FINAL WARNING: The Communist Agenda
On June 24, 1950, the North Koreans swarmed across the 38th parallel,
and proceeded to overrun the country. Rhee appealed to the United
States, and the United Nations for help, as the communists closed in
on the South Korean capital of Seoul.Truman called for an immediate meeting of the United Nations Security
Council, who convened the next day, and called the attack a “breach of
the peace,” ordering the North Koreans to withdraw to the border. Two
days later, the Security Council called upon the UN members to furnish
assistance. Immediately the U.S. sent in ground troops and began air
strikes. On July 7, the Security Council urged 15 of the countries to put
their troops at the disposal of the United States, under the UN
command of Gen. Douglas MacArthur.With the UN being involved in the war, all U.S. battle plans had to be
submitted for approval, in advance, to the Under Secretary for Political
and Security Council Affairs. Due to a secret agreement made by
Secretary of State Edward Stettinius in 1945, this position was to
always be filled by a Communist from an eastern European country.
During the war, it was filled by Russia’s General Constantine
Zinchenko. It was later revealed, that Russian military advisors were
actually directing the North Korean war effort, and one of those
advisors, Lt. Gen. Alexandre Vasiliev, actually gave the order to attack.
Vasiliev was the Chairman of the UN Military Staff Committee, who
along with the Under Secretary for Political and Security Council
Affairs, was responsible for all UN military action. Vasliliev had to take
a leave of absence from his position, to command the communist
troops. So, what it boiled down to, was that the Communists were
controlling both sides of the war, and Russia was able to receive vital
information concerning all troop movements within the UN forces in
Korea, which was passed on to the North Koreans and Chinese.General MacArthur realized what was happening and planned one of
the most daring military assaults in the history of modern warfare. To
execute the engagement he hand-picked a group of trusted and loyal
officers so the initial stages would be kept a secret. MacArthur did not
submit the strategy to General Zinchenko. The resulting amphibious
assault on September 15, 1950, at Inchon Bay, turned the tide of the
war by enabling UN forces to recapture Seoul, destroyed large supply
dumps, and began to push the North Koreans back across the border.
