Intervention” has become a much-used word since the Cuban Uprising of July 11th began. Those determined to uphold the status quo in communist Cuba, are weaponizing the concept and misconstruing the full gravity of its meaning in actual application. Determined to keep the United States in a state of indifference and complicit inertia, enemies of Cuba’s liberation have launched a war of disinformation with bogus potential scenarios, to assure that Castro-Communism survives the biggest civil insurrection in all Cuban history. While all this is going on, China has been and continues its intervention in Cuba.
To call the wholesale human butchery, sadistic tortures, sham trials, unjust sentences, and ideologically geared pandemic policy in Cuba a “humanitarian” crisis, is to trivialize political genocide. The crimes against humanity that the Castroist regime is currently committing, is made possible by China’s intervention in Cuba. The calculated, lesser-evil gambit of allowing Cubans’ internet access by way of mobile electronic devices as late as 2018, was a tough call for the socialist dictatorship in Havana. The compelling need for capital to fund its lavish police state and sustain power, forced the tolerance of mechanisms that they knew would be used by the Cuban population to break the monopolistic hold on news and information. This is where Beijing stepped in.

Stephen R. Soukup, senior commentator, Vice President, publisher of The Political Forum, and author of The Dictatorship of Woke Capital: How Political Correctness Captured Big Business (Encounter Books, 2021) recently sat down with El American for a one-on-one discussion over the dangers that the free enterprising system is facing.
The market economy, contends Soukup, is “facing a day of reckoning” because of woke capitalism, a subject matter he has mastered and skillfully communicates in his magnificent new book.

There is a big difference between a state-directed foreign relations policy and political pandering. The Truman Doctrine was the established American foreign policy that sought to contain the advancement of Soviet communism. It ran, approximately, from the end of World War II until 1981. It was replaced with the more aggressive policy of rolling back communism. The Berlin Wall did not just “fall.” It was torn down by the Reagan Doctrine.
There is an ongoing war of liberation going on right now, thirty minutes from the Florida coast. Biden is ignoring a golden opportunity to help liberate Cuba.
The Soviet Union’s collapse, an endgame of America’s socialism reversal Cold War strategy, brought about communism’s mutation. Three reformulated Marxist-Leninist models ensued following 1989. Asian communism, the Leninist state with a hybrid economy such as the “China model”, is what has prevailed in China, Vietnam, and Laos. North Korea, existing as a full-fledged China dependency, has had the luxury of maintaining its stalwart Stalinist prototype. In functional democracies, cultural Marxism — following the Gramscian-Frankfurt School amalgam of cultural hegemony and Critical Theory variants — was the tool that replaced the Comintern.

Communist Cuba has made an art out of producing strange medical ailments and mysterious deaths. These are but more “achievements” of the socialist revolution.
The Havana Syndrome, an incapacitating, permanent ailment that has left dozens of American diplomats and their families deaf and handicapped for life — because of a suspected espionage attempt to steal information from electronic devices from a distance — is now joined by a mysterious string of deaths of high-ranking military and state security officers since the July 11th Cuban Uprising began. Why are Cuban generals dying?
Agustín Peña Porres, Manuel Eduardo Lastres Pacheco, Marcelo Verdecia Perdomo, Rubén Martínez Puente, and Armando Choy Rodriguez are the names of the top generals from the Cuban Revolutionary Armed Forces (FAR) and the Ministry of the Interior (MININT: state security) who have died within an eight-day period following the mass popular anti-regime protests and the ensuing barbaric crackdown.
