Starving Cuban Children

To Appease Cuban-American Extremists!?!
{Monday, May 6th, 2019}
    This photo was taken this past weekend -- Saturday, May 4th, 2019. It shows Cuban children playing on a sandy beach. Christopher P. Baker and the OTHER FOUR top Travel Writers in the world claim that Cuban children on the island are among the most closely protected children in the "entire world." American democracy-lovers who have visited the island, including me, agree with that assessment. And, sadly, these Cuban children need to be protected from a mostly unchecked minority of Cuban-Americans in the nearby United States of America. Why? I believe the answer is this: The last two generations of Americans, which includes me, have been the least patriotic and the most cowardly generations in America's history. To allow a mere handful of greedy and revengeful Cuban-Americans, for six decades, to unmercifully target totally innocent Cuban children on the nearby island is sinful, and we THE MAJORITY OF AMERICA'S PEOPLE are most to blame for not having the guts to stop it.
    This little Cuban girl is shown playing in the sand on Saturday, May 4th, 2019. No rich foreigner should be allowed to harm her.
     That same precious little Cuban girl is shown later on Saturday, May 4th, 2019 taking a break from the Caribbean sun under a shade tree. She seems to be gazing across the Florida Straits where, 90 miles distant,  a handful of a second generation of revengeful Cuban-Americans are allowed to threaten this little girl everyday...as they or their fathers have been allowed to threaten all little girls on the island since January of 1959 when the Cuban Revolution chased the leaders of the Batista-Mafia dictatorship to a safe and lucrative haven on U. S. soil. During the latest Republican administration in Washington, Marco Rubio and his ilk can take advantage of this cowardly, unpatriotic generation of Americans and rejoice in making the far more decent Cuban mothers on the island fearful for their children. Every American and every true citizen of the world knows that undeniable fact but few have the guts to even admit that the famous New York Times Editorial was and is 100% correct and has come to define the Batistiano-Little Havana grip on America: "There is, finally, something indecent about vociferous exiles living safely in Miami prescribing more pain for their poorer cousins." Rubio should  be ashamed of himself, but he's not.
    As far as visitors to the island can detect, every mother in Cuba believes Little Havana's U. S. Senator from Miami, Marco Rubio, is a liar when he claims he is trying to help everyday Cubans on the island. To date, although even the left-wing mainstream media in the USA is too afraid to admit it, President Trump's most salacious and most anti-democratic collusion so far is with Rubio, whom Trump has appointed as the USA's Cuban dictator. Rubio trying to help everyday Cubans on the island? As far as is known, every mother on the island of Cuba believes that Rubio is perfectly willing to punish every child on the island in order to pad his economic and political nests. And so...on Saturday, May 4th, 2019...that is precisely where U.S.-Cuban relations stand. And for allowing the likes of Marco Rubio to leave Little Havana in Miami and direct punishment of innocent Cubans from Washington should shame every American and every Cuban-American.
    Each week the Batistiano-directed Trump administration ratchets up its ongoing effort to totally starve the Cuban economy once and for all, well knowing the prime victims of starvation will be millions of totally innocent children and mothers. As of the first week in May, 2019, the Trump White House starvation goals against Cubans reached a peak that not even the George W. Bush presidency would accept -- which was to activate Title 3, which is the meanest and most anti-democratic of all the Batistiano-written Helms-Burton rules that are all designed to enrich and empower selected Cuban-Americans while also easing the pathway to recapturing Cuba. Starting now about 200,000 lawsuits have begun hitting U.S. courtrooms to reward and award any and all claims against Cuba for property left behind when the Revolution booted the Batista-Mafia leaders back to U. S. soil in 1959 -- with the prime Batistiano sanctuaries of Miami and Newark being the favorite destinations for the fleeing Mafiosi. The very first company to be sued under Title 3 is Carnival Cruise Lines whose headquarters are in Miami and which happens to be the world's largest cruise line with over 100 vessels under 10 brand names. In U. S. courtrooms, as routinely happened after Helms-Burton became eternal U. S. law beginning in 1996, anyone suing Cuba basically was locked-in for a win. Proving or disproving legitimate money or property claims from the Batista-Mafia control of 1950's Cuba is absurd, but so too is every aspect of a great democracy turning over Cuban issues strictly to only a handful of the most extreme Cuban-Americans -- and in the Trump era that means Rubio, the Diaz-Balart brothers, Claver-Carone, etc.
   The top man at Carnival Cruise Lines is Arnold W. Donald.  Every port in the Miami area, where Carnival is headquartered, wants the cruise line business from Florida to Cuba and Mr. Donald was eager to oblige them thanks to the sane and decent pre-Trump presidency of Barack Obama. But even during the Batistiano-directed Trump administration, Mr. Donald's own high-priced lawyers will tell the courts that every cruise Carnival made to Cuba was totally legal according to U. S. laws and regulations even with Trump as President. Mr. Donald also suggests that even a totalitarian government would have trouble denying that claim, but from his office in Miami Mr. Donald also is aware that, since 1959 and particularly since Helms-Burton in 1996, democracy has not been a driving principle when it comes to challenging the economic and political excesses of the Batistiano Americans.
     An Israeli-American who graduated from the University of Miami, Micky Arison is the Chairman of Carnival Cruise Lines, which he molded into the largest international cruise line. Mr. Arison in 2019 personally chose Arnold W. Donald as the company's President and CEO. Attuned to Miami's unique economic and political structures, Mr. Arison now must confront a legal system that revolves around the offshoots of the Helms-Burton Act that is strictly by and for a handful of Cuban-American extremists who use alarming right-wing cracks in the U. S. democracy to perpetuate their two prime goals -- money and...oh, YES...the recapture of Cuba.
   Although most Americans are too afraid to admit it out loud, the Batistiano-gold mine known as the Helms-Burton Act is a HUGE insult to America and to Democracy.
     Americans including their representatives in the U. S. Congress AND EVEN the powerful left-wing news media that is trying so hard to impeach Trump are too afraid to oppose the Helms-Burton Act. Therefore, in 1996 it was allowed to create a Cuban government within the bowels of the U. S. government. But even the George W. Bush presidency, which was 100% aligned with the Little Havana extremists, refused to activate Title 3 of Helms-Burton. Yet, this week -- on Thursday, May 2nd, 2019 -- the Trump presidency ACTIVATED TITLE 3.
    The USA's bravest Editorial Cartoonists relish making fun of Helms-Burton and particularly the absurdly cruel and anti-democratic Title 3. But it is apparent that the U. S. democracy is not strong enough to rein in Helms-Burton, not even Title 3.
     In the 2016 Republican primary Marco Rubio's bid to become U. S. President ended with a thud when rival Donald Trump pinned the "Little Marco" tag on him and he was  also accused of selling out to every right-wing and Israeli billionaire or company on the planet.
    Yet, President Trump anointed Rubio as the USA's Cuban dictator. Many say it is Trump's way to pay homage to Little Havana's control of Florida's 29 electoral votes heading into the 2020 presidential race; but some say it is because Rubio and Miami's Little Havana denizens have damaging insight into something Trump doesn't want divulged. In any case, whether Americans or the media admit it or not, the USA, which supported the brutal Batista dictatorship in Cuba in the 1950s, now has its own Cuban dictator on U. S. soil -- Rubio.
      As the USA's Cuban dictator, Rubio has been allowed to stack President Trump's National Security, Foreign Policy, and State Department teams with only fierce anti-Cuban zealots such as John Bolton, Mike Pompeo, Elliott Abrams, Mauricio Claver-Carone, etc., etc., etc. Beyond the U. S. Senate, it appears that Rubio plans to use his Cuban dictatorship to {1} Recapture Cuba for Little Havana; and {2} replace Trump as the head of the Republican Party, even prior to the upcoming election if his forces can stab Trump in the back by then. In any case, Rubio's current National Security, Foreign Policy, and State Department teams seem absolutely willing, even anxious, to start a Latin American War as a step to recapturing Cuba.
 President Trump's collusion with Senator Rubio may well be the most evil collusion the Trump White House has engaged in. But unlike Russian, North Korean, Saudi Arabian, and a myriad of other supposed collusions, neither the majority of Americans nor the mainstream U. S. media have the courage to question Trump's much more obvious and devious collusion with Rubio. And for that reason, I believe, the U. S. democracy is not strong enough to stop or even discourage the current Trump-Rubio U. S. government goal of starving children on the island of Cuba.
   A Cuban mother in 2019, during the Trump-Rubio era in the nearby United States, needs to tightly hug her child and say this prayer {as shown above}: "I give my life for my kids. May God care for me and bless you always." A Cuban mother trying to survive Trump-Rubio so she can care for and feed her child? Yes, whether Americans admit it or not, that situation in May of 2019 exists on the island of Cuba.
The U. S. government at work.
But the U. S. has enough nuclear weapons to make it stick.
