Two Catholic Nuns Discovered in Embrace!

Brazil: Grave Discovered [in 2008] of Two Catholic Nuns in Loving Embrace! (20.12.2019)

Sergio Monteiro da Silva of the Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology at the University of Sao Paulo, who took part in the excavations, does not believe the nuns were buried together.

“The second nun probably died years later and, during the burial, the first was pushed to the back,” he told the Folha de Sao Paulo.

Mr da Silva said the mummification process had probably happened naturally thanks to good ventilation and low humidity.

“There are no indications that the nuns were mummified,” he told Globo News.

Tests have been done on the bodies and archive research is being carried out to try to identify them. Ms Marino said she hoped the public would be able to view the bodies later this year.

Mr Pol Pot - Hero

KAMPUCHEA: POL POT’S NAME WRITTEN IN THE CHINESE LANGUAGE! (6.6.2019)

Within the Khmer language the name ‘Pol Pot’ is written as ‘ប៉ុល ពត’, with the Chinese language ideograms suggesting the meaning of a ‘Bull-like Individual Who Delivers a Special Message with the Force of a Wave (hitting the shore)’. I intend to carefully research this subject and move through its terrain very carefully, with the idea that this research will encourage others to think for themselves and not accept the rather lazy mainstream narratives at face-value. As usual I reject a priori the bourgeois interpretations as being bias and unreliable, whilst seeking to establish facts from primary Chinese language (and other) sources. There is no need to ‘defend’ this method as it is nothing other than good academic practice.

Multicultural CSA

Respecting the Multicultural Confederate States of America [CSA]! (28.5.2019)

Furthermore, far from being a White racist nightmare, the Confederate States recruited tens of thousands of Native Americans, Chinese and African-American men into the Confederate Army. The history of the CSA is slowly being re-written and this is exactly the same corrective process that the US must apply to the warped historical narratives applied to the USSR and Communism in general. I can’t help but feel that the USSR would have supported the agricultural CSA in its battle against the industrialized North, and in so doing harness and encourage all its progressive forces into forming a Socialist State with all people being equal before the law, and a widespread education and employment programme initiated to facilitate the transition from slavery to free person.  As matters transpired, Jefferson Davis could not be tried for treason simply because every legal team sent to convict him stated that legally he was in the right and that if a trial went ahead, it would be Lincoln who would be revealed as starting an illegal war of aggression that cost the lives of around 800,000 Americans!

Torquay: King’s Gardens – Opened 1904 (Visited 14.4.2019)

King’s Gardens appears to have been the result of slum clearing in Torquay with a place called ‘Rotton Row’ being demolished for new houses (King’s Drive) in 1877. We only hope that the people once living in ‘Rotton Row’ were re-housed and not left homeless (as happens far too often today). Originally called ‘Alexandra Gardens’, it was re-named just after opening in 1904 as ‘King’s Gardens’ after Edward VII. When driving into Torquay on numerous of our visits from London, we have often seen free-roaming swans on a patch of ornate and picturesque landscape to the right of Abbey Grounds (separated by a small road). We finally got round to visiting this area yesterday – despite the howling wind and freezing rain! We did try to ‘walk’ from the house to this area, but the waves were coming over the wall and we had to retreat to the safety of the car and slowly drive through the storm of rain and sea-spray… The children – who are strong-willed and usually wanting to press-on – decided that a tactical retreat to the relative safety of the car was in order!

Gaza - Preparing for Dawn - by Donald MacIntyre

Review: Gaza – Preparing for Dawn – by Donald MacIntyre! (28.3.2025)

If the author had even ‘hinted’ at this, I suspect he would have been arrested for (imagined) anti-Semitism, but historical fact is historical fact and the average Israeli is taught in the classroom to be ‘proud’ of the terrorism his or her fore-fathers wrought upon the British Army (and British Authorities) in Palestine. In a very real sense, a certain (and often privileged) sector of middle-class European Jewry had first ‘migrated’ into a more or less welcoming (Arab) Palestine, only to eventually attempt an armed invasion and conquest very much in the model of European colonialism in the Americas! The Zionist Jews of Israel are not an ethnic minority fighting for its survival and self-determination but are part of the broader European project of colonialism, imperialism, genocide and theft of land and resources. This should not be surprising when it is understood that ‘Zionism’ is a form of White Supremacy developed and practised by affluent and secularising ‘White’ Jews (ironically originally from Germany)! After an extensive investigation, the usually bias United Nations declared in 1975 (following a unanimous vote) that ‘Zionism’ was a form of ‘White Supremacy’ and religiously based ‘racism’.

How US Science Proved the Soviet Theory of the ‘Non-Divine’ Origin of Life [1952]! (4.10.2018)

The complex combination of manifestations and properties characteristic of life must have arisen as a part of the process of the evolution of matter.’ He asserted that basic organic chemicals might have formed into microscopic localized systems, from which primitive living things could have developed at a very early time in the planet’s existence when conditions were very different to today. Highly volatile and dangerous conditions, according to Alexander Oparin, are exactly the conditions within which amino acids could be produced. Amino acids are protein building blocks of all life. Alexander Oparin went on to develop the field industrial biochemistry for the Soviet State, whilst his earlier work was left unfinished. Alexander Oparin speculated that organic life was a product of natural events and had nothing to do with any form of divine intervention.
