Cuba Replies to Biden's Genocide

 As Cuba realizes Biden Continues

the Genocide Trump started!!

    Realizing that the Biden administration is continuing the Genocide against Cuban families that the Trump administration left behind, Cuba has suspended U. S. dollars...including the remittances that many Cubans in the U. S. send back to the island to help relatives survive both the U.S. Embargo/Blockade and the COVID pandemic.

     After failing to recapture Cuba with the Bay of Pigs military attack in April of 1961 and with the many failed attempts to kill Fidel Castro, in 1962 the U. S. began its Embargo for the purpose, as confirmed by de-classified U. S. documents, to deprive, starve, and make miserable Cubans on the island to induce Cubans on the island to rise up and overthrow their revolutionary government that had overthrown the U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in 1959. After 6+ decades, the cruel {for Cubans in Cuba} but lucrative {for Cubans in Miami} Embargo still hasn't created the uprising on the island it intended, even with endless streams of tax-dollars encouraging dissidents in Cuba and Counter Revolutionaries in the U. S. to enhance the ongoing efforts.

     Because the U. S. demands that it is so, Cuba has no relationship with the international banking systems and the U. S. routinely uses its worldwide influence to fine even foreign companies that do not bend to its stringent Cuban sanctions. Often those companies simply pay the fines in settlements because they otherwise might be deprived of engaging in normal commerce with the U. S. or U. S. allies.

      Of course, in addition to highly funded anti-Cuba/pro-Little Havana propaganda blogs in the U. S., the mainstream media such as the Miami Herald, the Washington Post, the New York Times, etc. all have high-paid and high-profile 'journalists' regularly telling Americans how great the Batista dictators in Cuba were till 1959 and how great the Cubans in Little Havana have been since 1959.

     With the decline of true journalism in the U. S., only a few competent and honest stalwarts -- led by Tracey Eaton -- even try to provide the facts about the Little Havana-led and money-crazed United States relationship with Cuba. Eaton, now also a beloved Journalism Professor in Florida, regularly uses the Freedom of Information laws to obtain and then list in startling detail the amount of tax dollars routinely doled out by the U. S. government seemingly to just about anybody that raises their hand and promises to help U. S. Counter Revolutionaries do their Cuban bidding, which seems to be geared toward two ageless things -- money and revenge!!

     From Jan. 20-2017 till Jan. 20-2021 President Trump and Senator Rubio expanded the cruel and lucrative six-decade-old U. S. Embargo against Cuba into an even more cruel and lucrative U. S. Genocide against masses of Cuban families on the island. The main purpose of the Trump-Rubio cruelty and greed, of course, was to further enrich and empower selected Cuban-Americans in Miami, Newark/Union City, and the U. S. Congress. Of Course, because the topic is Cuba, neither the U. S. government nor the mainstream media had the courage or integrity to tell the U. S. people what they were doing. For example, Americans surely were not told that Trump-Rubio activated Title 3 of Helms-Burton so that rich Cubans in Miami could more easily sue companies in the U. S. or anywhere else after they charge Cuba, in U.S.-friendly courts, with anything they want to sue Cuba for. As happened last week, a Swiss company paid up quickly because it needs to bend to the U. S. economic power. Even the George W. Bush presidency from 2000 till 2009 refused to activate Title 3. Yes, as President George W. Bush, like his father GHW and his brother Jeb -- was totally aligned with the Little Havana-directed cruelty and richness related to Cuba. But during his two-terms, even President Bush refused to activate the GENOCIDAL Title 3 provision!!! But, without a whimper from either the mainstream U. S. media nor the U. S. citizens, both the TRUMP and BIDEN administrations have activated Title 3's GENOCIDE. So, in June of 2021 Title 3/Helms-Burton is the unchecked tool being used to expedite Genocide against totally innocent Cuban families on the island to appease Republican-anointed U. S. Cubans like Marco Rubio from Miami's ultra-unchecked and ultra-powerful Little Havana conclave.

     But well into the month of June-2021, it is apparent that the Biden presidency as directed by Senator Bob Menendez is determined to continue the Trump-Rubio Genocide against Cubans in Cuba while, of course, continuing the largess for Cubans in Miami/Little Havana, Newark/Union City, and in the U. S. Congress. You see, the U. S. has a two-party political system and both are money-crazed, including massive donations that help politicians get elected and then allow them to stay around forever it seems. Trump-Rubio are Republicans while Biden-Menendez are Democrats. And in 2021 it is apparent that the USA's two-party political system needs at least a three-PARTY POLITICAL SYSTEM!! Proof of that is the fact that Biden & Menendez have greedily continued the Trump & Rubio genocide on Cubans in Cuba to appease the most greedy and most revengeful U. S. Cubans.

COMMENT:

     While the prime benefactors in Cuba in the 1950s and in the U. S. since 1959 were/are obscenely greedy, I sincerely believe that the main culprits are the generations of U. S. citizens who have allowed it to happen, apparently without any appreciation of their Democracy. In 1952 the Dulles brothers and Nixon {then the Secretary of State, CIA Director, and Vice President} teamed the U. S. with the top echelon of the Mafia in the belief that rich Americans could better partake in the rape & robbery of the Caribbean's largest and most beautiful island if Cuba was a brutal dictatorship as opposed to a decent and honest democracy that would probably make sure that the country's resources would mostly benefit the everyday Cuban people. That generation of Americans in the 1950s didn't ask, "Why are we teaming with the Mafia in Cuba?" Instead Americans in the 1950s flocked to Cuba as tourists to revel in Mafiosi staples such as drugs, gambling, and prostitution. Then beginning in 1959 when exiles from Batista's Cuba took over Miami and quickly created Little Havana, U. S. soil resembled what Batista's lavish but brutal Havana had been. In other words, extreme wealth for some and extreme mayhem for the rest has been allowed to become ingrained deep within the bowels of the U. S. democracy...from Miami to Newark to Washington. Back in 1976 the great Cuban-American broadcaster-journalist in Miami, Emilio Milian, openly denounced the unchecked and deadly terrorism routinely administered by newly exiled Cubans against innocent Cubans in Miami and in Cuba. And then, not unexpectedly, the brave and decent Emilio Milian himself got car-bombed. That generation of Americans tolerated such things either out of fear or out of a lack of loving their democracy, but either way I believe that those U. S. citizens were as guilty as the terrorists who car-bombed Emilio Milian.

     Needless to say, since things such as the car-bombing against Miami's bravest and best journalist Emilio Milian, it hasn't been healthy or politically correct to denounce terrorism against innocent Cubans or to denounce when the Trump and Biden administrations both have put Cuba on the U. S. List of Terrorist Nations, not because Cuba is a Terrorist Nation but by putting Cuba on that list it becomes must easier to sue companies, domestic or foreign, that may have done or is doing business with Cuba...you know, for not obeying the vast myriad sanctions against Cuba. No one, you see, wants the same fate that befell Emilio Milian just because he was a decent and honest journalist.

     In the annals of the United States, the Mafia and Mobsters have played integral roles. The list above includes the names and photos of two Mafia kingpins -- Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky -- who teamed with the U. S. government to support the Batista dictatorship prior to the notable intervention on Jan. 1-1959 by the Cuban Revolution. In fact, Mafia experts often list Luciano and Lansky as the two all-time most powerful and smartest Mafia leaders. It was Luciano and Lansky who from 1952 till 1959 brutalized and robbed Cuba at will...along with some of the USA's largest businesses.

    The graphic above correctly points out that Lucky Luciano, Meyer Lansky, and Fulgencio Batista ruled Mafia-saturated Cuba -- with the ample help of the United States of America --  from 1952 till 1959, spawning the Cuban Revolution.

      

After the 1898 Spanish-American War, the U. S. replaced Spain as the dominant force in Cuba. Therefore, the U. S. had a chance to make Cuba, the largest and arguably the most beautiful nation in the Caribbean, into a world-class Democracy with a Capital D. But that didn't happen. In 1903, for example, the U. S. stole gorgeous Guantanamo Bay from Cuba and built a plush and still flourishing Military Base and an infamous Prison there. By 1952 the U. S. democracy teamed with the very top echelon of the Mafia -- Lucky Luciano and Meyer Lansky -- to support the brutal and thieving Batista dictatorship in Cuba. By 1952 the U. S. was also supporting brutal dictators such as Trujillo in the Dominican Republic, Samoso in Nicaragua, etc. The U. S. idea, of course, was that rich U. S. companies in brutal dictatorships could partake in the rape & robbery of small countries while in democracies those natural resources would mostly stay in those nations to help native people. When the U. S. media and U. S. people allowed that to help to their democracy, by the 1970s the U. S. had willy-nilly participated in things like a bloody coup that replaced the popular, democratically-elected President Salvador Allende with the incredibly brutal but U.S.-friendly Dictator Augusto Pinochet for 17 extremely brutal years. Of course, brutal dictators like Batista, Trujillo, Somoso, Pinochet, etc. -- as loyalists of the U. S. -- always tried to help the U. S. try to recapture or brutalize Cuba after the Cuban Revolution in 1959 shocked the world by chasing U. S. allies -- including Luciano and Lansky -- out of Cuba!! So Little Cuba was the little nation that reminded the world that the U. S. preferred dictators and not democracies because democracies would not tend to allow FOREIGN NATIONS to rob them blind!!!

        When the United States supported the Luciano-Lansky-Batista dictatorship in the 1950s, American tourists and companies were encouraged to flock to Cuba with fistful of dollars. Since the Cuban Revolution in 1959 ended the Mafiosi-Batistiano rule, the continuous U.S/Little Havana effort to starve and/or overthrow Revolutionary Cuba has been woefully unsuccessful, except for severely harming Cuban families in Cuba and making a lot of millionaires and billionaires out of selected Cuban-Americans. In June of 2021 the Biden administration in Washington has followed the Trump administration by imposing the most severe genocide heaped on masses of Cubans in Cuba since 1959. And still, this generation of Americans in June of 2021 has been programmed to accept genocide being imposed in their names on innocent Cubans in Cuba...just as in 1952 when that generation of Americans accepted it when the U. S. democracy teamed itself with the Mafia to support the brutal, thieving Batista dictatorship in Cuba.

     This map reveals the sheer closeness that Cuba is to the U. S., namely to Florida. Cuba is also the largest and the most beautiful island nation in the Caribbean. In June of 2021, Cuba's size, location, and beauty...along with its resilient, sovereignty-loving, sports-loving, music-loving, well-educated, and family-oriented people deserve a lot more than to be targeted by genocide designed by a handful of greedy, revengeful, and not-so-nice people using the incomparable power and treasury of the world's superpower nation, which hovers ominously just north of the island's coastline. To many observers, Cuba has been and remains the Superstar of the Caribbean since 1492, the year Columbus called it "the most beautiful land these eyes have ever seen." Beyond question, Cuba has far more economic potential than any country in the Caribbean or than in any country close to its size in all of Latin America. Of course, extreme propaganda has told Americans that the reason Cuba is not the economic Superstar in the Caribbean is because of its own fault, and that is a bald-faced lie not befitting a democracy, just as it was not befitting for the U. S. democracy to team with the Mafia in the rape and robbery of the island in the 1950s. For example, no other small nation in the entire world could have survived things as unchecked terror attacks {such as the bombing of the child-laden civilian plane {Cubana Flight 455} in which all 73 people on board were killed; or how many other countries could have survived an air-land-sea military attack known as the Bay of Pigs; and, most of all, no other small nation in the entire world except Cuba could have survived and is surviving what has been history's all-time cruelest and longest Embargo/Blockade ever imposed on a much smaller nation by a much larger nation.

      The fact that American's are programmed not to be ashamed about this accurate image SAYS A LOT MORE ABOUT AMERICA THAN IT SAYS ABOUT CUBA. From the world's strongest democracy, consistent propaganda from the 1950's till June of 2021 has created successive generations of Americans who accept multiple calamities regarding Cuba...allowing the Mafia to brutalize and ransack Cuba starting in 1952 in the Batista dictatorship; providing Batistiano exiles on U. S. soil the wherewithal to terrorize Cubans including bombing a child-laden civilian airplane into the ocean; trying to starve Cubans in Cuba from 1962 till June of 2021 while making it easy for selected Cubans in South Florida to become politically powerful millionaires and billionaires; taking advantage of the COVID pandemic in June of 2021 to further enrich and empower U. S. Cubans while further tightening the screws against Cubans in Cuba; etc.; etc.; etc.!!!

Biden Uses COVID to Hurt Cuba Families

 And He Will GET AWAY With It!!

    Today -- June 10-2021 -- in England President Biden, as shown above, told the world that the U. S. in August will start providing 500,000,000 Covid vaccines to poor countries after the U. S. buys them from Pfizer. The island nation of Cuba, which is a very poor country because of the U. S. Embargo/Blockade that began in 1962, is the one nation that will not, of course, get a single vaccine from all that U. S. benevolence. That, of course, is because Biden only takes his Cuban orders only from the likes of vicious Counter Revolutionaries such as Rubio, Menendez, the Diaz-Balart brothers, Claver-Carone, etc., who owe their lifelong financial and political success to vicious and unchecked assaults on Cuban families on the island. Of course, millions of decent Americans are surprised that President Biden is continuing the genocide against Cuban families that his predecessor, President Trump, began. But remember, the U. S. has a two-party political system -- Republican and Democratic -- and both are money-crazed, as are the money-crazed elections that get them elected!!

  Since 2019 the great Brazilian Editorialist/Cartoonist Carlos LaTuff has used brilliant images like the one above to inform the world that the U. S. has taken advantage of the COVID pandemic to further expand its genocide against masses of everyday families in Cuba. Of course, neither the mainstream U. S. media nor this generation of Americans give a damn about genocide being committed against Cuban families on the island in their name...the same media and the same generation that are very quick to accuse a China or a Russia of committing genocide against people "in much smaller countries."

     But, thankfully, there are billions of decent people around the world who are not afraid of the USA's propaganda regarding Cuba...and in the digital age important outlets such as CounterPunch have the courage and integrity to tell the truth about U. S. genocide against Cuban families, such as with the headline depicted above. As you see, the above article is written by W. T. Whitney, who is a retired pediatrician and now an excellent journalist living in Maine.

    In the CounterPunch article above, Cuba is praised for being the smallest nation in the world to produce its own COVID vaccines even as the U. S. blockade tries its best to block the effort. Cuba, for example, is now vaccinating its 11.2 million people but it needs 30,000 syringes to keep doing it. Cuba was buying the syringes from a company in Switzerland but this month of June-2021 the company was purchased by a U. S. company. Thus, the Swiss company quickly informed Cuba it could no longer send any of the badly needed syringes to Cuba. Of course, for the most part neither the mainstream U. S. media nor this generation of Americans have the guts nor the integrity to even mention such things as the U. S. blocking those syringes from reaching Cuba, thus facilitating what billions of decent people around the world believe is criminal genocide against people in a very small country, Cuba, being carried out by a few unchecked people in a very large country, the United States of America!!

Little Havana Scares Biden Administration

Little Havana Wants Havana & WASHINGTON!!!

     Back in the 1950s Rafael Diaz-Balart was a key Minister in the brutal and thieving U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in Cuba. In January of 1959 the Cuban Revolution defeated the Batista regime, chasing many of its prime leaders to a new haven in nearby Miami. Quickly on U. S. soil Diaz-Balart began creating Little Havana in the heart of Miami, and he built the very first anti-Castro paramilitary group in South Florida, which he called The White Rose. Backed by huge funds from the ousted Batista dictatorship and by even larger funds and resources from the U. S. government, Diaz-Balart and his cohorts believed they could recapture Cuba within a few weeks, or a few months at the most. It, of course, hasn't happened...making Revolutionary Cuba's longevity, 6+ decades and counting, even more incredible than the Revolution!!! Rafael Diaz-Balart was born in Banes, Cuba, in 1926 the year Fidel Castro was born in nearby Biran, Cuba. They were classmates in the University of Havana Law School, and Fidel's first wife was Mirta Diaz-Balart, Rafael's sister. For sure, Rafael Diaz-Balart died in Key Biscayne, Florida in 2005 as a very rich and powerful man, but his obsession of recapturing Cuba had eluded him. Yet, he left his four sons to continue his mammoth goal.

     This photo shows Rafael Diaz-Balart, in the center, flanked by his four sons. The son on the left is a powerful banker named Rafael and the son on the right is a powerful television news anchor in Miami and at NBC News in New York named Jose. The son second from the left is Lincoln Diaz-Balart and the son second from the right is Mario Diaz-Balart. Since 1993, either at the same time or together, Lincoln & Mario, have represented Little Havana/Miami in the United States Congress as fanatically powerful Counter Revolutionary fanatics just like their father Rafael.

      This photo shows Rafael Diaz-Balart in the center after he fled the Cuban Revolution and became a very rich and powerful man in both Florida and Spain. Also, that is his father who also was named Rafael and was once the mayor of Bane, Cuba. On the top-right is  Lincoln Diaz-Balart who was born 66-years-ago in Havana in 1954 when his dad was a key Minister in the Batista dictatorship. In Miami/Little Havana and then in the U. S. Congress and to this day in June-2021 Lincoln has been an unchecked and powerful force in enriching and empowering Miami/Little Havana while also trying to dethrone the Revolutionary Cubans on the island. On the lower-right is Mario Diaz-Balart, Lincoln's younger brother who also easily got to the U. S. Congress as an unchecked and powerful Counter Revolutionary. HOW POWERFUL? Well, in the U. S. Congress today -- June 7-2021 -- Mario scared Antony Blinken, the top official in President Biden's government. Permit me to explain:

     The photo, headline and date shown above says: "State Department Will Continue To Pressure Cuba...Tracey Eaton...June 7, 2021." It was written by Tracey Eaton, the brilliant journalist who is now a beloved Journalism Professor at Flagler College in Florida...and Eaton remains a renowned journalist and a rare one who has both the expertise and courage to write honestly about Cuba. In his last few articles Tracey Eaton has documented how the new Biden administration has used his Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, the same way as the Trump administration used Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, which is to powerfully continue to enrich & empower selected Cuban-Americans while also still continuing to commit genocide against masses of families on the island. The grilling and intimidation by Congressman Mario Diaz-Balart of Antony Blinken today shamed the U. S. and Democracy but pointed out the grip that Little Havana has on the Biden presidency, just as it has dictated America's genocidal policies against innocent Cubans, especially during the three Bush administrations and the one Trump administration.

       If you love democracy enough to read Tracey Eaton's words depicted below on June 7, 2021, you will see how Biden's Secretary of State Antony Blinken today assured Counter Revolutionary zealot Mario Diaz-Balart that the Biden presidency will, like the previous Trump presidency, continue to do Little Havana's biding in enriching and empowering Counter Revolutionary Cubans while continuing Trump's genocide against Cuban families on the island.

      Above, the June 7-2021 introduction by great journalist Tracey Eaton and the Q & A in which Little Havana's Mario Diaz-Balart intimidated and scared President Biden's top foreign-affairs official, Secretary of State Antony Blinken, should serve as a reminder, I believe, that Little Havana's control of the USA's Cuban policies, even after a Democratic administration has replaced a Republican administration in Washington, is becoming tantamount to the power that Mario Diaz-Balart's dad Rafael had in the 1950's in the Batista dictatorship. Since this has happened since Biden replaced Trump as President, there have been whispers in Miami/Little Havana about not only recapturing Havana but also taking control of Washington, first just regarding Cuban policy, which is now apparent, But SECONDLY regarding everything else, which seems more-and-more feasible as the Biden presidency moves ahead.

      During the Trump presidency that ended on Jan. 20-2021, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo dutifully kept announcing increasing the genocide against Cubans on the island while also greatly enriching and empowering Little Havana Cubans. The Trump administration carried out 243 sanctions against Cubans in Cuba or for Cubans in Little Havana. For example, the cruel U. S. Embargo began in 1962 for purpose of starving, depriving, and making miserable the Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their revolutionary government. The original purpose of the Embargo, as proved by de-classified U. S. documents, continues to this day except for the fact that the Cubans have not risen up to overthrow their government. But the infamous Helms-Burton Act, written by lawyers acting at the behest of Little Havana's billionaire Jorge Mas Canosa and Congressman Lincoln Diaz-Balart, was passed in 1996 and since then has severely enriched and empowered Little Havana Cubans and severely harmed masses of Cubans in Cuba. BUT GUESS WHAT? The Helms-Burton Act has a clause called Title 3 that even the two-term Little Havana-aligned George W. Bush administration refused to activate because even Bush considered it too genocidal to inflict on masses of Cubans on the island although Bush, of course, approved the added means that Title 3 provided for Little Havana Cubans to sue U. S. or FOREIGN companies. But while even the Bush presidency refused to activate Title 3, Trump & Pompeo activated Title 3, which has officially imposed genocide on masses of people on the island and, indeed, has also made is easier for Little Havana Cubans to sue even foreign companies. For example, already in June of 2021 a Swiss company, without even going to a court in Miami to adjudicate it, has agreed to a cash settlement on a case by a Cuban family in Florida. And also, to make it easier for Little Havana Cubans to almost sue anyone they want to sue, in the closing days of the Trump presidency Pompeo announced that Cuba was put on the U. S. List of Terrorist Nations, which remains a joke beneficial to only Little Havana-aligned Cubans and putting Cuba on the Terror List makes it easier for Cubans in the U. S. to sue companies, including foreign companies. Many pay up and settle cases because of the U. S. influence around the world economically.

  As of January 20-2021, Antony Blinken has been President Joe Biden's Secretary of State. Many...yes, billions of decent people in the world...hoped that the Democrats that replaced the Republican leaders in Washington would roll back the genocide imposed by the Trump-Pompeo administration on Cuban families. But it hasn't and WON'T HAPPEN!! You see, the Little Havana Cubans who have had the money and power to dictate Cuban policy to the Republicans since 1959 now have the money and power to also dictate Cuban policy to the Democrats. And, unfortunately, the money-crazed U. S. government is ONLY a TWO-PARTY POLITICAL SYSTEM. In other words, in June of 2021 Cuban families on the island are screwed while Cubans in Little Havana Rule the Roost!!

Biden Replicates Trump's Cuban Genocide

Menendez Replaces Rubio As U.S. Cuban Dictator!!!

As Democrats Replace Republicans in the White House!!

    From January of 2017 till January of 2021 Republican President Donald Trump anointed Republican Senator Marco Rubio from Little Havana/Miami as the Cuban dictator on U. S. soil. During all those four years Rubio, facing no checks-and-balances from the rest of the U. S. government, was totally permitted to elevate the cruel 6-decade-old U. S. Embargo against Cuba into a genocidal Blockade of Cuba, which he did!!! During those four years, of course, Rubio's hometown immeasurably increased its already very powerful economic and political base.

       But to the surprise of some, since January 20th of 2021 new Democratic President Joe Biden has anointed Democratic Senator Bob Menendez from Union City/Newark as the new Cuban dictator on U. S. soil. Without a whimper from the propaganda-obsessed mainstream U. S. media nor from the thoroughly propagandized U. S. citizens, the nexus of Little Havana/Miami with Union City/Newark -- the two U. S. Counter Revolutionary Cuban enclaves that have profited the most economically and politically in the U. S. since 1959's victorious Cuban Revolution -- now seem poised to be able to capture Washington even though recapturing Havana has incredibly somehow escaped their grasp!!!

       Secretary of State Mike Pompeo dutifully carried out President Donald Trump's unending and genocidal policies against Cuban families. And as Secretary of State and as Trump's top official on foreign affairs, Pompeo controlled vast tax dollars as well as asinine new U. S. policies designed to vastly help friendly Cuban-Americans and designed to vastly hurt Cubans on the island, all to appease and benefit the rich and powerful Counter Revolutionary zealots.

       But, incredibly, since January 20-2021 Antony Blinken, the new Secretary of State under President Joe Biden, has been just as vicious as his predecessor Pompeo when it comes to hurting Cubans on the island while, at every junction, appeasing the most vicious Counter Revolutionary Cubans, especially the Democrat Menendez but also the Republican Rubio!!! With no mainstream media in the U. S. having the guts or integrity to report accurately on U.S.-Cuban relations, headlines in the past week from Tracey Eaton, the great journalist and professor in Florida, continue to be rare insights into the lucrative but genocidal U. S. assault's on the Cuban people.

      If you happen to be a dissident in Cuba or a Counter Revolutionary zealot in the U. S., you have massive forums, including most of the mainstream media, to tell the world: {1} How the U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in Cuba in the 1950's was the greatest government in the history of the world; and {2} that the Cuban revolutionary government since 1959 is the worst government in the history of the world. {Those remain the prime propaganda tools that have been so effective in the U. S. since 1959}. But, of course, if you happen be Manuel Tejeda who happens believe that a handful of rich benefactors in a powerful nation should not be permitted to commit genocide on masses of innocent people in a much-smaller nation...well, in the United States you simple don't have a voice, except when you write a sign or take to Social Media to make your opinions known. Also, Manuel Tejeda runs an organization, NEMO, that continues to gain powerful support in his herculean efforts to END THE EMBARGO ON CUBA.

      If you visit them on their Social Media pages or follow their street protests against the genocide 'LEGALLY' aimed at innocent Cuban families on the island, you might get to know Manuel Tejeda and Carlos Lazo. The mainstream U. S. media essentially is unable or unwilling to let you know that great Americans like these two men exist. Manuel Tejeda and Carlos Lazo passionately oppose profitable genocide against Cuban families...but, of course, in the United States their opinions are not supposed to exist.

     A Cuban-American professor in Seattle, Carlos Lazo has ridden his bicycle 3,000 miles to Washington, along with some of his students, to beg the White House and members of Congress to end the genocidal Embargo against the island of Cuba. Of course, among those who won't listen to Carlos Lazo have been first President Trump and now President Biden.

      This past Sunday -- May 31st, 2021 -- bicyclists in Havana, inspired by America's Carlos Lazo, are shown above protesting the U. S. Embargo, which Cubans call a Blockade. As you can see above, everyday Cubans watched from the balconies of their homes as the bicyclists passed by. That same day, in addition to Havana, major cities such as London, Toronto, Los Angeles, Madrid, etc., etc., had similar protests.

     Meanwhile, everyday farmers and other Cubans on the island are the prime targets of the USA's Cuban policies designed to enrich and empower certain people at the expense of more decent, but also more vulnerable, people. During both the Trump & Biden presidencies the U. S. has taken advantage of the COVID Pandemic to tighten the genocide against Cuban families on the island.

    In America's money-crazed Two-Party Political System, the Republican Marco Rubio has now been replaced by the Democrat Bob Menendez as the Cuban dictator in the United States. Americans who are either too afraid or too stupid to admit that basic fact in June of 2021 are actually harming the United States democracy just as much as they are harming Cubans on the island. But...who gives a damn? As this new "news" headline below indicates, Rubio and Menendez can routinely ram whatever pro-Little Havana/anti-Havana bill in the Senate they choose...and, of course, the White House will quickly second the motion!!!!
