Russia Resists US Tyranny!

Russia: Voting Begins to Pick Next President! (16.3.2024)

The overseeing mission of the Commonwealth of Independent States made up of 194 people will observe Russia’s presidential election, the mission’s head Ilkhom Nematov said.

The election came as Moscow’s special military operation in Ukraine enters its third year.

“I support Putin and, of course, I will vote for him,” Lyudmila Petrova, 46, who was shopping for sneakers at one of Russia’s largest wholesale markets in southern Moscow, said.

“Putin raised Russia up from its knees. And Russia will defeat the West and Ukraine. You cannot defeat Russia — ever. Have you in the West gone completely mad? What is Ukraine to do with you?”

UK: Tories Suffer Massive Losses in Local Council Elections – But Does it Matter? (6.5.2023)

British Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said that his party’s losses were disappointing, but he did not believe there had been a massive movement towards the Labour Party.

Labour leader Keir Starmer said his party was on course to win a majority at the next general election.

Professor John Curtice, a polling expert, said that based on the current results Labour should be the leader in next year’s parliamentary election. However, it is uncertain whether they will win an outright majority, he said.

Under Britain’s electoral rules, a general election must be called before the end of 2024.

Professor John Bryson, a political expert from the University of Birmingham, told Xinhua that local elections should not necessarily be seen as indicative of voter behavior in a future general election.

No political party in the country currently has a viable strategy to underpin sustainable growth and address the structural fiscal deficit that Britain has been experiencing for “far too long”, Bryson said.

China Issues Report on U.S. Human Rights Violations in 2022! (28.3.2023)

Overseas military operations have caused humanitarian catastrophes. On Dec. 20, 2022, non-profit U.S. media outlet Common Dreams pointed out in an article titled “Warren, Jacobs Accuse Pentagon of Vastly Undercounting Civilians Killed by US Military” that according to data from the UK-based monitor group Airwars, U.S. airstrikes alone have killed as many as 48,000 civilians in nearly 100,000 bombings in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen since 2001. According to data released by the Costs of War project at Brown University, since the 21st century, the U.S. government undertook what it labeled “counterterrorism” activities in 85 countries, directly killing at least 929,000 people and displacing 38 million people. And the U.S. military operations around the world have violated freedom and human rights of people in the United States and other countries. A woman and two children were killed in U.S. drone strikes in the Al-Hadba area of Al-Wadi, Yemen, on Nov. 30, 2022. “… the violence that characterizes the modern United States at home and in its conduct overseas — from the prevalence of gun — related deaths to the controversies over preemptive military action and drone strikes.”

The War on Truth! (11.11.2022)

Only the political rightwing in the US would be stupid enough to refer to its own political support as being a ‘Red Wave’! A genuine Red Wave would involve a massive movement of the empowered Workers who have thrown off the shackles of capitalist oppression and the false consciousness that keeps it artificially in place!

Palestine: Israeli Voting Population Continues Down ‘Fascist’ Path! (7.11.2022)

Sadeq Al-Shafi’ee, a political analyst from the West Bank city of Ramallah, expected the new Israeli government to “use the most extreme degree of excessive violence to deal with the Palestinians trying to confront occupation.”

“The Israeli voters’ choice of the right is evidence of rejecting any peace agreement with the Palestinians, or negotiation over the establishment of a Palestinian national entity on any part,” he explained.

Abdulmajid Sweilem, a Ramallah-based political analyst, suggested the Palestinians “get rid of the signed agreements,” because “the next Israeli government is not only a non-partner but hostile to peace.”

“What the elections in Israel resulted in is an opportunity for Fatah Movement led by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and (Gaza’s ruling movement) Hamas to rise up against reality, end their internal division and make real unity to confront the coming future,” Sweilem said.
