Cuban Hardliners Rejoice

About Pretexts to Attack Cuba!

This AP photo shows the daughter of an American diplomat looking out the window of the U. S. Embassy in Havana. This embassy in Havana and the Cuban embassy in Washington are products of former President Barack Obama having the courage and decency to try to take America's Cuban policy out of the brutal and revengeful hands of two generations of Miami and Congressional Cubans. Obama reversed a half-century of Batistiano-dictated assaults on Revolutionary Cuba by, among other things, reopening the Havana and Washington embassies. When the Democrat Obama was replaced on Jan. 20-2017 by the Republican Trump, the Cuban hardliners in the U. S. not only envisioned reversing the Obama overtures to Cuba but also, at long last, they saw an opportunity to regain control of Cuba as in the U.S.-backed halcyon days of the Batista-Mafia rule of Cuba from 1952 till 1959. Since the astounding triumph of the Cuban Revolution on Jan. 1-1959, the Miami Cuban Mafia has insisted on dictating America's Cuban policy and, prior to Obama, that was amazingly easy thanks to its alliances with the Bush dynasty and a handful of Bob Torricelli/Jesse Helms-type right-wingers in the U. S. Congress. Obama at least for a time made it a bit tougher but now with the Republican control of the White House and both Houses of Congress, the Counter-Revolutionary Cuban zealots are prancing in high clover once again. So, the little American girl staring so innocently out the window of the Obama-orchestrated U. S. Embassy in Havana portends many covert and overt things in the intricate and tumultuous conundrums that herald U.S.-Cuban relations.

The Miami Cuban Mafia since January of 1959 has, incredibly, been unable to regain control of Cuba despite an arsenal that includes backing from the CIA, the U. S. military, and the United States Congress.

At age 70, James Bamford is enshrined as America's greatest Emmy-winning investigative journalist. His books such as Body of Secrets, A Pretext for War, and The Shadow Factory are considered classics and must-reads for anyone interested in knowing the true documented facts about important issues long-declassified {hidden} by the U. S. government to protect right-wing thugs from being criminally liable for dastardly anti-democratic deeds committed against innocent individuals or nations. James Bamford, for example, was the great U. S. journalist who unveiled, once and for all, criminal and long-declassified U. S. government enterprises such as Northwoods, Mongoose, etc. designed to recapture Cuba for the Batista-Mafia exiles shortly after the 1959 triumph of the Cuban Revolution. Bamford's diligent, brave and indisputable revelations revealed massive schemes by the U. S. government to provide Pretexts for an all-out military attack on Cuba. The schemes included an incredible and startling series of murderous attacks against innocent Americans that would be blamed on Cuba, with the bloody results being presented to the American people to justify a massive military attack on Cuba. Bamford's vital investigative and unchallenged findings regarding Northwoods, Mongoose and the vast array of Batistiano-Mafiosi-American criminal contortions aimed at Revolutionary Cuba remain significant to historians and many democracy-loving Americans although the Batistiano dominance of America's Cuban policies and narratives since 1959 has resulted in most Americans being unconcerned with how much America's Cuban policies have demeaned America and Democracy -- resulting, for example, in the current 191-to-0 condemnation in the UN of America's embargo against Cuba.

In this second week of August-2017, reminders of the documented Northwoods-Mongoose revelations by the great James Bamford were revived by CBS News reporter Julianna Goldman. Even with the mainstream U. S. media mostly engaged with making sure President Trump is impeached in short order, and even with the world concerned about a threatened U.S.-North Korean nuclear war, Ms. Goldman and the rest of the mainstream U. S. media also included a news item about Cuba, which concerned a strange mystery illness suffered by several Americans at the U. S. embassy in Cuba. I hereby feature Ms. Goldman of CBS News because her reports have been among the fairest in the U. S. media, which is important regarding Cuba because mostly the intimidated or politically correct mainstream U. S. media mentions only the anti-Cuban portion of two-sided issues and, of course, the right-wing media and blogs are always searching for northwoods/Mongoose-type excuses to launch all-out military attacks on Cuba. Slightly countering the hysteria about Cuba deliberately trying to poison or cyber-blast innocent Americans at the U. S. embassy in Havana, Ms. Goldman at CBS News at least reported that Cuba has not only denied any knowledge of what happened but that Cuba is also trying to desperately "investigate" the matter. From James Bamford to Julianna Goldman at CBS News, it is well known that Cuba is always on guard against such tactics as Northwoods-Mongoose from the past and more recent Miami-based Brothers to the Rescue-type provocations trying to concoct pretexts for the U. S. to attack Cuba. But, of course, if some respected U. S. journalist such as Ms. Goldman ends up actually reporting that, "Hey!! Cuba DID try to poison those Americans at the U. S. embassy in Havana!!", I'll weigh such revelations as forcefully as I judge Bamford's undeniable investigative journalism about criminally-manufactured pretexts against Cuba or Julianna Goldman's balanced report this week about the latest "Cuban mystery."

And by the way:

U. S. President Donald Trump does not own any property in Cuba, at least not yet. But he, of course, does own some magnificent Caribbean real estate such as the St. Martins' beachfront jewel shown above that he purchased in 2013 for $20 million.
