Supporting Arrested Journalist “Hiba Abu Taha” [هبة أبوطه] – Please Read Her [Translated] Article Below – “Partners in Genocide – Jordanian Involvement in Gaza!” (11.3.2026)

11/03/2026 Adrian (釋大道)

Jordan is one of the must disgusting examples of tis urn-coating – actually using US-supplied missiles to shoot-down Iranian self-defence missiles as flew over Jordanian air-space on their way to strike Israel. Furthermore, Jordan, in recent years, has actively hindered the Palestinian cause, and openly assisted the US-Israeli genocide in Gaza. As a human-being – I cannot sit back and watch this happening. Just as my two English grandfathers joined-up to fight Hitler in the 1940s – and my Chinese grandfather fought the Imperial Japanese in Hong Kong (during the same era) – I cannot remain silent in the face os such injustices. I hate the fact that the British Army is assisting the Neo-Nazi regime in Ukraine – and that the RAF has been routinely bombing poor and dispossessed Arab and Persian people over the last ten-years – breaks my heart! During the Battle of Britain – the brave RAF suffered thousands upon thousands of casualties defeating the Nazi German Luftwaffe and preventing Hitler’s seaborne invasion of the UK. The UK government even gifted British war aeroplanes to the USSR – and sent British RAF pilots to Moscow during WWII to train Red Airforce Pilots (many of these men later became Marxists on their return). Alexander Werth wrote about this in one of his excellent books. Of course, i have no idea who this young lady (“Hiba Abu Taha” [هبة أبوطه]) is – but I think she is suffering an injustice which I can highlight through this blog. It makes no difference whether this journalist agrees or disagrees with my political views – the point is that I agree with them!

Inner Mongolia: China’s Most Remote Tengger Desert Post Office [沙漠邮局]! (14.4.2025)

“There are some things that a person must experience in the process of growing up, and as people we may have to suffer individual losses, suffer a little here and there, and take a detour – perhaps to better places. When in a state of crying and breaking down, if students could receive a handwritten postcard from the depths of the desert, it would be an expression of warmth and companionship that we can give.”

DPRK: Respected Comrade Kim Jong Un Inspects Service Facilities of Kalma Coastal Tourist Area! (31.12.2024)

Our country has rich and diverse tourist resources to be envied by the world, along with its political stability, institutional advantages and material and economic conditions essential for the development of tourist industry, he said, adding; If the tourist industry is developed by making active use of such favourable conditions and environment, it will open up a new realm of socialist cultural construction and bring about another motive force for promoting regional rejuvenation and national economic growth.

China: Scientists Discover Age of Mid-Latitude Asian Deserts! (30.10.2024)

The research, titled “Spatial heterogeneity in the formation of large deserts in midlatitude Asia revealed by drill core evidence”, was published in the Science Bulletin this month.

“The climatic and environmental effects of dust aerosols significantly impact the global climate, biogeochemical cycles, marine ecosystems and even the global carbon cycle,” Wang said. He added that the research contributes to a better understanding of the long-term environmental changes in the deserts, a crucial source of dust for the Northern Hemisphere.

“Unravelling the history of the desert and its climate impacts will provide insights into how desert systems may respond to future climate changes,” Wang said, adding that the team will continue studying the drill cores to gain further insights into the formation and evolution of these deserts.

China Focus: Foreign Scientists Thank China for Sharing Lunar Exploration Opportunity! (3.6.2024)

The lander of the Chang’e-6 spacecraft also carried an instrument, called Negative Ions on the Lunar Surface (NILS), developed by the ESA/Sweden to the moon, which will be used to detect negative ions and study the interaction between plasma and the lunar surface.

Neil Melville-Kenney, NILS technical officer of the ESA, said the CNSA’s initiative to invite international partners to participate in the Chang’e-6 mission is very much appreciated by the international community.

“It’s a very impressive mission, a very ambitious mission. So we are very pleased to be a part of it. And the collaboration has gone very smoothly. Now we are waiting for the payload to be turned on so that we can get our first data,” he said.

“It’s very important to have international cooperation for space exploration. I think space exploration encourages us to consider our planet as one and our people as one. And it’s important that we work together as we start to explore the solar system more and more. Together we can achieve greater things,” he added.

China Focus: Mars Rover Zhurong Finds Evidence of Water at Red Planet’s Low Latitudes! (1.5.2023)

01/05/2023 Adrian (釋大道)

In the study, researchers estimated the dunes Zhurong found were formed about 400,000 to 1.4 million years ago. The exchange of water vapor between the higher and lower latitudes during this period led to repeated humid environments at low Martian latitudes, followed by the frequent occurrence of salty water when temperatures dropped in the region.

Qin said the discovery provides key proof of liquid water at Martian low latitudes, where surface temperatures are relatively warm and more suitable for life than high latitudes.

It also provides information for the design of future exploration strategies for Mars rovers. As saline water once existed at various latitudes on the surface of Mars, priority should be given to salt-tolerant microbes in future missions searching for extant life on Mars, researchers said in the study.
