Miami to London courts sue unrepresented Cuba

SO WHAT? 

    A notable Caribbean photographer named Tonalli Ambar took the photo above right after a rainstorm had just drenched this Havana street and its 1950s-era cars. When the rain stopped this tourist resumed her walking tour of the Caribbean's most famous capital city. Soooooo...the point is...this photo is a rarity from Havana because it doesn't demean Cuba nor does it show disrespect for the Cuban people on the island. All it shows...is a glimpse of Cuba at a moment of time in April of 2023.
      Meanwhile today -- on April 5th, 2023 -- the Cuban Headlines, as shown above, mostly reflect only how wonderful the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship was in Cuba in the 1950s and how terrible the U.S.-hated Revolutionary Cuba has been since January 1, 1959. The CNBC News Headline shown above, for example, blares this news on April 5-2023: "CUBA'S LOSSES IN CASE OF CASTRO-ERA DEBT OPEN IT UP TO MORE LAWSUITS."  In other words...64 years after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution captured Havana and created Little Havana USA in Miami, courtrooms in Miami and even London can sue unrepresented Cuba for virtually whatever they want to sue Cuba for...including money. The above CNBC article this first week of April-2023 is a huge USA report about a courtroom in London trying to squeeze the Cuban lemon for whatever money remains that can possibly be still "legally squeezed" out of the besieged island.
    Above you can see a small piece of the CNBC News Report in the U. S. that informs Americans and the World on April 5th-2023 that a courtroom in London is squeezing the Cuban lemon when, as always, Cuba is unrepresented but high-priced lawyers hostile to Cuba are salivating as if they are shooting fish in an undefended bucket. The article, of course, doesn't explain that U. S. courts, especially in Miami, have sued unrepresented Cuba since 1962, the year the U. S. Embargo against Cuba began, and especiallly since 1996, the year that Little Havana USA in Miami orchestrated the extremely punitive {for Cuba} and extremely lucrative {for Little Havana USA} Congressional Bill known as the Helms-Burton Act, the extremely punitive-lucrative U. S. law that remains extremely legal to this day.
Little Havana USA has existed since 1959.
The Helms-Burton Bill has existed since 1996.
    Yes, "With the Helms-Burton Act, the U. S. sought to asphyxiate the Cuban economy..." The truth is...early in 1996 the Democratic U. S. President Bill Clinton had let it be known that he was about to ease the U. S. Embargo against Cuba, but he misjudged the power in Washington of Little Havana USA. Thus, President Clinton became the President that signed the Helms-Burton Act into law. But please study the scared and defeated expression that President Clinton couldn't hide right after he signed the Act into law. He was looking up at Bob Menendez while, as he well knew, peering down at the back of President Clinton's head was Lincoln Diaz-Balart. The day in 1996 when he signed the Helms-Burton Act into law, the reluctant and scared President Clinton could only wish that he had as much power as Menendez and Diaz-Balart.
     A Captivating History of Cuba can appropriately include the Skull & Bones attached to the Helms-Burton Act since the reluctant President Clinton signed it into law in 1996.
      But in April of 2023 neither the United States of America nor the masses of Cubans on their island can smile about the Helms-Burton Act that so easily and powerfully has been legal since 1996. So who does smile about it? Just Little Havana USA?
