Ghost Ship" Called The Ss Ourang Medan


Ghost Ship" Called The Ss Ourang Medan

In the 1940s, an eerie story about a mysterious "ghost ship" called the SS Ourang Medan began appearing in newspapers around the world.

 Each version of the tale varied slightly, but most agreed on a few key points. The Dutch vessel was traveling through the Strait of Malacca near Indonesia when its radio operator suddenly sent out a chilling message: 

"SOS from Ourang Medan… We float. All officers, including the Captain, dead in chartroom and on the bridge. Probably whole of crew dead… I die." An American ship called the Silver Star soon responded and the rescuers who boarded the Ourang Medan came upon a horrifying scene.

The entire crew was dead, scattered throughout the vessel with their faces frozen in terror. Even the ship's dog had died mid-snarl. 

However, there were no apparent injuries on their bodies and no one could figure out how they died. The Silver Star was then about to tow the Ourang Medan to port when the ship suddenly caught on fire. 

The rescuers barely managed to escape when the Ourang Medan exploded before sinking to the sea floor, never to be seen again. Perhaps even more chilling is the fact there is no official record that the ship ever even existed, but the story of the SS Ourang Medan has endured ever since.

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski

The capture of brave Russian officer Rosinski This is a shocking image and I apologize in advance for sharing it, but here’s one that truly got to me… in Belarus, 1918, after WWI had already ended, the brave Russian officer Rosinski was captured by the Bolsheviks. The Bolsheviks tortured the captain, likely to get information out of the man, which he bravely refused to give. After that, they simply continued with the torture out of some sick sense of innate cruelty. He was ‘the enemy’ and he was at their mercy, so they brutally murdered their captive. The brave captain was emasculated. And anally impaled on a tree branch. All this while still alive. Alfred Savoir, the man who published the picture and was an eye witness to the death of the brave military officer, described "M. B.", who ordered this atrocity, thus: I knew him not long ago; he was a charming teenager with an ironic wit and joker. He was rubbed with French culture, he admired the novels of Barres and he qu

  WARNING! PHOTO BELOW ARE NOT MET FOR THE WEAK HEART. Please note: The following subject matter is of immense importance, but could be difficult to read. There is a Frank Discussion Of Rape And Other Atrocities Committed During War. After entering a large museum in one of the world’s most ancient cities and the former capital of the Chinese empire, Nanking—or Nanjing as it’s known today—my 18-year-old daughter Sophia and I walked over a glass walkway that allowed us to look down 10 feet of earth and observe an ancient footpath. Lights highlighted the ground under the glass while the room we were in was dark.  To our right hung numerous photographs on a black wall showing Japanese soldiers slaughtering Chinese citizens in December 1937 revealed by individual lights, the types one sees on art museum paintings. Dead babies, severed heads, piles of bodies on Yangtze River banks, and helpless prisoners of war were all documented there by photographs taken by the perpetrators themselves,

Why Most Married White Women Have Black Lovers

  Why Most Married White Women Have Black Lovers I learned the simple fact that many WW marry WM for the bag 💰 and once they are set, they go back to their pre marriage days of black lovers fun or just looking to finally fulfill a long time curiosity. Married or divorced this is prevalent in many places. One thing women do is communicate greatly about their love life/ sexual relationships and many have varying things to say about black men. With no need for money, stability, or family, growth all fulfilled then the life focus changes to personal desires and wants. This is why if you go to Jamaica there are tons of single older WW. Or in the case of the Kardashians, they have their money and now for the boy toy sexual fulfillment of a black man. This is not the only reason but definitely a huge factor in these relationships. WW have always been attracted to and seeking black men. Only with the pressure of racist WM and their ongoing angst fragility and const

A video of the incident has started doing the rounds online and was shared on Twitter by the Marxist Party of Nigeria, which says the incident took place in the Bakassi Peninsula, Nigeria. Reports online suggest the man was a petty thief who stole something worth "less than a dollar". In the stomach-churning clip, one of the crowd suddenly kneels next to the already-naked man and literally bites off his penis. Others in the sickening blood-thirsty mob then stone him as he writhes helpless on the

The Horror Of The Rape Of Nanking The horrific events are known as the Nanking Massacre or the Rape of Nanking, as estimated that 20,000 women including some children and the elder were raped during the occupation A large number of rapes were done systematically by the Japanese soldiers as they went from door to door searching for girls and many women being captured and gang raped.The women were often killed immediately after being raped. The Japanese were infuriated by the strength of Chinese resistance and when China's Nationalist capital Nanking fell in December 1937, Japanese troops immediately slaughtered thousands of Chinese soldiers who had surrendered to them. The Japanese then rounded up about twenty thousand young Chinese men and transported them in trucks outside the city walls where they were killed in a massive slaughter. Japanese troops were then encouraged by their officers to loot Nanking and slaughter and rape the Chinese population of the city. For six weeks, life

Freedomite

See video F reedo m i t e The  Freedomite  movement consists of a split-off of the Doukhobors, a community of Spiritual Christians began a mass migration from Russia to Canada in 1898. The Freedomite movement first appeared in 1902 in Saskatchewan, and later in the Kootenay and Boundary Districts of British Columbia. Freedomites began to divide from Doukhobors in 1902 in Saskatchewan, Canada, self-named as "God's people" and  Svobodniki  (Russian: "sovereign people"). The faction, later called "Freedomites", opposed land ownership, public schools, using work animals, etc. and are mainly known for protesting nude. By 1920 the common English term for them became  Sons of Freedom . Of about 20,000 active Doukhobors in Canada today, ancestors of about 2,500 were Freedomites, and many descendants have joined the USCC Community Doukhobors.

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women.

During World War II, millions of people were sent to concentration camps, including women.  Women in concentration camps were subjected to brutal treatment and often faced more severe conditions than their male counterparts. The conditions in the camps were inhumane, and women were often subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experiments. Women were treated differently in concentration camps than men. They were often separated from their families, forced to perform hard labor, and subjected to sexual abuse. Women who were pregnant were also subjected to harsh conditions and medical experimentation. Many women were killed, either as part of the genocide or because they were deemed too weak to continue working. One of the most notorious concentration camps where women were held was Auschwitz-Birkenau. There, women were subjected to forced labor, starvation, and medical experimentation. Many were killed in gas chambers or through other forms of execution. The camp was designed

REASONS NAZI STRIP PRISONER BEFORE EXECUTION

Image
REASONS NAZI STRIP PRISONER BEFORE EXECUTION The Nazis employed the dehumanizing practice of making people strip naked before being executed or subjected to gas chambers for several interconnected reasons. Firstly, it served to strip victims of their individuality and dignity. By forcing people to remove their clothing, the Nazis aimed to reduce them to mere numbers, degrading their humanity and making it easier for the perpetrators to view them as disposable entities rather than fellow human beings. Secondly, it facilitated the process of disposal and decontamination. Removing clothing reduced the risk of contamination from any potential chemicals or diseases, making it easier for the Nazis to manage the disposal of bodies and minimize the risks to the executioners themselves. Thirdly, it amplified the psychological torment of the victims. Stripping people of their clothing left them exposed, vulnerable, and humiliated, intensifying their emotional suffering before their eventu

HELMUT NEWTON (1920-2004) Crocodile Eating Ballerina, from the Pina Bausch Ballet, ‘Keushleitslegende’, Wuppertal, 1983 🐊 #crocodile This image caused a considerable problem for Peter Beard, to whose self-portrait from 1960 (lot 24) it bears a close affinity. Newton had sent Beard the catalogue of his 1984-85 show at the Musée d'Art Moderne de la Ville de Paris. This image was on the cover. Later in 1985 the police raided Beard's Hog Ranch home in Kenya on the basis of a corrupt political plot to seize his property. It was claimed by the police that the Pina Bausch artist was 'improperly dressed'. Beard was charged with possessing pornography and trafficking in 'abscene [sic] literature'.  This image caused a considerable problem for Peter Beard, to whose self-portrait from 1960 it bears a close affinity.

When we got to that house, we were told that we were there for the sexual pleasure of the Japanese military ...  We immediately started to protest. We said we were forced to, that they couldn't do this to us, they didn't have the right to  Doing it, it was against the Geneva Convention, and we never would. But they laughed at us, you know, they just laughed. They said they could do with us what they wanted. " One of the most heinous  war crimes committed by the Japanese Imperial Army in Southeast Asia during World War II was the ruthless sexual exploitation of 200,000 Asian women (Chinese, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Filipino, Korean and even Japanese) and 200  -300 Dutch and 30 Australian women. During the war the imperial army, worried about the spread of venereal diseases, decided to open a chain of brothels in all the conquered territories in order to avoid this problem (this was an example of what had happened in India in the nineteenth century where the  he Br
