It Must Be APPROVED By Little Havana?
This week -- on May 26th, 2020 -- the massive New York Times had a major editorial entitled: "America Is Obsessed Witih Cuba. But What Do We Know About Its CITIZENS?" Interesting. The answer to the ? is...not much, unless Americans are allowed to have the freedom to go to Cuba and see it for themselves, which Counter Revolutionary zealots headquartered in Little Havana {Miami} and in the U. S. Congress deny or greatly restrict so as to keep control of the U. S. narrative about how GREAT the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship was in Cuba prior to 1959, till it then was chased to nearby Miami by the Cuban Revolution, and how TERRIBLE Revolutionary Cuba has been for all of these last 6+ decades. White the revolution changed Cuba drastically, it has changed the United States even more. That's because, while still supported massively by the world's economic and military Superpower, the Batistianos have, incredibly, not been able to recapture the island. Yet, they have grown incredibly richer with U. S. tax dollars and with U. S. laws, such as Helms-Burton, that they have been allowed to write themselves. In that milieu, after a revelatory visit to Cuba as a Democracy-loving American, I take the latest New York Times editorial about Cuba as evidence that even the extreme left-wing mainstream media in the U. S. is much too afraid to write honestly about Cuba because it simply is too afraid of Little Havana. That includes the New York Times, which began publishing on Sept. 18th, 1851, and for well over a century was a prime and influential news source. Recently, its undying determination to overturn the 2016 election of President Trump reveals the Times has evolved into a slanted purveyor of propaganda, the same as NBC, MSNBC, CNN, ABC, CBS, and the Washington Post...a conspiratorial group of media left-wing extremists that control about 90% of the U. S. media, with the other 10% largely consisting of right-wing extremists that are just as dangerous but not nearly as powerful. THEREFORE, when you can no longer depend even on the iconic New York Times, Americans must realize they no longer can trust their media, which since 1776 had been a cornerstone and pillar of the U. S. democracy. So the New York Times this week posits that "America Is Obessed With Cuba" even as many other dangers such as a pandemic, global warming that is rising oceans to drastic levels, proxy wars, and threats of more proxy wars, etc. While the NY Times this week headlines about America's obsession with Cuba, it is not courageous enough to speak the truth, which is this: Little Havana ZEALOTS Remain Obsessed with Cuba While The Rest Of America Is Obsessed With COVID-19 And A MYRIAD Of Other Issues. However, the mammoth NY Times May 26-2020 editorial about Cuba would have been honest and courageous if it had pointed out that Little Havana's decades-old obsession with recapturing Cuba has reached deep into the bowels of the U. S. democracy, even threatening to consume it in the manner hungry buzzards consume a newly discovered carcass.
AND SPEAKING OF THE MEDIA, in the Western World there are four major News Agencies: New York-based AP; London-based Reuters; Paris-based AFP; and Madrid-based EFE. The best News Agency in the world is Reuters. Being based across the Atlantic in London, Reuters is competent enough and courageous enough to report concisely and honestly about Cuba.

If you are an American and Little Havana will not allow you to visit Cuba to judge it for yourself, Reuters News is your best source for knowing what is happening on the island and how it impacts the USA, which is prodigious although HOW PRODIGIOUS is not reported by the U. S. media. But Marc Frank, Sarah Marsh, Nelson Acosta, and other Reuters journalists courageously report from the island, without indulging in either pro-Cuban or anti-Cuban propaganda. Today -- May 27, 2020 -- Marc Frank sent this article around the world: "Online Shopping Highlights Cuba's Inequality In Time Of Coronavirus." With his usual very precise insight and honesty, Marc Frank today gave us unbiased insight such as..."The pandemic has halted tourism in Cuba, slowed remittances and increased shipping costs...decisive government action has reduced new coronavirus cases to less than 15 per day...the Cuban state is seeking to encourage online shopping...yet many Cubans simply cannot afford the services...the government began setting important consumer goals for either dollars or the local equivalent, the convertible peso..."
As a respected author regarding revelations about Cuba, Marc Frank as a journalist works for London-based Reuters, which means he has the freedom to write insightful and honest articles about Cuba. In my opinion, U. S. journalists should have the same FREEDOM that the great Marc Frank has...but Little Havana has the power not to allow that in the USA.
In 2020 Cuba has the right to have Havana as its capital city. But the United States doesn't have the right to have Little Havana ACTING as its capital city or to continue ASPIRING to be the capital city of the United States.
