PROTEST U.S. MILITARY KILLING of Shin Hyo Soon and Shim Mi Sun, two 13-year-old girls in south Korea
On June 13, 2002, a U.S. armored vehicle crushed to death two young Korean girls, Shin Hyo Soon and Shim Mi Sun, who were walking to a friend's birthday party. The vehicle was part of a convoy traveling to a training exercise 10 miles north of Seoul, south Korea. Thousands of Korean youth have mounted nearly daily protests demanding that the U.S. military hand over the two U.S. soldiers in the vehicle, that President Bush apologize, and that the U.S. withdraw its troops from Korea.
