Trump Targets Cuba Anew

Aligned with Batistianos at UN!
{Updated: Thursday, September 21st, 2017}

       America's President Donald Trump made his first speech at the United Nations Tuesday. It was a confrontational "America first" tirade that lasted 41 minutes.

       Not unexpectedly, Trump drew some gasps at the UN when he said he may be forced to "totally destroy" North Korea. He also threatened Iran and Syria but conspicuously omitted criticism of superpowers China and Russia. He earlier had mentioned he was considering "military action" in Venezuela but at the UN, while expounding on that threat, he didn't use such explicit words. Surprisingly, he mentioned Cuba five times, each time in extremely derogatory and threatening tones. The Miami Herald, fronting an article written by Franco Ordonez, quickly blared this headline: "Trump Threatens Venezuela and Puts Cuba on Notice." In his bombastic tone, he said, "Cuba is delivering only anguish and failure to its people. We will not lift sanctions against Cuba until the government in Havana makes fundamental changes." In the 41-minute UN speech, Trump used the words "sovereign" or "sovereignty" 21 times. What he meant in regards to Cuba is very, very clear: Cuba must fundamentally change by surrendening its sovereignty and returning its fate to the Batista-Mafia remnants in Miami and in the U. S. Congress. That, of course, is the crowd that the Cuban Revolution chased to American soil.

      This photo at the UN shows Trump huddling with his Ambassador to the UN Nikki Haley. Any Cuban watcher should have concluded long ago that his appointment of Haley clearly signaled that Trump would turn over his Cuban policy to Haley's best political friend -- the counter-revolutionary U. S. Senator from Miami Marco Rubio.

      The most ambitious of Trump's appointments is Nikki Haley. She gave up her position as Governor of South Carolina only because she believes the higher national profile as UN Ambassador will expedite her path to the presidency. She caters to Trump now but she doesn't like him and she will undercut and double-cross Trump in a eyelash when the opportunity presents itself, and that may be sooner than later.

     During the heated Republican presidential campaign in 2016, as the Governor of South Carolina, Nikkie Haley campaign wildly for Marco Rubio. In that process both Haley and Rubio mocked and assailed Trump unmercifully. But now Trump is President and, as blatant turncoats, they will pretend to be working with Trump while scheming to destroy him. It is known that when Haley leaves her UN post in New York to travel to Washington, she mostly huddles with the ultimate schemer Rubio.

        Nikki Haley's love for Marco Rubio is eternal and well known in Washington's political circles. That's bad news for Cuba but worse news for Trump because there are two foxes in Trump's hen-house, ready to feast when the time is right and that figures to be well before Trump's first term ends in 2020. Trump is facing a daily and unending media coup being perpetrated relentlessly by omnipotent coup-mongers led by NBC-MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, the New York Times, and the Washington Post. That's rather formidable, but it's not as big a threat to Trump as Haley and Rubio.

    To demonstrate how much Nikki Haley hates Trump and loves Cuban-American counter-revolutionaries, especially Marco Rubio, the instant her beloved Marco Rubio was unceremoniously booted out of the Republican presidential primary by Trump, Haley then campaigned furiously for Senator Ted Cruz against Trump till Trump also eliminated presidential wannabe Cruz. Then, stupidly and probably fatally, President Trump talked with Haley about her becoming Secretary of State. She declined, believing she wasn't prepared for that. But she accepted the position as UN Ambassador as her path to the presidency. Political insiders now believe she feels fortified enough to replace Rex Tillerson as Secretary of State, the most powerful cabinet position in the Trump presidency, although to date Haley has made the UN job the most gratuitous for her with a profile on foreign affairs already higher than Tillerson's. But Cruz is only Haley's second favorite counter-revolutionary Cuban. Rubio is and will forever be her first choice. She envisions both herself and Rubio as future Presidents with either of them still young enough for a Vice Presidential stint.

       At the UN Tuesday Nikki Haley was the obedient fox in President Trump's hen-house. In the above photo the dour expression on First Lady Melania's face might have been because of the nearness of Haley, whom Melania does not like and doesn't trust. The First Lady speaks five languages including German, French and Italian. And her instincts regarding Haley and Rubio are also superior to Trump's as he dangerously assumes his White House hens are safe and the two foxes are his pals.

       At the United Nations next month the Batistiano-loving Nikki Haley will cast a vehement "No!" vote for the United States against ending the U. S. embargo against Cuba. That decision has been made and it will be announced prior to October.

      By contrast, the decent President Obama's Ambassador to the United Nations was the brilliant and kind-hearted Samatha Power, a true and experienced U. S. diplomat.

      On October 26, 2016, in a heart-wrenching speech at the UN, Ambassador Samantha Power explained why the Obama administration could not support the U. S. government's own Congress-directed embargo against the "suffering" Cuban people.

     Last year the more decent Obama administration wasn't nasty enough to vote in the UN to support the embargo against Cuba that has been in effect since 1962 and is considered the longest and cruelest embargo ever imposed by a powerful nation against a weak nation. Thus, last October the UN vote condemning the embargo was, as shown above, 191-to-0. The U. S. abstained and thus so did Israel, which is dependent on massive economic and military support from the United States. Again next month 193 nations will vote on the embargo. This time Haley's vote and Israel's vote will guarantee there will not be a 191-to-0 unanimity this year. Based on the Batistiano-mandated Helms-Burton Act, only Congress can eliminate the embargo and a mere handful of Batistianos control the 535-member Congress as far as Cuba is concerned. If and when they control the White House, the goal of capturing America before they re-capture Cuba will finally be chaotically complete, and the current generation of Americans is neither brave enough nor patriotic enough to prevent it.

      Cuba calls the U. S. embargo a genocidal blockade. For over half-a-century it has severely hurt two generations of totally innocent Cubans, such as the ones above. 

    The anti-Cuba/anti-Venezuela boondoggles at the UN this week reveal how the Trump presidency is sandwiched between's Miami's extremist contributions to the U. S. Congress -- Marco Rubio and Mario Diaz-Balart. The Miami counter-revolutionaries, of course, don't  have to explain to intimidated democracy-lovers that over two million Cuban-Americans in South Florida, a decisive majority, favor normal relations with Cuba but it seems only radical, self-serving extremists are eligible to be elected to Congress. Rubio, with stalwarts like Nikki Haley in his hip-pocket, is positioned to dictate Trump's upcoming assaults on Cuba as well as his threatened "military action" against Venezuela, and that would be a Miami-parlay reminiscent of the terrorist bombing of Cubana Flight 455 and the short-lived 2002 coup in Venezuela, with both events Miami-related. The first lofty praise of Trump's Miami-directed UN threat against Cuba came from Mario Diaz-Balart who was quickly quoted in the aforementioned Miami Herald as lauding Trump for "dealing a clear message of freedom against the tyranny of despotic regimes." Of course, speaking of despotic regimes, Mario's father was a key Minister in the Batista-Mafia regime in Cuba before he helped make Little Havana in Miami the regime's new capital back in 1959.

     Mario Diaz-Balart's older brother, Havana-born Lincoln, preceded him in the U. S. Congress form Miami and another brother, Jose, is an anchor at NBC-MSNBC where every anchor and pundit are required to be anti-Trump extremists, not broadcast journalists. But impeaching Trump to pave the way for Rubio and the Diaz-Balarts would simply be replacing an anti-Cuban President with a counter-revolutionary Commander-in-Chief who likely would almost immediately try to make up for the 1961 Bay of Pigs attack, which Revolutionary Cuba famously repelled.

    Cuba's UN Ambassador, Anazansi Rodriguez Camejo, said, "Neither Trump nor his ambassador here have any right to lecture any Latin American nation about despots when the United States' history, so well known to every Latin American nation, is one of supporting wicked dictatorships from Batista to Trujillo to Pinochet, and that includes multiple coups that overthrew democratically elected governments to put their despots in place. So what's just another American coup against a Latin American nation?"

      At the UN, Anazansi Rodriguez Camejo admits her heart is back in Cuba and "more concerned with hurricane recovery than I am with Trump and his Miami Cubans."

     The President of the Havana Defense Council, Mercedes Lopez Acea, updated the ongoing recovery from the devastation left by Hurricane Irma: "Transmission networks have been restored in Havana. Also, work on repairing the electrical network in the capital is almost completed. We sent 200 lineman from Havana to Villa Clara province to restore electrical services. But the damage is so immense to private homes. In 2008 three consecutive hurricanes -- Ike, Gustau and Paloma -- damaged or destroyed over 200,000 homes. Irma was so big it was like that in its ferocity."

      Understandably, Cubans right now are more concerned with coping with the Hurricane Irma damage than with the upcoming damage they expect from President Trump and what Anazansi Rodriguez Camejo called Trump's "Miami Cubans."

      The quotation by Anazansi Rodriguez Camejo at the United Nations this week rekindles memories of the historic quotation by Cuba's greatest revolutionary heroine Celia Sanchez: "We rebels...get far too much credit for winning the Revolution. Our enemies deserve most of the credit, for being greedy cowards and idiots."

And by the way:
