Eire: Last Known Battle of Britain pilot – Irishman John Hemingway – Dies Aged 105! (18.3.2025)

Mr Hemingway was one of 36 Irish pilots who fought in the Battle of Britain, including Wing Commander Brendan ‘Paddy’ Finucane, who was one of the RAF’s most successful fighter aces in the war, and Victor Beamish, a scion of the brewing industry. Both were killed in the war.

In 2019, Mr Hemingway gave an interview to The Irish Times on the occasion of his 100th birthday. He told military historian Joseph Quinn: “I can’t say don’t drink. I can’t say don’t fool about with people. I can’t say don’t fly aeroplanes. I can’t say don’t shoot and get shot at – I’ve done everything, and I’m an Irishman. The only advice I can give to people is be Irish!”

Mr Hemingway’s wife Bridget died in 1998. They had three children.

He lived with daughter in Canada for many years before returning to Ireland in 2011. Mr Hemingway spent his last years in the Trinity Care Foxrock Nursing Home.

Richard Baxell and the “Bourgeois” Revisionism of the International Brigades Memorial Trust (UK)! (19.8.2023)

To this end, Richard Baxell is NO different to David Irving – although the former still awaits a trial for ‘Proletariat Holocaust Denial’! Alas, this trial will only happen when the working-class seizes the means of production – then we can hold all these ‘liars’ accountable for the false propaganda they have been spreading the decades! Getting some of our history correct – whilst deliberately falsifying other aspects will NOT be a viable defence! People like Baxell (and organisations like the IBMT) are guilty of denying the ‘Working-Class Holocaust’! Once we realised that the IBA was a ‘White’, bourgeois establishment catering toward ahistorical revisionism and fascistic apology – we left pretty smartish! The Chinese members of my family were made to feel uncomfortable with the manner they were ‘starred’ at when we turned-up for commemorations. Imagine that – one of the greatest anti-fascist (working-class) movements in British history being infiltrated by the very racist attitudes the British heroes of the past were fighting to put a stop to!

Spain (1936) – Historical Origins of the Term ‘Fifth Column’! (6.6.2023)

Contrary to the dreams of the far-right – it would appear that the term “Fifth Column” first appeared in a “Communist” (Spanish) newspaper during late 1936. The implication seems to evolve around Catholic duplicity and the Vatican’s open support for the fascist movement! As Catholics were everywhere – and were guided by their Catholic Priests – there was a perpetual threat to the democratically elected “Socialist” government “from within” or from “behind”! Just as the Catholic Church is guiding (and encouraging) far-right activists (Neo-Nazis) to travel from around the world to join the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) today – it also carried out exactly the same “recruiting” roll during the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939)! Anyone interested in this duplicitous history can access the work of Joseph McCabe. I have relied entirely upon Russian language sources for the following article as they are far more objective.

Why ‘Fascism’ is Favoured by the Roman Catholic Church! (20.3.2023) 

Although a Socialist society fully empowers an individual to develop their thinking in a ‘free’ and ‘empowering’ environment – the Catholic Church complains that exactly the same ‘Socialist’ society is ‘oppressing’ religion because the Catholic Church is not permitted to harvest wealth from the people, steal land from the people, or artificially usurp political power from the people! In other words, although the freedoms earned by the people within a Socialist society conform in many ways to the ‘Private’ version of the Catholic Canon Law – exactly the same ‘freedoms’ contradict and violate the ‘Public’ version of the Catholic Canon Law! It is for this Catholic inconstancy of theological view (and temporal greed for political power) that the Catholic Church supported Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany (whilst being on very good terms with the Imperial Japanese) – and provided thousands of ‘Chaplains’ to accompany the ‘Catholic’ troops that were part of the Nazi German-led invasion of the USSR during 1941! These ‘Catholic’ troops were comprised of many hundreds of thousands of men and were spread across numerous participating nations including Hungary, Spain, Germany and Italy, etc! The Catholic Church supported this fascist invasion knowing full well that its purpose was ‘genocide’. The Nazi Germans (and their ‘Catholic’ allies) murdered around 41 nillion Soviet men, women and children, and after the war, the Vatican assisted thousands of Nazi War Criminals to escape Allied Justice! Such was (and remains) the power of the Public Canon Law of the Roman Catholic Church.

Joseph McCabe: The Anatomy of an Anti-Soviet ‘Lie’! (18.3.2023) 

The point being here, that for all his evilness – Adolf Hitler (who really did ‘kill’ verified millions) – is far more acceptable to the Bourgeoisie once his ‘National Socialist’ regime has been militarily defeated (ironically by the ‘Socialists’), and its threat to the dominance of the world ‘capitalism’ firmly removed! In Russia and China no one believes that their greatest leaders killed millions of people – as there are no bodies, no graves and no grieving masses. The Bourgeoisie, realising the practical weakness in their argument, decided that in Cambodia (Kampuchea) a new approach was needed – and the remains of the tens of thousands of innocent Cambodians killed in the illegal blanket-bombing (and military invasions) of that that country carried-out by the US during the Vietnam War – were simply ‘piled-up’ for tourists to gawk at – and see just how ‘evil’ Socialism can be!
