Interesting episodes of crime and missing people – perhaps be can solve the mysteries together?
The official Palestinian news agency WAFA reported that Zakarneh was shot while she was on her house rooftop and found dead by her family. Israel’s Ha’aretz newspaper reported that she was filming the raid.
The incident was the latest in rising violence in the region, sparked by daily Israeli raids in the West Bank that often trigger clashes and lead to the killing of Palestinians. At least 166 Palestinians have been killed by Israeli forces in the West Bank since the raids began in March.
Translator’s Note: This is how we respond to the hatred, lies, war and genocide perpetuated by predatory capitalism and its fascist perpetuators – regardless of the time and space they manifest and exist – or the endless atrocities they commit! Down with capitalism, imperialism, poverty and exploitation! Down with Trotskyism – and onward to genuine Revolution! Although the Imperial Japanese caused a great suffering throughout the world – many of their dead soldiers were found to have Communist literature in their pockets – and this worried the US Government (which had ordered the shooting of as many wounded Japanese POWs as possible)! This ‘capitalist’ fear led to the dropping of two atom bombs on a non-White country (Japan) – when this country possessed absolutely NOTHING to fight back with! Yes – the Japanese committed the Nanjing Massacre in 1937 – but we must not forget that the Japanese worker is also our Comrade and that he and she are also the victims of self-imposed feudalism, (Western) imperialism and capitalist oppression! We respond to the terror of ‘fascism’ with the love and forgiveness of ‘Internationalism’ – and we hold higher the Red Flag of Freedom! ACW (8.12.2022)
The Nanjing Massacre took place when Japanese troops captured the then-Chinese capital on Dec. 13, 1937. Over six weeks, they killed approximately 300,000 Chinese civilians and unarmed soldiers in one of the most barbaric episodes of World War II.
Xiang’s brother and uncle were killed by Japanese invaders. On the way to retrieve the bodies of his family, Xiang saw corpses piled up on the river beach, and men, women, and children lying in blood. He survived as he had escaped to a refugee area.
In 2014, China’s top legislature designated Dec. 13 as the national memorial day for the victims of the Nanjing Massacre.
The Chinese government has preserved the survivors’ testimonies, recorded in written documents and video footage. These records of the massacre were listed by UNESCO in the Memory of the World Register in 2015.
Since 1991, the post-Soviet space has been inundated with far-right political ideology and religious extremism – as it is a combination of these two ideological thrusts that the US believed would uproot the ‘Internationalism’ and selfless and caring aspects perpetuated by the ideology of Marxist-Leninism! This is why Russia today is inherently (and disturbingly) racist, sexist, homophobic and highly nationalistic! All these things are present amongst the Russian population – and yet the same population appears collectively to be unable to discern the contradiction that these cultural attributes are ‘fascist’ and directly mirror the equivalent Neo-Nazi attitudes common throughout the Ukraine! In other words, Russians are being asked to fight and die in the Ukraine in an attempt to stamp-out exactly the same far-right ideology that runs rampant in their own country! In reality, this far right ideology was imported into the post-Soviet space by the US between 1991-1999 – after which time Russian leaders started to take control of their own country in a more effective manner. Therefore, there is no ‘Socialism’ within Russia and Russians in general react to the conflict in Ukraine with an unquestioning and thoroughly ‘racist’ nationalist fervour! The point is that as repugnant as modern Russia is, as a nation Russians are fighting the Neo-Nazism the US, UK and EU have financed and armed in the Ukraine. I oppose Russian capitalism just as much as I oppose Ukrainian Neo-Nazism – but as the Russian Armed Forces are currently opposing Neo-Nazism in the Ukraine – I narrowly support that fight.
Saying that China supports the strengthening of the authority of the Palestinian National Authority and the enhancement of unity among all parties in Palestine, Xi expressed the hope that Palestine and Israel could resume peace talks as soon as possible so as to bring the peace process in the Middle East back on track.
Xi said China will, as always, provide humanitarian and development assistance to the Palestinian side, support its capacity building and help Palestine develop its economy and improve people’s livelihood.
As a permanent member of the UN Security Council and a responsible major country, China will continue to work with the international community to make positive contributions to the lasting peace, universal security and common prosperity in the Middle East, Xi added.
