Prosecutable US Crimes Against Humanity In Korea

62. The North Korean Army is responsible for that action.

In all wars, when one side uses civilians as shields from the fire of the other side, then the one side is responsible for the civilian casualties caused by fire from the other side. North Korea mixed in troops, not in uniform, with fleeing refugees. Once through the allied lines those troops attacked allied troops in rear areas and supply dumps, creating strong difficulties for the allies. Lacking manpower to search all the refugees, the only thing the allies could do was to close their lines. Once a military force closes its lines, anybody approaching the line will be fired upon. That is the brutal nature of war.

During WWII we shelled and bombed lots of French towns and cities, killing lots of good French citizens to be able to damage the German troops that were occupying the place. Nobody considered that to be anything but the fault of the Nazis.

The OP poster is nothing more than a NK apologist.

BTW - I knew about that type of action back in the early 1960s. I was watching a Korean War movie and there was a scene in which a column of refugees were approaching American lines. Mixed in with the refugees were NK troops. The American commander ordered artillery fire on the refugee column, and cried about what he had to do. But he had to do it to save his own troops from being attacked from behind. I don't remember the name of the movie.

When I joined the Army in 1964 I got to meet a bunch of Korean war vets. They told similar stories. Yes, it happened, and if Nk had obeyed the rules of war and not mixed troops in with civilians, it would not have happened.
