USA Today Headline in Late October-2024!!
The USA's national newspaer USA Today published the above headline on October 20th & 21st in October of 2024. It reports that yet another Hurricane, this time Oscar, has hit the already battered island of Cuba that was also trying to recover from a nationwide Power Blackout that affected all ten million of the citizens on the vulnerable island.
As you can see above, the USA Today leads the Top Cuban Headlines in late October of 2024. All four of the headlines, as you can detect, continue the vast litany of Cuban News that strongly hints that the end of the historic Cuban Revolution is coming to an end. If so, history will register the fact that Revolutionary Cuba has incredibly lasted for 65 years, since 1959. Moreover, Revolutionary Cuba has even existed for over 62 years, since 1962, when its northern neighbor, the Superpower United States, began its economic Embargo/Blockade that -- for over six decades -- has intended to "starve, deprive, and make miserable" the Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government, which back on the first day of January in 1959 shocked the world by overthrowing the Mafia-backed and U.S.-backed Batista dictatorship. For over six decades the Embargo/Blockade of Cuba has not fulfilled its goals...at least till now. Now drastic food shortages, medical shortages, and power blackouts are combining to finally destroy the Cuban Revoluion even without an overall internal and domestic overthrow or uprising.
The photo above by USA Today in late October of 2024 shows two generations of Cubans in total despair and with no hope to continue their lives on the island. Since 1959, and especially since 1962, such a photo was preordained, I think.
In 1959 The Cuban Revolution shocked the world.
In October of 2024 the U. S. EMBARGO shocks the world.
Final Comment: Cuba, a few miles south of the United States, is the largest and arguably the most beautiful island in the Caribbean. Since Columbus discovered Cuba in 1492 and proclaimed it "the most beautiful land these eyes have ever seen," it has been fought over by world powers ever since, including the decades it was controlled by Spain until the United States launched the easy and brief Spanish-American War on Cuban soil in 1898. Then the next greatest historic event came in 1959 when the Cuban Revolution overthrew the U.S.-backed/Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship. And now in October of 2024...it seems that the next great historic event in the history of Cuba will be the impending end of the Cuban Revolution.
