The war against Cuba: new budgets and the same premise
Presidents come and go in Washington, but the goal of U.S. foreign policy remains the same:
destabilize governments that dare to
defend their national sovereignty and destroy any revolution you venture in a
different world which is scheduled for them. The offensive weapons that the
United States used against Cuba have evolved over the past 50 years, but the
war is the same.
The cubanólogos Washington and Miami want
to build as a means of subversion on the island assumed a social and political
movement, cultivated, irrigated and harvested from the United States. But a
genuine national political movement is not manufactured in the enemy capital.
Political parties and movements are not exported as merchandise, because a
political party can not be bought or sold as if it were a can of spam.
Since George W. Bush assumed the U.S.
presidency in 2001, the budget to create a social opposition in Cuba, allied
with the interests of Miami and the White House, have skyrocketed, from $ 3.5
million in 2000 to U.S. $ 45 million in 2008 . Bush created a Commission in
2003 for "assistance to a democratic Cuba." The committee issued a
document of over 400 pages in which he proposes to "identify appropriate
means to end the Cuban regime quickly and organize the transition." The
policy of President Barack Obama follows the pattern that created the
Commission and the budget recommendation from the Commission "to undertake
measures aimed at training, development and strengthening of the opposition and
civil society in Cuba."
As the war against Cuba is an industry in Miami, the largest beneficiaries of this project were those who administered the funds from Florida. An audit of the Government Accountability Office (GAO) concluded in 2006 that fortune had been inappropriately spent by groups in Miami. For example, used it to buy Godiva chocolates, cans of crab meat and Nintendo Game Boys. In 2008, the director of a group admitted to stealing nearly $ 600,000 before resigning to take a political office in the White House of President Bush.
Angry at the waste of equity millionaire,
Senator Kerry (Democrat - Massachusetts), chairman of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, asked last year to review the project, which now has
budgeted $ 20 million to ano.Conseqüentemente, the Department State temporarily
froze the disbursement opulent conclude an investigation.
This month, the State Department concluded
their research and announced plans to release $ 20 million anti-Cuban heritage,
arguing that the program was restructured so that the funds arrive
clandestinely some Cubans on the island and not a few others in Miami. However,
Senator Kerry is not very convinced, and temporarily paralyzed the project to
be able to study it. The freeze, imposed Kerry is pragmatic, not philosophical.
That is, do not worry subversion. Want to study its effectiveness. The arrest
in Cuba of an American contractor, Allan P. Gross, sent by Washington, the
project illustrates that the State Department puts emperigo agents who were
hired terminal to perform this work clandestinely in Cuba.
The prosecutor examines the Cuban
accusations lodged against the contractor. To defend itself from subversion
millionaire originated in Washington, Cuba enacted a law that punishes a
sentence of up to 20 years in collaboration with USAID progarama that was
created by the Helms Burton Act of 1996. The offense is serious.
Who knows why, the State Department and
USAID refused to identify the recipients of money in Cuba in Washington, and
distribute the funds illegally.
The program against Cuba is in check
includes:
• $ 750,000 to promote human rights and democracy in Cuba.
• $ 250,000 to help the families of alleged political prisoners (for example, Caller ladies in white and the newly created drafts of support).
• $ 500,000 for those who struggle to
liberate the alleged political prisoners.
• $ 900,000 for the Freedom House. An organization that for 10 years was directed by Frank Calzón. The money would be to strengthen the supposed opposition leaders, artists, musicians and bloggers. With a cynical emphasis on Afro-Cuban.
• $ 400,000 for the Institute for Sustainable Communities. To deal with "identify the new leaders of the Cuban community" and help them in their advertising campaign and politics. That is, almost half a million dollars for Washington to identify new leaders among which divide the money.
• $ 200,000 allegedly to strengthen the support networks that Washington has created in Cuba. Provide equipment and training for them.
• $ 2,600,000 for Development Associates Inc. In order to expand the network to support Cuban Washington created to promote the message from Miami to Cuba.
• $ 2,000,000 to support similar groups in Cuba to Washington, especially certain women and Afro-Cuban, to promote individual economic initiative (ie, capitalism).
• $ 2,500,000 to promote, under the auspices of the Department of State, free speech on the island, especially among certain artists, musicians, writers, journalists and bloggers.
• $ 500,000 for individuals linked to religious or spiritual groups to defend their right for freedom of worship.
• $ 500,000 to promote a particular policy on the island and generate employment "international pressure against the Cuban government to reform its labor laws."
• $ 350,000 to influence certain groups of Cuban civil society, "especially women who are sexually exploited."
• $ 500,000 to NGOs and other organizations linked to Washington;
• U.S. $ 1,150,000 to train certain organizations, including journalists and bloggers in Cuba to use new information technologies.
• $ 2,500,000 to administer the programs of the budget.
All this under the tutelage of a Washington that has emerged in recent decades for their efforts to destabilize, invade and suppress in every continent of the planet: the coup in Chile against Salvador Allende, the military coup in Guatemala that left a balance of more than 200,000 dead and missing during four decades of repression, assassination attempt on President Hugo Chavez in 2002, support for death squads in Central America, Argentina, Paraguay, Uruguay and Brazil. The invasion of Iraq in 2003. The torutra and indefinite detention for prisoners at Guantanamo, sending prisoners to other countries other couple who are tortured and interrogated, exploitation, and mass deportations of illegal immigrants. Bay of Pigs, Operation Mongoose, JM Wave (the enclave terroista more powerful that ever existed on American soil) and the campaign of terror against Cuba in the last 50 years through the use of killers like Luis Posada Carriles and Orlando Bosch. Immoral and a terrorist war against Cuba that has multiplied like a virus until you find the world its modern manifestation in the destruction of the twin towers in New York on September 11, 2001.
Cuba is a country blockaded, besieged and attacked by the United States. Thus, because Washington is not governed ailha toelra that away from U.S. tutelage. It was that way for over 50 years.
The alleged political prisoners were convicted after being prosecuted for being in the service of an enemy country that aims at destroying the Cuban Revolution. Just as the contractor Alan P. Gross work in Cuba under the direction of Washington. The best way to get his release is that the United States to renounce war against Cuba, lift the blockade, establish relations, to extradite Posada Carriles and free the Five who imprisoned them in the United States for nearly 12 years.
President Obama may be too busy with the economy, the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and health care reform to pay much attention to Cuba. Maybe this has left little problem for buracratas State Department and National Security Council, and we are where we are.
This amounts to an erroneous premise. Over 100 years of U.S. aggression against Cuba are based on the misconception that Cuba belongs to Washington. Also assume the arrogant assessment of the then Secretary of State John Quincy Admas in 1823:
From this premise flows the wrong concetio that states can make Unidops dissidents, bloggers and Twitterers, soba tutelage of Washington or Miami, like a natural law that like to proceed. That this development may have some foreign legitimacy in Cuba is a myth in which only those who believe not know the island and do not live there. With millions of dollars by investing in the business year, Washington did not create an opposition, let alone a political party. Only an established industry people in Cuba happy to receive a significant sum of money to dissent, blogging and tweeting.
In Cuba, there are a wide variety of legitimate views on the future of the country. Anyone familiar with the matter, or participating in the discussions held on the island knows. These debates take place both in the workplace, and in meetings of the Party. But there is unanimity on something: Cuba belongs to Cubans, not the Americans. For this philosophical principle martiniano1, the Cubans are willing to close ranks and eventually die.
If Washington understood this, and would block everything that goes with it. However, it is a concept that seems unnatural to an imperial Washington sees his backyard in Cuba policy. Silvio Rodriguez said the other day in the House of the Americas that Cuba is not a normal country, because not intended to be, nor the treatment given to it by pretending to be. Independent.
The Americans did not invade Cuba because of the help of the Russians!
