Begs the Wall Street Journal War-Monger!!!
The unrelenting Mary O'Grady remains the prime media propagandist demanding that President Biden forget little issues such as Covid, Afghanistan, global warming, etc., and get on with the recapture of CUBA!!!
As the exalted Opinions Editor of the powerful Wall Street Journal, Mary O'Grady is responsible for these blistering headlines pleading with President Biden to take advantage of the enormous troubles that Cubans on the island are currently having as they try to survive both the Trump-Biden tightening of the Blockade while the deadly COVID pandemic is ravaging the vulnerable nearby island.
"Biden Is Failing Cuba's Uprising""The White House is so far unwilling
to challenge the U. S. left that likes the regime."
Of course, Mary O'Grady apparently massively loved the Batista-Mafia regime that spawned the Cuban Revolution's victory on January 1, 1959. From that day to this day -- August 16, 2021 -- there have always been enough Cubans on the island to remember what the U. S.-backed Batista-Mafia rule of the island did to them that they, incredibly, have prevented all the efforts by Washington and the transplanted Batistianos to recapture their island. In mid-August of 2021, Mary O'Grady is still claiming that...all the Cubans on the island want a return of the Batista regime and want the superpower United States to recapture the island ANY DAY NOW!!!!! If that was true, Revolutionary Rule on the island would have ended many decades ago.
So...in mid-August of 2021 while both the U. S. and Cuba both have other major problems...this {above} is what Mary O'Grady and the mighty Wall Street Journal is telling its readers. She wants President Biden to recapture Cuba while all the continuing millions of tax dollars promoting anti-revolutionary dissent on the island are helping the expanded Blockade and COVID making Cuba vulnerable to an easy overthrow.
In the last paragraph above, Mary O'Grady's blatant lie says it is "nonsense" to say that the Embargo on very vulnerable Cuban families is cruel. And in the next sentence she says: "The regime can buy all the food and medicine it wants from the U. S. and can freely trade with the world." Every letter and every word in that sentence is a blatant and cruel lie. Recently, for example, Cuba tried to buy 30,000 syringes from a company in Sweden but the extreme financial influence worldwide of the U. S. and its Embargo ended that deal Cuba had with Sweden!!
As you see above, the WSJ and Mary O'Grady claim that it is "nonsense" for anyone -- such as Congresswoman "Ms. Ocasio-Cortez" to say truthfully that "The embargo is absurdly cruel." Actually, of course, the entire world -- except for a few self-serving propagandists such as Mary O'Grady -- clearly understand that the embargo against Cuban families is indeed ABSURDLY CRUEL.
When high-profile propagandists posing as real journalist can write words such as Mary O'Grady's lies shown above, perhaps the U. S. democracy is in even more trouble than the terribly targeted Cuban families on the island.
In the United States of America, when the mainstream media routinely is allowed to promote self-serving propaganda about Cuba as shown above, it is, I think, more of an attack on America than it is an attack on Cuba.
Meanwhile in Cuba today -- Aug. 16, 2021 -- elderly Cubans especially are being vaccinated.
And in Cuba today -- Aug. 16, 2021 -- young children are also being given priority. In one recent day the 98 COVID deaths included a 3-year-old girl and a 1-year-old girl, plus a young woman who had just given birth. Is this the convenient situation that Mary O'Grady is insisting that Biden take advantage of to recapture the island as OPPOSED to helping the island instead of expanding the "absurdly cruel Blockade?"
Regardless of what a handful of powerful people such as MARY O'GRADY claim, the rest of the decent people around the world agree with this ubiquitous image: When a powerful nation takes advantage of a deadly pandemic to expand its cruel Embargo against masses of people on a much-smaller nation, it is ABSURDLY CRUEL!!!
