Like the two largest U. S. newspapers, the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times, the Miami Herald has prime anti-Cuban journalists reporting on US-Cuban Relations in September of 2026. Thus, the latest anti-Cuban diatribe/headline, as shown below, was written by the Miami Herald's counter revolutionary expert Nora Gamez Torres. It, of course, perpetrates the notion that Cuba, since 1959, is solely responsible for the daily devastations that the regular Cuban people have faced for the past six+ decades, or since the Cuban Revolution overthrew the US-backed and Mafia-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista on January 1st in 1959.
History reports many assassination attempts against Cuba's rebel leader Fidel Castro failed in 1959 and 1960. Then the 1961 air-land-and-sea military attack known as the Bay of Pigs also failed to overthrow Fidel Castro and his Cuban Revolution. It was then that the U. S. in 1962 began an economic blockade/embargo surrounding the island of Cuba that, according to U. S. documents, was designed to starve, deprive, and make miserable the Cuban people to induce them to rise up and overthrow their revolutionary government. But that overthrow for six+ decades has not happened but from 1962 until September of 2026, the blockade/embargo of the island has severely starved, deprived, and made miserable generations of Cubans on the island...while counter revolutionary Cuban-Americans in nearby Miami have, since 1959, become wealthy and politically powerful.
All the while, the Miami Herald, and most of the rest of the U. S. news media, solely places the blame on Cuba for the drastic conditions devastating the Cuban people, and that is a lie. No small nation such as Cuba could be expected to survive such a blockade/embargo from a much larger nation for a few years and certainly not for six+ decades. Almost the whole world, including lifelong Democracy-lovers and American-lovers like me, decry the plight of the blockaded/embargoed Cuban people. But, deep into September of 2026, the Miami Herald and Nora Gamez Torres still always reflect the views of rich and powerful Miami Cubans while not considering the victimized Cubans in Cuba.,,as today's headlines from Miami, London, and the USA's AP reveal.
Above in September in 2026 are some latest reports about the tragedy in Cuba from the Miami Herald, the worldwide London-based Reuters News Agency, and the U. S. News Agency Associated Press. You will note that those three sources use such words as "geocidal" to describe the effects the endless U. S. blockade/embargo of Cuba is having on the almost helpless Cuban people on their surrounded island. Even the U. S. AP news agency says, "The psychological toll of daily life in Cuba is pushing many to their breaking point." YET, for six+ decades neither the American people nor the American government have had the courage or decency to do anything about the blockade/embargo that began in February of 1962 and continues to worsen drastically in September of 2026.
"...policy of hostility and blockade..."
