World Stands in Solidarity with Cuba!

Cuba: Illegal US Embargo Causes Record Economic Losses of Over $8bln! (8.9.2026)

Severely limit the raw materials available – such as that used to produce food, medicine, and energy – and the available resources will soon dry-up. Add this to internal betrayal – those living inside the targetted regimes – and attacks emerge from outside and within. Venezuela is a prime example. I believe the current leader did a deal with Trump and new in advance about the murder of the 32 Cuban bodyguards and Maduro’s kidnap. Her first act was to re-establish diplomatic links with Israel and give Israel oil (I believe “free”) to continue its genocide against Gaza. This was the oil originally given (free) to Cuba. You see the issues. Meanwhile, the far-right candidate that Trump gave the Nobel Peace Prize to (what a piece of shit entity that so-called “Prize” is) – “disappeared” from public view because of this deal (she literally was not required). The hand-over of Venezuela was stage-managed to Cuba’s detriment. How long can Cuba hold-out? The so-called “Socialists” in Venezuela stopped issuing pro-Cuba statements as soon as Maduro was out the country. Today, there is only silence from the new (Trotskyite) regime. I suspect the US will launch a military strike against Cuba and annex the island. Show Trials will then begin – together with intense false propaganda offensives about “how evil” Socialism is! The US-controlled UN will pursue a plan of “doing nothing” and strategically “condemning” as and when it suits them.

Buddhapadipa Temple - Wimbledon

Wimbledon: Buddhapadipa Temple & the Family of Geese! (29.5.2024)

It possesses a modest park with a small body of water, a mansion house and a temple complex. Indeed, we have visited here many times in the past. As with all such temples – it is free to enter – and no-one interferes with acts of private meditation. On occasion, the robed-clad monks (Bhikkhu-Beggar) might be seen walking through the grounds. As all animal cruelty is strictly forbidden, the local wildlife tends to behave in a much more relaxed and content manner – as if each animals perceives the “Dhamma” (Teaching) that is being practiced. Whatever the case, such an environment allows children to develop a caring attitude of respect for all animals – just one of the reasons we take our children to such places!
