President Nicolas Maduro - Iconic Resistance to US Terrorism!

Venezuela: President Nicolas Maduro – Displays “Iconic Resistance” to US Terrorism [video] – Spain Condemns Trump! (4.1.2026)

The President of the Spanish Government, Pedro Sánchez, “resolutely” condemned the “recent violation of international law” in reference to the US military attack on Venezuela, which led to the kidnapping of the constitutional president of the Republic, Nicolás Maduro, and the First Lady, Cilia Flores.

Sánchez stated that the world, and particularly the West, “seems determined to return us to that terrible past from which it took us almost a century to escape”.

He also noted: “They seem to want to persuade us that the era of peace and progress has already passed” and it’s now the turn of what he calls the “regression dictated by the ultra-right international with the complicity of the traditional right”.

All 14 individuals from the northern cemetery possessed the same maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA haplogroup — a genetic population group sharing a common ancestor — and exhibited identical mitochondrial DNA sequences, while 44 of the 46 individuals from the southern cemetery had another mitochondrial DNA haplogroup and identical mitochondrial DNA sequences, indicating that the individuals in each group shared a maternal lineage.

UK: Ancient DNA Reveals West African Ancestry in Early Medieval England! (4.1.2026)

Archaeologists have analysed the DNA of two unrelated individuals buried in seventh-century-AD cemeteries on the south coast of England, revealing that they both had recent ancestors, likely grandparents, from West Africa.

During the Early Middle Ages, England saw significant migration from continental northern Europe. Historical accounts describe the settlement of Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, who gave their names to the Anglo-Saxon period and perhaps the country itself. However, the extent of movement from further afield was less clear.

“Migration and its direction, scale and impact have been much debated in European archaeology,” state the authors. “Archaeogenetic research can now provide new insight, even identifying individual migrants”.

Colombia: Ancient Checua DNA Reveals “New Group of Humans” With No Genetic Ties to People Today! (4.1.2026)

Scientists have found genetic evidence of an ancient group of people in Colombia with no modern-day descendants. It’s as if they simply vanished from the face of the Earth. What’s more, they’re also not closely related to the ancient Native American populations that scientists had thought would be their ancestors.

“This is unexpected,” Andre Luiz Campelo dos Santos, an archaeologist from Florida Atlantic University who did not participate in the research, tells Adithi Ramakrishnan at the Associated Press. “Up to this point, we didn’t believe there was any other lineage that would appear in South America.”

An international team of researchers described the discovery in a study published in late May in the journal Science Advances. They analyzed DNA from the bones and teeth of 21 individuals found at five archaeological sites in the Altiplano—the high plains around Bogotá—dating to between 500 and 6,000 years ago. The analyses represent Colombia’s first ancient human genomes ever to be published.

The Bolivarian Government and the people of Venezuela express their sincerest gratitude to South Africa for its prompt convening of a session of the UN Security Council, in response to the unilateral military action of the United States against Venezuela, which constitutes a flagrant violation of the United Nations Charter. Likewise, we value its urgent call to all UN Member States to refrain from threatening or using force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any nation.

Opposing US Aggression: We Salute President Maduro & the Brave People of a Socialist Venezuela – “All You Need is Love!” (3.1.2026)

The hippies possessed no material weaponry accept “love” – and unfortunately – bullets of iron and steel can pierce a body enthused with this “love” – rendering it a lifeless cadaver. Furthermore, even before the bullets are fired – the deliberate oppression that is “social engineering” is often used to “soften-up” any and all opposition to predatory capitalism and its mania for death. Like many of the more “mature” people amongst us – I am old enough now to have witnessed to the same strategy and tactics deployed by the hideous and demonic government of a US government hell-bent on reducing the entire population of a world into wage-slaves and profit-earners for the privileged top 10%. The UK should have finished-off this aberration in 1776, 1812, or even in 1861 by taking the side of the Confederacy (we might as well have done – as thousands of British fought for the South)! The UK had its chances and we let humanity down!
