Mary Anastasia O'Grady Is A LIAR

Her Lies Hurt Innocents!!
{UPDATED for Saturday, May 25th, 2019}
     For many years, posturing herself as a Latin American expert journalist, Mary Anastasia O'Grady has primarily advocated for the evisceration of Cuba and the starvation of the Cuban people on the island while heralding any and all terrorist attacks or sanctions that punish innocent Cuban women and children the most. Pointing out a prime weakness of the U. S. democracy -- a propaganda-driven mainstream media -- O'Grady is an Editorial kingpin at the Rupert Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal. The O'Grady bald-faced lies about Cuba continued this week with a gross WSJ Editorial entitled: "The U. S. Bears No Blame As Cuba Starves On Its Policies." That is a typical O'Grady lie and she assumes anyone who believes any aspect of it is an idiot. The shameful lie included this line: "Cuba's Commerce Minister Betsy Diaz asserts that the U. S. embargo forces the island to buy food from distant markets, which raise prices." Hiding behind her lies and her mansion in the non-sanctioned USA, O'Grady assails any decent person who opposes the starvation of women and children in Cuba by self-serving criminals who benefit from such cruelty.
    For a sanctimonious liar like Mary Anastasia O'Grady to attack a decent woman like Betsy Diaz reflects the gutlessness of elitist miscreants hiding behind journalistic propaganda, in this case the once-respected WSJ that is the third most circulated newspaper in the USA. Betsy Diaz is Cuba's Commerce Minister and she works tirelessly to keep "the Title 3 of Helms-Burton from doing its job, which is to starve Cuban children that I am responsible for." Betsy Diaz epitomizes decency.
     Mary Anastasia O'Grady's lies epitomize indecency. The U. S. embargo against Cuba, condemned 191-to-0 in the UN in 2016 during the last year of the decent Obama presidency, started in 1962 for the purpose of, according to de-classified U. S. documentsstarving, depriving, and making miserable the lives of Cubans to induce them to overthrow their revolutionary government. Much stronger and larger nations...say a Canada or a Mexico...could not have survived such sanctions so rigorously, gutlessly, and continuously enforced for six decades and still counting. For Mary Anastasia O'Grady and her ilk to say that "The U. S. Bears No Blame As Cuba Starves From Its Policies" IS A BLATANT AND BALD-FACED LIE. Moreover, it shames journalism and democracy. And Mary Anastasia O'Grady is gutless for attacking Cuba's extremely decent and child-loving Betsy Diaz, the person on the island who is trying so hard to keep O'Grady's Batistiano-Mafiosi friends from starving or eviscerating Cuban children on a very vulnerable island.
    When an elitist and unchecked WSG propagandist can gleefully celebrate the "starving" of children in a small nation due to a gross criminal act from a powerful country, democracy-loving Americans should weep. A pompous, indecent Mary Anastasis O'Grady is nothing more and nothing less than  a lying propagandist who happens to have a powerful forum to spew her lies. She harps endlessly that starvation-like sanctions by the Superpower U. S. are designed to help, not starve, children on the island of Cuba, claiming that U. S. sanctions have no role in the current food shortages on the island. O'Grady is a cruel, shameless, unmitigated liar. Of course, O'Grady doesn't have the guts to compare Norway's NON-SANCTIONED Socialism with the standard of life in the United States. But the comparison is listed below.
    A cruel liar like Mary Anastasia O'Grady in the United States of America can overwhelm decent child-loving people in smaller nations -- like Betsy Diaz in Cuba and Carlos Alvarado in Venezuela.
   Venezuela's Health Minister, Carlos Alvarado, Tuesday was in Geneva where he told the World Health Organization that U. S. sanctions are "direly harming our country's women and children, and that is the purpose of the sanctions as a part of overthrowing our government." Alvarado said, "The U. S. has frozen $5.6 billion of Venezuela assets, including in the Bank of England and Citibank, and turns Venezuela assets over to U.S.-friendly opposition factions. We can certainly say that the main health problem in Venezuela is the criminal blockade that makes us victims of the United States' imperialist designs on Latin America and the Miami Cubans designs to retake Cuba."
     While the U. S. democracy assists small but vicious elements to use starvation and deprivation tactics against Cuba and Venezuela, it opens the way for Communist superpower China to exert its influence in the opposite direction. The photo above shows another large Chinese plane off-loading massive medical supplies for Venezuela.
    If United States President Donald Trump wasn't restrained by China, the United States would have installed a U.S.-friendly government in Venezuela as far back as January. Indeed, if there is to be a regime-change in Venezuela, it should be brokered under the auspices of the United Nations, not war-mongering USA right-wingers.
     Meanwhile, Trump's trade war with China is shooting the U. S. in its own feet because so much of the U. S. economy, not to mention the U. S. debt, is tied to mammoth economic relations with COMMUNIST China.
    With the Trump administration surrounded by extreme war-mongers targeting Cuba, Venezuela, Nicaragua, and Iran -- while trying real hard to not tangle with China or Russia -- the USA is mostly in need of a decent and smart President, but not Trump, as well as decent and smart journalists, but not the likes of......................
    When it is the USA...and not, say, China...that is involved in trying to explain why trying to starve children in Cuba or Venezuela is necessary, perhaps it is time for decent U. S. citizens to reclaim their Democracy. As for me, I am a lifelong Democracy-loving American Republican but starving children in Cuba or bombing children in Yemen is not my cup of tea. Thus, Trump in the White House or O'Grady at the Wall Street Journal, I believe, are corrections that need to be made for the sake of America and Democracy, not just for innocent children who happen to live in targeted smaller nations.
      Journalists like O'Grady and politicians like Trump & Rubio in a powerful country trying to starve precious and beloved Cuban children like Mariana and Diego shames the United States and Democracy. I await O'Grady's next Editorial in the Wall Street Journal explaining why IT IS BOTH PROPER AND NECESSARY for Republicans in the United States to engage in such genocidal practices.
