Still 60 Years Later, Embargo Starves Cubans

 60 YEARS LATER IT STARVES CUBANS

WHILE STILL ENRICHING U.S. CUBANS!!

    Today is February 3rd, 2022. It was February 3rd, 1962 that the United States began its economic Embargo against Cuba after failing to recapture the island with the April-1961 Bay of Pigs military attack along with numerous terrorist and assassination attacks. And so...exactly 60 years later...the Embargo against Cuba continues, stronger than ever. WHY? Because rich & power Cubans in Miami, Newark, and in Congress continue to be enriched and empowered by it. The second reason is that the Embargo continues to drastically hurt Cuban families on the island. According to de-classified U. S. documents from February 3rd, 1962, the purpose of the Embargo was to...starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans on the island to induce them to rise up and overthrow their revolutionary government. So WHY has that not worked? It hasn't worked because, since 1959 when the Cuban Revolution defeated the U.S.-backed and Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship, there have always been enough Cubans on the island who remember the extreme brutality and thievery of the Batista dictatorship. Thus, truth be known, the longevity of Revolutionary Cuba is more extraordinary than the original triumph of the Revolutionary Rebels on January 1, 1959. Another true fact about the Cuban Revolution is this: It has changed the superpower United States even more than it has changed Cuba!!

    Proof that the Cuban Revolution has CHANGED the U. S. even more than it has CHANGED Cuba is this basic fact: It takes a great non-U.S. journalist or author to tell truths about vital things such as the U. S. EMBARGO that has existed from Feb. 3rd-2022 till Feb. 3rd-2022. For example today -- on the 60th anniversary of the EMBARGO -- it takes a great non-U. S. journalist like David Adler to write an honest article about the U. S. EMBARGO. David Adler works for the London-based The Guardian, which has massive international digital journalistic influence. Unfortunately, except for great foreign journalists such as David Adler, Americans for exactly 60 YEARS and counting have been saturated with blatant lies about the EMBARGO.

    Because he works for a great non-U.S. newspaper, the great London-based digital giant The Guardian, the great journalist David Adler has both the integrity and freedom to write an honest article, as shown about, about the U. S. Embargo against Cuba on Feb. 3rd-2022, which happens to be the exact 60th anniversary of the start of the Embargo. Americans, deprived of honest articles regarding Cuba, might want to read what David Adler SAYS.

    For example, today David Adler has the courage and freedom to state the truth about what "Both the Biden administration and its Republican opposition claim that these measures are targeted at the regime, rather than the Cuban people." In other words, David Adler explains the BIG U. S. lie about the Embargo. Of course, it is a BIG LIE SINCE FEB. 3RD-1962 that has tried to starve generations of Cubans on the island while also massively enriching and empowering an array of politically correct Cubans from Miami, Newark, and in Congress.

     And from London the great David Adler has the integrity and freedom to tell the truth about the Embargo: "...In short, the US embargo impacts every aspect of life on the island -- and that is precisely the point." Thus, not a cowardly or bought-and-paid-for U. S. journalist, David Adler has the courage and integrity to tell the truth about the Embargo, which is aimed at starving, depriving, and making miserable everyday Cubans to induce them to rise up and overthrow their leaders. U. S. journalists are not allowed to state such truths because, of course, the truth might induce the American taxpayers & voters not to support Embargoed genocide against Cuban families!!!

    PLEASE, if you are an American and don't read anything else about the Embargo today -- on its 60th anniversary -- read what TODAY David Adler in The Guardian and digitally tells the world about what U. S. Cuban dictators like Little Havana U. S. Senator Marco Rubio says about the Embargo: "'There is no embargo on Cuba.' This bold claim -- made by Florida senator Marco Rubio on the floor of the US Senate last July -- has quickly hardened into conventional wisdom across aisles of US Congress and among Rubio's base of support in the Cuban diaspora." PLEASE!!! Muster up enough courage to at least read the paragraph depicted above in which David Adler has the courage and integrity to call Senator Rubio a liar. 

     As the prime U. S. Cuban dictator, Senator Marco Rubio from Miami/Little Havana quickly made "BREAKING NEWS" when he wiped out President Obama's very brave & decent easing of the genocidal Embargo in 2016.  Of course, in 2016 the U. S. media as well as another cowardly and propagandized generation of Americans quietly allowed Senator Marco Rubio to get away with his "BREAKING NEWS" in which he easily overturned Obama's rare U. S. decency related to Cubans on the island...returning to the indecency but VERY lucrative rule of Batista in the 1950s and now Rubio from 2016 in 2022.

     And again, if you have the courage to read the David Adler article about the Feb. 3rd-2022 60th ANNIVERSARY OF THE EMBARGO...you will see a paragraph in which David Adler has the courage to explain that the Embargo has NOTHING TO DO WITH DEMOCRATIC PRACTICES. That is a reminder that most Cubans, including those in Miami/Little Havana, oppose the Embargo's genocide against Cubans on the island. The words and graphic shown above, for example, are by a Miami/Little Havana journalist/publisher named Alvaro Fernandez. But of course, only extreme Counter Revolutionary Cubans, such as Rubio, can be elected within the bowels of the U. S. democracy to important positions in Miami, Congress, etc. Thus, extremely well-funded in a money-crazed system, Rubio will be re-elected in November to another 6-year term in the U. S. Senate and he also has already had one well-funded Republican White House attempt to become President. WOW.

    And meanwhile, the healthy and well-educated Cuban girl shown above actually perhaps wrote and spoke the best words on Feb. 3rd-2022 about the 60th Anniversary of the U. S. Embargo against Cuba. Just for the record, this is what she said and wrote: "What I am about to say comes only from my heart, and not from my parents nor my government. I am aware of two hundred and forty measures imposed by the United States to starve and hurt me and my family to make us to oppose the Cuban government, apparently to reinstate the brutal Batista and Mafia years that made so much money for rich United States businesses. I agree that trying to starve me and my family, and trying to otherwise hurt us, is working to an extent, but not to the extent that we will willingly allow such foreign people to dominate our island and our homeland. As young as I am, I see and experience first-hand that the Embargo is an act of genocide against the Cuban people. Thank you for letting me to speak to you from the depths of my heart."

     From the depths of her heart, this Cuban girl in Havana today -- on Feb. 3rd-2022 -- said: "THE EMBARGO IS AN ACT OF GENOCIDE AGAINST THE CUBAN PEOPLE." Marco Rubio, the Cuban in Miami and in Congress who largely dictates the USA's Cuban policy, says, "THERE IS NO EMBARGO." I sincerely believe that either this girl or Rubio is a blatant liar. And furthermore, I believe it is important for the sake of the United States for Americans to have the courage and intelligence to decide which one is lying.

WOW!! U. S. Media Reports Honestly On Cuba!!

    The best U. S. journalist on issues related to Health & Science issues is Jason Beaubien. He is the Health & Science reporter for NPR, which happens to be one of the USA's most powerful news sources. INCREDIBLY, a major report/article by Jason Beaubien started off this month of February-2022 with, amazingly, an honest report on Cuba headlined by NPR!!! How about that???

    Starting Feb. 1-2022 this incredible headline crisscrossed the platforms of one of the USA's top news sources -- NPR -- and was written by the USA's top Health & Science journalist, Jason Beaubien. Incredible!! Did NPR fail to consult Bob Menendez and Marco Rubio before posting this amazing Pro-Cuba report??

  In the USA's two-Party political system, the Democrat Bob Menendez in Biden's administration along with the Republican Marco Rubio in the previous equally vicious Trump administration have dictated the USA's Cuban policies without input from non-extremists. This merely continues an unchallenged six-decade-old rule in which only Counter Revolutionary U. S. Cubans have been allowed to control the USA's Cuban policies...greatly enriching and empowering the Counter Revolutionaries while also greatly and cruelly punishing everyday Cubans on the island using the wealth & power of the nearby Superpower USA. Not coincidentally, in the past 5+ YEARS the only Chairmen of the Senate FOREIGN RELATIONS COMMITTEES, have {shut-UP} been, uh, Rubio and Menendez. That, of course, is in keeping with the ironclad USA policy of only allowing extremist Counter Revolutionaries to dictate America's Cuban policies. Normally, of course, the U. S. media -- via intimidation or rewards -- is usually 100% in step with whatever the likes of Senators Menendez and Rubio dictate pertaining to Cuba. And in America's two-Party political system, one thing is damn sure: either Menendez or Rubio will remain indefinitely as the Chairman of the FOREIGN RELATIONS Committee in the United States Senate. That's because, of course, Cuba happens to be a FOREIGN nation.

NPR

     As we start the month of Feb.-2022, I believe an appropriate question is this: How did a major U. S. media source publish a positive report about Cuba without, apparently, getting the approval of Senators Menendez and Rubio???? Incredible!!!!

         I mean, uh...for the first time in six decades did someone other than extremist Counter Revolutionaries have input in making a decision regarding the USA's Cuban Policies??? And, if so, did that person actually finally feel a little shame about the images of the U. S. and its Democracy as internationally chronicled by the great Brazilian editorialist Carlos LaTuff? I mean...has anybody ever come up with a depiction of the USA's Cuban policy that even remotely  compares to the accurate depictions of Carlos LaTuff???

Uh...JUST ASKING!!!

And BY THE WAY:

   Because of the international power of the U.S. Embargo/Blockade that is designed to starve Cuba's economy, the U. S. is not the only nation benefiting from Cuba's wealth of athletes. Jordan Diaz, just 21, is the world's best Triple Jumper. He has just become a Spanish citizen so he can represent Spain in the 2024 Paris Olympics.

     And so, from 1962 till 2022 {and beyond} the endless U. S. EMBARGO has endured and, according to the Little Havana Cubans, it will overthrow Revolutionary Cuba any day now!!!

Cuba on January 28-2022

 

     Today -- on Jan. 28th-2022 -- Cubans on the island were wildly celebrating what would have been the 169th BIRTHDAY of Independence Hero Jose Marti, as the photo above shows President Diaz-Canel leading the cheer for Marti.

      And meanwhile on Jan. 28-2022 above are the Top stories garnering Cuban Headlines.

   But in Cuba itself Cubans today are mostly remembering the 169th Birthday of Jose Marti. Born on January 28th, 1853, in Havana, he died on May 19th, 1895, in the Battle of Dos Rios on Cuban soil fighting for Cuban independence against Spain, which had dominated Cuba since the 17th Century. Marti's heroic death failed to defeat Spain but he is still known as the Apostle of Cuban Independence who inspired other apostles of Cuban Independence, most notably Fidel Castro.

   Rich and famous as a Latin American poet/writer, Jose Marti was as famed in London, Paris, and New York as he was in Havana. But independence for his Cuban homeland compelled Marti to return to Cuba to fight and then as a brave hero to die for "PATRIA"/"HOMELAND". And that is why today -- on Jan. 28th--2022 -- Cubans on the island celebrated Jose Marti's 169th BIRTHDAY!!!

      Not only did the President of Cuba Diaz-Canel take to the streets today to celebrate the mammoth 169th anniversary of Jose Marti's birth in Havana, but across the island Newscasts, as shown above, have led their broadcasts with honors bestowed on the Independence Hero's life. Above, the caption translated to English said: "Man you are still growing on the road that you left us."

     But truth be known, the hombre...the man...that Jose Marti most inspired, Fidel Castro, remains today as the most admired hombre in Cuba. While Jose Marti died fighting Spanish soldiers in Cuba in 1895, it was in 1898 that the United States replaced Spain as the dominate power in Cuba when the U. S. easily won the Spanish-American War fought in Cuba. So, it was Fidel Castro's Cuban Revolution that on Jan. 1-1959 that finally ended centuries of foreign Cuban domination by the imperative powers.

    Although Americans to this day are not supposed to study them at all, the two historic graphics above explain vividly why Fidel Castro remains both the historic and topical leader of Cuba today.

     Beloved by most Cubans in Cuba and reviled by most Americans, Fidel Castro was born on August 13, 1926, in the little town of Biran in far eastern Cuba. Fidel Castro died of old age at 90 in Havana on November 25th, 2016.

 Historians have tabulated that "Fidel Castro" survived "634" vicious assassination attempts to kill him, "MOSTLY BY THE CIA".

     There were attempts to kill Fidel Castro in April of 1959 when he visited Washington and New York and San Antonio a mere three months after he was being celebrated as an anti-Batista Independence Hero even in those U. S. cities. Then over the years on his visits to New York to speak at the UN, as reported by the New York newspapers, there were constant assassination attempts that actually didn't seem to faze Fidel Castro. But...it seems that 634 assassination attempts would have been too much for even Fidel Castro, who also survived being a frontline guerrilla fighter during the Revolution in the 1950s, as the frontline leader at the 1961 U. S. Bays of Pigs attack, etc., etc.

 But through it all...as the great Lee Lockwood explained with his great photos from 1959-1969...it has been Fidel Castro's Cuba since 1959. And, incredibly, that is still true on Jan. 28-2022 -- which is Jose Marti's 169th BIRTHDAY!! And, YES, that is true although Fidel Castro died at age 90 on November 25th, 2016.

War Drums Loudly Targeting Cuba

      When its comes to the most consistent and most fiercest Counter Revolution/anti-Cuban journalists in the mainstream U. S. media, the usual suspects are chomping at the bit over the latest incident -- the prospects of a U.S.-Russia War over Ukraine -- that supposedly looms as a lovely chance to finally overthrow Revolutionary Cuba that has ruled the Caribbean island steadfastly since January 1, 1959, much to the chagrin of nearby Miami-Little Havana in Florida. Of course, one of the prime Counter Revolution/anti-Cuban journalists at the Miami Herald -- Nora Gamez Torres -- isn't about to miss a chance to suggest that little blockaded Cuba would be a major Russian ally in any USA-Russian War. WONDERFUL!!

   Above is the blistering Nora Gamez Torres/Miami Herald article this week about Cuba's leader Miguel Diaz-Canel and Russia's leader Vladimir Putin shaking hands on an agreement, uh, possibly related to Ukraine.

    This week's main Miami Herald/Nora Gamez Torres article, as shown above, ties Diaz-Canel/Cuba with Putin/Russia if the War over Ukraine becomes a reality.

    The very same day this week -- Jan. 24-2022 -- that the Nora Gamez Torres-Miami Herald article tied little Cuba to a big possible War between the U. S. and Russia, Russia sent a huge cargo airplane {above} to Havana loaded with tons of humanitarian aid for the Cuban people. It was welcome material for the Blockaded Cubans on the island. No military equipment was included.

    As you can see, the massive tons of humanitarian aid from Russia to Cuba this week consisted of tons of material such as Wheat Flower and Sunflower Oil. These, of course, are things that the people in a small nation that has been embargoed/blockaded since 1962 by a Superpower nation might need!!

    While the Russian aid to the Cuban people was still being moved off the plane via conveyer belts {above}, the Russian Ambassador Andrey Guskov stood before TV cameras in Havana and made this cogent statement: "These gifts for Cuban families are because the Russian people told the Russian government to send it to this vibrant but targeted island nation. We wish there was a world in which the American people, who are much closer to Cuba than we are, would tell the American government to stop trying to starve Cuban families to death or at least to submit to America's will. But this Russian cargo plane arrives in Cuba because that is the world we actually have, and it is a world that America both projects and lies about."

      As a Democracy-loving American, I don't accept everything that the Russian ambassador Andrey Guskov said in Havana this week. But the images above depict just some of the things targeting Cuban families that I sincerely believe Americans should be ashamed about {facts that are both true and historic}!! Denying them, I think, defames America more than it defames Cuba.

     Indeed, Cuba is not a threat to the U. S. but China and Russia are, separately, but surely even more so if Xi and Putin shake hands on a deal to go to War against the U. S. over either Taiwan or Ukraine, both nations China & Russia still claim.

   An imminent War pitting the USA's Biden against Russia's Putin would alone be an unwinnable situation for the United States and, perhaps, the whole world. France's most famed adventurer and Germany's most famed adventurer both were doomed when they underestimated Mother Russia. Hopefully, Biden is smarter than Napoleon and Hitler. Since 1955 the U. S., despite being the world's Superpower, has been unable to win long wars in places like Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc. But trying to win either a conventional or nuclear War in which the wily Putin believes he is protecting Mother Russia would be foolhardy, at least!!

    Study this world map. Note little Cuba in the circle right below Florida. And note Russia in brown. Don't blame blockaded little Cuba for taking tons of humanitarian aid from Russia this week. But you might want to blame anyone who wants to go to War with Mother Russia.

   If World War Three starts because Mother Russia doesn't want Ukraine on its eastern border to join or be protected by the NATO alliance, who would win WW3? Or to be more precise, who would lose WW3?

    As a diehard American, I surely hope that America wins WW3. But...if I was betting on it, I would have to reluctantly and unhappily make Mother Russia a 3-point-5 favorite.
