COVID Eases but COUP on Horizon!!

As Cuba Navigates Its 2 Perils!!

     This photo in Havana today shows Cubans thanking their scientists for producing the vaccines that they believe are greatly reducing the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.

   Today -- October 27th-2021 -- Cubans on the island continue to rejoice about the results of the intense vaccination program that appears to be drastically lessening the effects of the COVID-19 crisis. Today the COVID statistics reveal 9 deaths in the past 24 hours and 912 new cases, sharply down from previous days. Thus...Cuba has decided to resume classroom schooling on November 15th; to open its borders to international tourism on November 15th; and to hold military exercises on November 15th. Meanwhile, and not totally coincidental, an ultra-powerful and highly publicized "Protest" on the island is also set for November 15th-2021 that many believe will finally topple Revolutionary Cuba, which has ruled the island since 1959.
    As crucial Cuba-US conundrums close out October-2021, the Top Cuban Headlines for Oct. 27th show that the mainstream U. S. media -- as reflected above by NBC News and the Miami Herald -- pretends there are no positive vides from Cuba regarding things like the Pandemic but only negative vides such as the upcoming coup on Nov. 15th!! Today, as usual, London-based Reuters, which has four unbiased and superb journalists that report from Cuba, even reports on Cuba's positive results surrounding their own COVID vaccines. Of course, the Miami Herald and NBC News today are only concerned with promoting the Nov. 15th-2021 coup.
    Most mainstream U. S. media outlets, including NBC News, have extreme Counter Revolutionary 'journalists' such as Carmen Sesin as their primary Cuban propagandists. Above is Sesin's promotion about why the Nov. 15th COUP in Cuba is necessary.
   Yes, Cuba's president Miguel Diaz-Canel "accuses the U. S. of involvement" in the nationwide protests on the island set for November 15th-2021. Is he correct, partially correct, or totally wrong???
     On state Cuban media and on Social Media, there is an alleged phone call from Ramon Saul Sanchez to Yunior Garcia Aguilera related importantly to the November 15th Protests in Cuba. Yunior Garcia is the Cuban artist leading the November 15th-2021 Protests on the island while Ramon Saul is one of the all-time most-famed Counter Revolutionary Cubans ever to reside in Miami. The first two words in the interesting phone call are: "Yunior?" and "Si."
    The biography of Ramon Saul Sanchez is no secret and, as shown above, the excerpt above...as far I know...is never disputed...including: "As a fifteen-year-old, he joined the radical guerrilla group Alpha 66 in Miami."
     A simple Google search of "Alpha 66" will reveal pertinent aspects of U.S.-Cuban Relations since January of 1959.
    And whether or not the November 15th-2021 Protests, led by Yunior Garcia, succeed or fail to remove Cuba's Revolutionary government, it will be one of many such efforts that have existed since January 1st of 1959.
     And...in other words...the island of Cuba remains on October 27th-2021 what it has always been, Which Is: The largest, most pugnacious, and most interesting nation in the Caribbean!!!!

Cuba On Oct. 26-2021

Reacting to Threats Foreign & Domestic!!

       Today -- on October 26th-2021 -- the top leaders of Cuba made major and very topical speeches before an important session of the Cuban Parliament in Havana. The island's top leader -- Miguel Diaz-Canel -- reported that, "Thanks to our own scientists and vaccines we are winning our battles against the Covid-19 pandemic. And because of our own revolutionary citizens, we will win our battles against the herculean and well-funded efforts of the leaders in Miami and Washington to destroy our sovereign nation and our Revolution that, in 1959, was able to defeat a ruthless dictator, the Mafia, and the United States. We must now be as heroic as were our revolutionaries from 1953 till 1959."
 Then...in the three sentences shown above...President Miguel Diaz-Canel spoke directly about the next highly publicized "Protests" set for November 15th-2021 that he believes will "again" be organized and conducted by well-paid U. S. mercenaries. President Diaz-Canel told the Parliamentary members that they and the citizens must be prepared to stay peaceful "because" the mercenaries will try to provoke incidents in which they can video or photograph supposed police brutality "as always."
       As you can see in the first sentence, President Diaz-Canel also said: "There are enough revolutionaries here to face any type of demonstration that attempts to destroy the revolution. Our struggle is with intelligence, with respect and in defense of our Constitution, also with energy and courage."
 
The very important Cuban Parliament {"Parlamento cubano"} session held today -- October 26-2021 -- in Havana focused on Cuba's two current prime perils -- the U. S. Blockade and the COVID-19 Pandemic. And clearly the Blockade and what it portends on November 15th-2021 garnered the most concern.
        President Miguel Diaz-Canel believes that he is strongly supported by most of the 13 million everyday Cubans on the island. But, as he acknowledged today -- October 26-2021 -- during his speech to Parliament, that support will be tested again by the powerful Counter Revolutionary protests set for November 15th-2021.
      Meanwhile on October 26-2021, today the COVID-19 statistics as shown above continued to prove that Cuba's vaccination program is producing extremely encouraging dividends. In the past 24 hours the number of COVID deaths numbered 10 and the new cases were 975. Just a few weeks ago these numbers were vastly higher each day.
    The renowned journalist for CBS News -- Portia Siegelbaum -- has lived in Havana for many years, and she is very impressed with the results Cuba is now getting from its own home-produced vaccines, which are sharply reducing the effects from COVID-19. Today Portia Siegelbaum proudly Tweeted: "Domestic created vaccines have positive impact."
        Also, across the entire island today Cubans are sadly remembering the 62nd anniversary of one of their most beloved revolutionary heroes -- CAMILO CIENFUEGOS!! In 1953 while in his early 20s, Camilo was planning on opening a clothing store in Havana. But instead he joined the Cuban Revolution and became one of the most important Commanders, famed for such things as his leadership in the Battle of Santa Clara, the rebel victory in the closing hours of 1958 that convinced Dictator Batista to flee Havana for safer havens before daylight on January 1, 1959. But then...at age 27 and wildly popular as a prime Revolutionary hero, Camilo died in the crash of a small airplane during a coastal storm on October 26th-1959, exactly 62 years ago today.

October 25th-2021 in Cuba!!!

 IT IS NOT WHAT AMERICANS ARE TOLD!!

     Today -- October 25th-2021 -- the graphic above depicts what Cubans on the island are concerned about, which entails healthcare and education and the Pandemic and the Blockade and other current Perils & JOYs that affect their lives. Cubans on the island today -- October 25th-2021 -- are, for example, lavishly celebrating the birthday of Yury Valdes Balbin because he is the Director of the renowned Finlay Institute that leads the island's fight against COVID-19...and that happens to be a fight that Cuba is finally winning thanks to vaccines produced by the Finlay Institute.
       Of Course, today -- October 25th-2021 -- Americans are only saturated, as usual, with doomsday reports about Revolutionary Cuba's imminent demise, as shown above. And, of course, since 1959...a rather long time ago...Americans are never told what everyday Cubans on the island actually are feeling, JUST WHAT extreme Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Cuba, Miami, Newark, and Washington are feeling!!! As a Democracy-loving American, I believe that says a heck lot more about the United States than it says about Cuba. For example, instead of promoting and justifying the upcoming Coup in Cuba on November 25th-2021 that will finally overthrow Revolutionary Cuba, perhaps the U. S. media and the well-funded U.S.-based & Cuba-based anti-Cuba digital blogs should explain to the American citizens and tax-payers why thousands of other well-funded coup-attempts since 1959 have been unsuccessful. Could that possibly be because that, since 1959, there have always been enough everyday Cubans on the island who actually don't want the return of foreign dominance such as the U.S.-backed & Mafia-backed Batista dictators who ruled the island PRIOR TO 1959???? I'm Just asking, of course, because I believe sometimes the U. S. media might one day permit an opinion of an everyday Cuban on the island that HAPPENS TO not to be AN EXTREME COUNTER REVOLTUIONARY CUBAN THAT IS PROFITING FROM ALL THE ATTEMPTS OF OVERTHROWING THE...uh...Revolution!!!
   Earlier this month the daily COVID-19 statistics were devastating for the Cuban people who also believed that the pandemic raging in Cuba was encouraging fresh Miami-inspired attempts to overthrow their government. But today -- October 25-2021 -- the COVID-19 statistics are making Cubans on the island rejoice about new COVID numbers and about the positive results being reaped from the Finlay Institute's Cuba-produced vaccines. As shown above, in the past 24 hours Cuba has had just 9 COVID deaths and that single digit number is startling compared to the devastation of previous months. So just 9 deaths along with the other details and numbers shown above today are rejoicing for Cubans in Cuba.
    Like other young fathers {and mothers} on the island of Cuba today -- October 25th-2021 -- this young father has positive opinions about the Finlay Institute and about the effort that the Revolutionary government is trying to do to combat the twin perils of the Pandemic and the Blockade. Yet, as far as Americans are told, this young father is not permitted to express his opinions about anything happening day-by-day on the island of Cuba...and that it is where he chooses to live and raise his son!!!
       On the other hand, if you are a Cuban on the island named Junior Garcia and you plan to lead an anti-Cuban insurrection on the island planned for November 15th-2021, the U. S. media will saturate their pages and airways with propaganda that says this coup will likely succeed because just about EVERYONE of the 13 million Cubans on the island will SUPPORT Junior Garcia, not the Revolutionary government. Of course, if such propaganda was true the Cuban Revolution would have been overthrown many decades ago, starting in January of 1959.
    The excerpt above was in a long article in the U. S. media by NBC News that tried to explain why the November 15th-2021 attempt by Junior Garcia is likely to succeed although all others since 1959 have failed. As you can see above, NBC News mocked Cuba because: "Last week, Garcia was vilified on television because they said he is backed by the United States, who Cuba says is trying to destabilize the country." Please!!! I believe for the sake of America's democracy that Americans should study that sentence quoted above!!! It is typical of what Americans have been told by the U. S. media since January of 1959. "Last week, Garcia was vilified on television because they said he is backed by the United States, who Cuba says is trying to destabilize the country." Of course, NBC News...with that sentence and that article is boosting "Garcia" because he represents -- on November 25th-2021 -- the latest hope of Miami and Washington to overthrow Revolutionary Cuba. By...uh...mocking Cuba for claiming that, as with "Garcia", that "...the United States is trying to destabilize Cuba..." is laughable but it is also typical of the U. S. media propaganda relating to Cuba since January of 1959. Uh...let's see, since 1959 Miami and Washington have tried to destroy post-Batista Cuba by military, starvation, and terrorist means -- all of which have been documented with historic terms such as...the Bay of Pigs attack in 1961, the Embargo-Blockade since 1962, the bombing of the civilian Cubana Flight 455 airplane in 1976, etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc., etc.....!!!! And so, yes in October of 2021 it is laughable that NBC News mocks Cuba for claiming that the United States is trying "to destabilize Cuba." OMG!!! What about trying to...starve, deprive, make miserable, murder, terrorize Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their own revolutionary government??? Could NBC News have mentioned any of those things instead of settling for the word "DESTABILIZE" in its vast promotion of the upcoming overthrow on November 15th-2021?? 
    As far as the U. S. media is concerned, the only people who have opinions about Cuba are extreme Counter Revolutionary Cubans in Cuba, Miami, Washington, etc. The Grandmother shown above who is direly concerned about her Grand-daughter remembers Batista's Cuba and she has lived all these decades in Revolutionary Cuba. And, yes, she has opinions about the island. I believe it is an injustice to the Americans in the USA for neither the U. S. media nor the U. S. government to pretend that this Grandmother on the island doesn't have opinions on...the Blockade or the Pandemic or anything else regarding Cuba and its Superpower neighbor that is just a hundred miles away.
     This mother in Cuba posted this photo on Social Media because she believes a Cuban-produced COVID-19 vaccine will help protect her family. So, she has opinions on the island that don't concern taking part in the overthrow of her government on November 25th-2021. And, I think, it is America's shame, not Cuba's, that neither the U. S. media nor the U. S. government believes that this Cuban mother on the island doesn't have opinions about such things as...the Pandemic, the Blockade, President Diaz-Canel, President Biden, etc., etc. And the fact is...she does have opinions too, just like Junior Garcia.

23.10.21

Nov. 15-2021; Target Date For Cuba's Demise?

 The LONG-awaited Overthrow Looms?

     Today -- October 23rd-2021 -- the official Cuban media, as shown above, is reporting that the island nation is beginning to emerge from the twin threats of the the U. S. blockade and the COVID-19 crisis. The article today highlighted the words of Cuba's long-time Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez expressing optimism although, as the COVID pandemic eases considerably on the island, Bruno Rodriguez is well aware that another powerful effort to overthrow Cuba's revolutionary government is set to begin in less than a month -- on November 15th-2021.
   For many years, at the UN and elsewhere, Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez has been a respected spokesman for Cuba, particularly related to the threats from the USA. His optimism today -- October 23rd-2021 -- regarding both COVID & the Blockade didn't mention that on November 15th-2021 many in Cuba and in the U. S. believe an imposing and powerful coup in the guise of a well-planned protest will commence.
     Yet, today -- Oct. 23rd-2021 -- many foreign entities tightly tied to Revolutionary Cuba's survival dismiss the projections of Nov. 15th's coup as similar to all the other U. S. attempts to overthrow the revolution since Jan. 1, 1959, meaning that Cuba will somehow survive. For example, the image above is from a new international ad, including on Social Media outlets, that began today by Iberostar, the Madrid-owned Hotel & Resorts giant. Like the other Spanish Hotel & Resorts giant Melia, Iberostar is now heavily promoting its international tourism trade involving Cuba's famed beaches such as Varadero, Cayo Santa Maria, and others. Across Cuba, Iberostar & Melia have forty luxurious properties catering to tourists and their ads are now pinpointing November 15th-2021 as the day for tourism to resume in earnest in Cuba. The Cuban government has also pinpointed November 15th-2021 as the day it will reopen its borders to tourists. Yet, many sources are also pinpointing November 15th-2021 as the day the overthrow of Revolutionary Cuba commences.
   Even mainstream U. S. media sources are featuring high-profile anti-Cuban journalists -- and that includes...the NY Times, Washington Post, NBC, CBS, ABC, etc., etc. And now those outlets are seemingly promoting Nov. 15th-2021 as the date for the beginning of the demise of Revolutionary Cuba. For example, today -- Oct. 23rd-2021 -- the anti-Cuban journalist at NBC News, Carmen Sesin, has a prime article extolling the virtues and power of the Cuban who is leading the upcoming Nov. 15th-2021 attempt at overthrowing Revolutionary Cuba.
    As shown above, today -- October 23-2021 -- is the start of the long article by Carmen Sesin of NBC News celebrating and extolling "the young artist" who "has emerged" has the leader of the "protests planned for Nov. 15."
     According to Carmen Sesin at NBC News today, and according to other mainstream U. S. media, the latest Superman leader of a supposed coup against Cuba is...Yunior Garcia, a 39-year-old artist. His quotes blazoned across the world today by Carmen Sesis and NBC News is meant, I assume, to bring chills down the spines of all the revolutionary leaders and civilian supporters on the entire island.
    This photo of Junior Garcia is courtesy of Yamil Lage; the Paris-based AFP News Agency; and Getty Images. This, supposedly, is the face of the Counter Revolutionary leader in Cuba destined to lead the revolution on Nov. 15th-2021 that might finally dethrone the Revolution that Fidel Castro began on JULY 26-1953 -- the one that ended up dethroning and shocking the U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship on JANUARY 1ST-1959. Will Junior Garcia, who apparently has unlimited support, emulate the success of Fidel Castro's Revolution that began with very little support? Uh, maybe or maybe not...but historic dates are always interesting to contemplate, and perhaps Junior Garcia's Nov. 15th-2021 will turn out to be as historic as Fidel Castro's JULY 26-1953!!!!!
WOW!!!!!
"Nov. 15 has to happen."
  History registers the fact that Fidel Castro made 26 de JULIO from 1953 everlastingly historic as the start of his Cuban Revolution that shocked the world, especially the United States and the Mafia, by defeating the Batista dictatorship.
     Will history one day register Junior Garcia's 15 of November from 2021 as the historic date that began the overthrow of Fidel Castro's Cuban Revolution??? I, of course, don't know the answer to that titillating question but I will await future headlines by Carmen Sesin of NBC News and other Counter Revolutionary U. S. media sources to...uh...let me know!!!

ONLY Miami-USA Starves Cubans in Cuba

 While Also PROFITING From it

    Cubans know what the Paris Club is although, it seems, Americans don't. This week...the next to last week in October of 2021...the Paris Club somewhat graciously agreed that Cuba will be allowed to default on its debt payments because of the twin perils, the U. S. Blockade and the COVID-19 pandemic, that have devastated the island's economy. As you can see above, the Paris Club consists of 22 of the richest nations in the world, including the USA, the UK, France, Canada, Japan, etc., etc.
      The London-based Reuters, the world's best news agency and its world-class Cuban-expert journalist Marc Frank, as usual as shown above, had this week's best coverage regarding Cuba, the Paris Club, etc. The Marc Frank reporting, for example, included the fact that the U. S. doesn't allow Cuba to be involved in international banking such as the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank, etc., because that would not compute  with the Miami-addicted U. S. Embargo/Blockade that is designed {since 1962}, according to de-classified U. S. data, to starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government, something that the 1961 Miami-U. S. air-land-and-sea military attack at the Bay of Pigs, along with continuing terrorism, has failed to do. Of course, the Miami-U. S. Embargo/Blockade of Cuba since 1962 has, indeed, starved, deprived, and made miserable Cubans on the island...while also enriching and empowering Cubans in Miami-Little Havana.
         Of course, the unending and unchecked stream of Counter Revolutionary Cubans elected to the U. S. Congress from Miami-Little Havana have amassed the power to maintain the Embargo/Blockade against Cubans on the island AS LONG AS THEY CHOOSE!!!! For example, the Miami-Little Havana Cubans in the U. S. Congress -- such as Maria Salazar as shown above, can go on national television in the U. S. any hour of the day and, without any trouble or opposition, say whatever they want to say to prolong history's longest and cruelest Embargo/Blockade ever imposed by any powerful nation against the people in a much-smaller nation. In the above TV diatribe, for example, Miami-Little Havana's Maria Salazar quickly used her new status in the U. S. Congress to inform Americans and the World that "There is no Embargo against Cuba," meaning that the island's revolutionary government since 1959 has been the worst and most brutal government in world history and that the Mafiosi-riddled Batista dictatorship that preceded it was the best and least brutal government in world history!! Of course, such unchecked propaganda since 1959 has, indeed, starved and deprived generations of Cubans on the island while also, indeed, enriching and impowering generations of Cubans in Miami/Little Havana. Yet, since 1959 the vivid memories of the Batista regime from the 1950s have apparently kept enough Cubans in Cuba to not be persuaded to accept a return of the Batistianos despite all the inducements they have faced in the past six+ decades.

cubaninsider: "The Country That Raped Me" (A True Story) : Note : This particular essay on  Ana Margarita Martinez  was first ...
