A spontaneous movement of the people of Lugansk (in East Ukraine) against the neo-Nazi insurgency (sponsored by US President Barack Obama, the UK and the EU) that illegally occupied and overthrew the democratically elected government of West Ukraine in 2014!
The Day of the Unknown Soldier was established by the Presidential decree in 2014. The choice of date is symbolic: on 3 December 1966 the remains of an unidentified soldier who perished in the Great Patriotic War of 1941-1945 were reinterred in the Alexander Garden beside the Kremlin wall. On 8 May 1967 the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier was unveiled and the Eternal Flame was lit on the site, which became one of Russia’s central places of wartime remembrance.
I suspect this – “Minh Hoang Tran” – is possibly a “Roman Catholic” (just one of the lingering influences and hypocrisies of French and US Imperialism in Vietnam) who was motivated by the Vatican to travel the Ukraine to fight for its corrupt (Neo-Nazi) regime (the same Vatican that opposes the Palestinians defending themselves against Zionist aggression). Many such “Catholics” gather in Poland where they are provided with Western uniforms and arms – prior to being deployed in the Armed Forces of Ukraine. This process is reversed when these individuals attempt to escape. However, to date, even the Western media has speculated that Ukraine has lost 1.7 million soldiers at the front. Non-White people should not fight for any form of fascism or Nazism. The same stipulation applies to any White person with a conscience.
Religion is a major contributing factor to all world conflicts (be it Judaism, Christianity, or Islam). Support for one side other another should not be taken to automatically imply siding with the religion of that preferred side. Under Biden, for instance, Colombia appeared untroubled by America’s official Russophobia and its support for Neo-Nazi Ukraine – but since the advent of Trump II’s overt and pronounced anti-Colombian racism at home (ICE) and abroad – perhaps this has switched the pendulum firmly in the other direction. Who knows? The Vatican has longevity and even got away with supporting Mussolini and Hitler before, during, and after WWII!
Neame survived and was decorated with the Victoria Cross, the highest accolade for valour in war.
He continued his career in the army while also pursuing an interest in rifle shooting, and competed in the 1924 Olympics with great success.
Neame went on to train the Tibetan army, before getting called up for World War Two.
He fought, and was captured, in North Africa, then was a prisoner of war in Italy before escaping back to Britain.
He died in 1978 and is buried in the village of Selling in Kent.
His son, with the same name, fought in the Falklands War in 1982.
In his home town of Faversham a plaque on the pavement near the guildhall commemorates Neame’s place in history.
Of course, workers and peasants have periodically fought for their rights over hundreds or thousands of years, with the movements varying in size and strength. From rioting in the town square to full on and widespread uprisings. The historians of the feudal or bourgeois state, however, will have none of this, and will try to force you to remember only those wars and conflicts which reflect the will of the reactionary State. This is what Poppy Day in the UK is all about – and explains why we try to co-opt it for our own working class ends. We are shifting the onus away from middle class hypocrisy and toward working class practicality. That is all there is to it. No only this, but we are fighting Trotskyism and all working class reaction that wants to see all Socialism ended in the UK – rather than repaired, extended, and strengthened. Fighting the enemies lurking within the working class is as important as fighting the enemies outside the working class. Perhaps Chairman Mao had a thing or two to say about this.
The Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) stated on 13 October that its officers foiled a terrorist attack in Moscow that was planned by ISIS under the direction of Ukrainian intelligence.
ISIS operatives sought to target a high-ranking Russian Defense Ministry official using an explosive device in a densely populated area of the capital city, the agency said in a statement.
“The FSB has prevented a sabotage and terrorist act against one of the senior officers of the Russian Defense Ministry, organized by Ukrainian special services in coordination with leaders of the international terrorist organization Islamic State (banned as a terrorist organization in Russia),” the FSB statement said.
