Even in the UK the Bank of England is subordinate to the US banking system (and cannot operate independent from it) – whilst US military bases strewn the land (there are parts of the UK where US military personnel walk around society in uniform). This de facto US influence is everywhere and it has been established and justified through the fear of a “false” enemy (such as the USSR, modern Russia, and various other States – such as Cuba and Iran). Europe, via its banking system and military, does whatever the US indicates, effectively following American foreign policy without question. Trump is giving an open expression to what is already happening regarding US reach and influence. The issue is that of progressing this “de facto” influence toward a “de jure” reality. Trump is expressing what the US is really doing and the hypocrisy of the bourgeois West is kicking-in. People like to “think” they are “free” from US influence onthe surface – whilst remaining completely subordinated to Washington behind-the-scenes. It seems to be bad form to point this out in the open.

My Revolutionary Clobber!

Cuba: My Study of Che Guevara’s Work! (27.2.2026)

Oddly, Audible, despite hosting some fairly right-wing and far-right tomes – to its credit – it also hosts Marx, Engels, Lenin, Mao Zedong, Ho Chi Minh, and Che Guevara (amongst others). Yes – some are bourgeois aberrations – but others are straight from the original ideological source material and convey clear Socialist and Communist thinking. So far – so good. Recently, whilst carrying-out my academic work of translating ancient Chinese texts into English – I play audio-books in the background – so I can continue to “learn” whilst working. This is how, over the last three-months, I made an effort to study the Cuban Revolutionary experience. This came about after I had a conversation (a few years ago) with a Spanish man now living in Sutton – who surprised me when he said he had no interest in China or the USSR – but rather the Central and South American experience. This got me thinking – as I used to generally integrate all these movements – assuming they were different aspects of the 1917 Russian Revolution (which of course they are). The point is that different ethno-centric experiences abound – even if we are political allies all heading in the same ideological direction.

ICE Targets Foreign Iguanas!

US: Florida ICE Targets “Foreign” Iguanas! (8.2.2026)

Green iguanas were imported from Central and South America as pets beginning in the 1960s and 1970s. Some were intentionally released when their owners could not handle their large size, while others escaped captivity. Florida’s warm, subtropical climate allows iguanas to reproduce quickly, with females laying multiple clutches of eggs per year. Today, their population is estimated at hundreds of thousands to over a million, primarily in South and Central Florida.

Colombia: Ancient Checua DNA Reveals “New Group of Humans” With No Genetic Ties to People Today! (4.1.2026)

Scientists have found genetic evidence of an ancient group of people in Colombia with no modern-day descendants. It’s as if they simply vanished from the face of the Earth. What’s more, they’re also not closely related to the ancient Native American populations that scientists had thought would be their ancestors.

“This is unexpected,” Andre Luiz Campelo dos Santos, an archaeologist from Florida Atlantic University who did not participate in the research, tells Adithi Ramakrishnan at the Associated Press. “Up to this point, we didn’t believe there was any other lineage that would appear in South America.”

An international team of researchers described the discovery in a study published in late May in the journal Science Advances. They analyzed DNA from the bones and teeth of 21 individuals found at five archaeological sites in the Altiplano—the high plains around Bogotá—dating to between 500 and 6,000 years ago. The analyses represent Colombia’s first ancient human genomes ever to be published.

China Supports Latin America!

China: Latin America & Caribbean Policy – Full Paper! (11.12.2025)

China has realized its First Centenary Goal of building a moderately prosperous society in all respects, and is striving to build a great country and advance national rejuvenation on all fronts through Chinese modernization. China remains firm in pursuing an independent foreign policy of peace, and is dedicated to the common values of humanity. It is implementing the Global Development Initiative (GDI), Global Security Initiative (GSI), Global Civilization Initiative (GCI) and Global Governance Initiative (GGI), and deepening high-quality Belt and Road cooperation. It advocates an equal and orderly multipolar world and a universally beneficial and inclusive economic globalization, and promotes the building of a community with a shared future for humanity.

As If Argentina Has No Connection with Nazism!

UK: Agentina “Finds” Nazi German Documents in Basement of Supreme Court! (16.5.2025)

Catholic priests were then told to direct all devout Catholic men to travel to the war zones and join fascist military formations – hundreds of Irishmen headed to Spain, Italy and Germany. The Catholic Church fully supported the fascist invasion of the USSR and was silent about the Holocaust. Meanwhile, thousands of Catholic men travelled from Central and South America to fight for Hitler during WWII. After WWII, the Vatican gave refuge to thousands of Nazi War Criminals in Vatican City – before slowly filtering these criminals to “safe” Catholic countries in the Americas – including Argentina. Churchill granted the Pope’s request and resettled 10,000 Ukrainian SS men in Scotland. The laughable BBC is counting on no one in its audience knowing these facts, and is perpetuating the falsehood that Argentina is some kind of “victim” of Nazi tyranny. No – Catholic Argentina was a well-known safe-spot for Nazi Germans seeking refuge from justice.
