Cubans Cry but some Americans Rejoice!!


    Today -- Saturday, May 14th, 2022 -- this Cuban mother in Havana is crying unabashedly, like many other Cubans on the island, after the explosion back on May 6th that has killed at least 45 people at the famed Saratoga Hotel in the heart of Havana.
      But these are the top Cuban-related headlines on May 14th-2022 in the U. S. and England. As you can see the U.S. Yahoo News and the U.K. Daily Mail are headlining about the tears of Jeff Bezos, an American who happens to be the world's richest man and whose father Miguel Bezos was, of course, born in Cuba...and now, like his son, is an ultra-powerful Counter Revolutionary U. S. citizen.
Miguel & Jeff Bezos, ultra-rich Americans.

    Jeff Bezos, the adopted son of Cuban-born Miguel Bezos, became the richest person in the whole world thanks to his Amazon gold mine and he has purchased an array of toys that include the iconic media giant Washington Post, now a prime opponent of the Revolutionary Cuba that overthrew the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship on January 1, 1959. As noted above on May 14th, 2022, the Jeff Bezos tears are about Cubans, like his father, who have richly immigrated to the U. S. since 1959.
    But in Cuba today -- May 14, 2022 -- the tears of Ana Maria Mari Machado were being shed for the 45 people who died, with many others critically wounded, by the May 6th explosion that destroyed the famed 5-star Saratoga Hotel in the heart of Havana. This photo was from Cuban television today as Ana Maria Mari Machado, an ultra-powerful Cuban Vice President, spoke...and cried...about the victims of the Saratoga Hotel disaster.
      This is a television image today -- May 14th, 2022 -- of Vice President Ana Maria Mari Machado speaking...and crying...at a session of the Cuban parliament regarding the victims of the Hotel Saratoga disaster.
   Americans, of course, since 1959 are programmed not to cry about Cubans on the island who are victims of Saratoga-like disasters or disastrous things such as the six-decade-old U. S. Blockade-Embargo against Cuban families.
  Of course, there are billions of unprogrammed non-Americans who do cry about disasters and blockades that Cubans on the island are subjected to. The president of Mexico, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, was in Havana for two days right after the explosion that destroyed the famous Saratoga Hotel. And for months Lopez Obrador has sharply criticized both the Trump and Biden administrations in Washington for taking "criminal" advantage of the COVID-19 pandemic to further expand the "already criminal and indecent blockade against totally innocent Cubans in Cuba." Next month...in June in Los Angeles...the U. S. will host the Summit of the Americas and President Obrador will not attend because he also thinks it is "criminal" that Cuba and its friends such as Venezuela and Nicaragua will not be allowed to attend. President Obrador, when announcing his reason for not attending the Summit in LA in June, also pointedly said, "To continue its Cuban policies since 1959, the U. S. conveniently lies about its love of the Batista and Mafia rule of Cuba prior to 1959."
      In the United States when ultra-rich individuals like Jeff Bezos and ultra-rich companies like Amazon began to be allowed to routinely buy mainstream media sources such as the Washington Post, Americans and others including Cubans began to suffer. In 2022 the top U. S. polls have revealed that "most Americans don't trust the mainstream U. S. media.". For the world's most famed democracy, that is an incredible development. AND.................................
...............for generations of Cuban families on the island of Cuba, it is particularly cruel.
