May 20: A Disastrous Day in Cuban History
May 20, 1902, is a day that free Cubans throught the world, and inside the island, no longer celebrate. On that fateful day, the Yankee imperialists installed on the Cuban "presidency" a U.S. boot-licker called Tomas Estrada Palma. He was a U.S. citizen and served his Yankee master very faithfully. He would not be the last puppet installed by the Ugly Americans. Machado, Grau, Prio and Batista would follow.
Y en eso llego Fidel! He would lead the most important struggle for national independence. Eisenhower would send Batista millions of tax-payers dollars to try to stop Cuba's last liberation war. It was a failure. Right under the noses of the imperialists, Cubans decided to build a socialist state.
The thoroughly corrupt and immoral John F. Kennedy decided he was going to send a "liberation" brigade to bring capitalism back to the island. The Cuban people slapped them on the face in about 66 hours at the Bay of Pigs.
The Yankees never learned their lesson. As recently as 2000 and 2008, two more POTUS would try to peddle their fake "change" garbage. The results were the same.
Liberation Day in Cuba is now celebrated the First of January every year.

Open up to Cuba
I visited Cuba a few weeks ago, and was surprised to find not only a wonderful island, but warm-hearted, happy, resilient, and, most important, just-plain folks working hard to maintain a sense of dignity.
One of our lecturers told us "changes are slow, but they are relentless." You can see those changes everywhere: houses for sale by individual owners; artisans markets (budding entrepreneurs); rooms for rent to tourists (using the Internet to advertise); and so much more.
For Cuban-Americans in Congress to say that Mariela Castro Espin "will spread communist propaganda to promote her father's regime" is absurd ("Castro daughter's U.S. visit stirs backlash," Orlando Sentinel, Friday).
I feel it is time to lift the embargo and let the Cuban people show the world what they can do, if given half a chance.

"Yes, they granted it (the visa) and pretty quickly," said the spokesman for the National Center for Sexual Education, which Mariela Castro heads.
The US State Department would neither confirm nor deny that Castro had been given the visa, citing US privacy laws.
Castro, 50, will attend the annual conference of the Latin American Studies Association on May 23-26 in San Francisco, and sources said she would be on a panel tackling the issue of sexual diversity.
As head of the National Center for Sexual Education, Castro is currently leading a national campaign against homophobia in Cuba.

Marco Rubio Wants to Look Over Your Shoulder
Marco Rubio wants to look over your shoulder to find out where you are traveling to during your vacation.
And, of course, he also wants to find out if you are inviting a man into your bedroom, rather than a woman.
The best description for Marco Rubio is: RIGHT WING NUT!
Now that you have read my first three line, please go and read an article re-published in the Seattle Times (?) and written by prominent Miami gusano Juan Tamayo.

Why Did a London Man Join the Socialist Party?

'Socialism: the thinking person's economics!'
Ravi Patel, West London Socialist Party
My seven-year-old saw me reading the pamphlet 1917 - The Year that Changed the World, by Peter Taafe and Hannah Sell.
"What's that?" he demanded. "What's it about?"I resorted to that phrase well known to fathers everywhere. "Umm... Errr... Hmm... Errmm..."
"What is it about?" So what the hell, I figured. I've explained why Doctor Who's Tardis is smaller on the outside and big on the inside, and what the acronym T-A-R-D-I-S stands for (Time and Relative Dimension in Space). I can try and explain the Russian Revolution and Karl Marx. "It's about somebody named Karl Marx," I said. "It's about why he was right."
"Right about what?"
"About not liking capitalism. He didn't like capitalism."
Blank stare.
"Do you know what capitalism is?" I asked. "No."
"Okay, you know how everybody buys and sells everything?"
"Yeah?"
"That's capitalism. And Marx didn't like it." He had an expression halfway between incredulity and boredom. "Why didn't he like it?"
"Well, with the system where everybody buys and sells and tries to make as much money as they can, you end up with some people who have a lot of money who own the factories, and then some people have only a little money and work in the factories. And Marx thought that was unfair. He said that the people who work in the factories should own the factories."
"Oh." Pause for thought. "That makes sense." "Yes," I said. "But some people really don't like that idea."
Then his eyes lit up. "The factory owners don't like it, I bet!"
So there you have it. Socialist ideas are intuitive enough that even a seven-year old can understand them.
But in 2001 I was an approved candidate for the Conservative Party to stand in the local elections. For most of my life I had been a Tory supporter. I thought that if the leftists got into government, democracy and freedom would be rejected in favour of a Stalinist totalitarian regime with bread queues extending for miles.
I believed the capitalist propaganda, after all with the fall of the Berlin Wall, which led to the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union, things were not looking awfully good for socialism in general.
In November 2005 I went to Dubai and started consultant work in the booming real estate sector. I turned a blind eye to the slave labour conditions that existed to build these magnificent palaces on artificial islands in the sea, and tried to justify to myself that it was part of life which I had no control over.
In August 2007 my mother fell over while disembarking from a bus en route to Southall, west London. She suffered severe head injuries, and as a consequence her Parkinson's disease was made worse. Being the only son, I left my job in Dubai and became a full time carer looking after my mother 24 hours a day.
Ealing council, hampered by budget cuts, failed to provide my mother with an adequate service in terms of regular respite care and all the necessary apparatus.
At this point in time I started to question my belief in capitalism, I felt ashamed that during my good times I was happy being a capitalist, and now during the bad times, I was dancing to a different tune.
The financial crisis kicked off in late 2008, the banks were failing, and national governments were bailing out the entire banking system with bailout after bailout with no end in sight. I felt totally disgusted with crony capitalism, bailouts for the rich and cuts for the poor.
The UK government spent £117 billion buying shares in banks and lending directly to financial institutions, the National Audit Office calculated. That represented a liability of £5,530 for every one of the 21.1 million families in Britain. So it's socialism for the rich and austerity for the working class, how can this be fair?
So it hit me: socialism is the thinking man's economics.
The choice should be rather obvious to you. You can believe that New Labour and the Con-Dems have the working class person's best interests at heart. Or, if not, if you have to hesitate and think about that for even a couple of seconds, then maybe you're just a 'closet socialist' and too scared to admit it!

Shit-Heads @ The Heritage Fundation
What can you expect from fanatical right-wingers?
Nothing but shit and more shit!
One of the blogs published by the scum who work at the Heritage Foundation are all pissed-off because the U.S. State Department may or will grant a visa to Mariela Castro Espin, the daughter of Raul Castro, who plans to visit San Francisco for a meeting of the Latin America Studies Association.
The shit which they publish calls Fidel and Raul Castro dictators.
What is a dictator for a Yankee imperialist? One that does not kiss the ass of Uncle Sam on a daily basis!
Go back to your sand box, you Yankee scum!

For those Cuba Journal readers who can read English and Spanish
I get quite a lot of visits from Miami GUSANOS. They make me laugh a lot.
They hide behind anonymity because they do not have the necessary COJONES to act like a man.
Fidel Castro had what it takes on July 26, 1953, and he even had bigger huevos when he landed from the Granma on December 2, 1956. The rest is history.
The Miami GUSANOS think that by putting a bomb in a business or by leaving silly messages @ Cuba Journal they are accomplishing something. What fools!
Now go the CJ post, see the comments, and laugh with me:

Cuba offshore drilling may hit oil reservoir soon
Orlando Sentinel
May, 10 2012 1:55 PM
May, 10 2012 1:55 PM
By William E. Gibson, Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON — A Spanish company drilling an exploratory well north of Havana is within a week of reaching its target: an oil reservoir believed to lie under Cuban waters roughly 60 miles from Florida.
That’s the word from energy and environmental experts who met in Washington on Thursday to discuss plans to prevent or respond to a potential oil spill and protect South Florida’s delicate coastline.
The experts, who are in touch with Cuban officials and the Spanish company Repsol, say the drilling has been done in a slow and safe manner. But they warned that plans to respond to a potential oil spill are still hampered by the U.S. embargo of Cuba, which restricts the equipment and personnel that can be sent to prepare in case of a blowout.
“In every way, I think the Cuban approach to this is responsible and appropriate to the risk they are undertaking,” said William K Reilly, former administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency under former President George H.W. Bush.
But the U.S. government, he said, “has not interpreted its sanctions policy in a way that would clearly make available in advance the kind of technologies that would be required.”
That includes capping equipment needed to stop a major leak, he said. “That includes even the spare parts to a blowout preventer.”
He and several oil industry and environmental experts urged President Barack Obama to grant a general license for American companies to rush into Cuban waters without restriction to help stop a spill at its source.
The staging area for needed equipment should be in Cuba for a fast response, they said, but instead it is being assembled by Helix Energy Systems near Tampa. Some equipment will also be housed in South Florida.
The Coast Guard cannot enter Cuban-controlled waters without permission from the Cuban government. But Coast Guard officials say they are increasingly confident that the Cubans would allow them to help cap and contain a spill at the source.
The initial drilling is within a week of reaching the depth needed to tap an expected reservoir beneath Cuban waters, said Lee Hunt, past president of the International Association of Drilling Contractors.
“The desirability for a command center in a Cuban port for spill-response staging is very high,” Hunt said. “The likelihood of it happening? Nil.”

Intacta la Política Hostil de Estados Unidos Contra Cuba
La Habana, 10 may (Prensa Latina) A casi cuatro años de la asunción del presidente
estadounidense, Barak Obama, las expectativas de un cambio de actitud de
su gobierno respecto a Cuba están muy lejos de cumplirse, consideró
aquí una diplomática de alto rango.
Si bien Obama adoptó algunas medidas de carácter positivo para la relación entre ambos países, los aspectos fundamentales que caracterizan la política hacia la isla no han sido modificados, afirmó la directora de América del Norte de la Cancillería cubana, Josefina Vidal.
En una entrevista concedida a la cadena televisiva CNN en español, difundida aquí, la funcionaria subrayó que las sanciones económicas como el bloqueo, cuyas pérdidas al país son estimadas en 975 mil millones de dólares, siguen intactas.
"Tampoco han sido revisados los llamados programas para promover cambios en Cuba, que son programas ilegales en nuestro país, en tanto tratan de buscar un cambio que solo a nuestro pueblo le compete adoptar o decidir", comentó.
Vidal expresó, además, que continúan las transmisiones radiales y televisivas diseñadas contra la isla; y la permanencia del país en las listas negras del Departamento de Estado que tratan de deslegitimar a la nación caribeña.
Asimismo, reiteró la disposición cubana a sostener un diálogo político, abarcador de todos los problemas, para identificar áreas de interés común e impulsar la cooperación bilateral.
Respecto al caso del estadounidense Alan Gross, encarcelado aquí por actos contra la independencia nacional, la funcionaria señaló que los medios tratan de equiparar su proceso con el de René González, antiterrorista cubano que cumplió una sentencia de 13 años en Estados Unidos y se encuentra bajo libertad supervisada.
Al ser interrogada sobre una petición de Gross de visitar a su madre enferma, Vidal aclaró que los casos son distintos, pues el norteamericano se encuentra al inicio de su condena, y como ocurre en otros países, en tales condiciones no está permitido que las personas salgan del territorio donde cumplen su sanción.
Recordó que Gerardo Hernández, otro de los cinco cubanos apresados junto a René González en 1998 por informar de acciones terroristas perpetradas en el sur de la Florida contra la isla, perdió a su madre mientras cumplía su pena de cárcel y no se le permitió viajar para visitarla.

Solidarity Forever!
- When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run,
- There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun;
- Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one,
- But the union makes us strong.
- CHORUS:
- Solidarity forever,
- Solidarity forever,
- Solidarity forever,
- For the union makes us strong.
- Is there aught we hold in common with the greedy parasite,
- Who would lash us into serfdom and would crush us with his might?
- Is there anything left to us but to organize and fight?
- For the union makes us strong.
- Chorus
- It is we who plowed the prairies; built the cities where they trade;
- Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid;
- Now we stand outcast and starving midst the wonders we have made;
- But the union makes us strong.
- Chorus
- All the world that's owned by idle drones is ours and ours alone.
- We have laid the wide foundations; built it skyward stone by stone.
- It is ours, not to slave in, but to master and to own.
- While the union makes us strong.
- Chorus
- They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn,
- But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn.
- We can break their haughty power, gain our freedom when we learn
- That the union makes us strong.
- Chorus
- In our hands is placed a power greater than their hoarded gold,
- Greater than the might of armies, magnified a thousand-fold.
- We can bring to birth a new world from the ashes of the old
- For the union makes us strong.

Beware When the U.S. Government Disseminates Two Words: Dissident & Transition
You do not have to be an expert in
politics or ideology to realize that the U.S. government is an
imperialist government.
You will probably turn around and ask
me: what is imperialism?
In Das Kapital, Karl Marx
considered imperialism to be part of the prehistory of the
capitalist mode of production. Conversely, Lenin defined imperialism
as "the highest stage of capitalism", the era in which
monopoly finance capital becomes dominant, forcing nations and
corporations to compete for control over resources and markets all
over the world. Lenin's theory of imperialism has since been adopted
by a majority of Marxists. (Source: Wikipedia)
The U.S. government is an imperialist
government. Of that there is no doubt. Its history is very clear: it
seeks to subjugate the lands of other peoples. It seeks, legally or
illegally, to advance the interests of its huge capitalist
corporations. It never defends the interests of the working class.
Both George W. Bush and Barack H. Obama are imperialists.
Both Dubbya & El Negrito have
always tried to advance and promote “dissidents” and
“transitions.”
They must think that the peoples of the
world are stupid.
In the case of a nation that is
closest, geographically, to the United States – Cuba – they have
used those two words ad nauseum.
What they really mean is: we seek to
take over your country (using mercenary dissidents, like Yoani
Sanchez, Coco Fariñas,
the Ladies in White and others) and transition your nation back to capitalism.
Or like Sherlock Holmes would have
said: “Elementary, my dear Watson!”
