Afghans Mourn for Respected Doctor & Civilians Killed in 2019 US Bombing! (29.8.2023)

“No one has even asked about our condition, and no humanitarian organization helped and assisted us,” said Khan. “The United States has oppressed the whole land of Afghanistan with its plans and programs.”

In 2017 the U.S. military relaxed its rules of engagement for airstrikes in Afghanistan, which resulted in a dramatic increase in civilian casualties, according to a report named Costs of War conducted by the Brown University.

From the last year of the Obama administration (2016) to the last full year of recorded data during the Trump administration (2020), the number of civilians killed by U.S.-led airstrikes in Afghanistan increased by 330 percent, the report noted.

“They (The U.S. forces) killed a two-and-half-year-old girl, a two-year-old girl and another one-and-half-year-old girl. What was the crime of those innocent children?” Khan said.

Football History – I Was There! Pre-Season Friendly: Sutton United Vs Leicester City – Played Tuesday July 16th – 2002 [Kick-Off 7:30 pm]! (14.6.2002)

Eventually, during the 1970s, he founded the ‘Tiverton Town Cricket Club’ (TTCB) – and for a time found fame with the antics and achievements this sporting entity achieved! I was actually researching old newspaper articles featuring ‘Peter Wyles’ who is described as the ‘Captain’, ‘Manager’ and even ‘Groundsman’ between 1975-1980! Like everything, eventually other power-bases (and egos) developed and my father quietly withdrew! This is why today all kinds of people make ‘fake’ claims to having founded ‘Tiverton Town Cricket Club’! As a young child, I used to accompany my father to the Tiverton Cricket Club Home Ground (during all kinds of weather) – situated on the outskirts of Tiverton (near the Rugby Ground) – where he used to cut the grass, ‘roll’ the ground and ‘mark-out’ the pitch! I even have memories of attending one or two ‘Home’ matches – and remember talking to the other team members (including ‘Peter Goldsworthy’ and ‘Pete Townsend’, etc). I also remember that one or two of my father’s friends in the team were attending St Luke’s Sports College (in Exeter) at the time – which meant they were of ‘Professional’ cricketing standard with no one locally realising the situation!

The Bizarre Kidnapping of Amber Aiaz & Melissa Fu! (4.4.2023) 

Zhang Cheng was puzzled at the time, but not long after talking to his wife, (at around 4 pm), a Chinese man and woman in their 40s knocked on the door. As soon as Zhang Cheng opened the door – he was sprayed in the face with a chemical substance and instantly lost consciousness. Zhang Cheng was unconscious for nearly eight hours. When he woke up – he found that Ambar Aiaz’s car and a supply of seafood were in the parking lot of their apartment – whilst her mobile phone and wallet were also in the house – but she and her daughter were nowhere to be found! 

At the same time, Zhang Cheng found someone had left a Chinese language note at home, which conveyed a warning: “We are monitoring you, do not call the police, and you will see your wife and children in a few days.” As a result, Zhang Cheng foolishly did not call the police. It was not until 10 days later, on December 2nd, 2019, that he went to the Police for help. The Police immediately launched an investigation. The first person they suspected was Zhang Cheng. In addition to the fact that he had not called the police in time – Ambar Aiaz’s mother stated that her daughter and Zhang Cheng had many quarrels – and that her daughter – Melissa – didn’t like him either. 

However, in the process of investigating the case, Zhang Cheng cooperated very well throughout the entire process – and also accepted and passed a polygraph test. When the police investigated the apartment where the three lived, they found a small amount of blood and a bloody handprint – but strangely, this handprint was smaller than the palms of all three of the family. After identification, the bloodstain matched Ambar Aiaz’s DNA. After that, the Police launched an investigation which dug up a series of surprising clues.

Everyone Should Study Huey P Newton! (10.3.2023)

On the other hand, I think it is important that I do not deny my ‘Blackness’! I say this regardless of how many might think I ‘look’ – I am ‘Black’ end of story. Many would find the true story of my life surprising. We live in a Bourgeois (White) would of domination, injustice and oppression! Oneday, following a ‘Socialist’ Revolution – this situation will be over-turned and we will hold these ‘Criminals’ (who make our lives a daily misery) to account and ‘try’ them for their crimes! Until that day, correct-thinking (and oppressed) ‘Whites’ – all ‘Blacks’ and every Asian person – must ‘unite’ and gain strength from an unbreakable ‘Solidarity’ that cannot be broken! We must gather our strengths and use this strength positively – and not waste it colluding with the ‘White’ Bourgeoisie – or fighting the ‘White’ Bourgeoisie in an unproductive manner!

Roundup: “Historic” Decline in US Life Expectancy Reveals System Problems, Inequality! (9.8.2022)

The COVID-19 is not solely to blame. Longstanding health problems — rooted in poverty, discrimination and poor access to health care — left Native Americans and Alaska Natives particularly vulnerable to the virus, said Ann Bullock, former director of diabetes treatment and prevention at the federal agency of Indian Health Service.

The non-Hispanic American Indian or Alaska Native population experienced the greatest decline of life expectancy by 1.9 years between 2020 and 2021, according to NCHS report.

The cumulative decline since the pandemic started, more than 6.5 years on average, has brought life expectancy to 65 among Native Americans and Alaska Natives — on par with the figure for all Americans in 1944.

One in seven Native Americans and Alaska Natives has diabetes, the highest rate among racial or ethnic groups in the United States, and many struggle with obesity or excess weight. Both conditions make people more susceptible to severe COVID-19, and crowded multigenerational housing adds to the risk, said The New York Times.
