US Uses Pandemic to Hurt Cuba

Propagandized Americans SAY "OK"!!
      As of today -- Thursday, April 9th, 2020 -- Cuba announced it has 515 confirmed cases of the Coronavirus with 1,860 people hospitalized, 28 sent home after recovering, and 15 deaths.
       Earlier this week Cuba's Public Health Minister Jose Angel Portal Miranda announced that 25 health workers have come down with Coronavirus. That includes 14 doctors, 8 nurses, two technicians, and 1 ambulance driver. Back in 2019 -- after turning the USA's Cuban policies over ONLY to self-serving and unchecked Cuban-American extremists such as Marco Rubio, Mauricio Claver-Carone, and the Diaz-Balart brother, President Trump barred Dr. Portal from attending a conference of the Pan American Health Organization in Washington. This is the Cuba that Caribbean nations like Jamaica and Barbados have begged, successfully, for Cuba to send them some of Cuba's excess and renowned doctors to help them fight the Coronavirus...just as rich nations like Italy and Spain have also begged for and received brigades of Cuban doctors to fight COVID-19. This week Dr. Portal said: "Yes, we are aware that Trump's USA is using the Coronavirus as an excuse to further try to totally strangle the Cuban economy. I and others mostly blame the American people for allowing it to happen. But we no longer expect the American people to try to stop such genocide as the U. S. economic and military power  tries to destroy us while it also restrains other nations from doing anything about it either. But across the length and breadth of this island, Cubans are in an admirable and shared battle to survive this crisis...and survive the USA."
      This photo shows an important Cuban doctor, Dr. Liz Caballaro {on the right}, with two medical students. They and 18,000 medical students and doctors like them are going across the island to go door-to-door to check on Cubans during the pandemic. Dr. Caballaro said, "Yes, we are doing all we can. We understand that the unique power of the United States during the Trump era will do everything it can to use the COVID-19 crisis to destroy us. That doesn't mean that we won't stop trying to do our jobs until the end of this crisis and until more decent people are in charge of the United States."
          Cuban mothers on the island have been famed since 1959 for protecting their children come hell or high water -- from forces as such as hurricanes or from the United States.
      Starting in 1952 black-and-white historic photos like this predicated the Cuban Revolution by LOUDLY EXPRESSING the purpose for overthrowing the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship. Cuban mothers like these bravely took to the streets, as their poster above proclaimed, to denounce the "murders of our children" by the Batista-Mafia dictatorship. The murders were designed to quell opposition to the Batistianos and Mafiosi who were raping and robbing the island at will. WHY, you ask, did the United States support the Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba in the 1950s as opposed to demanding that Cuba have a world-class democracy, which the U. S. at the time had the power to create??? The answer: Right-wing Republicans decided that rich U. S. businessmen could partake in the rape and robbery of Cuba in such a brutal DICTATORSHIP while a DEMOCRACY would want the island's resources to be largely beneficial to the masses of Cuban people. So the black-and-white photo...and MANY others like them...spawned the Cuban Revolution in 1952 and 1953 that, incredibly, overthrew the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship on January 1, 1959. Unfortunately, the Batista-Mafia dictatorship quickly resurrected itself in nearby Miami beginning in January-1959 and soon created a new capital, Little Havana, on U. S. soil in the heart of Miami.
    The money from the Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba easily and quickly overwhelmed Miami economically and politically beginning in 1959. That plight on the U. S. democracy has continued to this day in April of 2020 because, incredibly, Revolutionary Cuba for 6+ decades has somehow managed to resist the brutal, mammoth, and unchecked efforts of Little Havana to recapture Cuba. Of course, especially because of its economic and political alliance with the powerful Bush dynasty, Little Havana's grip on the U. S. democracy has been extended to the U. S. Congress and to virtual control of all Republican presidential administrations.
       A great author named Marc Frank is perhaps the best chronicler of the USA's alliance with the Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Havana in the 1950s as well as the USA's alliance with Little Havana since 1959. 
       The great Marc Frank, including being a renowned author, is also a great topical journalist. Because he works for the London-based Reuters News Agency, Marc Frank can truthfully write about Cuba. His Reuters article this week is entitled: "CUBA'S REPUTATION AS MEDICAL POWERHOUSE TESTED." Marc Frank wrote: "Cubans in Havana applaud the country's medical staff in their battle against Coronavirus. All but bankrupted by U. S. economic sanctions, the Caribbean island nation is grappling with the U. S. threat...while battling both Coronavirus and the United States."
     Since President Trump turned America's Cuban policies TOTALLY OVER TO vicious and self-serving Little Havana zealots like the unchecked Marco Rubio and Mario Diaz-Balart, the 6-decade-old U. S. Embargo against Cuba has evolved into a genocidal Blockade against the masses of everyday Cubans on the island. And exacerbating this insult to America and to Democracy is the fact that the intimidated and propagandized mainstream U. S. media as well as the American people themselves are too afraid to admit their once-renowned Democracy is now shamefully committing genocide against masses of innocent people on a vulnerable nearby sovereign nation.
