Will Miami-born Rubio Treat Raul Castro Fairly??

      Today on May 21st in 2026 it was 85 degrees and windy in Miami when the city's superstar Marco Rubio, the USA's powerful Secretary of State, stopped for an interview in which he told Miami's TV-10 News these words: "The likelihood of a Cuba-US deal is not high."

      So, to the delight of of his fellow Cuban-Americans who have ruled Little Havana in Miami since 1959, plans appear on pace for Raul Castro, who turns 95 years old on June 3rd, to be captured and put on trial in Miami. He will be charged in the deaths of four "Brothers to the Rescue" flyers who were in two small Miami planes that Cuba shot down thirty years ago, in 1996. Miami, the U. S. government, and the U. S. media have always maintained that the two planes, and one other that turned around and returned safely to Miami, were merely rescuing Cubans in the sea as they tried to reach Florida. Cuba has always maintained the Miami planes, led by a famed counter-revolutionary in Miami, were on their way to harass or harm Cubans as they had done previously with low-level flights that dropped leaflets/debris that scared Havana citizens. Moreover, Cuba said it had begged the U. S. State Department to stop the flights or Cuba itself would be forced to do something about it. Trials in Florida have resulted in many millions of dollars being awarded to Miami Cubans and the shootdowns have also resulted in the famed Helms-Burton Act and other laws that have for decades enriched Miami Cubans while devastating Cubans in Cuba.

      Born 85 years ago in Santiago de Cuba, Jose Basulto is known as a CIA-trained Cuban with a drastic reputation as a fierce counter-revolutionary/anti-Castro militant...even before the Cuban Revolution defeated Dictator Batista on January 1st in 1959. Once he settled in Miami Basulto founded Brothers to the Rescue, which before and after the famed shootdowns in 1996 was well-funded with the "rescue planes" that flew in the Caribbean Sea between Miami and Havana. A beloved hero in Miami, Basulto's views are generally never questioned in Miami or in the U. S., including by the U. S. media. But some historians, and at least one persistent journalist, do insist that there indeed are two sides to the Brothers to the Rescue saga.

      The tireless Liz Oliva Hernandez has spent many years in the U. S. and especially in Cuba researching and reporting daily and producing five "The War On Cuba" documentaries that are featured on YouTube and elsewhere. Liz wonders if Miami's U. S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio will be fair to Raul Castro if the elderly revolutionary icon ever appears in a Miami courtroom. Below are Liz's beliefs:

      In other words, the diligent journalist Liz Oliva Hernandez -- as you can see above -- and others like her -- believe that Miami courtrooms should allow Cuba to sue known Miami counter-revolutionaries such as the infamous Posada Carriles and Orlando Bosch who "lived freely in Miami until their deaths."

So Yes???????

Would Raul Castro receive fairness in Rubio's Miami?
