Pyongyang, March 5 (KCNA) -- The United States is a criminal state violating human rights everywhere in the world.

The "war on terrorism", expanded to Pakistan after Afghanistan and Iraq by the U.S. for 10-odd years, has led to slaughters of innocent civilians.

In Afghanistan, the "war" has claimed more than 3 000 lives on a yearly average in recent years.

In five years from March 2003 when the U.S. invaded Iraq, at least 1 205 000 Iraqis were killed and one million missing, nearly half of them being children.

The U.S. has slaughtered many civilians by drone strikes in Pakistan.

The war of genocide by GIs has gone in company with heinous atrocities, arousing a great wrath among the world people.

In January 2012, a video was posted on an Internet website to show four U.S. marines urinating toward three dead Afghani prisoners with vulgar remarks. And in March a GI shot to death 16 civilians including sleeping women and children in houses. Among the GIs are criminals who were keeping some 4 000 photographs on their murderous deeds as a boast.

The U.S. has conducted maltreatment, torture and vivisection against the prisoners in its secret jails abroad, in wanton violation of international law on human rights and humanitarianism.

As exposed at the 64th UN General Assembly in 2009 and other international meetings and by American media, including Washington Post and New York Times, the U.S. has employed all sorts of tortures in overseas prisons such as forced feeding, electric drill torture and sexual torture prohibited by international law.

A Turkish-German, released from the Guantanamo prison, told in an interview with the newspaper Berliner Zeitung about the facts of living-body test by the GIs he had experienced in prison for more than four years.

Child abuse is a reliable predictor of post-traumatic stress disorder, but not all maltreated children suffer from it, according to Chad Shenk, assistant professor of human development and family studies, Penn State, who examined why some maltreated children develop PTSD and some do not.

Shenk and his research team found that adolescent girls who experienced maltreatment in the past year and were willing to talk about their painful experiences and their thoughts and emotions, were less likely to have PTSD symptoms one year later. Those who tried to avoid painful thoughts and emotions were significantly more likely to exhibit PTSD symptoms down the road. The researchers report their results in the current issue of Development and Psychopathology.

"Avoidance is something we all do," said Shenk. "Sometimes it is easier not to think about something. But when we rely on avoidance as a coping strategythat is when there may be negative consequences."

Approximately 40 percent of maltreated children develop PTSD at some point in their lives. Shenk sought to identify the factors that kept the remaining 60 percent from experiencing the disorder.

"Children and adolescents react very differently to abuse, and we don't yet know who is going to develop PTSD and who won't," said Shenk. "What factors explain who will develop PTSD and who will not? This study attempted to identify those causal pathways to PTSD."

One theory holds that PTSD is caused by dysregulation in multiple neurobiological processes, including cortisol deficiencies or heightened suppression of respiratory sinus arrhythmia -- each of which affects how individuals can remain calm during a time of stress.

There are also psychological theories, which include experiential avoidance, the tendency to avoid negative feelings like fear, sadness or shame. Shenk's study tested these theories by creating one statistical model that included them all to see which factors best accounted for PTSD symptoms.
