US Media Promotes Starvation of Cuba

 And Three Generations of Cubans Are Tired Of It!!

     Three generations of Cubans more-and-more blame the U. S. media as a prime promoter of the gruesome U.S. Embargo that since 1962 has legalized the Superpower's desire to "starve, deprive, and make miserable" Cubans in Cuba to persuade them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government. Repeatedly on both Social Media and on Cuba's News Media most of the deprived, starving, and miserable Cubans are increasingly tired of the U. S. starvation-tactics of the Embargo and blame the mainstream U. S. media for lying to promote the continuation of the genocidal actions of the U. S. government. Now the top U. S. pollsters, including Gallup, agree with everyday Cubans regarding the descent into propaganda by the mainstream U. S. media.

     As you can see above, the Gallup survey reveals that just "One in six Americans trust newspapers and only one out of ten trust TV, a new Gallup survey shows. Just 16% of US adults now say they have 'a great deal' or 'quite a lot' of confidence in newspapers and 11% in television news. Both readings are down five percentage points since last year." So...those dreadful statistics are getting worse and they already shame the world's richest & strongest Democracy...just as most of the world believes that the U. S. Embargo of Cuba for the past six+ decades shames the United States overall. Daily now, on Social Media and on Cuban News outlets, everyday Cubans indeed are openly blaming the mainstream U. S. media, and not JUST the Miami media, for what they believe is over six decades of genocide from the superpower United States against Cuban families on the vulnerable nearby island nation.

     Today now into the second week of September in 2023 these U. S. Cuban headlines saturate the U. S. Media with anti-Cuban rhetoric, including CBS Miami mocking Cubans in Cuba as the U. S. continues to expand the six-decade-old Embargo of Cuba, now by cutting off the last few "education-only" flights from the U. S. to the nearby island.

     Meanwhile in Cuba, Cubans that don't trust the U. S. media do tend to trust their own Periodistas, which is the Spanish word for "Journalists."

     Today -- starting the second week of September of 2023 -- the images above are from a nationwide TV News program in Cuba. It reminds Cubans that the United States is the only nation in the world that approves the U. S. Embargo/Blockade that has roiled their lives for over six decades, since February of 1962. Above, for example, the Cuban broadcast today reports on an important delegation from Japan that arrived in Havana to sign agreements designed to help Cuba survive the endless U. S. economic assaults against the island. Cubans were told that Japan is a prime Democracy, a key U. S. military and economic/trade ally, and is also the third richest nation in the world behind only the U. S. and China, and that Japan strongly supports the Cuban people instead of the U. S. blockade.

Cuban journalists are ubiquitous in Cuba.

    The Cuban Media promotes that most Cubans, most Americans, and most people around the world support ending the endless U. S. Embargo/Blockade of Cuba, while the United States Media promotes continuing it. Thus it will continue, because the United States Media has much more money and much more influence than the Cuban Media.

CHINA cuba USA!!!!!!

 The Two Superpowers want little Cuba!!

But China Is Winning that Battle!!

    Little Cuba is a close neighbor of the United States but its capital of Havana is 7,913 miles from China's capital of Beijing, and a one-way flight from the two capitals takes 22 hours. Yet, in September of 2023, the United States and China -- the two richest and strongest nations in the world -- are both Superpowers that crave little Cuba as an ally in the volatile warlike and economic struggles unfolding on the international stage. But it's not really a contest as to which Superpower is wooing little Cuba in September of 2023. As the two photos shown above suggest, China, which now has 1.4 billion people, is helping little Cuba's 11.3 million people from totally being starved, deprived, and made miserable by the newly strengthened U. S. economic Embargo/Blockade that has existed since 1962. In other words, in September of 2023 the United States is allowing China to easily win the one-sided battle that is driving little Cuba more-and-more into the arms of the Asian giant that the United States considers its greatest economic and military rival in a very, very volatile world.

     On the Isle of Youth today -- September 7th, 2023 -- Cubans held an agricultural meeting in which citizens discussed the U. S. Embargo and the help they are getting from China to help them survive the Embargo. The Isle of Youth, shown in the left-center above, is the largest Cuban island other than the main island, and it is where Fidel Castro was in prison from July of 1953 until May of 1955 when his first attempt to overthrow the Batista dictatorship failed. In the 1950s it was named the Isle of Pines but Fidel changed the name to the Isle of Youth after the triumph in 1959 of his Cuban Revolution.

    This was the scene today -- Sept. 7th-2023 -- when farmers held a massive meeting to discuss the help they are now getting from China, contrasting China's help with the U. S. Embargo that they said was "trying to starve us once and for all."

    This was a part of the crowd on the Isle of Youth today as national TV News programs across Cuba televised the comments live.

     Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel today went out into the crowd at the Isle of Youth to speak on live TV with Cubans. Before becoming President five years ago, Diaz-Canel had been Cuba's beloved Education Minister.

   Cuban farmers today took turns stepping up to the microphones on the Isle of Youth to express their hopes and dreams, with two of them uttering the same sentence: "As the United States is still trying to starve us and China seems to be trying to keep us from starving, we ask you Mr. President to embrace what China is doing."

    In Cuba today there are approximately 11.3 million Cubans and most of them have not starved yet, and most of them are social media savvy, as this photo today shows. And, YES, Cubans in Cuba today have opinions too...just as Cubans in Miami and Washington have opinions!!!! Perhaps -- in September of 2023 -- it is time that the U. S. media and the U. S. government considers the opinions of Cubans in Cuba too.

     And, speaking of the Isle of Youth where Fidel Castro spent almost two years in a Batista prison in 1953-55, he later spent a lot of time as Cuba's leader showing famous admirers around the island's most famous spots. The photo above was taken in 1973 when Fidel was hosting the internationally famed Movie Star Gina Lollobrigida. Thus, Gina was told why he renamed the Isle of Pines to the Isle of Youth.

    The capital of Cuba's historic Isle of Youth is the important city of Nueva Gerona, which now has a population of 60,879. It is interesting to know that the population of Nueva Gerona has steadily increased since 2012. Because of its beauty, location, and abundant wildlife, the Isle of Youth should be a prime tourist destination. But the U. S. Embargo, since 1962, has been designed to block tourism to Cuba because tourism is known to help countries and regions that are not blocked by a Superpower-imposed Embargo. But, uh, a few cruise ships and a few foreign flights to the Isle of Youth would make for wonderful visits for tourists and would also help some wonderful people from, uh, being starved, deprived, and made miserable by a U.S.-imposed Embargo/Blockade that has existed since 1962.

     Back in February of 1962 Proclamation 3447 was made into a legal law by the Superpower United States for the purpose of starving, depriving, and making miserable Cubans in Cuba to enduce them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government. Six+ Decades later it still exists in SEPTEMBER of 2023 to appease a few Counter Revolutionaries in Miami and Washington. It seems that the rest of the world fervently believes that Cubans in Cuba have a "right to live without a blockade" because the rest of the world knows about "The impact of US sanctions on the Cuban population and women's lives."

US-Cuba Could be Trade Partners

 As When Batista Ruled Cuba!!

    Back in the 1950s the brutal, thieving, Mafia-riddled Fulgencio Batista's military dictatorship ruled Cuba with massive support from the United States. That was because Batista, the Mafia, and U. S. businessmen shared in the vast spoils from the massive revenues rolling into Cuba from tourists, gambling, prostitution, drugs, etc., etc.

     But in Batista's Mafia-ruled Cuba in the 1950s the leaders -- Luciano, Batista, and Lansky -- knew they had their own powerful police/army thugs and were also backed by the nearby United States, the strongest nation in the whole world. Thus, the wholesale rape & robbery of Cuba continued without any concern for protests from everyday Cubans, and thus the Batistianos didn't even bother to toss a few crumbs to the majority Cubans, and if there were any hints of protests the Batistianos simply murdered Cubans, especially children, to blunt any thoughts of resistance. But Cubans did resist, especially mothers such as the ones shown above that bravely took to the streets to let the world, thanks to coverage by the journalist Herbert L. Matthews of the NY Times, that they were willing to die to protest the murders of their children by the Batistianos. Those marches by the Cuban mothers not only informed the world and the United States about what was going on in Cuba in the 1950s but Cuban mothers like the ones shown above spawned the Cuban Revolution, which on the first day of 1959 chased the Batistianos off the island, mostly to nearby Miami where the Counter Revolutionary stronghold of Little Havana has existed to this very day in September-2023.

    The two images above -- the Cuban Revolution and Little Havana USA -- bring us to today, September 5th, 2023, and to these Top Cuban Headlines saturating the U. S. media:

    The giant Cuban Headlines today -- September 5th-2023 -- as usual stress whatever can be best used to encourage the Superpower U. S. to finally overthrow Revolutionary Cuba, a process that has existed since January 1st of 1959 -- and a process that has included a record assassination attempts against Cuban leaders, the 1961 Bay of Pigs military attack, the Embargo/Blockade that has existed since 1962, etc. One prime excuse to finally annihilate Revolutionary Cuba has been to tie Cuba in with foreign entanglements -- such as the current Russia-Ukraine War. Thus, suggesting in September of 2023 that Russia is soliciting Cuban soldiers to fight in the current war stirs more anti-Cuba rhetoric, maybe enough to do the job this time. All of the Headlines above are from U. S. sources today except for the one by the London-based Reuters News Agency, so that is the unbiased article regarding the prospect of Cuban soldiers going to war that you should depend on.

    Yesterday, as shown above, Reuters had updated the world that "Cuba has uncovered a human trafficking ring that coerced its citizens to fight for Russia in the war in Ukraine..." In other words, Reuters is a true source for accurate and unbiased Cuban Headlines, whether good or bad.

   The aforementioned Reuters Cuban article about Cuban soldiers and the Russia-Ukraine War was written by the great journalist/author Marc Frank whose insightful Cuban Revelations are always honest and unbiased.

    And, in other words, what has always been wrong about Cuban News being reported by the U. S. media is the sheer fact that it is invariably totally biased, and slanted with hopes for a regime change in Cuba. Yes, study the historic quotations above and you will note that the United States, almost from the day it was born, has had an unholy craving to conquer, dominate, and exploit the beautiful, lush, and strategically located island-nation of Cuba. I mean for God's Sake, please note that in 1817 Thomas Jefferson himself was saying: "If we conquer Cuba we will be masters of the universe." In 1823 Thomas Jefferson was saying, "I candidly confess that I have ever looked on Cuba as the most interesting addition which could be made to our system of states." So study those two quotations from the incomparable Founding Father Thomas Jefferson shown above, and then study the other quotes below Mr. Jefferson's all-out cravings for Cuba. I believe that the quotations above prove two things: {1} How pugnacious little Cuba is and {2} how greedy the imperative superpower United States has been and is regarding the desired possession of its little feisty neighbor.

US Starts September-2023 by Further Starving Cubans

By Tightening the 6-Decade-Old Cuban Embargo!!

    The island of Cuba is known for having the best beaches in the world. That includes Varadero, which happens to be on Cuba's northern coast just a few miles south of Florida. International polls of tourists have shown that Varadero is the "World's Best Beach" but, of course, the United States doesn't want Americans and others to have the freedom to visit Varadero because, HEY!!!, if the U. S. permitted tourists to flock to Cuban beaches like Varadero if would violate the U. S. Embargo/Blockade that is doing such a good job of starving, depriving, and making miserable Cubans on the island.

     Today -- on September 4th, 2023 -- JetBlue Airlines dominates the above headlines with its announcement that it is "suspending all flights to Cuba this month."  It, of course, continues the trends of the USA's Trump-Biden administrations having tightened the already cruelly tight six-decade-old U. S. economic Embargo/Blockade of Cuba. The extreme restrictions that Washington maintains against Cuban Tourism are designed to starve the Cuban people to entice them to rise up and overthrow their Revolutionary government, which they have had since the Cuban Revolution in 1959 overthrew the U.S./Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship. In 1962, after things such as the Bay of Pigs military attack in 1961 failed to overthrow Revolutionary Cuba, the U. S. imposed the Embargo/Blocade to starve, deprive, and make miserable Cubans on the island, facts that declassified U. S. documents confirm but that Americans are not supposed to consider...as they have supported or condoned the Embargo/Blockade for the last six+ decades!!

    Today jetBlue suspended flights to Cuba because it admitted it could no longer afford to abide by the strong U. S. "restrictions" that keep tourists from flying to Cuba. On the other hand, back in 2016 please note above that JetBlue Airlines announced: "The JetBlue experience you know and love is alvailable to and from Cuba! Our nonstop routes from New York, Boston, Fort Lauderdale, and Orlando to great Cuban tourist spots are now ready!!" But that sane announcement was in 2016 before the Trump and Biden administrations have tightened the already cruelly tight six-decade-old U. S. Embargo/Blockade that is designed to strave Cubans in Cuba and make Cubans in Miami and Washington thrive. And remember...when JetBlue in 2016 spoke about the "great Cuban tourist spots," the airline was talking about Tourist spots in Cuba that some people consider better than the famed Tourist spots in nearby Florida.

    Yes, Cuba has many of the Best Beaches in the world, such as Varadero and, of course, the superpower United States is well aware of that. And that's why the U. S. on September 4th of 2023 still doesn't want tourists to have the freedom to find out about Varadero themselves. Below is the very LEGAL U. S. law that doesn't want you to visit Varadero.

     Since 1962 the two images directly above define the U. S. EMBARGO/BLOCKADE as far as most of the world is concerned. But since 1962 Americans have been persuaded to believe that such images are fine, so on September 4th of 2023 we must either support them or at least condone them.

Key West in Florida and Varadero in Cuba!!

Brazil Helping Cuba Survive US Blockade!!

 

  Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel and Brazil's President Lulu da Silva today -- on SEPTEMBER 2nd-2023 -- are both smiling and reading from the same book!! They are both determined to help Cuba survive the devastating, six-decade-old economic blockade of the island by the U. S.

    Today -- on September 2nd of 2023 -- Brazil, Latin America's richest and strongest nation -- announced that it is sending a massive delegation of Brazilian businessmen to Havana to spend four days signing business deals with Cuban businesses and with the Cuban government for the purpose of making sure that Cuba recovers from the brutal U. S. economic Embargo that began in 1962 and has recently been expanded by the Trump-Biden administrations. In addition to this, the Cuban-loving Brazilian President Lulu will himself fly to Havana later this month to lead the G-77 Plus China Summit that Cuba organized for September 15th and 16th of 2023!!

    The return of Lulu da Silva as the President of Brazil is the best possible gift that Cuban President Miguel Diaz-Canel and the Embargo-deprived citizens of Cuba could have hoped for in 2023. Lulu emerged from a terrible Brazilian prison to win the 2022 presidential election to unseat the dire anti-Cuban President Jair Bolsonaro.

    During his four years as President of Brazil Jair Bolsonaro was one of the only leaders in the entire world that supported U. S. President Donald Trump's extreme anti-Cuban policies, including putting Cuba on the very short of U. S. List of Nations that Support Terrorism, a List that the current Biden administration has left in place. So...in the U. S. replacing Trump with Biden has not helped soften the USA's ageless Embargo against Cuba, but in Brazil replacing Bolsonaro with Lulu does drastically soften the U. S. Embargo that three generations of Cubans have called a Blockade.

     Prior to the extreme anti-Cuban Trump-Bolsonaro alliance, the four straight presidential elections in Brazil had elected two extreme pro-Cuban Presidents -- Lulu da Silva from 2003 till 2010 and, when he was not eligible to run for a third 4-year term, his top aide, the Cuba-loving Dilma Rousseff, was elected to two 4-year terms as President of Brazil. But by the end of her second term President Rousseff was chased from office and former two-term President Lulu was put in prison for a long stretch...but incredibly Lulu emerged from prison to defeat and replace Bolsonaro -- a startling and incredible feat that now in 2023 has Lulu serving his third 4-year term as President of Brazil, the vital Latin American giant!!

    This is the six-decade-old EMBARGO of Cuba by its northern neighbor, the United States, which happens to be the strongest and richest nation in world history. The recent presidencies of  Trump in the U. S. and of Bolsonaro in Brazil had greatly exacerbated the effects of the EMBARGO in threatening Cubans on the island while enriching and empowering Cubans in Miami and Washington. The image shown above of the EMBARGO is now much less threatening now that Trump and Bolsonaro are no longer Presidents, but the biggest reason in 2023 that Cubans in Cuba are hopeful is...the re-election of Lulu as President of Brazil!!

    Out of prison and back as the democratically President of Brazil, the 77-year-old Lulu da Silva in September of 2023 is once again the best friend of Cuba's President Miguel Diaz-Canel and the Cuban people. The drastic change in the political climate in Brazil is the best thing for Cuba as the United States continues to tighten the already draconian sanctions on the largest and most vulnerable Caribban nation.

     For the lives of both the Cuban Revolution and Fidel Castro, Brazil's Lulu da Silva has been a staunch supporter of Cuba.

    From 2003 till 2010 Lulu da Silva was President of Brazil and then for the next two terms his closest aide Dilma Rousseff was elected President. After that Lulu imprisoned but released and then re-elected President of Brazil, the Latin American giant. The day Lulu was put in prison was an extremely sad day for the Cuban people. But now in September of 2023 the incredible return of Lulu as the current President of Brazil is the happiest development for the Cuban people in a long time!!
