Cuba: Celebrating May Day – and the “Bay of Pigs” Victory for Socialism! (1.5.2023)

01/05/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Indeed, when the US-CIA invasion began, the ordinary Cuban people massed together and without waiting for orders from above, they themselves began to create columns of Volunteers, which immediately went into the battle zone to stop the enemy, armed with whatever they already had or could find! Many went into battle “unarmed”! More than a thousand captured US-CIA mercenaries were exchanged by Cuba for medicines and agricultural equipment – forcing the United States to temporarily violate the conditions of the criminal economic blockade of the island – which has been going on now – due to the inherent corruption of President Kennedy – for 63 years!

Palestine: Workers Demand Restructuring of the Trade Union Movement to Strengthen Unity for the Struggle on May Day! (1.5.2023)

30/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

After seventeen years of division in the Palestinian arena at the political and geographical levels, and what has multiplied it in terms of the costs, burdens, and requirements of life and living – the phenomenon of unemployment and the unemployed has increased! This has been seen especially among the youth and graduates with poverty and extreme poverty becoming a generalized phenomenon – in addition to the increase in the rate of taxes, customs and fees on Goods, the decline in the level of domestic production, the decline in the level and value of exports and the increase in dependence on importing food and industrial goods! This impoverishment has lead to the failure of granting poor families their entitlements from Social Security! In the absence of changing the existing model of power – this situation has harmed all aspects of economic development, social development and healthcare.

Jerusalem: Zionists Attack Muslims During Friday Prayers at Al-Aqsa! (27.4.2023)

27/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Since the morning, the Zionist Occupation Forces tightened their oppressive (racist) procedures at the gates leading into Al-Aqsa Mosque – whilst deliberately checking the cards of the arriving citizens – preventing many from entering! (This is reminiscent of the behaviour of Nazi Germans against the Jewish populations of Austria, Germany and elsewhere).

Palestine: Press Statement Issued by the Martyr Abu Ali Mustafa Brigades! (9.4.2023)

09/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

Let this Resistance be a continuous National Mission for all the Palestinian people and their supporting factions – acting against the Zionist Occupation and its settlers! Let us strive hand in hand (and shoulder to shoulder) whilst waging a comprehensive confrontation for our homeland until freedom and independence is achieved for our people!

Long live the struggle… Long live the comprehensive Resistance until Liberation and return!

Puppies: New Comrades for Our Commune! (8.4.2023)

08/04/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

These dogs are eight weeks old and are (chipped) and weaned. The mother looked really tired and exhausted after carrying her pups, giving birth and then raising them! She needed a break and it is good that we are in position to pay the purchase (courtesy of Diane Wyles) and relieve her burden! The owner of the mother is a good woman who is very organised, clean, tidy and honest! She treated us with respect and good grace! The dogs are very happy and have obviously been very well looked after! We got up on Saturday morning and headed out in the car toward Reading at around 1030 am! We arrived somewhere on the outskirts of Reading around 1245 pm! We saw the mother and then we let our two daughters choose which dog they thought was the best for them! Kai-Lin – although only six years old – has performed excellently at school and passed all her tests and so she is rewarded for her good labour! The (larger) dark brown and black dog is called ‘Zain’ chosen by Kai-Lin) and the (smaller) brown and white dog is called ‘Basal’ (chosen by Mei-An and named after the Swiss Chapter of the First International represented by the ‘Red Triangle’ which was eventually used in the centre of the Socialist Flag of the Spanish Republic – 1936-1939 – and used to denote the ‘International Brigades’).
