Now a days, it’s a regularly activity to first question a national or international historical figure; in civilian cases, it is the parliament to order and remove sculptures, change the road names, etc. in others it is the people, especially the young ones, who directly with a couple of ropes take them down trying to cancel, change, or rewrite the books of History.

Herodotus, the father of history, understood this discipline because it never was a science, as the way to remember tales, and especially spoken comments and ideas he collected on his trips around the Mediterranean.

An example of what I mean is that the grave of Tutankhamon and his name in Egyptian history was unknown in the times of Herodotus, who was born a thousand years after the famous Egyptian pharaoh. Tutankhamon’s life was hidden just after his death because they wanted to cancel him forever so the people couldn’t follow his ideas or put in practice his thinking, especially about religion. Somehow he was putting in danger the establishment of his time. If we know about him, and for the good of an entire country, his grave was found recently after 3k years because of the plan for it to never be found . This is history as well. So it’s human practice to decided after a couple of beers not to change the way they live, but to rewrite History!

Yamamoto was a Japanese hero, since the Japanese-Russian war.

He was born in an old Samurai family, very poor after the loss of power of the Feudal Guardians of the Emprire(the Samurai’s).

He was adopted after the death of his parents by the Japanese First Minister and famous admiral Yamamoto, who gave his name to Isoroku.

He spoke perfect English since he served as naval attaché in the USA.

Yamamoto learned much about the American army and the loyalty of its citizens to serve in cases of war.

He was against the Japanese military political influence in the government, convinced that it will distance the real needs of the Japanese and especially make loose power to the Emperor. He was raised like a Samurai, and his respect for the sacred figure of the Emperor was never in dispute. They didn’t follow his line of thinking, especially, that attacking the USA will not just offend them(The Americans), but will wake up the lion that was just resting. They commanded him to attack America, and destroy the USA float in the Pacific! He succeeded but the lion woke up, first killing him in an impressive airforce mission by intercepting his airplane and defence convoy when he was visiting his troops in the Pacific Islands. After that his country was destroyed in the first and only(hopefully) military use of atomic energy against a country. Who found the burned body of Yamamoto said that he killed himself after surviving the airplane crash with his own Samurai sword!

1Million Japanese’s attended his funeral. Yamamoto: A devoted Japanese to his emperor, and people, died with a deep view of Geopolitical; and Convinced of the importance of the Division of Powers, as very necessary for the stability of a country.

Chacalon or Papa Chacalon was a Vernacular Peruvian singer, who created a sound, mixed with some direct and emotional letters, that people called “Cholos” danced, especially on Sundays, in a Mega concert improvised place, called: La Carpa Grau! Was the place where the young people that lived in the hills and the desserts, surrounded this gigant and collapsed city called Lima.

La Chola, is a woman of any age who originally came from the Andean’s. They arrive very young leaving their mountain, animals and starts the wish and hope for a better life on this Megalopoli called Lima.

They normally work as cleaning persons for normal workers of the city, in an apartment or in a normal house, they are call Padron or Jefe (The house owner); they are just very normal and almost poor people compared with the economical occidental standards. But the Chola become the true mother of the kids, cleaning them, feeding them food, and protecting them during their first steps, they clean the house, wash the clothes, and they cook. For the Padron is a social status to have one or more Cholas! Normally they have one day free, because is preferred the Chola con “cama adentro”, means that they rest inside the house. They have for them in most of the cases foldable beds, contradictory called “Comodoy”! They wash theirselves usually in the laundry sink and sleep there (Laundry Area) as well. Some people are very proud to show their guest that they build a Micro room inside they Microapparments for the Chola.

Talking about the free day, it is preferred Sunday, because the owners (of the Chola) are both at home. In some cases she earns (LaChola) more than one or both members of the couple, the important matter is the social status! What social status? Me personally I don’t know or understand since you contract( very low percentual, normally they work in black )a person that comes from the Andeans that unfortunately doesn’t, have light or current water or sanity services. Doesn’t know how to write and read in Spanish (Some speak a native language called Quechua) And you order them, to clean, take care of your children and cook for you! They can say that they have a Chola that is a great Chef as well. So comes Sunday and this women, after leaving the food prepared for the “Padrones”, goes away of their “jail”, just during the day. They need to come back before 8pm. They prepare their hair and dress in clean ironed clothes to wear, for this special day. With joy the old Chola, will go to visit her children, that in most of the cases are independent workers already, or sometimes little kids, that are taking care in the dirty sand by an old relative. She takes the money that she earned and gives almost all of it to take care of her young kids, or to help the bigger ones just married, to pay for the construction materials, to build them their own kind of house on the sand for the new family. The only property title of the land it that they put a Peruvian flag on a wood stand, as symbolic right!

The young Cholas, went to the concerts of Chacalon, went to dance, and meet another young people having just few hours of time, listen to this music that touched deeply their feelings, and holds the perfumes of the green herbs of the andeans located very far away!

After just 28 years I started to Read a book I bought at the time from Mikhail Aleksandrovich Sholokhov, “Virgin Soil Upturned” The Life after the Russian Revolution and the upcoming of Joseph Stalin in the power of the new URSS. The book Centers the problematic in the Kulaks, the new rich owners of the lands. Simple workers before the revolution, that for sure with intelligence and hard work created their own Land Empire. For Stalin these people needed to be exterminated as enemies of the revolution, and their lands confiscated! He wanted to create instead the Kolchoz or collective farms, like the actual Israelian Kibbutz. The Main idea was to give profit to more people, and that this organised cooperatives can afford a Tractor or tractors, to handle better the lands. This is already history, like the second book of Virgin Soil Upturned, the author lost this manuscript under a german attack(During WWII) in his village, his house, and almost all of his family! He needed an extra 28 years to complete it with the fear that after the war he was a different man. He won the Nobel Price afterwards. What I have to say is: How important was the Land and the farming for the states and the people, now the old farmers, need to be assisted of African workers, with a very different culture that changes forever the traditions of the towns!
O tempora, o mores, will say Cicerone!

Jim Thorpe was an American Icon, an Olympionic figure, as the first Greeks like Filippides the messenger running the 25miles from Marathon to Athens to inform about the victory of Greece against the Persians during the Medic War!
Jim Thorpe was a Native American Indian!
Wa Tho Huk! That means Bright Path in English! And he was a thunderbolt in sports, specially in American Football. First President of the NFL!
He won 8 olimpic medals in running, jumping, marathon, decathlon, etc with a pair of broken shoes, after they stole his, in Sweden in 1912! After 6 months they took away his records and medals, because he was payed some dollars to play sports before the Olympic Games. At that time, the Olympic Games was just for “amateurs” (Normal citizens that made sports just for love and passion). President Eisenhower played against Thorpe when he was in the West Point football team! They lost 27 to 6! Thorpe scored almost all the points! He never understood how a Native American was able to do this! It was a different America, when Native American Indians were not full citizens until the end of the 1920’s.

What happened in the last United Kingdom General elections was a big surprise for everybody, especially for the historical victory of Sir Keir Starmer with Almost complete Support of the citizens. What is positive is the respect that British politicians have for the political rules. A few hours later, the newly elected First Minister is in front of the King getting the keys of 10 Downing Street! This is something to teach in many Democratic countries. From the other side I had big expectations for Rishi Sunak, a very brilliant person. But the current status of the world economics and geopolitics, are a big weight for all the occidental world. Enough reason to fail in his initiatives with little frame of time to implement them. Sir Keir Starmer who will respect Shabbos and Shabbat and this is a Mitzvah; will have all in his hands now. But just to raise taxes on the Rich people or fortunes? This is not a Solution, Never was, money goes little and in the wrong pockets. Socialist governments historically work just in times of wealth. He Needs to reinvent a new UK socialism that give opportunities to everybody (Rich and Poor), to Open Businesses to work, to aid the old people, to work in the farms, industries, ports etc; and to have constant educational projects, made by people who know about economy; the developed British companies and groups. Internationatly he needs to look at Australia, that holds the same king, that has a lot of Space for present and future, for New British generations. The Australians are in need of UK Diplomat support to open new market possibilities to avoid the control and disrespect of China. There’s a lot to do!
Mazel Tov! Sir Keir Starmer.

Abraham Lincoln is not just the founder of the Republican Party, the winner of the American Civil War. The President that believed in the US integrity. A citizen from Kentucky that arrived to the power taking out the traditional city people from the government. He was his own university of law, becoming maybe, one of the best presidents in the history of the occidental culture, holding the heart of a boy like Tom Sawyer!

An authentic American patriot!
