Thugs Sanctioning Poor People

Decisions Not Made By Good People!!
     This photo of U. S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo was taken a few days when he held a News Briefing primarily designed to levy more sanctions on Cuba. This, of course, has been a regular occurrence during the three years top officials of the Trump administration have permitted self-serving anti-Cuban zealots such as Marco Rubio, Mario Diaz-Balart, and Mauricio Claver-Carone to lead the latest U. S. effort to overthrow the Cuban Revolution that...way back on January 1, 1959...overthrew the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba. Based on the U. S. government's exact transcript of this latest Mike Pompeo diatribe against Cuba delineating the nearby Superpower's ongoing efforts to annihilate  Cuba, here are the exact opening words at this particular Pompeo News Briefing:
            "Good morning, everyone. I want to comment this morning on a few terrorism-related matters, a terrorist regime, and a couple of other items as well. I also have a a short announcement on Cuba. Today, the United States is taking action to prevent Cubametales from circumventing U. S. sanctions. Cubametales is a Cuban state-run company and the primary facilitator of illegal oil imports from Venezuela. To further contain their action, we are putting sanctions on another Cuban company, Corporacion Panamericana S. A., pursuant to Executive Order 13850."
         Secretary of State Mike Pompeo giving top prominence to little Cuba at this latest News Briefing is not unusual for him but is a typical insult to the American people, I think, considering how other domestic and foreign "items" he could have placed ahead his agenda to continue an asinine Little Havana-initiated genocide against the people of Cuba, and not just the Cuban government. After already using its unmatched economic and military might to influence or scare-off other nations from dealing with Cuban imports or exports, Pompeo on behalf of the Trump Administration and the denizens in Little Havana has already sanctioned just about any Cuban enterprise that zealots like Rubio, Diaz-Balart, and Claver-Carone can think of. In the opening statement above, Pompeo added two Cuban companies vital to secure enough oil to keep lights and other power on the island. Of course, in recent weeks the Rubio/Diaz-Balart/Claver-Carone forces have surely taken glee in learning about blackouts and food shortages on the island, as well as many other lesser conveniences just as the Cuban government having to shut down 47 buses the citizens on the island depend on for their free or cheap transportation. Pompeo and his Cuban advisers such as Rubio/Diaz-Balart/Claver-Carone, of course, are well aware that prime victims of their cruelty are the most vulnerable women and children on the island.
     This week Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez replied to U. S. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo with these exact words: "The American Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo, calls his embassy in Havana to regularly intervene in the internal affairs of our sovereign country that will not allow it." Then Rodriguez used Cubavision International News, Agencia Prensa Latina, and Twitter to wonder why and how Pompeo has so much time to spend hurting people in Cuba instead spending more of his time to spend on: "The impeachment problems in Washington not to mention his other foreign problems all around the world with all the proxy wars the U. S. is involved in not to mention all the coups or regime-changes the U. S. continues to promote."
       When a Superpower allows a Marco Rubio to dictate its "CUBAN POLICY" to suit his economic and political whims, it says a helluva more about the Batistiano-BELITTLING of the U. S. democracy than it says about a voracious Superpower trying for six decades to exact a regime-change in a little island nation. And when a Rubio is not held accountable by the U. S. media and by U. S. citizens, the image above evokes visions of what Batistiano-blighted greed can do to the world's strongest country, eroding the aura of invincibility that earlier far greater Americans created when they carved out their experiment in governance. Crafted lovingly and stupendously by the Founding Fathers and then fiercely defended for 230 years by patriotic Americans, the U. S. Democracy should now not be left to the whims of Rubio-types.
      Elderly women in a small nation, like these two Cuban neighbors sharing a scarce egg, should not be forever targeted by unchecked rich miscreants in a large, rich, Superpower country. If policies in America that concern whether or not these two women should be deprived or starved are made, those decisions should be made by decent people and the America people should be told honestly who is making such decisions and why!!!! And sadly, today neither of those things are not done today in the hallowed United States of America and, frankly, have not been done since the Cuban Revolution in January of 1959 resulted in creating the still-thriving Batistiano government on United States soil after the greedy, cruel Batista-Mafia dictatorship was overthrown in Cuba.
      The image above shows Marco Rubio using the mainstream media to APPLAUD his leading role in starving and depriving innocent Cubans on their vulnerable island. While such things  may benefit Rubio-and-his-ilk economically and politically, the prime culprits, I believe, are the mainstream U. S. media that does not have the guts to hold Rubio-types accountable for actions many decent people consider legalized genocide.
     Clearly genocidal for Cubans on the island, Helms-Burton is also, of course, extremely lucrative for Cubans in Miami's Little Havana section.
           Little Havana is already flush with Cuban millionaires and billionaires, but the Trump administration has legalized Title 3 of Helms-Burton to make sure there are many more via lawsuits in federal Florida courtrooms.
           For sure, Trump's "CUBA POLICY" is far more illegal and nefarious than his policies involving Ukraine and other nations but, because the left-wing U. S. media that is trying so hard to impeach Trump IS SO AFRAID of Little Havana, not even the left-wing U. S. media has the guts to even mention Trump's genocidal CUBA POLICY. In other words, little Cuba since the 1950s has said far more about the United States than it says about Cuba, and that's especially true in the Age of Trump.
         The Commander and Chief of the world's greatest military power, President Trump could afford to give up a "Thumbs Up" when he was apprised that little Cuba has been holding military drills {Lower-right} since Trump enacted Title 3 of Helms-Burton. Little Cuba, of course, doesn't expect to win an all-out war against Trump, but it thinks that a do-or-die Second Cuban Revolution on Cuban soil is a far better alternative than capitulation.
         Of course, an Obama-like END THE EMBARGO ON CUBA policy by the United States would be better than starvation, a war, or another revolution in the little pugnacious Caribbean nation. But in the world's strongest democracy, that will not be allowed as long as Little Havana dictates U. S. Cuban policy, which means Little Havana's Cubans keep getting richer while also punishing Cubans on the island while also waiting for the day the U. S. finally recaptures their old homeland for them. Meanwhile, Americans are not  supposed to remember that the last time the U. S. dominated Cuba {back in the 1950s} the U. S. supported the massively brutal and thieving Batista-Mafia dictatorship led by four top Mafiosi leaders known to history as Fulgencio Batista, Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky, and Santo Trafficante Jr.
        Even as the rest of the world knows all about the U. S. support of Mafia-ruled Cuba in the 1950s, Americans have been programmed to pretend that, of course, the U. S. made sure that the nearby island HAD A WORLD-CLASS DEMOCRACY the last time the U. S. dominated the island. Truth be known, as historians such as Enrique Cirules documented, the U.S.-backed Mafiosi leaders in Havana didn't choose to hang around to fight the charging rebels who had just captured the key city of Santa Clara before racing to Havana on the eve of January 1, 1959. Unfortunately, still supported by the U. S. government and especially led by the CIA, the Batistianos...beginning in January of 1959...created their new capital of Little Havana on U. S. soil in the heart of Miami, Florida.
