Incredible!!!!!!!

For the past six decades there have been intermittent signs that the superpower United States wants to "Let Cuba Live"!! But, meanwhile, the tenets of the "EMBARGO" have remained the exact same since 1962, which is to starve, deprive, and make miserable the Cubans to make them rise up and overthrow their revolutionary government. Thus the dichotomy of the two images above diverge into political chicanery, at least as far as the starving, deprived, and miserable Cuban families in Cuba are concerned.
As if to tease Cubans in this first week of December in 2023, the ad/promotion from the Tampa International Airport in Florida hints that a key provision of the EMBARGO, blocking tourism to Cuba, will be eased!! But remember...if Cuba was permitted to have normal tourism, the U. S. six-decade-old rule to starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans in Cuba would essentially cease to exist. And thus...that easing will not happen.
The explanation by the Tampa International Airport {Above} starts with the sentence "Good news for guests traveling to Cuba from Tampa..." It states that starting on June 4th of 2024 that Southwest Airlines will drastically increase its flights to Cuba. But the sentence that starts the next to last paragraph above says: "Travel to Cuba from the United States is restricted..." No KIDDING!! Since 1962 the U. S. Embargo/Blockade against Cuba has made sure that U. S. tourists to Cuba are not allowed to spend money that might help Cuba's economy. That nice and endless law might benefit a few Cuban-Americans in Miami and Washington but for the past six decades+ is has devastated Cuban families in Cuba.
The map above indicates that Cuba alone in the region is restricted from making money, at least a few dollars or pesos, from tourism or from other normal enterprises such as exports & inports. Nearby is Florida, which is enormously wealthy from lucrative unrestricted enterprises such as tourism, an abundance of U. S. military bases, etc. And Florida is home base for International Cruise Lines but such ships must bypass Cuba and, if they have the audacity to dock at a Cuban port they then can not dock at a U. S. port. Wow!! Starving, depriving, and making miserable Cubans in Cuba is easy for a Superpower, and all you have to do is tell the American people the Cubans in Miami and Washington are the "Good Guys" and the Cubans in Cuba are the "Bad Guys." Wow!!
So, in the first week of December-2023 Southwest Airlines is allowed to announce that in June of 2024 that it will drastically increase its flights from Florida...but those flights won't be allowed to help the blockaded Cuban economy!!!
Above you can see how close Tampa-Miami-Key West airports in Florida are to Havana. The proximity dating from 1959 to December-2023 explains how rich and powerful the Cubans in Tampa-Miami-Key West have become while the "mean" Cubans in Cuba have been starved, deprived, and made miserable!!
The map above shows Havana* as the capital of Cuba but mostly it shows how uniquely treated by the United States that Cuba is as compared to the treatment Cuba's neighbors receive. For example, in this first weekend of December-2023 a few miles northeast of Cuba the Bahamas is hosting a money/tourist-driven Golf Tournament that includes world-famed golfers such as Tiger Woods. And just a few miles southeast of Cuba in Jamaica there have been money/tourist-driven events such as international track meets, heavyweight championship boxing matches, etc. Nice, but sports-loving Cuba is not allowed to participate in such events because the decision-makers in the United States are supported by the strongest, richest, and most influential nation in the world -- the nearby United States.
Should the United States "Let Cuba Live"??
Is this image of the United States OK??
