China: Chang’e-6 Sheds First-Light on Evolution History of Moon’s Dark-Side! (10.7.2025)

In 2024, Chang’e-6 made history by bringing 1,935.3 grams of lunar far-side samples back to Earth. These samples were collected from the South Pole-Aitken (SPA) Basin, the largest, deepest and oldest basin on the moon, which provided a rare opportunity to clarify the compositional differences between the near and far sides and to unravel the long-standing mystery of their asymmetry.

“The SPA Basin is one of the moon’s three major tectonic units, measuring approximately 2,500 kilometers in diameter. The energy from the impact that formed this crater is estimated to be 1 trillion times greater than that of an atomic bomb explosion. Yet, the exact influence of such a massive collision on the moon’s evolution has remained an unsolved mystery,” Wu Fuyuan, an academician of CAS and a leading researcher with the IGG, said at a CAS press conference on Wednesday.

The four papers published in Nature systematically reveal, for the first time, the effects of this colossal impact, which is the core highlight of these findings, said Wu.

York Watergate - 1626 - Victoria Embankment!

UK: Beautiful London – the York Watergate Our Children Have Played Around! (7.7.2025)

The gate was originally the private riverside entrance to York House, a grand 17th-century mansion owned by the Duke of Buckingham. Think of it as a luxurious mooring point at the bottom of the duke’s garden.

York House itself stood on the Strand, which name literally means ‘shore of the river,’ and was considered one of the finest residences in London. At the time, much of the south side of the Strand was lined with palaces boasting direct access to the Thames.

That all changed with the construction of the Thames Embankment between 1864 and 1870, led by visionary engineer Sir Joseph Bazalgette. The massive project reclaimed land from the river and shifted the shoreline dramatically forward.

You can find a memorial honouring Sir Joseph Bazalgette just a couple of minutes away from Embankment Gardens, by the Thames. He designed the Victoria, Albert and Chelsea Embankments, reclaiming a strip of land in front of Somerset House and York Watergate.

The Watergate was almost lost during this transformation – plans were even drawn up to move it to nearby Whitehall Gardens. But in the end, it was simply abandoned where it stood, left behind as a relic of a river that had retreated.

Li Yuefeng, a former national legislator and senior official with the Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League

China: Li Yuefeng – Taiwan Democratic Self-Government League – Sentenced to Life Imprisonment! (5.7.2025)

The court said Li was guilty of bribery and should be severely punished as the amount involved was “extremely large”, causing “extremely great losses” to the country and the people. However, it showed leniency in sentencing because Li voluntarily disclosed bribes unknown to investigators and returned illicit gains, and some bribes were unsuccessful.

Li, born in Chongqing in 1958, began his career in 1976 and joined the league in 2001. Founded in 1947, the league is one of eight non-Communist parties that participate in State affairs under the leadership of the Communist Party of China.

He worked as a lawyer in Chongqing’s procuratorial system for years. In March 2024, authorities placed him under investigation for alleged serious duty-related violations while he was serving as executive vice-chairman of the league and as a member of the Standing Committee of the 14th NPC, China’s top legislative body.

Li was removed from office and expelled from the league late last year. In March, prosecutors indicted him on bribery charges, leading to the trial in April.

Many White Neo-Nazis Love Thai Lady-Boys!

UK: Neo-Nazis, Lady-Boys, and the Genetic Deficiency of the Far-Right! (4.7.2025)

As improbable as it may seem, a number of deficient (White) Englishmen and Scotsmen live in Thailand – and yet are notorious racists who routinely express anti-migrant rhetoric on their social media platforms. By “anti-migrant” – I mean “non-White” migrants living in the UK. The lie is that all crime is committed by non-Whites – whilst the reality is that the in a White-majority country – the majority of the crime is committed by “Whites”. The problem is that the ignorant racists are quite happy to accept the rancid myths of racism instead of carrying-out research into the reality of society (and read “Das Kapital” written by Karl Marx). The far-right racist are quite happy with White migrants who hold Neo-Nazi viewpoints, such as the Poles, Ukrainians, Estonians and Romanians, etc, Neo-Nazis who are welcomed with open-arms even though they represent entirely alien (and unfamiliar) ethnic groups and cultures. These types of British miscreants seem to think that as White people – they possess the inherent right to go anywhere and live in any place – whilst being

Reincarnation within Tibetan Buddhism!

China: Historical Protocol Decided Regarding Reincarnation of Living Buddha! (2.7.2025)

It was not until 1780, when the sixth Panchen travelled to Chengde to offer birthday greetings to the Qianlong Emperor and reported on the matter, that the emperor accepted the appeals from the Panchen and other Tibetan Buddhist leaders to officially recognize Jampel Gyatso as the eighth Dalai Lama. In 1781, when the Qianlong Emperor formally conferred the title of the eighth Dalai Lama, he simultaneously affirmed Kelsang Gyatso as the seventh Dalai Lama and Tsangyang Gyatso as the sixth. This marked a direct clarification and ordering of the Dalai Lama reincarnation lineage from the perspective of the central government, highlighting the central government’s authority in managing the issue of the Dalai Lama’s reincarnation.

The US Attack on Iran was Planned Decades Ago!

Russia: US within Missile Range – Iran Ready to Respond to Trump Aggression! (22.4.2025)

In many ways, articles shot-through with stupidity are the hallmark of a modern Russia that is still coming to terms with its betrayal of its own Socialist Revolution – and the shock that once it had betrayed all its own principles for greed – the capitalist West then made it clear that it viewed the Russians as nothing more than a conquered and discredited foe. Perhaps the Russian authors of this article falsely believe that by aligning Russia with the forces of US anti-intellectualism – America will like them more. The Same America that is still funding and arming a Neo-Nazi Ukraine Trump is claiming is close to a “cease-fire”. All pie in the sky – but if Moscow is not careful in its dealings with Trump – it could be B-2s in the sky over the Kremlin! Remember, both Iran and Russia did some sort of deal with the US when they both betrayed a Socialist Syria. As the bunker-busters dropped on Iran earlier today – and as each new Ukrainian offensive begins in Donbass – let’s hope both of these countries have learned the folly of their ways!
