From Both Miami & Washington!!
It was January 1st of 1959 when the Cuban Revolution overthrew the U.S./Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship. Batista, who had close ties to Miami, fled to Dictator Trujillo's Dominican Republic but many of his cohorts, including Ministers, quickly became powerful political operatives in Miami. Soon...Little Havana USA in the heart of Miami emerged as a dominant political forces in Miami first and then in all of Florida and then in Washington. Although such basic facts are routinely denied, it will very hard to deny in February of 2024 that Little Havana USA politicians in Miami and in Washington for decades have dictated the USA's Cuban policies.
And, therefore, in February of 2024 the three very important historic images shown above are still factually true but routinely denied and totally distorted, especially by the mainstream U. S. media. For example...:
The Wall Street Journal is by the largest and most read newspaper in the U. S., much larger than the NY Times, Washington Post, etc. But all of them have vicious and full-time journalists that routinely on a daily basis wildly defame Cuba and wildly promote the wonders of Little Havana USA. The wild and vicious WSJ Headline and Sub-Headline shown above is a flagrant example of typical U. S. media reporting on Cuba this first week in February of 2024...as the WSJ, on a massively important News Day in the U. S., wildly demeans Cuba with its claims about "apologists" for Revolutionary Cuba's alleged and rampant terrorism...but not mentioning vast real terrorism against Cuba.
For example, the historic photo above is one that "apologists" for Little Havana USA, such as the Wall Street Journal, will never mention correctly. The photo above documents the day a Cuban mother and sister were at the Havana airport awaiting the return of their teenage son and brother from a Central American Sports Event. But the airplane -- known to history as Cubana Flight 455 -- was bombed into the ocean by a terrorist bomb, killing all on board including a couple of teenage athletes. Declasssified U. S. documents, as well as Google searches, readlily reveal the culprits/terrorists and other details related to the fate of Cubana Flight 455 but, of course, only in Cuba it seems are US-Cuba observers supposed to feel sorry for mothers and sisters at the very moment they learned that their son and brother had just been violently killed. But this photo, and others like it, forever freeze the facial expressions of that sister and mother at that fateful moment in time.
In 2024 -- the 65th Year of Revolutionary Cuba -- many Cubans, Americans, and people around the world believe that US-Cuban Relations, both for history and topicality reasons, should be reported fairly. And that includes, I believe, that in February of 2024 that the six images depicted below should be reported fairly.
In February of 2024 the six images shown directly above reflect a prime result of Little Havana USA's dictation of the U. S. policies related to Cuba. Since 1962, 62 years ago, the U. S. has maintained the economic Embargo/Blockade against Cuba that, as explained by declassified U. S. documents, still is trying to starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans in Cuba to induce them to rise up and overthrow their post-Batista government. The Embargo/Blockade in February of 2024 has drastically promoted billions of tourism dollars for Miami but has drastically denied tourism money for Cuba!!! So, as you study the six images above, try to be fair about judging them. For example, note that the ultra-rich tourist mecca of Miami -- like all neighborly places except Cuba -- can depend on money from tourism, but the good people in Little Havana USA don't think the bad people in Cuba should have that capability.
Yes, even the mighty Norwegian Cruise Line is headquartered in Miami as if to show that Miami loves to make huge amounts of money by transporting or flying tourists elsewhere -- all EXCEPT to Cuba!!!
Tourists leaving Miami can cruise anywhere except nearby Cuba!!
But...it should be remembered that "before 1959" during the Mafia-Batista rule of Cuba the United States -- especially nearby Miami -- wildly sent tourists to Batista's Cuba to partake in spending money on massive Mafia lures such as gambling, drugs, prostitution, etc., etc. And then "AFTER 1959" the good Little Havana USA Cubans in Miami, for over six decades related to Cuba, have had different tourism ideas!!
In other words:
Before 1959 Miami wildly promoted "Visits to Cuba" but since 1959 the leaders in Miami's Little Havana USA have been allowed to dictate the USA's Cuban policies, and that includes making sure tourism doesn't help the island's dire economic problems. "So near and yet so foreign!! 90 miles from Key West!! VISIT CUBA!!" If nothing else, please admit that prior to 1959 that Miami loved Batista's Cuba.
