Torbay: Graven Images Are Appearing & Our Funeral Card for My Dad! (4.6.2026)

04/06/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

As an older man myself, I am unperturbed by the passing of my father. This inner state of non-friction is a product of two distinct influences on my life – my father’s attitude to material reality (always be fearless and move forward when under fire) – and Buddhist meditation (remove greed, hatred, and delusion from within – and do not create the conditions that manifests these taints externally). It is a multifaceted approach to conflict resolution in the world. Yes – I have seen my father’s now deceased body – and it is a body that is no longer functioning. He is no longer in physical pain. Indeed, natural processes have removed his presence from the physical world – just as they brought him into it a little over 84-years ago. This does not absolve those around him who contributed to his suffering – as they shall be forever damned – but such an attitude demonstrates that externally deriving ignorance will crush or divert our way of viewing the world. We will not bend or bow-down to tyranny.

UN: Report Accuses Israeli Forces of Rape and Sexual Abuse Against Palestinian Detainees! (4.6.2026)

04/06/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The report stated that rape and gang rape, in some cases repeatedly, affected nine victims, most of them from Gaza.

It attributed responsibility for the violations to members of the Israeli army and security services, including the Israeli military, the Israel Prison Service and special police units.

According to the report, abuses mainly occurred during detention and interrogation at several locations, including the Sde Teiman military camp and Etzion detention center, as well as prisons including Megiddo, Ofer, Ramla, Hasharon, Shatta, Nafha and Damon, as well as the Gush Etzion police station.

The report also documented abuses committed at military checkpoints and during Israeli military incursions in the occupied Palestinian territory, noting that journalists and human rights defenders were among the victims.

It said most cases involved multiple forms of sexual violence simultaneously, while some abuses were photographed or recorded on video, including one rape case.

DPRK: “Dagger in Heart of Asia” Remark – Intensive Manifestation of US Hegemonism and Cold War Mentality! (3.6.2026)

03/06/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The U.S., which had expressed its plan to reorganize the U.S. forces in the ROK into the “strategic task force” and “regional expeditionary force” since 2004, reached an agreement with the ROK on “strategic flexibility” of the U.S. forces in the ROK in January 2006, and in the 2010 Defense Department report, it clarified for the first time that the U.S. forces in the ROK could be dispatched to other regions according to the principle of “strategic flexibility”.

Recently, it more openly advocated the “modernization of the U.S.-ROK alliance” talking about “bolstering up conventional deterrent against all threats in the region” and “ensuring peace and security in the Taiwan Strait” at the 57th U.S.-ROK annual security consultative meeting in November last year. And in the National Security Strategy Report in December that year, it stressed the need for the regional allies including the ROK to increase the defence expenditure with the main emphasis on strengthening the capabilities needed for containing hostile countries and protecting the “first island chain”.

Zionists Murder Gazans During "Ceasefire"!

Human Rights Watch: Israel Prevented Aid – and Deliberately Killed 856 Civilians During “Ceasefire” in Gaza! (24.5.2026)

24/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Human Rights Watch explained that the Board of Peace, authorized under UN Security Council Resolution 2803, is tasked with assessing parties’ compliance with the Comprehensive Plan to End the Gaza Conflict. It stressed that rapidly expanding and safeguarding aid is central to the plan, alongside restoring essential civilian infrastructure. The organization added that aid volumes remain far below required levels and critical humanitarian access routes have been repeatedly obstructed, according to the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA).

USSR: Mao Zedong Celebrates Joseph Stalin’s Official [1949] 70th Birthday! (21.5.2026)

21/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

The 1878 Register of Infant Births kept in the Orthodox Episcopal Church of Gori City (Georgia) states (on page 33): “On December 6th, Gori resident and peasant Vissarion Ivanovich Dzhugashvili and his legal wife Ekaterina Gebrienovna gave birth to a son, Joseph”. This reference is taken as Stalin’s “actual” or “material” birthdate by many historians – although the former Catholic monk – Joseph McCabe – runs with the official date (explained below) which I find curious as he might well have had contacts who could have accessed the Church Records in Georgia. One reason might be that the politicised “Church” was viewed as acting hand-in-glove with the bourgeois (or “feudal” State in the Russian context) and therefore part of the problem that must be overthrown (that is, shifted from “public” to “private”). In this sense, who cares what the Church records? As the Secular State is primary (as the vehicle through which “Socialism” is achieved that leads to “Communism” and the dissolving of the State) – it should decide material reality and its manifestation.

Africa: AU & UN Leaders Denounce External Interferences in Africa’s Security Crisis! (15.5.2026)

15/05/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Youssouf said the interferences are requiring the AU, UN and other partners to deploy more efforts to contain the crises. “The AU must lead any peace negotiations on the continent, based on the principle of African solutions to African conflicts.”

Guterres, for his part, said it is absolutely intolerable that countries that are external to Africa interfere in African conflicts, providing weapons and political support with the objective of serving their strategic or economic interests.

“We need naturally to go on developing our common diplomacy, to make sure that we create the conditions for this kind of interference to cease and for other actors to be able to come to political agreements, able to end these conflicts,” he said.

According to Guterres, the world is witnessing a new kind of war where the military does not fight each other but launches drones against civilians.

“We also raise our voices, denouncing those countries that are providing drones that are not manufactured in Africa, as they are causing terrible sacrifice for the African people,” he added.
