(5)>>America’s policy on Cuba is one of its stupidest. We are now 30 years out of the Cold War. Yet here we are, still treating Cuba like an enemy of the state. They are a passive, decent people with different government we don’t approve of. I don’t like communism, but why should we embargo a decent nation that has zero interest in getting in our way?How many other awful, disgusting governments do we do business with much less don’t embargo than Cuba? It’s even more screwed up the US will keep its restrictions on Cuba while simultaneously not allowing their people asylum. The United States is expected to soon announce initial steps as part of the Biden administration’s review of Cuba policy and in response to Havana's crackdown on the biggest street protests in decades, State Department officials said on Monday. The senior officials’ comments further signaled that President Joe Biden was not ready to soften the U.S. approach after his predecessor, Donald Trump, rolled back a historic Obama-era détente with Havana, and that the latest Cuban unrest would have a significant impact on any policy moves. Thousands of Cubans staged spontaneous anti-government protests a week ago to demonstrate against an economic crisis that has seen shortages of basic goods and power outages. They were also protesting the government's handling of the corona-virus pandemic and curbs on civil liberties. Scores of activists were detained. Fortunately for those who regard a potential US invasion of Cuba as insane. WITH COVID spreading on the island of Cuba , the island is going to explode with unrest in the next few months . The humanitarian aide between Haiti and Cuba is going to be a tremendous burden on American might . It should not be under-stated how fervently these Cuban-American populations want concrete US military action. It might not be a good thing if you look at Russia , China flexing their ambitions against the American interventionist policies . It’s extremely easy to posture as an “anti-interventionist” in the abstract — few would overtly brand as a committed “interventionist” these days — and then throw your skepticism out the window when it comes to specific circumstances in which you think it’d be a great idea to deploy US power to topple a foreign government right amid a growing pandemic .Joe Biden, the US president, said in a statement: “We stand with the Cuban people and their clarion call for freedom and relief from the tragic grip of the pandemic and from decades of repression and economic suffering to which they have been subjected to by Cuba’s authoritarian regime.” BIG Question now which authoritarian regime is responsible for Haiti and Cuba looking , just looking for a excuse to invade , and occupy .
NOTES AND COMMENTS:
(1)>>United States to be able to understand this assassination. It sounds like a Miami based security company - CTU hired the Colombian Mercs that were involved. It also sounds like CTU and the Colombian Mercs, weren’t entirely aware of what they had got into. Most of them are saying they thought they were providing anti-terror security. The fact that most of the Colombian Mercs were ex-military and some were previously trained in the US, is purely incidental.The question really is - who hired CTU?Some of the former Colombian servicemen arrested after last week’s assassination of Haiti’s president previously received U.S. military training, according to the Pentagon, raising fresh questions about the United States’ ties to Jovenel Moïse’s death.“A review of our training databases indicates that a small number of the Colombian individuals detained as part of this investigation had participated in past U.S. military training and education programs, while serving as active members of the Colombian Military Forces,” Lt. Col. Ken Hoffman, a Pentagon spokesman, said in a statement to The Washington Post.The Pentagon’s review is ongoing, Hoffman said. He did not say how many of the men received training or precisely what it entailed.Sen. Patrick J. Leahy (D-Vt.), whose legislation provides oversight to foreign defense aid used in human rights abuses, said the episode was a grim reminder that U.S. assistance to other countries can take unexpected turns. (2)>>This assassination is going to destabilize the country for years. Moise’s assassination leaves Haiti with an unstable government and an increasingly frustrated population. In addition to the current state of siege implemented by Joseph, Haiti’s interim government has formally asked the US to send security assistance to protect infrastructure including Haiti’s seaport, airport, and gasoline reserves as a precautionary measure. During a briefing Friday, White House press secretary Jen Psaki offered measured support, saying, “we will be sending senior FBI and DHS officials to Port-au-Prince as soon as possible to assess the situation and how we may be able to assist.” Moise himself had a tumultuous presidency beginning in 2017, marked by authoritarian tactics and inability to gain the Haitian people’s trust. Soon after he was elected, Moise revived the nation’s army, disbanded two decades before. This was a controversial decision in a country still dealing with the aftermath of its catastrophic 2010 earthquake, stoking fears that the army would drain already limited resources. Further skepticism came from the army’s history of human rights abuses and the multiple coups it had carried out. The decision to bring the army back set the tone for Moise’s presidency, as he continuously prioritized his interests and power over those of the people. In the absence of a functioning legislature, Haitian law allows the president to rule by decree, and in January 2020, Moise refused to hold parliamentary elections and dismissed all of the country’s elected mayors, consolidating his power. (3)>>it could lead to such evidence if it exists. Venezuela presented evidence linking the Colombian mercenaries behind the murder of Haiti's President Jovenel Moïse to a 2018 assassination attempt on President Maduro. Both involved Florida-based firm CTU Security, run by a right-wing Venezuelan-American. Several of the men involved in the assassination of Haiti's President previously worked as US law enforcement informants, according to people briefed on the matter, as US investigators grapple with an increasing number of Florida links to the alleged hit squad.(4)>>Haitian government for U.S. forces to be deployed. While anything could happen, it’s doubtful that Joe Biden will accede to these demands for military intervention. But in some ways, the pro-intervention advocacy on display in New Jersey could be even more influential on a Democratic administration than the pro-intervention advocacy also rabidly underway in South Florida, where Cubans are more reliably Republican. (GOP mayor of Miami Francis Suarez just called for US airstrikes.) Hudson County, NJ on the other hand is a major Democratic stronghold, and so calls for military action emanating out of it could scramble some of the expected partisan configurations surrounding the issue. (5)>>America’s policy on Cuba is one of its stupidest. If the US never put a boycott on Cuba, it would probably one of the American countries with the best living conditions right now. Imagine having a small country with not too much resources and the biggest predator of the earth tells you for basically existing outside of its control. They killed the Cuban economy simply to prove a point. Dying and starving people in pandemic situation has destroyed Cuba .
