Honour the Treaties President Trump!

US: Trump Cuts “Free” & “Subsidised” Healthcare to Native American Indians – Breaking Decades-Old Treaty! (4.6.2025)

The National Indian Health Board said in a letter to Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. last month that tribal communities had lost more than 6 million U.S. dollars in grants from HHS agencies.

The cuts may affect community health workers, vaccination programmes and data modernization efforts, said Janet Alkire, chairperson of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe on the South Dakota and North Dakota border.

“We have not been consulted with meaningfully on any of these actions,” said Liz Malerba of the United South and Eastern Tribes Sovereignty Protection Fund, as tribal leaders argued the cuts violate federal treaty obligations.

Native Americans suffer higher rates of chronic illness and shorter life expectancy than the general population, said the report.

US Weaponry Used Against Gaza Hospitals!

Gaza: Human Rights Watch – Israeli Gaza-Hospital Attacks Constitute “War Crimes”! (27.3.2025)

When Israeli forces withdrew from al-Shifa Hospital in early April 2024, after a deadly two-week siege, the hospital was left in ruins. Healthcare workers and families were left to deal with the aftermath of the violence, with corpses scattered throughout the complex. With cemeteries overwhelmed and the morgues unable to handle the volume of bodies, families were forced to dig temporary graves in the hospital courtyards. Some of the victims were buried in mass graves by Israeli soldiers during their assault on the medical complex.

South Africa - Black Racism

South Africa: Operation Dudula – and the Problem of Tribal Politics Outside the Tribe! (25.3.2025)

In my experience, this is a typical tactic of Trotskyite entryism – which infiltrates working-class groups and politically shifts them toward the right. Furthermore, why are the signs in English and not Zulu? Who is the intended audience? This Black racism feeds into Trump’s assertion that White people in South Africa are victims of Black people. I remember protests in Burma with signs written in English being held upside down – as those holding them cannot read, write or speak English (the West was mass importing fascistic Rohingya Muslims from Bangladesh – in an attempt to water-down the Buddhist support for Socialism within Myanmar – the lie being that local resistance was “genocide”, etc). In this situation, the English is obviously very good – so perhaps Trump is behind it! This Black woman sounds like a White Afrikaner from the 1970s!

Village Doctor - Dedicated to Local Community!

China: Medical Professional Provides Crucial Lifeline to Those Living in Countryside! (10.3.2025)

According to the national census in 2020, the proportion of people aged 60 and above in rural areas was 23.8 percent, nearly 8 percentage points higher than that in urban areas.

Since 2021, China has been focusing on adjusting its poverty alleviation measures to align with the goal of rural vitalization, while also strengthening the provision of basic healthcare in rural areas.

The National Health Commission, along with four other government departments, launched a plan in April last year to nurture college-educated rural doctors, and nearly 7,500 graduates have been hired.

NHS For Sale!

Consequence of Voting Labour: Wes Streeting to Axe Thousands of Jobs at NHS England After Ousting of Chief Executive! (26.2.2025)

Only the rich will receive treatment – whilst the enriched health professionals who allow this – should be arrested and tried for Crimes Against Humanity. Make no mistake about it, whilst NHS staff are imprisoned due to the effect of the cuts – the Labour government is deliberately and systematically destroying what is left of the NHS – at a time when Australia has refused to follow the UK path of subordination to US dictates! Whatever the case, the Western bourgeoisie at the moment, is in total disarray – as the fascist Trump stampedes around the political landscape – sharing metaphorical cigarettes with Kim Jong Un – as they both lean against a wall nervously awaiting the outcome of an important UN vote! China opposed the UN condemning of Russia for its self-defence fight against Neo-Nazi Ukraine – whilst Starmer’s New Labour voted “for”! The UN has never once condemned Israel for its “aggression” in Gaza – regardless of the body-count!

A Young Life is Saved in China!

China: Socialist Medicine Saves Premature Babies the NHS Allows to Die! (13.2.2025)

At 24 weeks, she suffered a large-scale early placental abruption, making it impossible to continue the pregnancy. Obstetricians acted swiftly to assist in the birth of a baby boy, Chaochao (pseudonym).

At birth, Chaochao was unable to breathe on his own. In the neonatal intensive care unit, medical staff adopted a step-by-step downgraded oxygen therapy approach, helping him successfully overcome the critical breathing.

Newborns normally require proper nutrition for growth and development. The nurses successfully performed catheterization on Chaochao’s hair-thin blood vessels.

His feeding was meticulously measured in grams, gradually increasing from 0.5 millilitres to 1 millilitre, then to 2 millilitres. After more than 90 days in the hospital, he reached a weight of 2.2 kilograms and was discharged on Feb. 1 to go home.
