Interestingly, the plastic model mimics the metal kits that used to arrive in the factories in Stalingrad to be constructed by the workers – which included Disabled people. Tank crews would often train on wooden models and wait by the factory doors for each new tank to appear. These brave men and women would then drive directly to the frontline to confront the Nazi Germans. We will paint these models and add scenery and Soviet Red Army soldiers.
Now millions throughout the island will add their hands to the giant stroke, each with their signatures, holding young and expert hearts, bearers of dreams and diverse commitments, but signing with common ink: homeland and flag.
It will be a giant book, written by as many hands as the children of this land want to live in peace, without imperial blockades, hegemonic threats or military aggressions that would only leave eternal voids in the families of both nations.
These signatures will gradually fatten the muscles of a long and thin island that more than once has shown signs of defending its ideas at any price, like the moral giant that it is in the year of the centenary of its historic leader, Commander in Chief Fidel Castro.
Iran, despite the sanctions preventing it from trading, building-up wealth, and importing resources, developed its missile and drone forces over many decades. Iran is now using-up all these supplies whilst the US is destroying the infrastructure of Iran – that very same infrastructure which built the missiles in the first place – no infrastructure – no missiles. On the face of it, these US losses are only significant from the perspective of the US (and Israel) rarely losing their expensive warplanes during the asymmetric wars they start. The only exception I can recall is the events of 1973, which involved the USSR secretly providing the Palestinians with sophisticated surface-to-air missiles. These Soviet missiles destroyed the Israeli Airforce in around 20 minutes during the Yom Kippur War. The problem was that a United Arab Army lost to the Israelis on the battlefield.
Meanwhile, the Collective West, that bastion of moral guidance, has ignored the illegal (terroristic) attack on Iran by the US and Israel – and instead has blamed Iran for ‘bringing the problem upon itself’ by a) existing and b) insisting upon exercising self-determination – thus compounding the situation. President Putin is fighting a war on two fronts. The first is against Neo-Nazi Ukraine – whilst the second is internally preventing Russia from sliding back into Soviet Socialism. North Korea is battling with the contradiction that its soldiers have died fighting for a capitalist Russia in Kursk (how does this fit in with Juche) – whilst the Communist Party of China is grappling with the paradox of how building capitalist market forces reconciles with constructing a new society premised upon the auspices of Scientific Socialism.
Iran’s Parliament Speaker Mohammad Bagher Ghalibaf urged global audiences to read three UN reports on Zionist war crimes, stating that awareness is a vital part of resistance and key to understanding why Iran fights for humanity.
And why exactly are NATO countries up here giving us sanctimonious speeches about human rights while turning a blind eye to the Zionist genocide in Gaza? Who do they think they are to stand here and talk about justice?
We will not allow nations to silence us when, for them, human rights are nothing but a bargaining chip and a foreign policy weapon. We have no intention of listening to people who use human rights as a tool of war — while their own hands are stained with the blood of Palestinians and Iranians, something they somehow keep conveniently forgetting.
And we will not rest until every country here is treated by the same standard. Until hypocrisy is dragged into the light and disgraced. Until genocide is confronted. And until peace reigns not just in words, but in reality.
