Mao’s Legacy and Accomplishments

Mao Tse‐tung, who began as an obscure peasant, died one of history’s great revolutionary figures. In Chinese terms, he ranked with the first Emperor who unified China in 200 B.C.

A Chinese patriot, a combative revolutionary, a fervent evangelist, a Marxist theorist, a soldier, a statesman and poet, above all Mao was a moralist who deeply believed, as have Chinese since Confucius, that man’s goodness must come ahead of his mere economic progress.

China achieved enormous economic progress under Mao. He transformed China into a modern, industrialized socialist state.”

Unlike many great leaders, Mao never exercised, or sought, absolute control over day‐to‐day affairs.”

Israel will boost its military industry with the construction of an equipment factory

The news comes when 300 days have passed since the Israeli military operation against the Islamic terrorist group Hamas in the Gaza Strip, for which US military aid is being necessary.

The IDF has already warned that it is suffering a personnel crisis, but according to a recent article in The New York Times it is also facing a shortage of tank shells and parts to repair military vehicles.

This while the country is preparing for a possible regional war, after the escalation of tension on the border with Lebanon with the Shiite terrorist group Hezbollah and threats from Iran after an attack in Tehran that caused the death of Ismail Haniyeh, leader of the political office of Hamas, which the Islamic Republic attributes to Israel.

Washington even delayed sending certain types of bombs to Israel, citing the possibility that they would be used against civilians in the Gaza Strip, highlighting Israel’s strong dependence on American weapons.
