According to media reports, a commander of the Baloch National Army that had surrendered himself to the Pakistani government disclosed that India has been secretly supporting terrorist activities in Balochistan and financing Balochistan separatist forces.

BEIJING, Dec. 25 (Xinhua) — China Post will issue a commemorative stamp set on Tuesday to mark the 130th anniversary of the birth of Mao Zedong.
A total of 7.8 million of these stamp sets, with a denomination of 4.8 yuan (about 68 U.S. cents) for each set, can be purchased at designated postal outlets and online shops over the next six months.
Each set contains four stamps, featuring the themes of persistence in the Chinese People’s War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, construction of the Ming Tombs Reservoir, the holding of a global vision, and returning to the Jinggangshan Mountains.
Mao was born on Dec. 26, 1893 and died on Sept. 9th, 1976.
We extend our heartfelt thanks to all the churches that have sent messages of support and courageously spoken out against these crimes. Your commitment to justice and your unwavering support are greatly appreciated during these dark times.
Jesus was born under occupation and oppression, the story of his birth, life, death and resurrection exemplifies the struggle for justice. 2,000 years later, the Palestinian experience is still one of struggle for justice.
For the first time, the tradition of lighting Bethlehem’s tree will not take place. What was once a season of joy has become a season of mourning.
Let us unite, in a spirit of solidarity and justice, and the spirit of Christmas, to ensure that next year, Christmas will be celebrated in a free Palestine, in a free Bethlehem, in a free Jerusalem, and in a free and healing Gaza.
Wishing you and your loved ones a peaceful Christmas.
I’ve been wearing mine around London since October 7th, 2023 in Solidarity with the ordinary Palestinian people – and nothing has happened to me yet. Furthermore, I have also heard that the British Police have also been warning and/or arresting individuals for flying (or holding) a Palestinian flag in public! This is despite pro-Palestinian Protests attracting hundreds of thousands of people from across the British Isles! Surely, such oppression is not worthy of the only country that would grant Karl Marx (and Friedrich Engels) political asylum during the mid-1800s – when no other European country would do so!
The post-1945 UN, of course, was heavily influenced by Joseph Stalin at its beginning – hence Tariq Ali’s attack upon it. Tariq Ali is actually discussing the pre-existing ‘League of Nations’ – rather than the UN – but this is all part of his ‘entryist’ strategy that misleads as it informs. As a secular Muslim he automatically takes the Palestinian side – which is an expression of the inherently ‘racist’ attitudes that exist within Trotskyism (hence Ali’s anti-China views). The argument against Israeli fascism is one of the asymmetric application of International Law – and should not involve the arbitrary application of ‘race’ or ‘religion’.
GAZA, Dec. 19 (Xinhua) — The death toll of Palestinians from Israeli attacks in the Gaza Strip has risen to 19,667, and 52,586 others were wounded since Oct. 7, the Hamas-run Health Ministry said on Tuesday.
Meanwhile, Palestinian deaths and injuries from Israeli raids in the West Bank climbed to 301 and 3,365, respectively, according to the ministry.
In Gaza, over the past 24 hours, 214 Palestinians were killed, and 300 others injured in Israel’s raids, while a large number of victims were still under the rubble, Ashraf Al-Qedra, Health Ministry spokesman, said at a press conference held in the southern Gaza Strip.
Al-Qedra accused the Israeli army of destroying hospitals in northern Gaza Strip and putting them out of service.
