Obama and Palestine

These are photos of Obama at a Palestinian community dinner in Chicago seated at a table with Edward Said, Ali Abunimah and Rashid Khalidi. The latter have both attested to his betrayal and how Obama used to always attend events in their community. In 1999, Abunimah introduced him at a fundraiser for a community center in Deheisha refugee camp in the West Bank. Imagine that.

He used to be that comfortable speaking up for and being associated with Palestinians. While teaching at the University of Chicago, Khalidi lived in Hyde Park close to the Obamas. They became close friends and would have dinner together; they even held a fundraiser for Obama.

So how are DSA "pro" Palestine candidates any different from this rat? So far all of them sold out the Palestine cause and became either liberal Zionists or straight up deranged Zionist.

Life well lived

Source (The Specter, via Twitter/X):
The last believed survivor of the “Long March” during the Chinese Civil War celebrated her 105th birthday.

Her name is Wang Quanying, she joined the Red Army as a medic when she was only 14 years old.

Born into a Tibetan family in 1921, Sichuan province, she lost both parents by age one.

From age five, she was forced into harsh labor.

When the Red Army entered her hometown, Wang was attracted by their policy of protecting the poor and joined the Women's Independent Regiment.

The one-year-long march starting in 1934 under the leadership of Mao Zedong is viewed as one of the most daring military manoeuvres in modern history.

The Chinese Communist Party defied all odds, including total defeat, by what is often described as sheer revolutionary willpower.

Starting with about 100,000 people, only around 8,000 survivors eventually made it to their destination in Yan'an.

During battles with the Nationalist forces led by Chiang Kai-shek, Wang Quanying was cut off from her unit and went into hiding in 1936. Authorities verified her as a veteran in 1984.

Kim Jong Un analysis on the current situation of growing nationalism in the imperial core.

Today, the world is witnessing rampant ultra-nationalism of modern version such as 'America First' idea, Zionism, Ukrainian Neo-Nazism and Japanese militarism, international instability reminiscent of the disastrous scene a century ago when the whole world was involved in wars and bloodshed through collusion with one another, and frenzy high-handed and arbitrary practices of a certain country ignoring international laws.

The U.S. indiscriminate and high-handed practices have dangerously impacted on its satellite forces and resulted in further deterioration in the bloody situation in Europe and Middle East..

The steadfast foreign policy stand of our Party and the DPRK government is to firmly adhere to our principle of struggle against the enemy, strengthen the allied front with the anti-imperialist, independent forces and resolutely fight against the imperialists' moves for aggression and war..

Unimaginable astonishing incidents and events beyond the concept and common sense are taking place one after another and wars, bloodshed and political and economic instabilities are becoming a daily occurrence in the world due to the gangster-like and unlimited geopolitical greed and misuse of strength of the hegemonic forces, unprecedented since the Second World War.

As a result, an inter-camp confrontation between the forces for independence or domination is getting fiercer. This is a feature of the extremely acute and variable international situation at present
