We, the media office of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – Lebanon Branch, are working to provide media work that clarifies our political vision that sets its compass towards Palestine – and Palestine only – and our media work is in the service of our Palestinian cause. In analysing the events, we start from the political and intellectual vision of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine – which has no goal other than the higher interests of the Palestinian people.
The African traditions are said to cultivate and favour the use of ‘wisdom’ – and when I was young – I used to hear older Chinese people talk about possible historical and cultural links between ancient Africa and ancient China! This is a concept I have never heard emanating from the White (Bourgeois) Establishment! The reason is that the reality of the African ‘wisdom’ tradition’ is not recognised by the White Europeans as being ‘true’ or ‘factual’. What kind of people would allow themselves to be enslaved – or so the Western thinking goes! It does not occur to these people that a superior and more civilised people are more easily exploited by a less civilised people! Surely, when you watch the above video – you will be seeing a ‘wise’ African man dispensing his ‘healing’ wisdom!
Overseas military operations have caused humanitarian catastrophes. On Dec. 20, 2022, non-profit U.S. media outlet Common Dreams pointed out in an article titled “Warren, Jacobs Accuse Pentagon of Vastly Undercounting Civilians Killed by US Military” that according to data from the UK-based monitor group Airwars, U.S. airstrikes alone have killed as many as 48,000 civilians in nearly 100,000 bombings in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Pakistan, Somalia, Syria, and Yemen since 2001. According to data released by the Costs of War project at Brown University, since the 21st century, the U.S. government undertook what it labeled “counterterrorism” activities in 85 countries, directly killing at least 929,000 people and displacing 38 million people. And the U.S. military operations around the world have violated freedom and human rights of people in the United States and other countries. A woman and two children were killed in U.S. drone strikes in the Al-Hadba area of Al-Wadi, Yemen, on Nov. 30, 2022. “… the violence that characterizes the modern United States at home and in its conduct overseas — from the prevalence of gun — related deaths to the controversies over preemptive military action and drone strikes.”
The crisis has been dragging on for over a year. The prospects of a protracted and expanding conflict are deeply worrying. Since day one, China has been emphasizing that dialogue and negotiation are the only feasible way to resolve the crisis, he said.
The international community should stay on the right course of promoting peace talks and supporting Russia and Ukraine in resuming dialogue without any precondition as soon as possible, so as to achieve de-escalation and help the parties swiftly open the door to a political settlement and jointly maintain peace in Europe, he said.
Not long ago, China issued a paper on its position on the political settlement of the Ukraine crisis that contains 12 propositions. Building on that, China is ready to continue playing a constructive role in pushing for a political solution to the Ukraine crisis, he said.
If the American Civil War (1861-1865) resulted in the victory of the ‘non-racist’ North over the ‘racist’ South – then what went wrong? The US (White) Establishment teaches children in the US Education System that ALL racism throughout North America suddenly ENDED when the Confederacy ‘Signed’ an ‘Unconditional Surrender’ during early 1865! Children are encouraged to dress-up as Abraham Lincoln and perpetuate ‘myths’ that ALL non-White people where a) ‘treated well’ from 1492 onward, and b) were ‘treated even better’ after 1865! The problem with this ‘myth’ is that predatory capitalism exists all-over the US – and therefore generates the material (external) conditions that manifest ‘racist’ socio-economic pressures equally throughout the geographical space that the US inhabits! These ‘racist’ external pressures are ‘internalised’ within the mind and body of its victims and therefore influences the behaviour of these individuals. The further problem is that ‘Bourgeois’ academia may well prove this reality time and time again – but stops short of confirming that ‘racism’ is caused by ‘predatory capitalism’ – as clarified by the work of Marx and Engels – and other geniuses such as Huey Newton!
It is surprising how many people in the UK think that there might have been a miscarriage of justice in this instance – but as you can see – there is nothing ‘funny’ about the noise the ‘Stylophone’ makes! In its day it was seen as the ipad of the 1970s! Many have described its outpourings as similar to sounds made by a cat ‘trapped’ in a tumble-dryer! Weirdly, I seem to remember Rolf Harris travelling to Court whilst riding in a boat on the Thames! Later, after his release from custody, he was then spotted by the tabloid press walking his dog – at least that they think he was doing with it!
