Cuba BEGS U. S. for Help!!!

 HERE is WHY!!

    While trying mightily to survive the endless U. S. Embargo and the lessening COVID pandemic, an alarming series of massive explosions and fires have assaulted Cuba's tourist and energy sectors. The fear includes the explosion-fire at the Muriel Economic Zone 30 miles southwest of Havana. Then there was a deadly explosion-fire that totally destroyed the Saratoga Hotel in the heart of Havana, killing dozens of workers who were getting the hotel ready for the vital tourist season. And then this month of August-2022 the Reuters/Alexandre Meneghini photo shown above shows the deadly explosion-fire that destroyed Cuba's most important Oil Depot at Matanzas 65 miles east of Havana, killing 16 Cuban firefighters. The Cuban government says the massive explosions-fires are being caused by "accidents." However, many Cuban citizens are, of course, very skeptical...to say the least!!

     In this last week of August-2022 international news sources including the London-based BBC & Reuters, Paris-based AFP, etc., and even the Voice of America have spread the above headline around the world: "CUBA ASKS US FOR TECHNICAL HELP TO CLEAN UP OIL DEPOT AFTER FIRE." The headline above is from the worldwide platforms of the V*A, the international forums paid for by U. S. taxpayers. The request by Cuba's revolutionary government to the U. S. government asking for U. S. assistance as it still tries to clean up the Matanzas oil depot disaster is surely  extraordinary!! Reuters and other sources have informed the world that the nations that quickly helped Cuba fight the five-day fires that raged from the Matanzas explosions were Mexico, Venezuela, Bolivia, the Dominican Republic, etc...but not the U. S. even though Cuba did, in fact, "make a phone call asking for U. S. help in the belief the U. S. had the best foam and other material to quell such disasters."

         And indeed...worldwide articles have told about the latest massive explosion and fire at the Matanzas oil depot, the one that DESTROYED VITAL ENERGY SOURCES AND KILLED 16 FIREFIGHTERS. And whether such deadly fires and explosions are accidental or terror-related, the main victims are always everyday Cubans on the island. Thus...it is appropriate, even days later, that the Cuban government felt obligated to even ask the superpower United States for its help in trying to clean up the Matanzas site where so many Cubans were killed and where a energy source so vital to the whole island was destroyed. After all, even while maintaining a cruel Embargo-Blockade against Cuba for over six decades, the well-to-do people in Miami and Washington who make such things legal always claim they are "trying to help the everyday Cuban people on the island." IF SO...perhaps it's time to finally show that such words are truthful and meaningful...at least once.
