The pro-Yoon rioters attacking police & using violence to break into the courthouse are actually ‘anti-state forces,’ a term often used by the suspended/arrested President Yoon to refer to any group that opposed or criticized him.

US Rep. Brad Sherman in his interview w/ K-media: “Tens of thousands of U.S. troops are ready to sacrifice while fighting, but we do not want troops to die from a war that broke out in a 'disguise operation' in the absence of North Korea's provocation."

It seems that Yoon’s lengthy statement is aimed at his core & light supporters. The rhetoric sounds familiar to what you can hear on right-wing YouTube channels. Doesn’t matter to him whether it’s factually true or not. Interesting to see how some “quiet” Koreans will interpret this.
