CSA: When Confederate General James Thadeus Holtzclaw Complimented a “Black “ Union Regiment! (10.11.2025)

10/11/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

General Holzclaw Stated, “Five separate colour-bearers, one after the other, seized the fallen flag and attempted to plant it over our works. Each one was shot-down. Urged on by their White Officers – these Black soldiers repeatedly surged against the breastworks. They came only to die!” Indeed, so impressed by the bravery of these Black soldiers was General Holzclaw, that he cited their bravery in his official “Battle Report”. This would be read by the likes of Robert E Lee and Jefferson Davis – so such a report contained much significance. Although the Union would win this battle overall – it did not prevail on this small part of the Nashville battlefield. Of course, such stubborn Confederate action only delayed the inevitable defeat – but it did give the Black Regiments (there others that fought during this battle and even around this area) a chance to show the world what they were capable of doing. The Irish-British (Confederate) General Patrick Clayburne 9who had died at the Battle of Franklin) had suggested to Jefferson Davis that the slaves of the South should be “freed” and co-opted into the Confederate Army – but his idea fell on deaf-ears.

Kremlin: President Putin Describes the Russian Military-Industrial Complex! (25.4.2025)

25/04/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

President Putin received an advanced education within the Soviet System – learning the Marxist-Leninist ideology (even the watered-down post-1956 Khrushchev variant) – and joined the elite units of the NKVD (KGB) – that important State organ that evolved out of Lenin’s “Cheka” – or “Revolutionary Police”. The NKVD was staffed with all those ordinary Soviet men and women who possessed unusual understanding and intellect (from a Proletariat perspective). This State organ saved the people time and time again from external and internal attack (between 1945-1947 the NKVD suffered heavy casualties combatting the unsurrendered Nazi German Officers and their “SS” Catholic Ukrainian fascists held-up in the forests of West Ukraine) – but failed in 1991 to prevent the ideology of predatory capitalism infiltrating the Soviet space. There was a brief but bloody fight in 1993 outside the Russian Parliament (as the “new” politicians voted to abolish what was left of the Socialist infrastructure) – with the Russian State murdering around 10,000 Russian citizens (carrying Red Flags) – the first capitalist massacre of modern Russian fully supported by the West and met by silence from the UN – and that bourgeois mouthpiece known as “Amnesty International” (the latter fully supporting Neo-Nazi Ukraine).

Cuba: Soviet Sacrifice at Stalingrad Remembered! (3.2.2025)

03/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

Soviet troops not only completely surrounded and annihilated the German Sixth Army, but also demonstrated to the world that the Nazi military machine was not invincible. The precisely planned Operation Uranus struck at the enemy’s most vulnerable flanks and allowed more than 300,000 Wehrmacht soldiers to be encircled. No strategy of Hitler’s could save them.

The echo of Stalingrad resonated far beyond the battlefield. It inspired the peoples of Europe in their fight against fascism and pushed the Western Allies to intensify the opening of the second front. The ruined city, defended street by street, echelon by echelon, became a symbol of the indomitable will of the Soviet people.

CSA: Piles of Thread-Bare Confederates at Antietam [Sharpsburg] – Notes on Their Sacrifice! (31.1.2025)

02/02/2025 Adrian (釋大道)

The Union Army paid the farmer $1 per dead Confederate body and the farmer made $60 out of the deal. He dug a new well in a different place for the cost of $2 – making a wartime profit of $58. No one knows the names of these Confederate soldiers – and if it was not for a report being made by the Union soldiers concerned – no one would know about these men today. Of course, there was great bravery on both sides – but the spin placed on the war by the winners has skewed how the Confederacy is viewed today. These Confederate men (and boys) advanced into the Union fire with the utmost discipline and determination. They believed 100% in their cause – which was for the freedom of their individual countries (termed “States”). At the time, this war was not only about slavery – but has been made ONLY about slavery since 1865. Many believed the federalisation of the United States was a betrayal of the 1776 War of Independence – and nothing short of a great evil!

WWII: Strange Tale of the Imperial Japanese “Type 89” Knee-Mortar! (10.11.2024)

10/11/2024 Adrian (釋大道)

I have seen Chinese (KMT) soldiers (and a mixture of US soldiers) photographed holding this weapon placed on their upper-thigh – but never any Soviet Red Army soldiers. This would imply this story originates in the US Army and was shared by its Chinese (KMT) Allies (now ensconced in Taiwan). The justifying explanation is that due to a “grammatical” error in the original Japanese language User Manual – it is suggested that the Type 89 Mortar should be fired from the upper-leg. Why would this be case? Who could “read” this manual? I doubt the average American or Soviet soldier could read Japanese text. Sometimes, and depending upon the type of Japanese text used, a Chinese person might be able to read some of the instructions, but even then this would be haphazard and unreliable. After-all, who bothers to read the text when there are clear instructional pictures available? As you can see from the above pictures, the Imperial Japanese soldier is shown clearly using the Type 89 Mortar whilst it is placed firmly upon the ground! Therefore, this story is either a racist myth – a product of misunderstanding – or perhaps an element of both.
