehensive judgement of all kinds of testimonies and reports, etc." Present as observers at this trial, which lasted for over 12 hours that day, were more than 700 people, including survivors from the Rogun-ri massacre, Koreans from the United States, Japan, Canada and other countries and activists of non-governmental organizations in different countries. An official of the overseas headquarters of the all-nation special committee said, "the tribunal was of significance as the GIs' mass killings were tried for the first time in history by civilian organizations from the north and the south of Korea, together with delegates from countries which participated in the last Korean War." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ ______________________________________________________________________ To unsubscribe, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
