UK: I Once Ran a Half-Marathon over 1 Hr 40 Mins [13.25 Miles] in Hereford During the 1980s – and Neither of My Legs Were Broken! (8.8.2026)

I was born in Oxford (Hitler bombed my mother’s family out of working-class Lewisham in 1940) – and I love the history and “learning” associated with the place (I can walk around with a book about Marx on open display and no one bats an eyelid). I did attend Oxford – but I paid to do so – as I could not attain a place due to my own limitations when I was young. It just so happened that my intellectual abilities matured at the same time when I experienced a decade of wealth. Although Oxford does discriminate, I “paid” to access a “Philosophy of Mind” course – which I passed despite not fitting-in (I was in my late 30s at the time and was surrounded by BBC executives, Guardian Reporters, and UN employees – but my family was proud). However, I was told a story of a young woman who was born into a poor working-class family and brought-up on a housing estate.

Mahayana Buddha is Trans Gender

BMA-UK: The Buddha – Gender Fluid or Gender Irrelevant? (6.8.2026)

Of course, even in Shakespeare’s time in England – men dressed as women because women were not permitted to act on the stage. The Vinaya Discipline seeks to completely “cut-off” all sexual activity in the environment, body, and mind. This includes heterosexual, homosexual, and beastiality. This is what a Buddhist monastic is expected to follow – whilst a lay-person may get married and have children – providing there is an element of sexual control. This often comes down to use in the West as “No Adultery” – but in the old Pali Suttas, it is explained in a slightly different manner. In the time of the Buddha, a rich lay-man could marry up to four wives – and as it was the Hindu custom for a man to marry sisters – the Buddha advised that “control” in this instance was not to engage in sexual activity with anyone outside his wife’s family. Replacing this with “Adultery” is a clear example of how the bourgeois (Christian) West has tinkered with Asian Buddhism – and attempted to alter its essential nature. Adultery in the monogamous (modern) West is not the same as adultery in polygamous (ancient) India.

There's Nothing Suspicious About the Syrian Social Nationalist Party Flag!

PFLP: Meeting with the Syrian Social Nationalist Party in Sidon! (7.8.2026)

Perhaps the most damning piece of evidence is the “flag” – as it is clearly a modified Nazi German Swastika. Remember, Hitler was popular (and still is) amongst a certain strand of Muslim – who support his anti-Semitism. Indeed, the first military action taken together as allies between the UK and the USSR in 1941 – was to invade a pro-Hitler Iran. After 1991, the US encouraged in Russia a “National Bolshevik” movement – which falsely assumed that there was no difference between these two ideologies (both assumed to be far-right). The flag has the background of the Nazi equivalent – with a hammer and sickle placed in the white circle – replacing the swastika. The US flooded the post-Soviet space with far-right rhetoric and extremist religious movements between 1991-2001 as a means to break-up Socialist thinking and ideology. It was only the political rise of Putin that put a stop to this.

North Devon District Hospital bosses said temporarily suspending its birthing services was the "only safe course of action"

UK: North Devon NHS Leads the Way in “Closing-Down” [Socialist] Health-Service! (7.8.2026)

I have written elsewhere about how a close friend of mine used to work for the Audit Commission in 2009 – and how she had to attend a meeting with New Labour Ministers (I believe then under Gordon Brown). New (right-wing) Labour was dedicated to abolishing the NHS and Welfare State – everything the 1948 Soviet-influenced Labour government had brought-in. This was the Tory-dream of Tony Blair – who admired Maraget Thatcher (I know – you couldn’t make this up – but it is all true). We knew from 1997 onwards that New Labour was reactionary – but until my friend attended this governmental meeting – I had no idea to the extent. Needless to say, she returned home looking in a state of shock. She told me that the US – via the EU – had instructed the UK that ALL Socialist entities had to a) be privatised, and b) sold into the profitable control of the US. Bear in-mind that ALL the political parties in the UK (so it did not matter who you voted for) had to follow this US directive as the US maintained a direct control of the Bank of England (as it does all EU banks). This ensures that all European countries (including the UK – even though as “Celts” we are not strictly speaking “part of Europe”) do as they are told when the Americans demand it. Doubt this? Look at how everything now costs five-times as much as the US pets of Neo-Nazi Ukraine and Zionist Israel demand your money to pursue their far-right objectives. (Around 1990-1991, I was wandering around the campus of Loughborough University – North of London – when I encountered US [NATO] soldiers in uniform. They “pushed” me out of the way whilst laughing – and went about their disrespectful way).

China: What the West’s “Assimilation Accusations” Reveal About its Own Historical Burdens! (6.8.2026)

This policy was pursued by forcibly removing children from their families and placing them in foster homes, adoptive families, and correctional institutions through the “Kinder der Landstrasse” (Children of the Open Road) Project. Much of this barbarism was premised on the very “Eugenics” thinking that inspired Adolf Hitler – with Swiss policies before, during, and after WWII “mirroring” those of Nazi Germany. The “Yenish”, of course, are also referred to as “Gypsies” in other countries (they comprise one tribe of Romani people living in Switzerland). Even after WWII, the Swiss government continued to forcibly “Sterilise” Gypsy women of ALL tribes living in Switzerland – with the intention of “ethnically cleansing” this group from Swiss territory. During WWII, the Swiss government actively deported its own Gypsy population to Nazi German Concentration Camps – where they were exterminated en masse. Therefore, “Fan Yichou” – the Associate Professor at the Law School of Minzu University of China (quoted at length in the below article) – needs to carrying-out further research if he mistakenly thinks “Switzerland” offers a viable option to State-building in the West. Yes – there is a type of “Pluralism” in effect as seen in the “Canton” model operating in Switzerland, but this is achieved through a strict separation of the “races”. Throughout much of its contemporary history, Switzerland accrued wealth at the expense of other ethnic groups being displaced or exterminated, and sought to maintain its “Pluralist” racial purity by removing the ability of certain groups from reproducing. This situation might demonstrate how difficult it can be to shine a light into a different culture and interpret what is going on correctly. Switzerland, of course, provides the “Swiss Guard” for the Vatican. If that does not set alarm bells ringing – nothing will!

PRC Applies Sanctions Against Racist US Entities!

China: Counter-Measures [Sanctions] Announced Against Six US Entities! (6.8.2026)

These countermeasures, which took effect on Wednesday, were adopted in response to the United States’ sanctions against Chinese companies under the pretext of so-called “forced labour,” according to the ministry.

The U.S. move seriously violates international law and the basic norms of international relations, and gravely undermines China’s sovereignty, security and development interests, the ministry said.

The six U.S. entities subject to the countermeasures are Applied DNA Sciences, Inc., Stratum Reservoir, LLC., Altana Technologies, Inc., Responsible Business Alliance, Verite Group, Inc., and Human Rights in China. They assisted and supported the United States’ unlawful Xinjiang-related sanctions, the ministry said in a statement.
