Pompeo Puppets Rubio's Cuban Genocide

All Washington Insiders Are Aware!!
     As President Trump's Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo is America's top Foreign Affairs official, but on a daily basis it is clear that Little Havana's contribution to the U. S. Senate, Marco Rubio, dictates Pompeo's announcements and policies when it comes to the Caribbean, Latin America, and the Western Hemisphere. That is because Cuba is a part of the Caribbean, Latin America, and the Western Hemisphere and Rubio was sent to the U. S. Senate to help Miami's rich and powerful Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Little Havana to at last regain control of Cuba.
  During the 2016 Republican presidential debates Trump and Rubio called each other vile, demeaning names and to this day they hate each other.
      But in January of 2017 when Trump took over as President, he famously, like other Republican presidents before him, either was too afraid of Little Havana or simply knew he needed Little Havana's political and financial power to remain President; and specifically Trump knew he needed Florida's crucial 29 Electoral Votes in order to be re-elected to a second presidential terms on November 3rd, 2020. Therefore, it is now a part of history that Trump, although he hates "Little Marco" and considers him a back-stabber, told all his top staffers "To take care of Rubio." And that, incredibly, is how Rubio for almost four years as essentially been America's Batista-like dictator of Cuba.
    As the dictator of Cuba on U. S. soil, Marco Rubio persuaded President Trump to activate Title III of Helms-Burton, which elevated the U. S. economic embargo of Cuba, which has been in place since 1962, into a genocidal blockade of the island. Even President George W. Bush could not be persuaded by Little Havana zealots to activate Title III because, obviously, even Bush considered Title III to be designed to legalize genocide against masses of innocent families in Cuba while, of course, also making already rich Little Havana Cubans even richer by allowing them to routinely sue Cuba-related issues in Florida courts.
    Therefore in the minds of many Democracy-loving Americans, including me, Trump should have been impeached the day he allowed Rubio to goad him into activating Title III. Of course, the extreme left-wing and awesomely funded mainstream media -- NBC/MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and The New York Times -- have every day since Trump became President been trying to totally destroy him...and those four media powerhouses have billions-upon-billions of dollars because their owners include the world's all-time richest person, Jeff Bezos; Mexico's all-time richest person Carlos Slim, and ultra-rich corporations such as Disney and Times-Warner. Every hour of every day since January of 2017 those media moguls have tried to eliminate Trump with relentless and vile propaganda regarding things such as a phone call Trump made to Ukraine, his alleged collusion with Russia, etc., etc. But...apparently the NBC/MSNBC, CNN, The Washington Post, and The New York Times propagandists are too afraid of Little Havana to explain to the American people the real reason Trump should have been impeached from office and then held further accountable in a court of law for activating the genocidal Title III on totally innocent Cuban families on the island...to appease Little Havana zealots like Rubio, who can act as America's Batista-like Cuban dictator as long as Trump remains President of the United States...or when another Republican, maybe the scary Rubio himself, attains the position.
     In that milieu, Trump's top official, Secretary of State Mike Pompeois shamefully at the mercy of Marco Rubio when it comes to Cuba, the Caribbean, and Latin America. That's because Rubio's plans to recapture Cuba for Little Havana is to make sure that other nations in the Caribbean and Latin America are persuaded to cease being friends or allies with Cuba...or to simply not object to the annihilation of Cubans on the island.
     When it comes to Cuba, the Caribbean, and Latin America, Secretary of State Mike Pompeo clearly appears to allow Little Havana's U. S. Senator Marco Rubio to dictate all of his policies, announcements, and Tweets. It is apparent that Rubio and his Little Havana mentors were aware that yesterday was August 13th and obviously they knew that was a perfect day for Pompeo to announce the latest in an endless string of State Department's decisions designed to starve Cubans on the island to appease Cubans in Little Havana. And, for sure, that's how the State Department celebrated August 13th. The celebration was in the form of a August 13th, 2020 Tweet by Mike Pompeo. It said:
          "Today I asked the Secretary of Transportation to suspend private charter flights between the U. S. and Cuba. The Castro regime uses tourism and travel funds to finance its abuses and interference in Venezuela. Dictators cannot be allowed to benefit from U. S. Travels."
       The reason Mike Pompeo's State Department and Marco Rubio's Little Havana apparently wanted their latest starvation announcement against Cuba on August 13th was because August 13th, 2020, was the 94th anniversary of Fidel Castro's birthday. For sure, Pompeo, Rubioand Little Havana are aware that, although he died four years ago at age 90, it is still Fidel Castro's revolution and Fidel Castro's island. Announcing and actually implementing the latest starvation measure against Cubans on the island on a day Cubans on the island were at gatherings and social media to  celebrate Fidel Castro's birthday was not coincidental, of course. So August 13th, of course, made a lot of sense to Dictator Rubio and, of course, Secretary of State Pompeo obliged Rubio with the exact Tweet listed above.
      In 2016 as Democratic U. S. President Barack Obama normalized relations with Cuba, this JetBlue flight to Cuba was the first time in almost six decades the U. S. had allowed such flights to the Caribbean's largest and most beautiful island. As Obama's term ended and Trump's term began in January of 2017, Cuba was enjoying record tourism numbers. But, of course, Trump immediately began reversing every positive thing Obama had done for Cubans on the island.
    All Republican U. S. presidents since the 1950s have been tightly aligned with, first, the brutal and thieving Batista-Mafia dictatorship in Cuba and then, after 1959, with Little Havana, which was quickly created in Miami beginning in January of 1959 after the Cuban Revolution defeated the US-backed Batista-Mafia dictatorship. But not even the two-term George W. Bush administration allowed Little Havana to impose genocide against Cuban families on the island. But the Donald Trump administration has done that...and is still doing that...since he activated Title III of Helms-Burton.
     Like all Republican U. S. presidents, Trump has had to go to Little Havana in Miami and pay homage to even the BAY OF PIGS BATTLE FLAG 2506, even though Fidel Castro and the Cuban Revolution humiliated both the United States and Little Havana at the Bay of Pigs.
     ln winning things such as the Cuban Revolution and the Bay of Pigs Battle, and setting a few other newsworthy records...such as surviving an astronomical 638 assassination attempts...there is something else that Americans should know about Fidel Castro...and that is this: Most Cubans on the island since the 1950s support Fidel Castro vigorously and IF THAT WERE NOT TRUE, Little Havana would have recaptured Cuba many, many decades ago!!!
      Although he died at age 90 four years ago, it is still Fidel Castro's Cuba. Although Americans are not supposed to comprehend it, from January of 1959 until August of 2020 there have ALWAYS been enough Cubans on the island who prefer Fidel Castro's Revolutionary Cuba to a return of the Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Little Havana. Of course, since 1959 Little Havana has controlled the Cuban narrative in the United States and therefore Marco Rubio and other Little Havana zealots will deny all such facts. But I would like to hear Marco Rubio answer this question: From the 1950s till today, most of the Cubans on the island, such as the young woman worshipping Fidel above, supported Fidel and if that is NOT SO how in the hell could one little PUGNACIOUS island have held off the furious attempts of vicious Counter Revolutionary Cubans supported by the world's all-time richest and most powerful nation FOR ALL THESE DECADES.
       Of course, neither Secretary of State Mike Pompeo nor U. S. Cuban dictator Marco Rubio never have to explain to either the U. S. media or the the American people about HOW AND WHY little Revolutionary Cuba has survived for all these decades even though they and their powerful backers in Little Havana and in the White House include the richest and strongest nation in the history as their unchecked ally. But, of course, Pompeo and Rubio can use the 94th anniversary of Fidel Castro's birthday, August 13th, to make yet another genocidal unchecked LEGAL decision aimed at STARVING Cuban families on the island to induce them to submit to Little Havana or to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government to pave the way for the return of the hated dictatorship the Revolution chased off the island so long ago.
      When powerful puppets like Pompeo meekly and routinely follow the precise dictates of a Rubio, perhaps it is time for Democracy-lovers in the USA at least feel ashamed about the Little Havana-orchestrated images above: {1} The U. S. embargo against Cuba is the longest and cruelest embargo in history ever imposed by a powerful nation against a much-weaker nation; {2} the U. S. blockade of Cuba is the largest and longest genocidal blockade in history ever imposed by a powerful nation against a much-weaker nation; and {3} when neither the mainstream media nor the American citizens have the guts or intelligence to object to Title III/Helms-Burton, it was not only legalizing U. S. genocide against innocent Cuban families on the island, it was also akin to sawing a deadly circle around the Democracy that so many great Americans have fought and died for since the USA's own Revolutionary War against England.

Cuba and Its TWO Perils

 A Pandemic and a Blockade!!
Photo credit: Zander Zamora/EFE.
       Beyond a doubt, Cuba is the only nation in the whole world having to battle the international Coronavirus while also struggling against a genocidal Blockade being imposed by a handful of vicious U. S. Cubans, courtesy of the Trump administration because Trump expects to be rewarded with Florida's crucial 29 Electoral Votes that Trump needs if he hopes to get re-elected President of the United States on November 3rd, 2020.
          The photo above is used this weekend -- in early August of 2020 -- to illustrate several of the most important headlines related to the blockaded Caribbean island of Cuba. Those five important headlines this weekend are:
       ***"Cuba To Scrap 'Too Restrictive' Private-Sector Activities List As Economic Pressures Grow." This article is by Sarah Marsh for the London-based Reuters News Agency, which honestly and fairly reports from the island using honest and fair journalists.
            ***"Cuba Keeps Havana Airport Closed In Response To Spike In Coronavirus Cases." This weekend this article is from the Miami Herald, which shames journalism and democracy by routinely using its once-respected newspaper to only dispense extreme anti-Cuba propaganda, most of it written by its shameless anti-Cuban propagandist Nora Gamez Torres.
            ***"Cuban Borders To Continue Closed Until Further Notice." This article this weekend is by OnCubaNews, which is a good source of inside and accurate journalism related to the Caribbean's largest island.
        *** "Coronavirus Success Story Might Not Save the Cuban Economy." This article this weekend is by Foreign Policy {FP}, which is a fair and accurate source for Cuban news.
           ***"Cuba Reopened: When Will Air Canada Resume Flights & What Are The Entry Requirements." This article this weekend is by Travel Week, which is a fair and accurate source for Cuban news.
     The point I make...and one that Democracy-loving Americans cogently should one day comprehend, I think...is that a skilled and unbiased London-based journalist like Sarah Marsh is able to report accurately and fairly about and from Cuba. As a Democracy-loving American, I wish that was true of journalists in the United States!!
      In stark contrast to Sarah Marsh is Nora Gamez Torres, the prime Cuban propagandist at the Miami Herald who masquerades as a journalist.
     In article after article in the Miami Herald, Nora Gamez Torres tries to powerfully portray Revolutionary Cuba as the vilest and worst government in history while also powerfully implying that the brutal, thieving Batista-Mafia regime that ruled Cuba prior to the Cuban Revolution was the sweetest and best government in the history of the Western Hemisphere.
      In article after article in the Miami Herald Nora Gamez Torres claims that Counter Revolutionary rich and powerful Little Havana Cubans in Miami from Cuba {above) are the salt of the earth while even everyday Cubans in Cuba are the most vile creatures on earth.
     Unfortunately, Nora Gamez today represents the precipitous decline of honest journalism in the United States of America. Little Havana, a force in the USA since 1959, is not the only reason for that sorry development but it is certainly a primary cause. Thus, Nora Gamez...in English and Spanish, in the Miami Herald and its companion El Nuevo Herald...has never shown an iota of compassion for the totally innocent and vulnerable families, including mothers and babies, on the island. I sincerely believe that the American people themselves are most to blame for the current state of journalism in the United States, but compliant propaganda-dispensing and high-profile writers like Nora Gamez pretending to be real journalists shames America and Democracy even more than it shames the Caribbean nation of Cuba.
     1976 was a bloody year during an era when vicious and well-known Cuban terrorists in Miami, many of them on the U. S. government payrolls, were committing vile terrorism against totally innocent Cubans...and bragging about it. That included deadly murders such as the Oct.-1976 bombing of the Cuban airplane, Cubana Flight 455, that killed all 73 people on board, including two dozen teenage athletes returning to Cuba after winning Gold Medals in the Central American Championships. In 1976 the great and decent Cuban-American journalist-broadcaster Emilio Milian strongly denounced such blatant terrorism against totally innocent Cubans. And for that decency, Emilio Milian was car-bombed. It appears that such warnings to journalists regarding Cuban news has been heeded, for the most part, since 1976. Moreover, it appears that the U. S. Democracy is simply not capable of dealing with it. BUT YES, Emilio Milian is a part of U.S.-Cuban history that Americans need to know.
     For example, in 1976...in deference to Little Havana...the United States was unable to deal with vile terrorism against innocent Cubans by well-known and self-avowed Cuban terrorists connected to both Little Havana and to the United States government. The most famed terrorist, of many, historically tied to Orlando Bosch and Luis Posada Carriles was the terrorist bombing the Cuban civilian airplane -- Cubana Flight 455 -- in which all 73 people on board died. Please note that declassified CIA-USA documents proved that the U. S. government was aware about who was planning to bomb "a Cuban airliner."
      And declassified U. S. documents like the one above proved that Henry Kissinger and the U. S. government quickly knew who, in fact, had carried out the dastardly bombing of Cubana Flight 455.
     Immediately and to this day Caribbean and Latin American nations have begged "for justice" for the 73 victims of the terrorist bombing of Cubana Flight 455.
     This haunting photo shows a Cuban girl and her mother who were waiting at the Havana for the arrival of Cubana Flight 455 that included their teenage brother and son. This photo was taken right after they had been told that the plane had crashed into the ocean and that "there were no survivors." Yes, Cuban girls and mothers who have been victims of Cuban-American terrorists cry too.
     To this day the victims of the terrorist bombing of Cubana Flight 455 are mourned in Cuba and elsewhere in the Caribbean.
     And to this day, those who mourn the victims of Cubana Flight 455 are well aware that the two most notable and self-avowed Cuban-American anti-Cuban terrorists -- Orlando Bosch and Luis Posada Carriles -- lived out long and well-protected lives in Miami. And, of course, to this day those who helped shelter them, including the Bush dynasty, have never been nor will ever be held accountable for such things.
       Even if it is members of the rich and powerful Bush dynasty, I believe in a great Democracy that is necessary for the mainstream media and the citizens to hold people accountable. But since the 1950s that has not been the case when it comes to such things as terrorism in which innocent Cubans on the island are the victims. "Orlando Bosch? Who?" "Posada Carriles? Who?" INDEED!!
     And as long as certain Americans and Cuban-Americans can profit economically, politically, and/or revengefully from committing TERRORISM as well as imposing genocidal EMBARGOES and BLOCKADES against totally innocent Cubans on the island, it seems that the U. S. Democracy will also never be held accountable. After all, when such atrocities are backed by the world's economic and military Superpower, what can a small island or even the rest of the world do about it??????
      In 1959, after the triumph of the Cuban Revolution, fleeing Cubans bent on recapturing the island were sent to Fort Benning in Georgia and trained courtesy of U. S. taxpayers to be a part of Brigade 2506, which attacked Cuba at the Bay of Pigs in April of 1961. Vicious and famed Counter Revolutionary Cubans such as Felix Rodriguez and Luis Posada Carriles, as shown above, exited Fort Benning as 2nd Lieutenants and remained on tax payrolls for decades. But neither they nor Brigade 2506 ever recaptured Cuba...despite being supported by the richest and strongest nation in the world!!
     Even with declassified documents chronicling the exploits of U.S.-paid operatives/terrorists as Posada, only great non-U.S.-sources such as the London-based BBC fairly chronicle such episodes of U.S.-Cuban history.
    Should U. S. politicians such as those in the Bush dynasty be held accountable for their startling ties to the likes of Luis Posada Carriles?
     Every Republican politician seeking to be President of the United States must trek to Little Havana in Miami and bow before the elderly survivors of the Assault Brigade 2506, the infamous unit that humiliatingly lost the air, land, and sea attack at the Bay of Pigs in Cuba in 1961. So, digest the photo above of President Trump genuflecting and bowing extremely meekly and totally before the Assault Brigade 2506 banner. In America's two-party political system, Little Havana has total control of the Republican Party and, incredibly, the fiercely anti-Trump Democratic Party is, for the most part, too afraid to do anything about it. So, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO DEMOCRACY? And does this American generation give a damn?
