The New Rallying Cry

Nomad said it well, it looks like the anti-US hate groups have a new rallying cry since their references to the 1980 Gwangju Massacre failed; they are now trying bring up the ghosts of the 2002 2ID tank accident in order to drum up support from the general Korean public:

The Pan-National Committee to Deter the Expansion of U.S. Bases, a coalition of activists opposing the relocation of U.S. Forces Korea headquarters, is making plans for yet another large-scale protest at the site in Pyeongtaek, Gyeonggi Province on June 11. The coalition seems bent on invoking a 2002 accident in which a U.S. Army vehicle ran over two middle school students in nearby Yangju by staging the rally around the fourth anniversary of the deaths. The incident occurred on June 13, but the committee scheduled the demonstration on Sunday, June 11 to enable more people to attend.

It is interesting that they are going to use the tank accident as a rallying cry when one of the primary reasons for the base consolidation plan is to prevent these traffic accidents from ever happening again.  These people are truly scum and should just let these two girls rest in peace.
