The Starvation Plan Is Now 62-YEARS Old!!
Today -- Friday, August 13th, 2021 -- if you Googled "Cuba News" you get the above three Top Headlines. The Washington-based The Hill indicates that President Biden is expanding on President Trump's genocide against Cuba because Biden wants to get Florida's 29 Electoral Votes for the Democratic Party that the Republican Trump won back in the 2016 election. The Miami Herald, obligated to only promote on extreme Counter Revolutionary measures against Cuba, heralds the fact the U. S. Blockade has pushed Cuba's struggle against COVID to "near collapse" and so the "U. S. wants to send vaccines." That, of course, is the typical and very blatant Miami Herald lie although, if the U. S. Blockade combined with COVID brought about the recapture of Cuba, surely the U. S. would then quickly send vaccines, businesses, tourists, and billions of dollars to return the island to the 1950s when the U. S. and the Mafia supported and grossly benefited from the brutal Batista dictatorship. Then, thirdly, today's headline above by the London-backed Reuters shows some compassion for the families on the island on August 13-2021 as Cuban families are reeling from the twin perils of the Blockade and COVID.
Today -- 13.08.2021 -- teary-eyed Dr. Francisco Duran is providing the Cuban people the continuing bad news -- 85 more deaths {fallecidos} in the past 24 hours from COVID and 8,312 new positive cases in the past 24 hours. With up to 100 deaths a day in recent weeks, Cuba's total of COVID deaths has suddenly risen to 3,842. And no, the U. S. is not sending vaccines to the island to help Cubans but instead the U. S. blocked Cuba's desire to purchase 30,000 much-needed syringes from a company in Sweden. Perhaps the Miami Herald should report that.
On August 13-2021 Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez is using Cuban television, the internet, the United Nations, and whatever means he can muster to "denounce the U. S. blockade" while the island is trying to cope with the pandemic.
While decent sources in the foreign media -- such as The Guardian in London -- can report fairly to the world about Cuba and the Blockade, the U. S. media rejoices about a handful of self-serving benefactors such as Democratic Senator Bob Menendez and Republican Senator Marco Rubio serving unchecked as the lucrative but genocidal dictators of America's Cuban policies. In the United States in August of 2021 only those who support the Embargo/Blockade of Cuba dominate the news media and the legal laws in Washington related to Cuba. That basic fact, I think, says much more about the U. S. in August of 2021 than it says about Cuba's attempt to survive.
These four Cuban girls in Cuba are, I think, far more precious than the people in the United States who support or condone the Embargo/Blockade that is trying to destroy the lives or at least the happiness of these four girls. For 62 years the U. S. Embargo-Blockade has tried to starve and deprive Cubans on the island to get them to rise up and overthrow their own Revolutionary government. It hasn't succeeded but, with the likes of Menendez & Rubio dictating Cuban laws, it appears the U. S. is willing to keep the attempted genocide in place for another 62 years. Meanwhile, since 1959 Cuba has provided free educations through college and free healthcare for all its citizens. And meanwhile, while the likes of Menendez & Rubio can use the U. S. media to claim there is no Embargo/Blockade against Cuba and that THEY are the ones helping Cubans on the island, the mothers of the four girls in Cuba that are shown above also have OPINIONS and perhaps one day the U. S. democracy will at least allow the opinions of mothers on the island to be heard, not just the opinions of Menendez's & Rubio's.
