Exceptionally Rare 

     A woman in her twenties in Israel has made a full recovery after surgeons removed her entire sternum and sections of several ribs to extract an exceptionally rare tumor - one described in only 20 some cases worldwide. 

     Our friend in Israel, formerly of Pittsburgh, sent this article to us.     

     To rebuild her chest, surgeons designed and implanted a fully customized 3D-printed chest cage made from PEKK, a high-performance carbon fiber polymer used in the aerospace industry. It's the first procedure of its kind performed in Israel. 

     The implant was designed specifically for her anatomy, mimicking the strength and flexibility of natural bone while allowing surrounding tissue to gradually integrate with it over time.

     "Rare cases require creative solutions," said Dr. Yury Peysakhovich, head of thoracic surgery at Beilinson Hospital. 

     "The patient was discharged after several days and is recovering well. Israeli medicine, once again pushing the boundaries of what's possible," said a spokesperson for the hospital. 

                                  This story stands alone. 

  

Final Marxist Realities 

     Tenth, Marxists never learn from history and thus are doomed to repeat it, even after the carnage that has been generated by their dystopian policies for more than a century. Dystopian: When people lead demonized and often fearful lives.   

     Someone once noted that doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results is the definition of insanity. That's the Marxist playbook in a nutshell.

     Eleventh, Marxists glorify vices and demonize traditional virtues even while they carry out virtue signaling. They condescendingly lecture us about upholding democracy and liberty while they attempt to erode economic freedom, educational freedom, and individual freedom. Condescend: A feeling of patronizing superiority. 

     Finally, Marxism is highly immature. Marxists rarely learn from the past and thus triple down on failure. They blame others for their own fascist behavior, which is an example of denial and projection. Fascist: Political philosophy, movement that exalts a nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government led by dictatorial, right wing, authoritarian, oppressive, domineering groups. 

     They demand to get what other folks have earned, which is childish and immoral. Marxists side with totalitarian entities and mob rule while opposing the sole Middle East democracy, Israel. Marxists only embrace law enforcement when it protects unlawful immigrants and themselves, and when it is used to punish law-abiding folks. This is why it is imperative to vigorously oppose Marxism by all means necessary.

Marxists' False Promises

  Part 3 of 4

     Seventh, Marxists promise freedom and security to those who join their cause, yet wealth is stolen from others. Security exists only for those at the top of the pyramid. In other words, everyone is equally miserable under Marxism except for the jackbooted leaders who profit from the spoils acquired from their legalized theft. Jackbooted: military boot, ruthlessly and violently oppressive. 

     For proof, examine the misery index of folks in China, Cuba, Iran, North Korea and Russia. 

     Eighth, it's puzzling why Marxists who reside in free societies lack the courage to move to the autocratic societies they admire. Autocratic: Ruling with unlimited authority. Is it because they don't even believe the mantras they keep repeating, or do they want to have their cake and eat it, too? Mantras: Sacred counsel or formula. 

     They denounce the blessings of free enterprise and liberty at the same time as they partake of them. Unfortunately, they have taken their blessings for granted. Do they really want to transform the United States into a dysfunctional nation that has constant shortages of goods and services." 

     Ninth, Marxism promotes the darker facets of human nature rather than its nobler strivings. Facets: subjects. Marxists turn lies into the truth and truth into lies. They oppose the arts, constructive creativity and innovation, and constantly push monolithic groupthink instead of critical thinking. Monolithic: a massive single unit. In other words, Marxism is extremely boring and lacks a sense of humor.

Marxist Socialism

  Continuing where we left off with realities...

     Fourth, Marxists compete with one another to see who's the best liar as they deceive the vulnerable who might believe promises that are too good to be true. Marxists use deception as a means to control the masses and keep them on their heels. 

     They talk a good game about socialism as a paradise on earth yet do everything they can to turn that alleged nirvana into a hell on earth.  

     Fifth, Marxism is the arbitrary system built on a foundation of contradictions. Arbitrary: Depending on individual discretion not law. Not restrained in exercise of power. 

     It can hand out some goodies but just as easily withdraw them.  Marxists believe they can alter laws whenever they feel the urge, thus using raw power to confuse and divide people and consolidate power in the hands of a few. Arbitrary laws can hinder people from advancing economically and can also create insecurity. 

     Sixth, for an ideology that claims that it will usher in equality, Marxism certainly is fixated on economic class, color, gender and race. Apparently, some are more equal than others. Instead of equal opportunity, Marxists favor the equity of prearranged outcomes. Equity: Justice according to natural law. 

     Many Marxist spokespeople are educated academics who pretend victimhood and fear competition in the real world...yet believe they are smarter than everyone else. They have learned nothing about good citizenship and wisdom, while displaying a commonsense deficit. Marxists envy folks who keep their noses to the grindstone and lash out at those who possess discipline, deferred gratification and a healthy work ethic.

12 Realities of Marxist Socialism 

    by Christian Milord

     "First, Marxism was founded on the concept of atheism (disbelief in God). It attempts to dismantle the Judeo-Christian faith that has been an anchor of civilization for thousands of years and helps people to navigate life's challenges. 

     "Marxists also oppose the traditional family, the building block of any culture. In every life category, intact families are far more successful than broken families.

     "Second, Marxist policies encourage folks to be intellectually and physically lazy as they rely on bureaucratic government for all their needs. This reliance generates an entitlement mentality that expects others to supply the needs of those who refuse to accept personal responsibility. 

     "Minimal effort is applied to studying and working, yet the 'entitled' expect to earn high salaries regardless of the effort they put forth.

     "Third, Marxists are quite generous with money confiscated from job creators, but they are stingy with their own money. However, most of the money and possessions seized by Marxist leaders end up with their cronies and are not redistributed to the lower income workers they claim to be helping. The hypocrisy is staggering."

Realities of Marxist Socialism 

     Not today, but we have for Monday viewpoints by Christian Milord, an educator, mentor and writer in California. 

     What's up? Milord this week updated his commentary of 2025, regarding collectivism, communism, progressivism and socialism. We found his "viewpoint" in THE EPOCH TIMES, which we read daily. 

     Commentary 

     "In a free society that embraces free markets and the rule of law, young people must be made aware of the 'fuzzy and warm' nature of Marxist iterations." 

     Milord uses some words that required us to dust off our dictionary. Iterations mean repeating to get a desired result. 

     His 12 Glaring Realities of Marxist Socialism is so compelling we just have to share it with you who haven't already read it. We want our families and friends to live the American dream, don't we? Even though it isn't perfect. No one is perfect. You noticed how many socialists, progressives etc. won Democratic primaries. 

     The Democratic Party is now communist, or close to it, like Cuba. We don't know what normal Democrats might do. But we can't pin our hopes this year or next...or whenever...on politicians who care more about themselves than you and me. 

                                     Remember, Monday

        

Our Sins, Like Scarlet 

     It's a picture of being stained with blood. 

     We try to "bleach" our lives with church attendance and good deeds. But under heaven's light, the stain remains. We cannot self-clean sin. 

     Without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness. - Hebrews 9:22. The Jewish people understood that. Sacrifice. But the blood of bulls and goats could never erase the stain.  

The Blood of Jesus 

     It doesn't lighten the stain. It replaces it, if we believe. His blood covers our guilt, our stain. We are purchased, cleansed. We are not our own. We are bought with the very blood of Jesus. 

     There is no conference or self-help book - worthy though they may be - just the blood. That's why we value communion, to remind us of what Jesus did for us. 

     Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. - Isaiah 1:18.
