Guest columnist.Perhaps the United States government—along with certain politicians, social and religious leaders, academics, and journalists—will finally convince themselves that those in power in Cuba fervently hate everything this country embodies. Periodically, in this powerful nation, an influential sin-eater emerges who identifies with tyrannical governments and takes it upon themselves to defend inept rulers who constantly violate the rights of their citizens.
One of the regimes most benefited by these deeply guilty individuals who mistakenly hold their country responsible for all the world's ills has been the Castro dictatorship, with former President Barack Hussein Obama being the best ally that Caribbean totalitarianism has ever had in the White House.
By the way, it seems that the now-millionaire Obama's guilt trip passed when he left office, since, as far as we know, he hasn't spoken out again on behalf of his colleague in Havana, Raúl Castro, much less on behalf of Raúl Guillermo Rodríguez Castro, better known as "The Crab," the dictator's grandson. Obama, the generous man, hasn't made any provision for even a bit of his capital to alleviate the misery suffered by the people he tried to save from the embargo.
The former president, for whatever reasons, ordered his ambassador to the United Nations, Ms. Power, to abstain from the annual vote on the U.S. embargo against Cuba. It's worth remembering that the senior official said that Washington would change its policy toward Cuba because it "failed to achieve its goal of isolating Cuba and, in fact, isolated the United States," a completely false statement.
These individuals may be very talented, but they do not understand, or do not want to understand, that the problem with Caribbean totalitarianism is that it repudiates capitalism, which conceives freedom as a fundamental good and respects the enjoyment of citizens' rights. On the contrary, they positively value state capitalism, which is characterized by its rigid social control.
The Cuban totalitarian state operates based on the convictions and motives of its founding leaders, among whom Fidel Castro, who never ceased to profess the most negative sentiments toward this nation, stood out for his perversity.
Many have forgotten that the island satrap, in the heart of the Sierra Maestra Mountains, before the triumph of the insurrection, told his accomplice Celia Sánchez, "Seeing the rockets they fired at Mario's house, I swore to myself that the Americans are going to pay dearly for what they are doing. When this war is over, a much longer and bigger war will begin for me: the war I am going to wage against them. I realize that this will be my true destiny."
In his hatred of this country, he involved a significant segment of the Cuban people, seduced by his delusions of grandeur and false promises of making Cuba a better country with progress for all.
Many on the island accepted the proposal in good faith, and upon realizing that it was all a fraud, they abandoned it and fought against what they had helped to build. Others allowed themselves to be manipulated by the tyrant's falsehoods, providing the system imposed on the largest of the Antilles with an army of imbeciles, because it is impossible to continue calling them useful fools.
The regimes of Cuba, Nicaragua, Venezuela, and Bolivia are allies of Russia, Iran, and China; therefore, they should be considered strongholds of the enemy in our hemisphere and acted upon accordingly. To ignore janissaries like Daniel Ortega, Nicolas Maduro, Evo Morales, and Raúl Castro, among others who would make this list very extensive, is to be complicit in criminals.
This nation, because of the values it embodies, has permanent enemies that transcend the political, such as organized crime and drug trafficking, for which it has implemented legislation that supports state policies to combat them. A similar mandate must be established to confront political projects that regularly feed on criminals who assume the social mission as an instrument to manipulate citizens and personal enrichment, making it extremely difficult for "redeemers" to emerge who aid the enemy.
