Lying About Cuba Harms America

To Benefit A Nefarious Few!
       Americans are not supposed to see or understand photos such as this one because it's a Cuban positive in April of 2017 and therefore might serve to contradict the Cuban narrative in the United States, a narrative self-servingly dictated since 1959 by elements that fled the overthrown Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba. But permit me to show you this photo, taken by Miguel Febles Hernandez, and explain its meaning. In the forefront are a Cuban mother and her daughter. They had just had check-ups...health care in Cuba is totally free...at a brand new, just-opened polyclinic shown in the background. The clinic is named for "Rosa Castellanos," which is fitting because the Cuban Revolution was spawned in 1953 by Cuban females outraged by the Batista-Mafia treatment of the island's besieged women and children. The "Rosa Castellanos Clinic" is located in the municipality of Najasa to serve its citizens free of charge 24 hours a day. I mention it not because it is earth-shaking news outside of today's Cuba but because propagandized Americans, since 1959, have meekly and callously allowed miscreants from their soil to...attack Cuba militarily such as at the Bay of Pigs; to sanitize themselves and vilify innocent Cubans; to attack Cuba with terrorist acts such as the bombing of the civilian Cubana Flight 455; to car-bomb a Cuban-American newsman named Emilio Milian in Miami just because he objected to such things; and to try to starve and deprive Cuba from 1962 till today with the cruelest and longest economic embargo ever imposed by a powerful nation against a weak one. Much larger nations than Cuba would have succumbed long ago to such assaults engineered by unchecked counter-revolutionaries hiding behind the skirts of the world's superpower. One reason Revolutionary Cuba still stands as a sovereign nation is because it still has on the island a bevy of fiercely determined and very talented women...such as Isabel Gonzalez Cardenas
       One of the Cuban officials who presided over the opening of the Rosa Castellanos Clinic was Isabel Gonzalez Cardenas. She is the President of the Provincial Assembly in Camaguey, Cuba. At the clinic's opening ceremony she said, "Now and forever we will do all we can with all the resources we have to take care of our people, especially the women and children who are the best gauge of how a society cares for its citizens. This new clinic is an example. We have been assaulted and embargoed for over half-a-century from a nearby nation that happens to be the world's superpower, but as long as we can breathe on this island we will continue the best we can to try to protect our people far better than they fared when the superpower and the Miami Mafia criminals ruled Cuba on the island just as they are now trying to rule it from the United States." 
        A handful of vicious Cuban-Americans from Miami entrenched in the U. S. Congress -- such as Senator Marco Rubio and Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart -- dictate America's Cuban policy that currently and correctly has a 191-to-0 condemnation in the United Nations. The cowered and/or incompetent U. S. media will eagerly promote anything Rubio and Diaz-Balart say or propose about Cuba, without ever mentioning such things as...Diaz-Balart's father was a powerful Minister in the Batista dictatorship and after 1959 an extremely rich and powerful counter-revolutionary zealot in Miami. Rubio, as any Google research will confirm, is every bit as controversial as Diaz-Balart within the confines of Miami's Banana Republic-like politics, controversies the mainstream media wouldn't dare touch. All polls show that most of the two million Cuban-Americans in South Florida favor a decent Cuban policy but there seems to be zero chance that a moderate Cuban from the rich Banana Republic could get elected to the United States Congress. In the last few days Rubio made headlines by bragging he had met "three times" with President Trump about Cuba, three ominous meetings that are far more insulting to the United States than to Cuba, which as Isabel indicated is still breathing. And in the last few days, Diaz-Balart has made headlines by demanding that Cuba, essentially, totally capitulate to his dictates "WITHIN 90 DAYS" or else!! Yes, OR ELSE. Cuba has been getting or else dictates from the rich, powerful & unchallenged Diaz-Balarts since 1959. 
       Meanwhile, on the island of Cuba itself, women like Isabel Gonzalez Cardenas are diligently working to protect and improve the lives of Cuban citizens, especially the women and children that she says "are the best gauge of how a society takes care of its people." Isabel deserves to smile and be proud of herself.
