U.S. Built 'As a Result of Genocide'

The Kim Jong-il regime charges that America's legacy of slavery makes it inappropriate for Washington to comment on North Korea's human rights record. Blaming the flight of its own citizens on the United States and citing the U.S. ‘Cuban Adjustment Act,' this op-ed from North Korea's Communist Party newspaper even suggests that North Koreans are being kidnapped by American intelligence agencies.

Pyongyang: Fidel Castro, the President of Cuba's Council of State, recently charged that there is an organization in the U.S. that operates a global human trafficking network, charging that the United States is largely responsible for the scourge. He cited the U.S. "Cuban Adjustment Act" as “murderous,” claiming, he said, huge casualties over the last four decades.

[Editor's Note: The Cuban Adjustment Act of 1996 makes it easier for Cubans who flee the island to obtain permanent resident status and citizenship in the United States. It is unclear which “organization in the U.S.” the article might be referring to].

As a matter of fact, the phenomenon of human trafficking originated in the United States.

The United States was built as a result of genocide, and is the world's biggest human rights abuser as it has profited from centuries of slavery and trafficking in flesh. And this inglorious history has hardly come to an end. Contemporary American forms of massacre and human trafficking are rife in Iraq and various other countries.

Sinister plots are continuously being hatched by U.S. intelligence agencies to spirit North Korean citizens away to other countries. Washington's unethical human rights policies have similarly taken the lives of dozens of Cubans when they sought to illegally emigrate to the U.S. This was also part of their plan.

This proves that the blame for "human trafficking" and "human rights abuse," so publicized by Washington, rests with the U.S. itself, which is the root cause of disaster, misfortune and social evil worldwide.

Despite these hard facts, every year Washington is shameless enough to release a report on human trafficking and human rights, in which it assesses the human rights performance of over 100 countries. In particular, its accusing finger is pointed at socialist and independent countries. So it stitched together the "North Korean Human Rights Act," the "Cuban Adjustment Act" and other acts in a bid to justify its human rights policy and "regime change" for independent, anti-imperialist countries like Cuba and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The recent appointment of Washington's envoy for North Korean Human Rights was a provocative move that is just a part of its plan for "regime change" in North Korea.

The U.S. continues to behave as though it were a proper judge of human rights, although it is cursed and censured around the world as the kingpin of human trafficking and human rights abuse. This is folly that could only come from a country as politically and morally vulgar as America.

By nature, socialist societies don't allow human rights abuses like human trafficking to exist. The U.S. should be aware of this.
