US Dogma Still a Bust against
Cuba
The threats that the US
government and Miami-based
anti-Cuba groups have made
against the Caribbean Island
over the past few hours repeat
the same old errors that have
resulted in failure for decades.
According to the
generally-mistaken analyses by
US strategists, the current
situation involving President
Fidel Castro s illness is
favorable to publicly renovate
Washington s goal of destroying
the Cuban revolutionary process.
Once again, US President George
W. Bush spoke about Washington s
willingness to implement a plan
with a secret annex that
contains clandestine and violent
projects.
Unconcerned about accusations of
interference, Bush defended a
"Cuban transitional government"
and ignored the validity of the
measures, which were taken in
compliance with the Cuban
Constitution, for Fidel Castro
to delegate his responsibilities
temporarily.
Raul Castro is the first vice
president of the country,
ratified by the Parliament, and
in the political sphere, he has
been the second secretary of the
Communist Party of Cuba since
its Central Committee was
created in 1965.
At the same time, the main
spokesperson for Miami-based
White House-sponsored
organizations has spoken about
long-yearned military and civil
uprisings in Cuba and about an
uncertain situation that not
even foreign correspondents in
Havana have seen.
Bush s statements on television,
after a meeting with those
groups, can be described as a
sort of carbon copy of those
made for nearly 50 years by the
same characters and their
offspring.
Like on previous occasions,
their authors, resembling
ostriches hiding their head in
the ground, refuse to
acknowledge the truth about the
present situation in Cuba.
The normal situation reported in
Cuba, and the people s support
for Fidel Castro s letter, in
addition to their commitment to
increasing production and
developing social programs and
the country s defense, are part
of the current reality.
In addition, the threatening
adversaries seem to forget that
similar attempts in the past,
and even direct aggressions, not
only resulted in failure, but in
strengthening and radicalizing
the Revolution.
Since 1959, Cubans have
successfully countered a
large-scale terrorist offensive
organized and sponsored by the
Central Intelligence Agency
(CIA) and supported by
successive US administrations.
One after another, hundreds of
plots to assassinate Fidel
Castro and other leaders were
frustrated by Cuba s
intelligence agencies.
The high level of organization
and efficiency achieved by the
Cuban armed forces and their
strategic defense in which the
entire people take part, is
currently a warning to those who
have ignored Cuban history over
the past half a century.
