How the Imperial War Museum Relegated the “Black Experience” of WWII to a Back Corridor! (26.10.2023)

When we entered a back corridor – slightly disheartened by the shallowness of the IWM coverage of WWII from an ordinary British and Chinese perspective – we were astonished to find that a ‘Black’ British art exhibition – regarding WWII – had been consigned to an ‘out of the way’ place! The corridor is both bare and bleak – the sort of place one (momentarily) traverses through to get to another place – or perhaps rest for a moment to get one’s bearings. In no civilised way should this location be interpreted as ‘suitable’ for an art exhibition – as it reeks with Eurocentric disdain! Such is the contemporary IWM and the disjointed face it shows to a general public it intends to fleece in its gift shops!

Palestine: Battle of the “Al-Aqsa Flood” Captures Far More Zionists Than Reported! (8.10.2023)

The Hebrew Channel 12 reported that the death-toll from the operations carried out by the Resistance from the Gaza Strip towards the Occupied areas since the morning hours amounted to at least 300 dead and more than a thousand wounded, hundreds of them in mortal danger!

Since the morning of Saturday, October 7th, 2023, Palestinian Resistance Fighters have been waging a fierce house-by-house street battle in the “Gaza Envelope” of illegal Zionist Settlements – after successfully crossing the Security Fence!

The Palestinian Resistance is destroying these illegal Zionist Settlements within the Occupied Palestinian Interior – assisted by hundreds of missiles that have successfully struck Jerusalem, Tel Aviv, and the Occupied Negev regions! Such is the excellent Battle of the “Al-Aqsa Flood!”

Palestine: Uprising of the Oppressed Stuns Zionist War Machine! (8.10.2023)

GAZA, Oct. 7 (Xinhua) — The death toll from Israeli airstrikes in Gaza has risen to 232, with 1,697 others injured, according to an update from the Palestinian Health Ministry in Gaza on Saturday.

The airstrikes were carried out in response to an earlier rocket attack by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas).

The Israeli military confirmed that Palestinian militants had launched almost 3,000 rockets against Israel, and dozens of militants had infiltrated southern Israel.

Hamas, the militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, claimed to have captured a number of Israeli officers and soldiers, adding that they are being held in “safe places.”

Palestine: Prisoner Movement Announces Militant Counter-Measures Opposing Zionist Prison Authority Campaign Against Palestinian Prisoners!

The Supreme National Committee for the Prisoner Movement accused the Zionist Occupation of trying to ‘morally and physically assassinate’ the Palestinian prisoners issue. The statement was released in response to attempts to sow discord by creating stories of prisoners having relationships with Zionist female prison guards. This, as per the statement, was aimed at damaging the prisoners’ image. The statement denounced a few Palestinian and Arab media outlets that promoted this narrative. It also announced the commencement of measures starting with the closure of all departments in prisons to counter these attempts.

Alexander Werth – USSR [1942]: Moscow-Front – Examples of Soviet & Nazi Propaganda Leaflets! (19.9.2023)

As a consequence, the US continuously stocks the far-rght and keeps its embers burning from one generation to the next! This is why the work of Alexander Werth is difficult to find nowadays. This British Journalist could read, write and speak Russian, and was privileged in the USSR between 1941-1945 – being taken to the front-lines to see for himself what was happening. Furthermore, he was allowed completely free movement without NKVD supervision. His eye-witness information is an inconvenient contradiction to all the racist lies perpetuated by the US government and its pathetic lackeys! I include below two (2) anti-Soviet – and one (1) anti-Hitlerite – propaganda leaflets (compiled by the Nazi Germans and Soviets) which Werth acquired on the Soviet (Moscow) front-lines. The anti-Soviet leaflets are aimed at the average (ordinary) Red Army soldier and talk of ‘capitalist’ England and America being the greatest threat to world peace! The anti-Hitlerite leaflet informs the average Nazi German soldier that his leaders are hypocritical capitalists ‘pretending’ to be ‘Socialists’!

China: Who is Covering-Up the Unit 731 War Crimes of Japan? (4.9.2023)

“What Japan waged during WWII was an aggressive war, and Unit 731’s deeds were the most horrifying. But Japan has never truly reflected on this, which has resulted in a vague understanding of this history and even influenced local governments,” said Kubota.

“This is the fundamental reason behind the Iida City Board of Education’s refusal to display Unit 731 panels!” he said.

A survey conducted by Japanese newspaper Asahi Shimbun revealed that only 30 percent of the 85 WWII-related museums across Japan have long-term exhibits regarding the nation’s history of aggression. None of them has exhibits dedicated to Unit 731.

“Cover it up, then forget it without realizing it… The nation’s attitude of making true history vanish is fully evident in the acts of the Iida City Board of Education,” said Kubota, expressing profound sorrow amid the Japanese government’s attempts to conceal the truth of its wartime aggression.

“We must not let the true history disappear,” said the gray-haired man, leaning on his cane.
