Odds Are In His Favor Now!!
The sole publisher of Cubaninsider, Rich Haney, has passionately studied Cuba day and night since the 1980s and he has visited the island. He is a fiercely pro-democracy conservative Republican from Virginia and he believes the Cuban Revolution and Revolutionary Cuba say more about the United States than they say about Cuba.

Pompeo's Cuban War
It's Gutlessness Is Unconscionable!!
{UPDATED: Sunday, June 23, 2019}
{UPDATED: Sunday, June 23, 2019}
The photo above was taken Thursday -- June 20, 2019 -- by Saul Loeb for the AFP News Agency. I believe every democracy-loving American should study and try to comprehend the News Conference conducted by the USA's Secretary of State Mike Pompeo. There are a FEW PROBLEMS for the USA in the Middle East and elsewhere but Pompeo Thursday concentrated on fomenting his long-desired WAR AGAINST CUBA. After imposing Helms-Burton Title 3 sanctions designed to starve Cubans on the island once and for all, Pompeo today slapped Cuba on the USA's punitive blacklist of nations that engage in HUMAN TRAFFICKING. Incredibly, Pompeo added one other nation -- dear friend Saudi Arabia -- to that list...even while the USA sells billions of dollars in ultra-modern military weapons to the aggressive Saudis. The 55-year-old Mike Pompeo has LONG desired to starve-punish-eviscerate Cubans on the island to appease radical Cubans in Little Havana/Miami...and that includes Pompeo's past roles as a Republican anti-Cuban war-monger when he was...CIA Director, in the U. S. Congress from 2011 till 2017, and now as Trump's omnipotent Secretary of State.
Americans who do not take time to study the montage shown above are, I believe, Americans who don't care one iota about their Democracy. In the middle above is Mike Pompeo and he is flanked by four other extremely obsessed anti-Cuban war-mongers who have been anointed by President Trump into ultra-powerful positions to make war against several smaller nations -- especially against Cuba as directed by Little Havana's Marco Rubio.
Secretary of State Mike Pompeo loves Chairman Kim because North Korea has nuclear weapons. But picking on little weak nations like Cuba is Pompeo's cup of tea.
For the United States of America to allow self-serving Cuban-obsessed lightweights like Marco Rubio and Mike Pompeo to dictate Cuban policies that hurt the vast majority of Cubans, Cuban-Americans, and Americans is a GROSS INSULT to Democracy. Yet, a cowardly generation of Americans meekly allow it to happen...and do so without even attempting to judge Mike Pompeo's Marco Rubio-directed News Conference today. It's truly amazing; INCREDIBLY SAD!!
Recently the 30 Major League Baseball teams in the United States signed an agreement with Cuba's Baseball Association in a totally decent and herculean effort to reduce gross HUMAN TRAFFICKING of Cuba's wealth of baseball talent coming to the U. S. to play baseball. But the Little Havana lightweight Marco Rubio dictated that the Trump administration block the sane MLB-Cuba agreement. After that, of course, the HUMAN TRAFFICKERS who already loved Rubio loved him more than ever.
An America that allows Marco Rubio to dictate President Trump's genocidal Cuban policies is an America that favors Human Traffickers over DEMOCRACY while, as happened today, punishing Cuba for being a HUMAN TRAFFICKER. Incredible...and sad!!
A decent and brave American President.
But then came Trump.
Then came genocidal dangers.
Little Havana got its war-monger.
LITTLE HAVANA's WAR ON HAVANA.
Democracy? "What's democracy?"
Russia-US Venezuelan Faceoff
And Will Either Risk War?
The Russian Ambassador to the United States, Vladimir Zaemski, has just had some interesting things to say about the U.S.-Russia standoff in Venezuela. His words are very interesting because many presumed the USA's desired regime-change in Venezuela -- from the troubled but Russia-friendly Maduro to the ambitious U.S.-friendly Guaido -- would have taken place as far back as January when the Trump administration insisted Guaido was/is Venezuela's rightful President. Now the U. S. claims it hasn't happened because POOR LITTLE CUBA is keeping Maduro afloat. Of course, it's the Big Boy, meaning Russia, that has stalled Trump's and Miami's designs on oil-rich but destitute and deeply U.S.-sanctioned Venezuela. So, here is what Vladimir Zaemski said to the U. S. and the world about Russia's current Venezuelan position:
"The U. S. is lying when it says Russia has a new military contract with Venezuela. Our only military-technical deal with Venezuela was in 2001 with Hugo Chavez, but it is still valid. Saying such things, and saying tiny Cuba is the big military power keeping Maduro in office is stupid. It's a pretext in Washington to create a military situation. It bespeaks of John Bolton, the world's most dangerous war idiot and...what's his title, National Security Adviser? Well, our National Security adviser Franz klinsevich calls Bolton a lying conspiracy freak, and so do a lot of Americans in Washington, I see. And I call Bolton Mr. Trump's accident waiting to happen in Latin America...and that's a spot America doesn't need a war...uh, I mean a accident."
Yes, while the U. S. has the world's strongest overall military, Russia can match the U. S. {some say exceed} the U. S. when it comes to nuclear power. Assuming Americans are stupid and sufficiently proselytized, Trump claims little Cuba is the POWER keeping Maduro afloat in Venezuela but, in reality, of course, it's Russia.
Don't be fooled by Trump Tweets about Russia removing "most of their people from Venezuela." Russia still has enough "people" in Venezuela to keep Trump from turning his war-mongers like Bolton and Abrams on Venezuela, at least at the moment.
But easily the stupidest and most dangerous thing Trump has done during the first 2.5 years of his presidency was anointing Little Havana lightweight Marco Rubio as the USA's Cuban dictator in an obvious trade-off for Rubio supposedly being able to deliver Florida's massive haul of 29 electoral votes that are considered vital to Trump's 2020 reelection. Rubio's entire economic and political career has been based on dancing to every tune sung by the Counter Revolutionary Cuban extremists who rule his hometown of Little Havana in Miami. Rubio, as indicated by the graphic above, views the regime-change in Venezuela as the prelude to the regime-change in Cuba that the Little Havana extremists have violently championed since January of 1959.
Months ago, as shown above, Rubio was so convinced that his regime-change in Venezuela was so imminent...just hours away...that he went to the Venezuelan-Colombian border to celebrate. But photos like this reminded the world that a Rubio in charge of America's modern Caribbean and Latin American imperialism might herald a return of vicious U.S.-backed dictators from the historical past such as...Batista in Cuba, Trujillo in the Dominican Republic, Somoso in Nicaragua, Pinochet in Chile, ETC., ETC., ECT.
Since January, the U. S. has had enough major allies, including Latin American superpower Brazil as well as well-armed Colombia and the 28-nation European Union, to bring about the USA's desired regime-change in Venezuela. But there has been one huge problem: The people the Trump administration STUPIDLY put in charge of regime-changes in Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua were only extremely biased and well-known WAR-MONGERS. The Little Havana-dictated and Cuba-obsessed Rubio was Trump's biggest mistake but study the montage below and you will understand why supposedly easy 2019 regime-changes in Venezuela, Cuba, and Nicaragua are not all that EASY.
In the middle above is Juan Guaido and he is shown flanked by John Bolton and Elliott Abrams. Guido is Miami's and Trump's choice as the President of Venezuela. Bolton and Abrams have well-known reputations as the greatest war-mongers in America with Bolton, Trump's National Security Adviser, and Abrams, Trump's Envoy to Venezuela, both famed for advocating military operations against smaller nations such as Cuba and now Venezuela. When Trump ignorantly put Bolton and Abrams in charge of regime-changes in Cuba, Venezuela, and Nicaragua, snags were sure to follow because there is no official in the Caribbean or Latin America unaware of the reputations Bolton and Abrams have earned. Even moderately respected Republican diplomats that Trump could have named would have skirted America's reputation for past fierce regime-changes from 1953 deep into the 1970s, with 1973's coup that killed popular democratically elected President Salvador Allende in Chile to install the U.S.-friendly but infamously murderous dictator General Pinchot for 17 bloody years still being most vividly remembered throughout all of Latin America although Americans to this day are not supposed to GOOGLE such sordid details. But since then, opposition leaders in Latin America, like Juan Guaido now in Venezuela, hang on the phone to Miami and Washington supporters trying to solicit money and military might from the USA to, if necessary, install them the way Pinochet was installed in Chile.

Go back to the top of this post and re-read what Russia's Ambassador to the United States, Vladimir Zaemski, had to say this week about Trump's and America's National Security Adviser John Bolton. If Americans didn't cringe when Trump resurrected a plethora of anti-Cuban war-mongers from the old Bush dynasty like Bolton, Abrams, Reich, Claver-Carone, etc., etc., rest assured that all of the USA's friends and all of the USA's enemies DID CRINGE.

Florida Extends Batista Dictatorship
From 1952 Till 2019!!
{With Only A Slight 1959 Pause}
The Havana-based Gente de Zona band -- consisting of Alexander Delgado and Randy Malcom -- is one of the best, most honored, and most popular musical acts in the Western Hemisphere. They were signed up to perform on July 4th in Hialeah, Florida, and most Cuban-Americans in the area were anxious to see them. But a handful of generational exiles from 1959's ousted Batista dictatorship in Cuba continue to dictate Florida's politics and Florida's economy. Thus, the mayor of Hialeah this week -- on June 17th, 2019 -- canceled the appearance of Gente de Zona.
Yes, the Gente de Zona duo {Randy Malcom and Alexander Delgado} are super-talented musicians and they are nice guys. But a handful of Batistiano-types in Florida in 2019 are not embarrassed by resembling the Batista dictatorship that ruled Cuba from 1952 till 1959 when the Cuban Revolution shocked the world by booting the Batista-Mafia rulers off the island, where their quick resurrection in South Florida reshaped America by proving to be an extension of the Batista dictatorship on U. S. soil. The victims, not to mention the U. S. democracy itself, are endless...with Randy Malcom and Alexander Delgado merely the latest. But saddest of all from the overall standpoint is the fact that the vast majority of Americans and Cuban-Americans, through three generations now, have been reduced to meekly accepting such insults to democracy. "Uh, ye...yes, I a...agree. If, uh...Randy and Alexander sti...still...li...live in Cuba...they wo...would...be...be a gr...great th...threat to...to A...America...if they pe...performed in Fl...Florida...on Ju...July 4th. We...uh, a...agree wi...with you...Ma...Mayor, sir."
In 1959 Fidel chased the Batistianos.....
all the way to Miami!!!

Bolton's Cuban War
A Step Closer This Week!!
It should have come as no surprise, almost as soon as he INCREDIBLY was named President Trump's National Security Adviser, that John Bolton rushed to Little Havana in Miami, stood before a 1962 BAY OF PIGS ATTACK BANNER, and declared war on Cuba as well as Cuba's two main Latin American allies, Venezuela and Nicaragua. Bolton is easily the most vehement war-monger the U. S. has seen in decades and his #1 target, it seems, has always been Cuba. During the George W. Bush presidency, Bolton concocted wild schemes trying to persuade Bush to execute a regime-change in Cuba, which even Bush resisted militarily. But PRESIDENT TRUMP presented extreme anti-Cuban war-mongers like Bolton their best chance to recapture Cuba for this latest generation of Cuban-exile extremists in Miami. Bolton actually thought that would have occurred months ago when it looked like the Miami-stalwarts had gotten their regime-change in deeply troubled Venezuela, Bolton's preclude to his prime target -- CUBA. In recent weeks, with the activation of Helms-Burton Title 3, the Miami strategy is to starve Cubans on the island to soften up the parameters for the regime-change. The Venezuelan economic collapse has essentially curtailed its vital oil shipments to Cuba already but Bolton wants to reduce it to zero. He told the Washington Free Beacon yesterday {June 17, 2019}, "We plan to do more to prevent the transport of oil from Venezuela to Cuba." That seems to push Bolton, and thus the USA, closer to military action to get his regime-change in Cuba.
More and more, using its unmatched economic and military influence, Trump's USA has lined up numerous regional nations to help, or at least not hinder, its planned regime-change in Cuba. From a military standpoint, regional powers Brazil and Colombia have emerged as the prime U. S. allies against little Cuba. The photo above shows U. S. warships off the northern coast of Colombia, which borders Venezuela. The Colombia embassy has announced what it calls an "Association of the South Command Station" that apparently is a military alliance with the U. S. that threatens Venezuela...and Cuba. The Venezuelans and Cubans now meshing in Miami are in concert regarding Venezuela's vast oil reserves and in goading famed war-monger John Bolton into executing his three promised regime -changes -- Venezuela first, Cuba second, and Nicaragua third.
It is for certain that famed war-monger John Bolton keeps his bespectacled eyes on his boss, President Trump, to make sure he still has clearance to finish-off his regime-change in Cuba. If that were not so, surely the comment Bolton made this week -- June 17-2019 -- to the Washington Free Beacon would have not been so explicit about shutting off Venezuela's remaining oil shipments to Cuba.
This photo early in his first term revealed quickly that Trump believes his 2016 election was made possible by Little Havana's deliverance of Florida's massive haul of electoral votes...and further, Trump believes his 2020 re-election pivots on turning the USA's Cuban policies 100% over to only the most extremist Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Little Havana. This photo shows President Trump quickly in 2017 rushing to Miami and signing documents that made those assurances to the Counter Revolutionary extremists led by the three men directly behind Trump in this photo -- 3 fiercely anti-Cuban extremists Mario Diaz-Balart, Rick Scott, and Marco Rubio. A U. S. democracy that allows three men of that stripe to dictate Cuban policies should, perhaps, also stoop to allowing them to dictate the rest of America's policies.
Cuba's Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez says, "An American government that gives free reins to a John Bolton to make his long-desired wars against smaller nations may be more of a danger to the United States itself than to small nations like Cuba. But, of course, well have to wait and see, won't we?"
While Americans since 1959 have been incessantly programmed and propagandized to believe every narrative out of Little Havana concerning Cuba, perhaps it is time to heed those words Bruno Rodriguez said this week about John Bolton and The Bolton Doctrine, which calls for the U. S. to use its economic and military might to make every small nation, starting with CUBA, to submit to its will. And so, as a democracy-loving American, permit me to repeat Bruno Rodriguez's words:
"An American government that gives free reins to a John Bolton to make his long-desired war against smaller nations may be more dangerous to the United States itself than to small nations like Cuba. But, of course, we'll have to wait and see, won't we?"
I reduced the size of that quotation because I'm not sure, even as sane at it appears, that it is healthy for democracy-lovers in the USA to depart from Little Havana's Cuban narratives. Yes, the United States of America -- The Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave -- has been and continues to be drastically changed by...the pretext for the 1898 Spanish-American War; the 1903 theft of Guantanamo Bay from Cuba; the siccing of the Mafia on Cuba in 1952 during the U.S.-backed Batista-Mafia rule; the 1959 triumph of the Cuban Revolution that chased the Batistiano-Mafiosi leaders to their new capital of Little Havana in Miami; the 1961 Bay of Pigs attack on Cuba that failed to recapture the island but humiliated the attackers; the 1962 economic blockade of Cuba that exists to this day in June of 2019 to starve and deprive Cubans on the island; the 1976 car-bombing of Emilio Milian in Miami after the bravest Cuban-American journalist criticized vicious terrorists acts against Cubans such as the bombing in 1976 of the civilian Cubana Flight 455 that killed all 73 on board; the 1980's anointment of vicious Havana-born Little Havana Cuban extremist Jorge Mas Canosa as the USA's Cuban dictator on USA soil; Canosa, who emerged as a BILLIONAIRE himself, quickly engineered legal laws such as Radio-TV Marti in Miami that from the 1980's till today sucks tons of tax dollars from Washington-to-Miami to benefit well-connected Cuban Counter Revolutionaries {and, uh, yes, your Congressman knows all about that}; it is also Canosa's 1996 Helms-Burton Bill that to this day in June of 2019 is still designed to GREATLY ENRICH Cubans in Little Havana while GREATLY STARVING Cubans in Havana; and, of course, the 2017 anointment by President Trump of Little Havana extremist Marco Rubio as the USA's new Cuban dictator on USA soil replicates the Bush dynasty's anointment of Canosa as the USA's first Cuban dictator on U.S. soil.
In June of 2019 Mario Diaz-Balart and Lincoln Diaz-Balart from Little Havana in Miami have more to do with setting America's Cuban policies than the rest of us 325 million Americans have combined. Mario and Lincoln are the rich and powerful Counter Revolutionary sons of Rafael Diaz-Balart who was a key Minister in the ousted Batista dictatorship who, beginning in January of 1959, quickly became one of the richest and most powerful Counter Revolutionaries in Little Havana, USA.
In other words, America:
