Israeli prison authorities responsible for attempted killing of Palestinian detainee Ghassan Zawahra!

Palestine: Israeli Prison Authorities Responsible for Attempted Killing of Palestinian Detainee Ghassan Zawahra! (8.7.2026)

It emphasized that what has been reported from Zuwahra’s testimony represents only a portion of what he endured, as it only includes what was permitted to be made public. The testimony contains other extremely harsh and shocking details, confirming that the prison guards deliberately attempted to kill him by firing rubber-coated bullets at him directly and repeatedly after he was transferred to Nafha Prison.

The PPS noted that Zuwahra was recently transferred back to Ganot Prison, and that he is a former prisoner who has spent a total of 17 years in Israeli prisons, seven of which were under actual sentences, while the remainder were spent in administrative detention. He was re-detained by the Israeli occupation forces in February 2025 and placed under administrative detention.

Zuwahra is the brother of the slain Palestinian Mu’taz Zuwahra, while another brother, Mohammad Zawahra, has also previously been detained. He is married and a father of four, and lost his father on the second day of his most recent detention.

Leicestershire Police's Operation Pedalfast is being rolled out across the county

UK: Police Seize Over 800 “Illegal” E-Scooters in Blow to Green Propaganda! (8.7.2026)

Things were changing then – but we recently visited Leicester and was astonished at the state of the place. With the current Labour Junta criminalising certain descriptive language – I can neither confirm or deny that two previous domestic houses that exist on the corner of Barclay Street and Narborough Road (and used to house our neighbours) now form a “house of worship”. Indeed, our experience, arriving as we did on a Friday, was so negative that I was advised NOT to blog about it in the current climate. We were, at the time, staying in the Duddington area carrying-out genealogical research, and decided to add a day-trip to Leicester – a place that I knew vaguely (I remember my grandad who fought at Normandy) and is where my Dad grew-up. I wanted to show Gee and my two children a small part of my past – but my goodness – I can say that we will never be going back there. And certainly not with two dogs in the back of the car. As Marx famously said – “a spectre is haunting the land” – but perhaps not the one he was envisioning. Still, if you visit monochrome King’s Cliff with its obvious bias toward one ethnicity – then Leicester offers the exact opposite. A sort of yin and yang. Needless to say, Leicester has many problems, illicit e-scooters may not be the most pressing.

Thank You Belgium!

US: FIFA Corruption & Trump Delusion Mean Nothing – Belgium 4-1 US! (7.7.2026)

As for the rest of us – we all play one another until a select few is ready to compete for the greatest trophy in the universe! England invented football and England is the spiritual home of football – be it professional or amateur. Hundreds of thousands of British people play every week on bumpy and irregular pitches using different size footballs and various interpretation of the rules. Nobody is paid for this playing – the people play for the love of the game. This is called Non-League Football – even though there are hundreds of wondrous divisions. What it means is that this is non-professional leagues – as the playing is not for money. At this level there are a number of trophies culminating in the FA Vase. My Dad played for Leicester City Reserves and was scouted for Nottingham Forest in the late 1950’s early 1960s – he was that good. I was good in defence and as a goalie as I played 11 aside and 5 aside at school and college, etc.

First Offense - Yang Youlin (杨有林) was sentenced to death!

China: Yang Youlin [杨有林] – “Sentenced to Death” [First Offense] – for “Capitalist Greed”! (7.7.2026)

Joseph Stalin abolished the Death Penalty throughout the USSR in 1948. Khrushchev, being a tyrannical Trotskyite, copied the US practice of putting to death its own civil population for crimes, and although exempting political crimes, permitted the Soviet Courts to inflict the Death Sentence on any civilian for any capital crime (c. 1959). Cuba also executed its political enemies (often on film) – but so did the US and its numerous proxies (see South Korea and Vietnam – but also Liberia – and of course ISIS and Al Qaeda, etc). Israel murders directly in accordance with Biblical scripture – so no one’s hands are clean. Interestingly, China is attempting to move away from the “Death Penalty” with the “Suspended Death Penalty” – but that did not apply in this case, due to the amount of money involved and the scope of the corruption. Yang Youlin caused tremendous suffering to the ordinary Chinese people under the guise of the authority of the CPC – and so he must pay the highest price for this betrayal. Where in the West capitalist greed is encouraged and rewarded – this is not so in China.

China - Cuba Friendship - Socialist Solidarity!

China: US Urged to End Blockade of Cuba! (7.7.2026)

Mao made the remarks at a new briefing when asked to comment on the speeches of Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel, who warned that the U.S. blockade of Cuba has reached a “critical level” and constitutes a genocide threat, and he has called for a special session of the UN General Assembly on July 7 to address the issue.

The spokesperson noted that the comprehensive blockade and illegal sanctions imposed by the U.S. on Cuba for over 60 years are disastrous for the Cuban people.

Recently, the U.S. has further escalated these blockade and sanctions measures, which have severely undermined the basic livelihoods of the Cuban people and drawn great concern from the international community, Mao said.

China firmly supports Cuba in safeguarding its national sovereignty and opposes external interference and stands ready to work with the international community to uphold international fairness and justice, the spokesperson concluded.

Indigenous Mexican Revolutionaries - circa 1910

UK: Thanking Mexico & England for One of the Greatest Games of Football! (6.7.2026)

We should never lose to the likes of the USA – or Norway – for that matter. I still cannot comprehend how France became a footballing nation – yes – I am that old. I think my recently deceased father is sat somewhere laughing with glee at this wonderful England performance. I keep odd hours and was up by 2am to see the delayed kick-off. It was a match of the ages – a match to end all matches! Until now, one of the best technical matches I have ever seen is the 1970 game between England (the defending world champions) and Brazil (the next world champions) – which England lost 0-1! This mornings match might well rival that match simply because England won! We might as well have won the World Cup – so brilliant was the performance. The Referee was against us – and we were fighting a hostile crowd – all things that professional players are expected to deal with and overcome!
