When US Muslims UNITED With the Far-Rght to Ban Pride Flags! (19.6.2023)

This left of centre attitude does not take into account the ‘change’ in circumstance some of these communities undergo – or the fact that the far-right trades off of these changes (pointing-out the perceived ‘injustices’)! Of course, this debate hinges on all the elements comprising ‘advantage’ and ‘disadvantage’! What happens when the balance tips the other way? Whereas Black, Hispanic, Latino, Indigenous, Asian and Abiogeny people have had to tolerate White rule over the centuries – what happens when a non-White section of the White-dominated multicultural community comes into a position of political dominance? Well, Gay Pride Flags are banned, of course! Just imagine what will happen if a British community is democratically ‘infiltrated’ by a group of Neo-Nazi Ukrainians – and they vote to ‘ban’ British celebrations surrounding WWII Commemorations! It would become a ‘crime’ to oppose Hitler!

UK: Father’s Day! (18.6.2023)

and so I have acquired the Box Set of the British TV Series ‘Catweazle’! This was first on our TV screens in 1969 (written by Richard Carpenter) and tells the story of ‘Catweazle’ an eleventh century CE Wizard – who mistakenly manages to travel forward in time to the 20th century! Whatever happens – it is just the ‘next step’ and does not really matter in the greater scheme of things!

Islamic Republic of Iran: Maziar Kebat (مازیار کتابت) Chen Style Taijiquan Practice in the Southwest Fars Province! (18.6.2023)

The setting is beautiful as is the high quality of the martial technique! I suspect that we may assume from this that ‘Taijiquan’ is considered ‘Halal’ within the faith of Islam – a fact which grants the practitioners a certain enhanced ‘virtue’. In China, Islam (and Muslims) are greatly respected for a) their spiritual purity and b) their martial integrity! Good to see Taijiquan in Iran and the people united in practice!

Schrodinger’s Cat: Paul Miller and the Far-Right – Some Kind of Joke? (16.6.2023) 

The point I am making is that unlike those other far-right deficients ‘Rob Rundo’, ‘Tommy Robinson’ and ‘Rob Wilson’, etc, the person known as ‘Paul Miller’ is NOT ‘White’ as defined by Hitler’s notion of what it means to be ‘Aryan’! Indeed, according to the hate filled ideology of Hitler’s Mein Kampf – ‘Paul Miller’ (as a ‘Romany’), his father (Romany) and his mother (Mexican) are all racially ‘inferior’ parasites that need to be REMOVED from society! Paul Miller is NOT ‘White’ – and BLM should be asking what exactly is happening here? Even the Atom Waffen SS has publicly stated that ‘Paul Miller’ is NOT ‘White’ – and I have seen a number of Black users of Omegle assert that in their view ‘Paul Miller’ is really of ‘Chinese’ origination! This probably stems from the Asian DNA that all Romany people carry. Instead of an outraged world fixating upon the symptoms of an injury – perhaps the same world should be taking steps to protect the individual concerned from himself and others – whilst a proper treatment is developed to ‘cure’ or ‘remove’ the problem!

China: Laos President Meets with Senior CPC Official in Kunming! (16.6.2023)

He said China is willing to work with Laos to implement the important consensus reached by Xi and Thongloun, deepen exchanges and mutual learning on governance, strengthen exchanges and cooperation on anti-corruption, and promote new development of the two parties and two countries.

Thongloun asked Li to convey his best wishes to General Secretary Xi Jinping and Professor Peng Liyuan, and expressed readiness to work with China to firmly promote the building of a Laos-China community with a shared future.

He wished the Chinese people greater achievements under the strong leadership of the CPC Central Committee with Comrade Xi Jinping at its core.

Laos Buddhist Socialist Republic: Laos-Cuba Ministries of Justice Strengthen Bilateral Co-Operation! (14.6.2023)

An ongoing exchange of experts will create a data-base of legal understanding amongst the masses upon how the legal sector is organized and how it works and functions! This will involve lessons on organization and arranging seminars – as well as how to facilitate practical training in the classroom (and other similar activities). This approach is based on the principle of mutual benefit – which will also improve the standards of professional education and training for all legal staff (and other professionals).
