Russia – and the Soviet Union – gave the World Proletariat hope! When I was a child, I saw a TV programme which featured Lenin stood on an old cart saying that all exploitation, oppression, and injustices were now over!. I was around ten-years old at the time and yet it is a pivotal moment in my life. I think the BBC had put-out a series called the “People’s Century” – regarding the Socialist Revolutions of the 20th century. The BBC now hides this series as being too left-wing – but I will never forget it. Although the Soviet Revolution ultimately failed – and modern Russia is now capitalist – I still have a soft-spot i my heart for all things “Russians”. Russia is dialectically correct to fight Neo-Nazism in Ukraine – a disgusting ideology instilled by the odious Obama Administration! Well-done Russia – there are millions who love you around the world – and over a billuon in China! North Koreans have shed their blood for you. Please help Cuba if you can!

At the closing ceremony, swimmer Jiang Yuyan and track and field athlete Di Dongdong served as flag bearers for the Chinese delegation. The night before, at Paris La Defense Arena, 19-year-old Jiang shattered the world record in the women’s 100-meter backstroke S6 final with a time of 1:19.44, claiming her seventh gold medal at the Paris Paralympics.

“Standing on that podium, watching the flag rise and hearing the (national) anthem play because of my own hard work — it’s a feeling of pride and fulfillment that’s hard to describe,” Jiang said. “I often sing the anthem as loud as I can, I wonder if you can hear me.”

The Chinese delegation reaffirmed its dominance in swimming, athletics, table tennis, fencing and badminton, securing 22 gold medals in swimming and 21 in athletics.

Paralympic pool prodigy Guo Jincheng, who is easily recognizable with his shaved head and no swimming cap, competed in nine events, bringing home four gold and two silver medals.
