U.S. Uses COVID-19 To Hurt Cuba

Americans Are Told To Accept It!!

At the Miami Herald, Nora Gamez Torres is a highly paid and high-profile "journalist." It seems that her prime job is two-fold -- to sanitize the Batista-Luciano dictatorship that brutalized Cuba during the 1950s while also pulverizing everyday Cubans on the island since the 1959 Revolution that chased the Batistiano-Mafiosi leaders to U. S. soil, primarily nearby Miami. Today -- March 28th, 2020 -- Nora Gamez Torres's latest article in the Miami Herald appears to herald and celebrate the Trump administration's obvious effort to take advantage of the Coronavirus pandemic to further punish the masses of 11.5 million everyday Cubans on the island. Her article today is entitled: "FOOD SHORTAGE, A DECREPIT ECONOMY, AND NOW THE CORONAVIRUS: HARD TIMES FOR CUBA." Of course, while celebrating this headline, Nora Gamez Torres doesn't have the integrity or sympathy to report that Cuba is the ONLY nation in the whole world that has had TO TRY, since 1962 to this very day, to survive history's cruelest and longest Economic Embargo ever imposed by a powerful nation against a small nation. And, of course, Nora Gamez Torres is not about to mention that back in 2019 the Batistiano-aligned Trump administration activated Title 3 of the Helms-Burton Act, which Cuban extremists in the U. S. have used since 1996 to, First of all, lavish themselves with tons of tax dollars while, SECONDLY, to legally pulverize masses of everyday Cubans on the island. If she had the courage or integrity to write about Title 3, Nora Gamez Torres could explain that prior to Trump's activation of Title 3 that EVEN President George W. Bush considered Title 3 to be TOO GENOCIDAL to inflict on masses of Cubans on the island. Thus, I believe that Nora Gamez Torres's latest article today continues to insult both Democracy and Journalism.

For Nora Gamez Torres and the Miami Herald to salivate about the "decrepit economy" and the "hard times" Cuba is having as it copes with the Coronavirus shames the USA and Democracy FAR more than it shames Cuba, I think. And while salivating, don't expect the likes of Nora Gamez Torres and the Miami Herald to have the courage to tell the truth about a few selected Cubans and their lawyers in Miami also salivating by using Title III of Helms-Burton to get even richer than they already are while also shamefully using Title III to further strangle the life of the pugnacious island, meaning the use of genocide to persuade and induce everyday Cubans on the island to rise up against their revolutionary government, which is not perfect but at least its not another U.S.-backed FULGENCIO BATISTA/LUCKY LUCIANO/MEYER LANSKY government.

Pre-revolutionary Cuba -- a Mafia-U.S. crime.

Pre-revolutionary Cuba's crime story.

{The photo above shows the gold telephone that A & T gave Cuban dictator Fulgencio Batista in 1957. Major U. S. companies lavished Batista with gifts and money in the form of kickpacks so rich Americans could also partake in the wholesale robbery of Cuba along with the Batista-Mafia dictatorship. That was the reason that the U. S. government supported the Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba as OPPOSED to decently supporting a Democracy in Cuba. Of course, Nora Gomez Torres and the USA's litany of propagandists posing as "journalists" will never write about such things as Batista's Gold Telephone from A & T in 1957, a truly sweet and historic kickback. But with all the loot the Mafia and U. S. businessmen raked-in in Cuba in the 1950s, the unconscious murders of children supposedly to quell dissent ended up fueling the LONG-SHOT revolution, along with the utter disregard concerning the extreme poverty of the Cuban peasants even as pre-revolutionary Cuba was being hailed as one of the richest and most advanced Latin American nations. That is like saying that Bill Gates and the man living under a bridge without a dime or peso to his name are together worth $75 billion dollars. All these decades after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, U. S. "journalists" like Nora Gamez Torres pretend that the dastardly murders of Cuban children had nothing to do with the revolution in Cuba, nor that the total neglect by the rich Batista-Mafia regime of the health and educational needs of everyday Cubans played a massive secondary role. Yet, the vital marches of Cuban mothers protesting the murders of their children...their "ninos"...as well as the extreme poverty in Batista's Cuba are well documented by history, and by photos as well as memories}. In 2020, if Americans are wondering why in the hell Little Havana in Miami has not re-captured Havana AFTER ALL THESE DECADES, there is an overriding REASON, I truly believe. As a Democracy-loving American, I have been to Cuba and I believe I learned WHY, and it is because of those memories of Batista's Cuba.
