They Return To Dictate Cuban Policies!
Reappearing like a Ghost from the Bush Dynasty's Past, the Newsweek cover above from the Year 2002 should be dusted off and carefully studied to understand what is happening, from Latin America's standpoint, in the Year 2019. The 2002 cover story concerned "BUSH'S POINT MAN" Otto Reich having been the POINT MAN of President George W. Bush's 2002 coup in Caracas that briefly overthrew Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. Now in February of 2019 Otto Reich, the insatiable Cuba-born Counter Revolutionary zealot, is one of President Donald Trump's POINT MEN in the coup that is about to overthrow Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro, who was doomed anyway because of the dastardly economic conditions in oil-rich Venezuela. So, having coup-mongering, Cuban-born zealots like Otto Reich involved, even behind the scenes, in ousting Maduro in 2019 highlights the gross arrogance and stupidity of the crowd directing Trump's incredibly CUBAN-INSPIRED Latin American ventures. But the prime point I hereby make is this: Since the Eisenhower-Nixon administration in the 1950s, all Republican administrations, especially the three Bush dynasty terms, have been 100% linked to the Batista-Mafia Cuban dictatorship and its aftermaths...and that includes Cuban extremists from Orlando Bosch to Mafia kingpins like Lucky Luciano. So, it should surprise no one that the Bush dynasty Cuban zealots resurface in EVERY REPUBLICAN ADMINISTRATION, including Trump's, and while Republicans are not in the White House their anti-Cuban endeavors are restricted to such things as fund-raising, lobbying, and anti-Cuban propaganda.
The extreme power of Cuban-born Counter Revolutionaries became indelible during one year, 1976, when George H. W. Bush, was CIA Director and then the 8 years G.H.W. Bush was Vice President in the two-term Ronald Reagan administrations. That's when, as shown above, many Counter Revolutionary Cubans such as Otto Reich became extremely powerful and very wealthy Counter Revolutionaries.
Between the Bush #1 and Bush #2 presidencies, the likes of Otto Reich concentrated on financial and propaganda schemes against Cuba -- well aware that even the Democratic presidencies of Carter, Clinton, and Obama were not strong enough to ever hold them accountable even for extreme and self-serving anti-Cuban activities.
At a Republican National Convention, that is Otto Reich himself obviously making a point regarding what the Counter Revolutionary extremists expected from the Republican Party. Since the 1950s, Republican Party politicians have danced like puppets to whatever puppeteers like Otto Reich demanded. That's how Reich got to be the undisputed "Point Man" in President George W. Bush's 2002 coup that briefly ousted Venezuela's Cuba-friendly President Hugo Chavez. And, resurfacing in the current Republican administration, of course Reich is one of the Point Men making sure Venezuela's current Cuba-friendly President Nicolas Maduro is dethroned. In one week's time the BBC and The Guardian in London as well as the Associated Press, NY Times, Wall Street Journal, etc., have all had articles alluding to the fact that the resurfaced Bush ghosts fully expect to regain control of Cuba soon after Maduro is taken care of.
Of course, the conservative and right-wing media in the United States support everything zealots like Otto Reich espouse. But even more shamefully, even the liberal and left-wing U. S. media has been too afraid to challenge Counter Revolutionary Cuban zealots OR to hold enablers like the Bush dynasty accountable for enabling Otto Reich-types...and even Orlando Bosch-types, Luis Posada Carriles-types, etc...to carry out dastardly deeds against Cuba and, I believe, against Democracy.
Of course, the enablers who have empowered and enriched Counter Revolutionary Cubans have themselves been richly rewarded both economically and politically. For example, in the 2000 presidential election, the Democrat Al Gore got the most votes but the Republican George W. Bush was hand-delivered his two-term presidency thanks to the Cuban/Little Havana influence on Florida's decisive electoral votes. As indicated by the graphic above, the entire world watched day-after-day for the final, highly controversial election results to finally emerge from Florida. Not surprisingly, when at last rendered they put the Bush dynasty's George W. Bush in the White House...NOT the more qualified Al Gore who actually got the most nationwide votes. Once in office, of course, Bush #2 like Bush #1 danced to every Counter Revolutionary tune that Little Havana Counter Revolutionary zealots in Miami could concoct.
The image above lingers from 2000 as a part of U. S. history as it shows the famous "hanging chad" counting of the Florida votes that put another Bush, not Gore, in the White House. Since 1898, since 1952 and ESPECIALLY since 1959, the "hanging chads" are just one of thousands of examples that prove that Cuba says a lot more about the United States than Cuba says about Cuba.
TO BE CONTINUED:
Each day for the rest of this week I will add to this essay to document its theme, which is this: BUSH DYNASTY GHOSTS resurface during each Republican administration, including Trump's, to be afforded the economic and {even} military power of the United States in their 6-decades-old quest to recapture Cuba. I will resume later today with how the BUSH-anointed and Cuban-born Jorge Mas Canosa emerged as America's all-time most powerful Cuban dictator on United States soil, even more powerful than the U.S.-backed Batista was in Cuba. In the meantime, as always on Cubaninsider, I suggest you GOOGLE-search any name or event I mention so you can judge them or it for yourself.
