JG Ballard's Masterpiece!

How Steven Spielberg Altered JG Ballard’s ‘Empire of the Sun’! (22.2.2024)

I agree, the film is stunning, moving and dialectically thrilling – but did Spielberg work his Zionist magic? After watching the Blu-ray of Empire of the Sun a number of times and re-reading JG Ballard’s beautiful novel – I have yet again detected Spielberg fiddling with the perception of the world – using his usual method of precise omission. Jim declares that he has become an ‘atheist’ – but Spielberg censors-out the fact that he is also thinking of joining the Communist Party. Chiang Kai-Shek made a habit of beheading any caught Communist guerrillas – placing their heads on spikes in the centre of Shanghai for all to see. Jim had become impressed with the Communist Unions that agitated for the rights of workers employed by ‘White’ Europeans (such as his father) – and the battle waged by Mao Zedong and his forces living in the hills (a famous Chinese actress had resigned from her lavish profession in the Movies and the cinemas – and had joined Mao Zedong’s Communist guerrillas) – all omitted by Spielberg.

Kim Jong Un Chillin With His Homies!

DPRK: Comrade Kim Jong Un Test-Fires [Surface-to-Sea Missile] Padasuri-6! (20.2.2024)

Recalling the fact that the ROK puppets let various kinds of battleships intrude into the waters of the DPRK to seriously encroach upon its sovereignty under the pretext of control of fishing boats and ships of a third country and maritime patrol while making desperate efforts to preserve the “northern limit line”, a ghost one without any ground in the light of international law or legal justification, he stressed the need for the DPRK to thoroughly defend the maritime sovereignty by force of arms and actions, not by any rhetoric, statement and public notice.

US Zionists Vote to Continue Killing!

UN: US “Veto’s” Gaza Cease-Fire – Grants Israel “Licence to Kill”! (20.2.2024)

Russian Ambassador Vassily Nebenzia said today addressing the UN Security Council that Washington continues to provide Israel with “a license to kill”.

He said: “Algeria organized discussions in good faith to produce its draft resolution, but the US in effect issued an ultimatum, asserting that the draft was dangerous as it would obstruct ongoing talks.

“Indeed, Washington continues to insist the Council not interfere in the US plans, he said. The US has vetoed similar draft resolutions in the past, he added.

Trans Workers are Workers!

Emails: Empowering “Trans” from the Left! (20.2.2024)

But here’s the thing – the trans movement is knocking down this fabricated house of cards and in that respect is Revolutionary. It is Revolutionary because these constructs are Bourgeois and are used to cement capitalist society in place. Reaction left and right complicates this matter. The problem is that trans ideology inevitably hits the harsh reality of biological function – a reality that attracts the greatest reaction. Of course, science can and does (to a certain degree) address this issue in a manner that was not possible during the lifetime of Marx and Engels – although there is a strong argument that both advocated the complete destruction of Bourgeois norms and values – and I would agree. Trans is not new – it just seems new due to its widespread emergence and toleration within Bourgeois society. 

Zionism is NOT Acceptable Fascism!

IJAN: Anti-Zionism is Anti-Fascism – Jews Stand With John Avalos! (20.2.2024)

Last week, the Jewish Community Relations Council (JCRC) of San Francisco initiated an intimidation campaign against John Avalos, former member of the SF Board of Supervisors and current director of San Francisco’s leading affordable housing coalition, the Council of Community Housing Organizations. JCRC’s immediate goal is to punish Avalos for speaking out about Israel’s genocide in Gaza. But more broadly, this is part of their larger effort to stifle all critique of Israel by mischaracterizing it as antisemitic. JCRC has a long-history of such campaigns, usually targeting people of color-led social justice organizations that take a stand in support of Palestinian rights.

George Galloway Mirrors Islamic Bigotry!

New Statesman: George Galloway’s Converstion to Islam! – Guardian: George Galloway’s Denial! (18.2.2024)

George Galloway, MP for Bradford West, is a Muslim. He converted more than ten years ago in a ceremony at a hotel in Kilburn, north-west London, attended by members of the Muslim Association of Great Britain. Those close to him know this. The rest of the world, including his Muslim constituents, does not.  

Over a halal, alcohol-free lunch at a cafe on Bradford’s main high street, Khan tells Galloway: “I know someone who attended your shahadah [the Muslim conversion ceremony].”  

He stares at me across the table, penetrating blue eyes squinted, pausing for the first time in an hour. His special adviser, a glossy-haired Asian Pakistani called Ayesha, looks into her daal while his new bride, Gayatri Pertiwi – a Dutch-born Muslim of Indonesian descent 30 years his junior, seated beside him throughout the interview – smiles at me.
