Brazil's president accuses Israel of "genocide" against Palestinians

Brazil: President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva – Israel Committing “Genocide” Against Palestinians! (19.2.2024)

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict is not being waged between two armies, but rather Israel’s military is committing “genocide” against civilians in the Gaza Strip, Lula said during a press conference in Ethiopia’s capital Addis Ababa.

What Israel’s military is doing is in the same way that Nazi Germany under Adolf Hitler and other European countries exterminated their Jewish populations in the first half of the 20th century, Lula said.

“What is happening in the Gaza Strip with the Palestinian people has no parallel in other historical moments. In fact, it existed when Hitler decided to kill the Jews,” said the Brazilian president.

Working in the Rice Fields!

Hakka Farming & Gongfu! (16.2.2024)

A post regarding the link between the farming environment, keep fit and Hakka martial arts. Of course, this is not ordinary keep fit – but body and mind conditioning linked to feudal and medieval warfare – primarily for self-defence as far as Hakka communities are concerned. The use of farming implements developed the strength of body and mind to fight-off oppression and tyranny throughout the ages! We develop the strength of the Bear and quiet endurance of the Ox!

Steve Wright - Master of the airwaves!

Peace & Love to Radio DJ Steve Wright [1954-2024]! (15.2.2024)

Perhaps there was an ‘Earlier Steve Wright’ and a ‘Latter Steve Wright’ (just like Wittgenstein) – as I am told he was working for the BBC in the 1980s well before I knew of him (I used to listen to Adrian Juste, Kenny Everett and Radio Moscow under the bedclothes at night) during that time. Whilst engaged in reclusive (academic) studies, Steve Wright would accompany me through a strict study and keep-fit regimen. When not reading and writing – I would be lifting weights and practicing martial arts movements, etc. Steve Wright and his humour would align with the freshness and beauty of Spring and Summer – and lift us out of the inherent misery of Autumn and Winter! Lastly, when the capitalist world was going through an orgy of self-congratulation following the collapse of the USSR in 1991 – Steve Wright continued to point-out (in a humorous and acceptable manner) all the inconsistencies that still lay within the capitalist system. As to whether this was his intention I do not know. As he was earning over £400,000 per year – I suspect not.
