Clouds Over Cuba

     Yes, there are very dark clouds hovering over Cuba today -- August 5th, 2022. We know that because a great Cuban photo-journalist named Yamil Lage -- who works for the global Paris-based AFP News Agency -- informs the world of that fact. His four photos shown above were also posted on Facebook today. He is confirming that the dark clouds can't conceal the fact that there are food shortages on the island...and medical shortages on the island...and power shortages on the island, etc, etc.
  While the Biden administration in Washington like the Trump administration that preceded it have both allowed extreme Counter Revolutionary Cuban-Americans like Democratic Senator Bob Menendez and Republican Senator Marco Rubio to dictate Cuban policy, the ever-tightening U. S. EMBARGO, exacerbated all the more by things such as the Pandemic, have seemingly given Newark, Miami, and Washington the chance to finally overthrow the Cuban Revolution that back in January of 1959 overthrew the U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in Cuba.
   At least, the ever-tightening EMBARGO continues to give Cuba the excuse to blame the United States for the island's food, medical, power, and other problems. Cuba's current President -- Miguel Diaz-Canel, who was born after the triumph of the Revolution -- remains very popular with most Cubans on the island. And Fidel Castro, the historic rebel who died at age 90 in 2016, also remains very popular with most Cubans on the island.
    Back in the 1950s there was no chance a little rebel uprising could overthrow the rich and ultra-powerful Batista dictatorship, but it did. And since 1959 there has been no chance that Cuba could prevent the rich and ultra-powerful Counter Revolutionary Cubans in the U. S. from overthrowing the Revolution, but it has.
      In other words, little Cuba is still doing the impossible...while Cubans in Cuba suffer more-and-more as anointed Cubans in the United States get richer-and--richer.
