Iran: Reuters Claim “Chinese Domestic Firms Barred from Using US, Israeli Cybersecurity Software Amid ‘Security Concerns'” – But is it True? (15.1.2026)

15/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Initially, I came across this article on Press TV via Telegram – but found that Google is “banning” Iranian media – whilst the US and Israel attempt a violent overthrow of the Iranian government. Instead, I had to open the below article via the Microsoft search-engine. Whether wordpress shadow-bans or ghosts this article is anyone’s guess. I have checked the Mainland Chinese-language “Baidu” search-engine for confirmation of this original “Reuters” article – and could not find any reference. Therefore, I would tread carefully. Reuters, just like all the Western news outlets are controlled by the bourgeois establishment and loyally does its (pro-capitalist) bidding. On the other hand, China, like any country, routinely exercises its right to self-defence – just as Iran is doing now.

The Venezuelan Betrayal of the Bolivarian Revolution and Why it is Over! (13.1.2026)

13/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The hook that Trump is using is that if Venezuela voluntarily betrays its own Revolution – then the US will not inflict the military devastation that hit Panama. Let us not forget that in 1983 – the US military also invaded the British colony of Grenada (killing and wounding around 400 people) – because its indigenous population dared to vote-in a Socialist government. Marxist-Leninists must not live in a dream-world of fictious hope – once again US capital has triumphed over world labour. Delcy Rodrigues (Acting President) is getting ready to hand-over power to the (Catholic) fascist María Corina Machado (who won the Prize on the grounds that she promised to eradicate Socialism, implement US-style capitalism, and hand-over the oil wells to the White House) – and when it happens – it will be presented as the most natural thing that has ever happened.

Brave North Korean Soldier Fighting in Kursk!

DPRK: North Korea Makes an Excellent Support for Russia at the UN & Reveals the Decadence of the US & Neo-Nazi Ukraine! (13.1.2026)

13/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The use of military means by the armed forces of the Russian Federation is an expression of its absolute will not to tolerate threats to its national sovereignty and a just exercise of the right for defending its legitimate rights and interests.

Consistent and invariable is the DPRK’s stand to fully support the just cause of the Russian Federation for defending the national sovereignty, territorial integrity, security and interests.

The international community should heighten vigilance over the West’s sinister attempt to turn black and white, distort the facts and change the victim and perpetrator, and should make responsible efforts to defend genuine international justice, peace and stability.

Recognising Fake News & False Propaganda!

Venezuela: Identifying Fake News & False Propaganda! (13.1.2026)

13/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Trump I (2017-2021) was all about “censoring” expression on social media – left, right, and centre. The alt-right was suppressed alongside the left – with the far-right being encouraged. Trump I even targeted social media platforms with online software attacks irrespective of the owners agreeing – even wordpress came under attack in this manner. Then, when Trump was voted-out and the social media platforms started to “ban” Trump in retaliation – Trump II (2025-2029) is all about “freedom of expression! providing its not left-wing, is pro-America (as in not questioning Trump’s racism or class hatred), and thoroughly racist (pro-White). Either way, the left is completely crushed and dead in the water (although it exists in a disjointed manner on platforms like Telegram). Of course, the legitimate (Maduro) government is broadcasting on Telegram and it is educating its people not to fall for the simplistic online US lies and misdirection. Check with reliable sources and do not accept things at face-value. This also goes for the rest of us as well. Also, beware of the duplicitous Catholic Church.

UN: Members Denounce US Attack on Venezuela! (12.1.2026)

12/01/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

This being the case, why does the UN – and its constituent members – suddenly find it so unpalatable when the US behaves like the rogue Zionist regime it finances? Whilst the US denies free healthcare to its own citizens – the US also finances completely free healthcare for every Israeli citizen (this is also true for South Korea, Taiwan and Japan – key US players in the region). Given that the US has imported Neo-Nazism into Ukraine and fought a proxy-war since 2014 – why shouldn’t Trump act in this lawless manner toward Venezuela? What political or military mechanism is there to stop him? None. Obama destroy a Socialist Libya, installed the Maidan Junta in Kyiv, and began the destruction of Syria. Obama was one of the worst US warmongers – but is fondly remembered for a second-rate health system and free mobile phones. You see my point. Free health, of course, is one of the main principles of any Socialist System, and this fact demonstrates the cynical nature of US foreign policy around the world.

DPRK: Intercepting An Enemy Drone in North Korean Air-Space! (10.1.2026)

According to the analysis result, the drone, which took off in an area of Kanghwa County, Inchon City of the ROK, at around 12:50 on January 4, was set to film the DPRK’s major objects while flying a total distance of 156 km at a height of 100~300 meters at the speed of 50 km an hour for three hours and ten minutes, entering Kaephung District of Kaesong Municipality and the areas of Phyongsan and Kumchon counties of North Hwanghae Province under the DPRK’s territory and then returning to Joksong-myon, Phaju City, Kyonggi Province of the ROK, via Kaephung and Phanmun districts and Jangphung County, Kaesong Municipality.
