Americans STILL not ASHAMED of the Cuban Blockade.


While Cuban Children are still STARVING!!

        Tracey Eaton, one of the USA's all-time greatest journalists, recently returned to Cuba to ascertain the well-known dire conditions for the 10 million Cubans on the island. He posted the above images on his Facebook page this week.
 Cubans on the island mostly blame the endless U.S economic EMBARGO/Blockade that was first imposed on Cuba in 1962, right after the 1961 air-land-sea Bay of Pigs military attack on Cuba failed to overthrow Fidel Castro's revolutionary governemnt that in 1959 had overthrown the US-backed/Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship.
      Since 1959 Cubans fleeing the Cuban Revolution fled northward and created Little Havana in nearby Miami Florida. Since then, rich and politifcally powerful Cuban-Americans in Miami and later in Washington have dictated the USA's Cuban policies, at least according to many Cubans on the island and many poeple worldwide.
A few miles from Florida, Cuba is very vulnerable.
     In 1898 the United States, including future President Teddy Roosevelt, realized that over-extended Spain was no longer strong enough to maintain its dictatorship on Cuba. Thus the Spanish-American War fought on Cuban soil easily and quickly ended with the United States, not Spain, the dominant factor in control of Cuba.
    The brutal dictator of Cuba, Fulgencio Batista, fled Cuba in the wee hours of January 1, 1959, and landed first in dictator Rafael Trujillo's Dominican Republic to avoid the rebel army charging toward Havana from the city of Santa Clara. The Batista dictatorship, with help from the U. S. and the Mafia, had used rampant tourism, gambling, drugs, prostitution, etc., to rake in tons of money as did major U. S. companies that were ubiquitous on the island and which made fortunes too.
     As the Cuban Revolution took control of Cuba in january of 1959, the Miami Cubans and the United States unleashed a world-record assassination attempts against rebel leader Fidel Castro but failed to kill him. He died at age 90 in Havana in 2016.
       In April of 1961 the Miami-U.S. Bay of Pigs military attack failed as shown above as Fidel Castro was awakened when U. S. bombs began falling on Camp Colombia on the edge of Havana. The CIA had told President John Kennedy that Fidel Castro would flee Havana in his getaway airplane when he heard the first bombs, but he never had a getaway airplane and instead raced hell-bent south of Havana to the coast where the land attack was taken place at the Bay of Pigs.
       The avalanche of failed assaination attempts continued after the failed Bay of Pigs military attack, so in 1962 the U. S. began an economic Embargo surounding Cuba that the Cubans call a Blockade. According to declassified U. S. documents, the purpose of the Blockade was to...starve, deprive, and make miserable the Cuban people to induce them to rise up and overthrow the Cuban Revolution. The Embargo-Blockade that began in 1962 has been tightened steadily and is stronger than ever in October of 2026.
     Since 2018 Miguel Diaz-Canel has been Cuba's President after his popular stint as the island's Minister of Education. He claims that the U. S. government and a biased U. S. media have used falsehoods to support the Embargo/Blockade -- with such claims that "Cuba is planning to attack the Ul." Diaz-Canel says, "Cuba has to seach for means to try to feed and educate its people and we have never searched for ways to attack the world's superpower that is so many times stronger than we are."
        Notable journalist Liz Hernandez uses daily reports as well as her "The War on Cuba" documentaries to report on U.S.-Cuban Relations.
Meanwhile, Little Cuba tries to resist its largest neighbor.
     But in 2026 Miami's Little Havana-born Marco Rubio is now the ULTRA-powerful U. S. Secretary of State and National Security Adviser under President Donald Trump. As a Little Havana politician in Miami/Florida, and then a longtime stint in the U. S. Senate and now as Secretary of State, Marco Rubio all of his adult life has dreamed of overthrowing the Cuban Revolution. It is now believed that he has the power to do so.
Throughout 2026 Rubio's Cuban headlines are frequent.
Nearby Miami now almost savors Cuba.
   Miami-born and Little Havana's most powerful Cuban-American, Marco Rubio often "professes 'Support' for the Cuban People." However, most Cubans in Cuba simply to not believe him...citing his failure to ease the Blockade.
     And, in fact, there are many Cuban-Americans who do not agree with Marco Rubio's plans for Cuba. For example, the passionate and brilliant Dailyn Brinas is one of the Cuban-Americans who founded "Cuban-Americans for Cuba" and speak profoundly on behalf of the Cubans in Cuba. In the speech above, Dailyn Brinas said, "Marco Rubio does not speak for us, not for me! And neither do his other top enablers from Miami such as Maria Salazar, Carlos Gimenez, and Mario Diaz-Balart. Our relatives in Cuba, all the families in Cuba, are suffering and dying while a few Cuban-Americans rejoice and get richer with unearned political power. This has been going on since the revolution chased Batista off the island. Starving Cuban children in Cuba since 1959, and now blacking out even electric power that keeps babies alive must stop. Rubio and his Miami power-base are not the answer. Kindness and compassion are the answer. And we Cuban-Americans for Cuba DEMAND IT."

The World Keeps Eyes on a CUBAN WAR.

And Cuba's President Talks Bolder!!

        Cuba's President since 2018, Miguel Diaz-Canel, as shown above, is talking harsher than ever against the US/Trump declared plan to "take over Cuba." 
        Cuba's longtime, highly respected Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez, as shown above, is now more than ever blasting the U. S. blockade of his island-nation.
          And meanwhile, the headlines now are proclaiming that the "threat of military force" against Cuba by the United States is getting closer and closer. The article by CBS News on September 27th in 2026, as headlined above, began with this paragraph: "The U. S. Army Reserve is examining whether it can provide the military's Southern Command with police force, medical personnel, and other support units within the next four months, according to an internal Army message reviewed by CBS News." And CBS News suggested the target of that message is Cuba.
     Cuba's prime expert on the island's relations with the United States is Carlos F. de Cossio. He now is engaged in an intensive campaign to explain that "Cuba is not a threat" but he says that "the U. S. blockade of Cuba drastically threatens Cuba's citizens." And he is all over the internet as well on regioanal and internation television stations that will allow him to speak on behalf of the 10 million everyday Cubans.
      At the United Nations and other venues, Cuba's Foregin Minister Bruno Rodriguez strongly and eloquently details the "genocidal effects that the U. S. blockade is having on Cuba's citizens, especially the children." 
     And meanwhile, as mandated by U. S. President Donald Trump, the ultra-powerful U. S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio appears to be making the finally judgments and decisions regarding Cuba's fate. A Cuban-American born in Miami, Rubio all of his adult life has openly worked to overthrow the Cuban Revolution that overthrew the US/Mafia-backed Batista Dictatorship way back in January of 1959, an epic event that also swiftly created a counter-revolutionary stronghold in Little Havana in Miami.
         The above images truly reveal and echo Cuba's history from 1953 till 2026, but mostly such historic facts are distorted for various and convenient reasons.
      Last week in late September of 2026 at the United Nations U. S. President Donald Trump once again told the world about his plans for a regime "change in Cuba." This again spotlighted the fact that, even with raging wars in Ikraine and Iran, the United States is not altering its plans to finally overthrow the rule of Cuba's 1959 Revolution.
   Last week U. S. President Donald Trump hosted Chinese President Xi Jinping warmly and lavishly for three days in Washington. Democracy-led United STates and Communist-led China are easily the two richest and most powerful nations in the world. They have engagements with each other but are also dire threats and competitors to each other. They differ about Cuba but it is obvious that China is not willing to go to war about Cuba but it is also obvious that China will go to war regarding its sacred hope to reclaim the important breakaway island-nation of Taiwan. So the massive US-China-Cuba-Taiwan situations will likely leave Cuba out in the cold as it strives to face the latest threats from its superpower neighbor, the United States.
And meanwhile, Zi supports Cuba...but not much.
And meanwhile, Marco Rubio makes U. S.-Cuban plans.
     And meanwhile, Cuba's Carlos de Cossio keeps begging Marco Rubio to stop saying that the little blockaded island of Cuba "is a threat to the superpower United States."  
        And meanwhile, Little Havana's and America's ultra-powerful Secretary of State and National Security Advisor Marco Rubio just says, "How come I always get the Cuba Questions?" At the moment, it is apparent that he had rather be asked about things like ongoing wars in Iran and Ukraine than about an upcoming war in Cuba. But, of course, Marco Rubio is very smart and he fully knows why he gets so many questions about...poor little CUBA where the revolutionary flag still waves stubbornly in the Caribbean winds.

18.9.26

A 7-decade struggle to end USA's Cuban blockade.

 Now DEEP into September of 2026!!

      Today on September 18 & 19 in 2026 the Latin American notice shown above informed Cuba's neighbors that the severely tightened seven-decade-old U. S. Embargo/Blockade more than ever is starving, depriving, and making miserable the everyday people in Cuba for the purpose of inducing them to rise up and  overthrow their revolutionary government that way back in 1959 overthrew the U.S.-backed Batista dictatorship. The Embargo/Blockade surrounding Cuba began in February of 1962 and has not overthown Cuba's rebel government but it indeed has starved, deprived, and made miserable generations of everyday Cuban people.
       As shown above, the headline today from the london-based Reuters, the world's most repsected News Agency, reminds the world that the ever-tightening U. S. Embargo of Cuba, as usual, has again totally shut off all energy to create island-wide blackouts.
      Since 1962 only rich and politically powerful Cuban-Americans have supported and approved of the drastic EMBARTO that has surrounded CUBA for almost seven decades, but the rest of the United States and the rest of the world cannot do anything about it. For example, every October for decades the United Nations has voted loudly to end the EMBARGO, usually with votes of about 189-to-2, but that near-unanimous plea by world opinion doesn't court. 
     But regarding the EMBARGO of Cuba, since 1959 Cuba's close prosimity to Miami has predicated the endless and drasic EMBARGO.
      U. S. politicians such as President Donald Trump are not about to defy Miami's rich and powerful Cuban-Americans when it comes to Cuban policies. Thus, the extreme measures of the EMBARGO that began way back in 1962 are routinely strengthened time-and-again...and AGAIN.
       As shown above, famed Cuban-Americans and Cubans in Cuba want some help for the everyday Cubans on the island, but they are routinely ignored.
These Cuban headlines now deep in September of 2026.
      The great Cuban and Caribbean photographer Vladimi Molina daily posts great photos and everyday messages on social media platforms such as Facebook. His message today says: "If Cubans offer love and friendship to the whole world, why do Trump and Marco Rubio want to destroy us?" 
      Today and many other days Vladimi Molina posted photos of beautiful Cuban women with messages such as: "Despite all the difficulties we face, we can never lose our beautiful Cuban smile." 
       But today -- September 19, 2026 -- Vladimir Molina also posted the above photo to suggest that this Cuban farmer is not a threat to the superpowr United States.
        And, sometimes of course, Vladimi Molina must post photos of beautiful Cuban women who are not still providing their beautiful smiles.
       Most regional leaders, such as Mexico's President Claudia Sheinbaum, are trying their best to help the masses of everyday Cuban people in Cuba.
        Miami-born Cuban-American Marco Rubio is now the ultra-powerful United States Secretary of State, which means he has enormous power "to help" the Cubans on the island. But Rubio also supports the endless EMBARGO.
      Back in 2016 while serving President Barack Obama, Ben Rhodes tried to end the EMBARGO and normalize relations with Cuba. Now in September of 2026 Ben Rhodes disagrees with President Trump's plans to "invade Cuba." 
      Back in March of 2016 this historic photo shows President Barack Obama and Ben Rhodes excitedly looking down at Havana from Air Force One as it was flyiing over Cuba's capital city!!! 
      On his historic trip to Cuba in March of 2016 President Obama went on national radio and television to make this sacred promise to the Cuban people: "Cuba does not need to fear a threat from the United States." Today on September 19th in 2026 there are ten million Cubans in Cuba who wish those words were and are true.
      But in September of 2026 -- with no power in their homes and with dire shortages of food, medicine, and other necessities -- there are ten million Cubans in Cuba who fear the United States.
