US Media Starts 65th Year of Trying to End Cuba's Revolution

 

   Now January of 2024 has arrived and since January of 1959 and everyday for the past 65 years the U. S. media has been obsessed with overthrowing the Cuban Revolution on the pugnacious nearby island. Of course, the Miami Herald's Andres Oppenheimer is just one example of the high-profile U. S. journalists whose focus is damning Revolutionary Cuba while implying how fantastic and great the prior Batista dictatorship in Cuba was!! But beyond Oppenheimer and the Miami Herald, it seems that all of the prime U. S. media outlets in the U. S. are awash with journalists whose mission is to shift foreign domination back to Cuba from the USA, and not just at the luscious U. S. Military Base that has dominated plush Guantanamo Bay in Cuba since 1903, or since the U. S. victory in the 1898 Spanish-American War fought in Cuba shifted foreign domination of Cuba from Spain to the United States. Of course, Mr. Oppenheimer and his ilk are not about to place any blame on Miami, Congressional Cubans, Batista, the Mafia, the U. S., etc., or anyone other than Revolutionary Cuba. For example, today is January 3rd of 2024 and here are the Top Cuban Headlines in the U. S. and they come from Oppenheimer's Miami Herald, and Fox News:
     Today on January 3rd of 2024, as shown above, Fox News is worried that some members of Congress are begging the U. S. to remove Cuba from its List of Nations That Sponsor Terrorism, which drastically exacerbates the starvation purposes of the six-decade-old Embargo/Blockade of Cuba. And, of course, Andres Oppenheimer's article/editorial today in the Miami Herald screams this blaring headline: "Cuba's dictatorship turns 65, and Cubans are fleeing like never before/Opinion." Of course, the rich and powerful Mr. Oppenheimer doesn't mention that calling Cuba a terrorist nation means that the tragic and endless U. S. Embargo/Blockade is starving many Cubans in Cuba and, alas, THEREFORE MANY OF THEM ARE INDEED TRYING TO GET RICH IN MIAMI. Mr. Oppenheimer, of course, is not about to mention that A Few Cubans in Cuba plan to survive Miami's beloved Embargo/Blockade and stay in Cuba!!
      On January 1st of 2024, as shown above, the Cuban media loudly celebrated the 65th ANNIVERSARY of the Cuban Revolution's Rule of Cuba...with the focus shifting to the historic city of Santiago de Cuba, which is 538 miles southeast of Havana. The Cuban media, as it often does, used the significant anniversity to compare its "journalism in Cuba to the journalism about Cuba in U. S. We journalists in Cuba live with the people of Cuba and we would be stupid and criminal to lie to them. The main U. S. journalists, on the other hand, are rich and isolated from average people and therefore benefit from the continuing lies about the Cuban Revolution...and especially about why is was necessay." While Oppenheimer and the Miami Herald today heralds the fact that "Cubans are fleeing the Revolution like never before...", the Cuban media has no trouble finding Revolutionary Cubans who still steadfastly support the Revolution and its prime leaders, including the old and new ones.
     The 92-year-old Raul Castro, one of the prime leaders of the Revolution from its start on July 26th of 1953 till January 1st of 1959, is shown above speaking in Santiago de Cuba on January 1st of 2024 to celebrate the 65th anniversary of Revolutionary Cuba.
    Also on January 1st of 2024 in Santiago de Cuba this was Cuba's new leader, Miguel Diaz-Canel, celebrating the 65th Anniversity of the Cuban Revolution's triumph. Diaz-Canel is not yet 65-years-old because he was born after January 1st of 1959, the day that the Revolutionary rule of Cuba began. While the U. S. media for the past 65 years has proclaimed that Cubans on the island supported Batista and not the rebels, and that Cubans in Cuba today all hate the Revolution, neither of those things are true...and if they were true the Revolution would not have won in 1959 and would not in 2024 still be in control on the island. While the U. S. media is not concerned with the opinions of everyday Cubans in Cuba, the Cuban media has no problem finding and publicizing revolutionary supporters today:
    Perhaps, one day, Mr. Oppenheimer and the other Miami Herald journalists might want to ask some of the Cubans {shown above  celebrating the 65h Anniversary of Revolutionary Cuba} how they feel about things such as...the endless Blockade, when they plan to "flee" to Miami, etc., etc. These Cubans have opinions too, although the U. S. media doesn't seem to think so. Of course, as far as the U. S. media is concerned, all the good Cubans are already in Miami or still trying to "flee to Miami."
   And, uh, Mr. Oppenheimer, why don't you ask this Cuban woman who lives in the town of Guantanamo how she feels about the U. S. Military Base that has been on Cuba's Guantanamo Bay since 1903!! Acutally, I don't think anyone in the U. S. media is interested about anything this Cuban woman thinks...although she probably has more interesting and more pertinent things to say about Cuba than Mr. Oppenheimer has...about things such as the eternal U. S. Military Base on the edge of her Cuban town of Guantanamo!! 
    For the record, Mr. Oppenheimer, the Cuban woman that lives in the town of Guantanamo thinks that there should not be a U. S. flag flying over the U. S. Military Base at Guantanamo Bay, not since 1903 and not forever. After all, she thinks the U. S. has enough military bases elsewhere in the Caribbean and especially in nearby Florida. So, Mr. Oppenheimer, is Cuba the "Pearl of the Antilles" or does it refer to the U. S. occupation of Guantanamo Bay?? If you write an Editorial about it, at least mention the opinion of the Cuban woman that lives in the town of Guantanamo!! Thank you.
