TODAY, as always, the nations of the world CONDEMNED the Embargo

 

     Today -- on November 3rd-2022 -- the nations of the world at the United Nations in New York voted overwhelmingly to end the U. S. Embargo/Blockade against Cuba, as they do yearly!! Today the vote was a firm 185 nations that voted to end the Embargo, which Cubans call a Blockade. The only 2 nations that voted to keep it, as usual, were the United States and Israel. The only 2 nations that abstained from voting were Brazil and Ukraine.

    The U. S. Embargo against Cuba has existed since 1962 -- three years after the Cuban Revolution defeated the U.S.-backed Batista dictatorship in 1959 and one year after the U. S. Bay of Pigs military attack in Cuba in 1961 failed to overthrow the revolutionary rule on the island. Since 1962 generations of Americans have been successfully programmed not to be ashamed of the worldview of the Embargo, as depicted above by the great Brazilian artist Carlos LaTuff...and as voted on today by the world at the UN.
