Biden-Harris’ Soft Rapprochement with Castrosim.

Over two months have passed since the Cuban Uprising of July 11. On that Sunday, thousands of people in over fifty localities across the Island took to the streets to demand “Freedom” and “Down with Communism”. More than five thousand individuals were either imprisoned or investigated, according to 14ymedio. A brutal crackdown ensued. There are still over five hundred and five people detained and/or disappeared, fifteen of them minors, according to Cubalex, a human rights group. What has been the Biden-Harris response? A soft rapprochement with Castro-Communism is what is in the works.

The Biden-Harris administration committed itself, on July 22, to having “study groups” recommend six different policy initiatives regarding the Cuban Uprising. Of the six, two have nothing to do with satisfying the calls for freedom and justice by the Cuban people, three are pointless as they have been tainted and are ideologically tabulated, and one is a moot point at this stage. Let us examine the irrelevant ones first.

The Unlearned Lessons from 9/11.

For many, September 11 (9/11) marks a dreadful event that changed America and the West forever. In less than 2 ½ hours, 2,977 people died, over 25,000 were injured, all mostly civilians, in New York City, Washington D.C., and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. The horrific and targeted attacks on the World Trade Center, the Pentagon, and the intended U.S. Capitol Building were all chosen by the Muslim fundamentalist killers for what they represented for: the capitalist system, the military establishment that defends freedom, and a prototypical representation of republican governance. The recent giveaway of Afghanistan to the very regime that sheltered the material authors of this heinous crime, suggests that America and the West have not learned much from 9/11.

The first and most profound flaw was believing (or publicly expressing) that this act of savagery carried out by nineteen Saudi Al-Qaeda members, was a singular phenomenon executed by a specific group. When the Bush II administration labeled the belligerent response to this attack the “War on Terror”, to not “offend” followers of Islam, America and the West was on the wrong path. 9/11 was different, but not in the way politicians and the mainstream media claimed.

Why is the United States, in Addition to the United Nations and the EU, Helping the Taliban?

The massive amount of weaponry that the Biden-Harris administration has donated to the Taliban regime has not impeded the National Resistance Front led by Ahmad Massoud from resisting the fundamentalist onslaught. The Panjshir Valley is still today a free Afghanistan. One would have thought that the desire to end a military presence in a country would not set aside systemic safety ramifications for republican societies. Developments keep pointing to a concerning string of events that are inconsistent with the defense of freedom. Why are the U.N., E.U., and the U.S. helping the Taliban?

The illiberal nature of Sharia law, an indispensable component of political Islam, should suffice to warn all freedom-believing countries, regions, and institutions about the futility of supporting Islamic fundamentalism in the hopes that movements like the Taliban can be tamed in the absence of force or other aggressive deterrents. When one adds to the equation the place that jihad with its perennial war against the Judeo-Christian civilization has, it becomes inconceivable that no effort is being made to help the Afghans that are challenging the Taliban, much less come to their aid.

America’s Labor Day.

Every first Monday of September, the United States celebrates Labor Day. A federal holiday since 1894, it honors, not just the labor movement, but all who contribute with their work to make America better. This day which, traditionally, closes out the summer season has a controversial beginning. This is best explained when one ponders why most countries in the world celebrate their version of a day dedicated to the workforce on May 1^st.

Five Germans, one German American, an Englishman and a former Confederate American soldier, all anarcho-socialists, are the reason for the May 1^st worker’s day observance in most of the world. Their names were August Spies, Albert Parsons, George Engel, Adolph Fischer, Louis Lingg, Michael Schwab, Oscar Neebe, and Samuel Fielden. The socialist movement was very much intertwined with anarchism and labor organizations. Socialism’s obsession with dominating all worker groups, something very visible in the 19^th century, in fact was an integral part of Soviet communism’s strategy for world hegemony.
