Lisbon Maru (1942): In Praise of the Chinese Fishermen of Dongji! The People of Britain Thank You! (29.8.2022)

The remaining 936 British POWs were transported to Japan on the ‘Shinsei Maru’. By the time this ship reached the port of Moji in Kyushu – a further five British POWs had died. Of the original number of 1,816 British POWs that had boarded the ‘Lisbon Maru’ on September 27th, 1942, by the time they eventually arrived in Japan (around October 8th, 1942), only 931 British POWs remained! (What happened to the five seriously wounded British POWs left in Shanghai I do not know). This entire episode means that through a combination of a US ‘War Crime’ and continued Imperial Japanese ‘War Crimes’, in a matter of just eleven days in 1942, these two countries conspired to murder 885 British POWs! The number would have been much higher if not for the selfless actions of the Chinese fishermen (and their families) who came from Dongji Island!

Three Scientists Win China’s 2022 Future Science Prize! (22.8.2022)

Between 1911-1949 – the corrupt ‘Nationalist’ government (which had experimented with fascism and rapid and sudden ‘Westernisation’ without a popular mandate) not only attacked and destroyed the famous pinnacle of ‘Chinese’ identity’ – the Shaolin Temple in Henan – but failed miserably to relieve poverty and achieve any significant change for the ordinary peasant population! Genuine Socialism (as defined by Marx, Lenin and Mao Zedong) is driven only by scientific progress – because it is only through the rigours of science that ALL problems existing within (material) human society can be a) ‘understood’ and b) ‘solved’ by a science firmly controlled by the working-class and unshackled from the incessant search for profit exhibited by the predatory capitalist system! Surely, Vladimir Mayakovsky and his ‘Communist Futurism’ movement would be proud of Communist China and the new generation of scientists its universal education system has produced!

Zionist Military Aggression (1942-1982) – Forty-Years of Terrorism Disguised as Self-Defence!  

The so-called Six Day War that broke-out on June 5, 1967 – was a massive land-grab exercise perfectly planned and executed by the Zionist Authorities of Israeli! In typical (and deceptive) Zionist style, this mass invasion of Arab territory has been presented as an ‘act of self-defence – falsely implying that the Arabs are responsible for their own plight and deserve everything that Israel has perpetuated against them! In reality, this shocking exercise in neo-imperialism saw the military defeat of Egypt, Syria and Jordan. This defeat led to the Israelis occupying East Jerusalem, the West Bank of the Jordan River, the Gaza Strip and the Golan Heights and only served to tighten the Zionist noose that was already around the necks of the Palestinians! On June 8, 1967, the Israeli Airforce deliberately attacked the USS Liberty – a lightly armed US Naval ship that was sailing in international waters north of the Sinai Peninsula. This planned Israeli attack upon a US Naval ship killed 34 US Naval Personnel and wounded another 171! The Israeli method of trying to provoke the US to get involved in a conflict the Zionists themselves had started failed yet again.
