Laos Buddhist-Socialist Republic: Celebrating the 58th Anniversary of the Founding of the People’s Political Bureau! (4.5.2023)

The role, duties and performance of the Peacekeeping Political Forces are always linked to the direct, resolute, and comprehensive leadership of the Laos People’s Revolutionary Party, as well as the Party’s Ministries during each phase of the Revolutionary struggle for National Liberation.

Throughout the past 58 years – by following the guidance provided by the Communist Party – a Peace Defense Force has been constructed that has devised a plan to modify the country step by step. This careful process has required the coordinated compliance of the higher political organizations as well as the correct implementation of all political duties assigned by the Party-State and the people, especially the Party-Staff work and the political work carried-out by the Peacekeeping Force. Throughout the past period, the leadership of the General Political Department for Peace Protection during each generation, as well as the entire force of the General Political Department, have raised their respective burdens of responsibilities and stood shoulder to shoulder with other Specialized Military Departments!

DPRK: The Ingenuity of ‘Natural’ Socialism! (8.4.2023)

After a while, the respected Comrade General Secretary said that even if the children are not directly instructed by adults to keep to the right – they will quite naturally step on the outlines (and travel up and down the stairs) keeping to the right-hand side of the stairs entirely by themselves! He said that this was an excellent example of natural education – achieved with only a minimal correct effort regarding planning!

The Nursery Workers’ hearts grew warm with appreciation! As they were only doing their duty for the people – to receive such unexpected praise from the respected General Secretary was completely unexpected and very much welcomed! The next step is always an event in action as the construction of Socialism relies on a continuous outpouring of such ingenius ideas – a processes that NEVER ceases – the General Secretary confirned!

Yelnya: The Soviet Red Army and the First European Defeat Inflicted Upon Nazi Germany During WWII! (18.3.2023) 

‘Nevertheless, the fact that Russia had “allies” – or rather, one major ally, Britain – and that America was going to “help” was of some psychological importance to the Russians, they did not feel entirely alone, and soon after the invasion the thought had become deeply ingrained that the war would be won, no matter how terrible and how long it was. Much was, of course, made of minor military successes, such as the slowing-down of the blitzkrieg at Smolensk (which, curiously, created for several weeks almost a feeling of euphoria, at least in Moscow), and of the small Russian counter-offensive at Yelnya, south of Smolensk in September 1941, when a few hundred square miles were recaptured from the Germans – the first to be recaptured anywhere in Europe since the beginning of the Second World War. At that time, in bombed and half-devastated Vyazna, the future Marshal V. D. Sokolovsky made to the foreign press the significant remark that, fearful as the war was, the Russians were “gradually grinding down” the German war machine, and that in any case Moscow would not be lost.’

Russia: The Enigma of the Asiatic Giant Shigir Idol (Большой Шигирский идол) – Where Ancient Russians Really Seventeen-Feet Tall? (12.3.2023) 

I have heard a number of Slavic academics stating that they believe that some of the patterning on the exterior of the Great Shigir Idol constitutes a written ‘language’. If correct, this finding would constitute the world’s ‘oldest’ written language! I am not adverse to this idea and I believe such a suggestion requires further investigation! Based upon the mythology of the Ugrians, Natalia Chairkina sees in these images a reflection of a vertical model of the universe logically divided into the Upper, Middle and Lower worlds (similar to the ‘trigram’ and ‘hexagram’ of the Chinese book ‘Classic of Change’) – which accommodate seven spheres of empty space. Archaeologist Peter Van Petersen of the National Museum of Denmark has suggested that the idol may have served as a warning at the border of a forbidden territory to scare off invaders or undesirables – or to test the courage of an individual or group. A number of Archaeological experts also note the similarity of design with the monumental stone ruins in Göbekli Tepe in Turkey (which is of a similar age). As many of the marking are both difficult to see and ambiguous in design – it is currently very difficult to produce a definitive interpretation. The best policy is for everyone to ‘look’ at this remarkable structure themselves – and up their own mind. Conventional science has already proven its improbable age! Let’s follow Lenin’s example and sit in our kitchens and ‘think’ great thoughts!
