Cubans Starving Cubans

And Cubans Helping Cubans!!
{Wednesday: May 29th, 2019}
    Unchecked by most propagandized Americans and by the mostly intimidated mainstream U. S. media, Florida's two vicious and self-serving Senators -- Marco Rubio and Rick Scott -- are busy taking advantage of the current Republican White House to try to starve Cubans on the island and then eviscerate Revolutionary Cuba once and for all. This duo persuaded President Trump to activate Title 3, the starvation section of the cruel Helms-Burton Act -- and that was something that not even the Batistiano-aligned George W. Bush presidency would do. And, indeed, Title 3 has created shortages of food and medicine on the island, much to the glee of Rubio and Scott. Meanwhile, this pair is trying to persuade Trump to use the U. S. military to stop other countries from shipping supplies to Cuba.
    Although Rubio & Scott can dictate America's Cuban policies with Republican Trump in the White House, most Cuban-Americans are decent citizens and desire normal relations with Cuba, which President Obama almost brought to fruition and probably would have if Trump had not, incredibly, been elected President because of the amazing left-wing tilt of the other political Party -- the Democrats. Cuban Americans for Engagement {CAFE} represent the sentiments of most Cuban-Americans although, since 1959, a mere handful of Counter Revolutionary extremistss have largely dictated the USA's asinine, cruel, and genocidal Cuban policies.
     Even with Trump in the White House and anti-Cuban zealots like Rubio and Scott dictating the starvation of Cubans on the island, much more decent people like Ramon Jimenez have great compassion for Cubans on the island. Ramon also happens to be a key executive at American Airlines. He says, "Our experience has been very satisfactory dealing with Cuba. It has allowed us to continuing growing and increasing the number of operations and consolidate us as the airline that makes the most flights between the United States and Cuba. Therefore, our focus is to bet on the Cuban market in the long term."
    Thanks to the guidance of Ramon Jimenez, American Airlines earlier this month, back on May 3rd, began a new nighttime flight from Miami to Santiago de Cuba. Such things greatly help the two million Cuban-Americans in the Miami area...but the likes of Rubio and Scott rail against any such decency. Cuban-Americans like to fly to Cuba to visit family members; Cuban-Americans send several billion dollars of aid to Cubans on the island each year. Rubio and Scott want to end such flights and they, in fact, recently got Trump to greatly restrict any Cuban-American aid to Cuba. As Florida governor during the decency of President Obama, Scott vowed to punish any Florida business, such as the Florida docks run by moderate Cuban-Americans, if they did business with Cuba. Rubio wants to starve Cubans on the island to appease a handful of his extremist-backers in his hometown of Miami. Ramon Jimenez represents the strong majority in America that is trying to prevent the likes of Rubio and Scott from starving Cubans on the island.
     In 2019, 6+ decades after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution over the brutal Batista dictatorship gave birth to Little Havana in nearby Miami, the photo above is...I believe...an insult to America and to Democracy. When Florida's two Batistiano-loving U. S. Senators -- Rick Scott and Marco Rubio -- can dictate America's Cuban policies, it is every bit as harmful and detrimental to the United States as it is to targeted Cubans on the island.
The enigmatic U. S.-Cuba conundrum.
