Henry VIII: St Alban’s the Martyr Church (Cheam) – Constructed from a Nonsuch Royal Stable! (14.5.2023)

The wood used for the roof (and support beams) dates to about 1550 CE – and was originally a very large royal stable used by King Henry VIII and I am told – his daughter – Queen Elizabeth I! It was dismantled from its original site (adjacent to Nonsuch Palace) by Shipwrights – and brought to what was once a remote area of Cheam – and reassembled (with added contemporary brickwork) to form a very large Church! The wood would have been part of a royal forest cultivated in the area – grown to make ships, buildings and other required ‘royal’ structures! Therefore, the wood itself will be far older than the 1550 CE date the barn is believed to have been originally constructed! The beams are held together entirely by wooden-pegs – just as they were originally designned to be – with no ‘modern’ nails or connecting materials! Indeed, Shipwrights reconstructed this building as if they were building a wooden ship!

US Anti-Intelectualism: Washington’s Rules-Based World Order a Myth! (9.5.2023)

In fact, the U.S. government has a tradition of putting its domestic law above international law and selectively applies international rules as it sees fit. For example, Washington has enacted such domestic laws as the International Emergency Economic Powers Act, the Global Magnitsky Human Rights Accountability Act and the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act to target and sanction specific countries, entities or individuals.

The ambiguous rules contained in these acts and executive orders, such as the “minimum contacts” rule and the “effects doctrine,” are a willful expansion of the jurisdiction of America’s domestic laws.

And for more than six decades, despite dozens of UN General Assembly resolutions, the United States has pressed ahead with its comprehensive blockade against Cuba, the longest and cruelest systemic trade embargo and financial sanctions in modern history, based on its embargo policies and domestic laws such as the Torricelli Act and the Helms-Burton Act. The blockade has led to over 100 billion U.S. dollars of direct losses to Cuba’s economy.

China: The Luling Iron Cross (庐陵铁十字)! (24.4.2023) 

Although there is no physical evidence of a ‘Cross’ as such, there are a number of historical texts pertaining to it. In one such Chinese language text – the object concerned is referred to as the ‘Red Iron Cross Stand’ (赤铁十字架 – Chi Tie Shi Zi Jia) – as this seems to be its proper and original designation. Indeed, a more refined date relating to this unearthed (large) Iron ‘Cross’ is that of the fourth (ruling) ‘Era’ ascribed to the reign of Emperor Sun Wu – namely that of ‘赤乌’ or ‘Chi Wu’ – (238-250 CE). Therefore, the ‘Luling Iron Cross’, or the ‘Red Iron Cross Stand’ is said to have entered China at some point within these emphasised 12-years. It would seem that this ‘Cross’ was placed atop a burial mound at Luling – within which it eventually sank. Around 1,200 years later, for reasons that are not entirely clear, this burial mound was excavated – and this ‘Cross’ was rediscovered.

Palestine: An Example of Israeli Zionist House Clearing! (24.3.2023) 

Zionism is a poisonous form of ‘white’ racism that is taught in the classroom of young children, and which is integrated with Jewish theology by the Israeli State until no difference can be seen (or perceived) between the two. Bob Dylon, for instance, should be condemning Zionism but supporting Judaism (if he must) rather than conflating the two – which makes a mockery of all his anti-war and anti-fascist work in the past. Meanwhile, the UN is waiting to prosecute hundreds of Israeli citizens accused of War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity! This shocking video is just one very small example of how Israel is infected with the disease of (Zionist) ‘fascism’ – after the Jewish people in Europe were a victim of German Nazism!

Email: Mr Huu Can Tran – Innocent Until Proven Guilty! (23.1.2023)

OK – so this is a Chinese-language comment left on one of the articles concerning Mr Huu Can Tran (innocent until proven guilty) which reads:

‘一个人走过海旁，看见另一个人想跳海自杀。 他走上前去劝说「先生，不要跳下去！」 那人问道：「为什么？」 他说：「生命是美好的嘛！你是无神论者还是有宗教信仰？」 那人答：「我有宗教信仰。」 「佛教、道教、回教还是基督教？」 「基督教」 「罗马天主教还是新教？」 「新教」 「我也是新教呢！圣公会还是浸信会？」 「浸信会」 「太好啦！我也是浸信会，你是Baptist Church of God还是Baptist Church of the Lord? 」 「Baptist Church of God. 」 「真是太奇妙啦！我也是，那你是原教旨的Baptist Church of God还是改革派的？ 「改革派的」 「1879年的改革派还是1915年的？」 「1915年的改革派。」 那人朝他屁股一脚把他伸进海里：「异端！去死吧！」’
