Castroism's Culture Minister Assaults Journalist in Broad Daylight. Filmed Beating Journalist During Protest.

A group of Cuban dissidents who had assembled before the Ministry of Culture headquarters in Havana on Wednesday filmed Culture Minister Alpidio Alonso physically assaulting a journalist and stealing his mobile phone.

Alonso was among several Communist Party officials who resorted to violence in the face of a small, peaceful crowd assembling in front of the ministry to demand a say in how their government manages the artistic community. The group had also chosen the date as an homage to Cuban founding father and poet José Martí, born on January 28.

Reports indicate that fewer than 30 people had assembled before the Ministry of Culture, but the group was enough to intimidate officials into violence.

Martí: Communist?  What is happening today in Cuba, its instigators have told us, began with the attack on a barracks in Oriente. The intellectual responsibility for the monstrosity that resulted from that attack on Moncada has been attributed to José Martí. How much truth is there in that statement?

The Castro revolution is based on a foundation of lies. Cuba is the only case in the world where communism achieved power by insistently denying its Marxist essence. The methodological need to insert into praxis the "scientific" socialism of Marx and Engels institutionalized the lie. This was undoubtedly made more acute by the eccentric directives of the foreman of the Creole version: false nationalism, ruthless anti-Americanism and hypocritical anti-capitalism. The falsification of data, history and facts has been part of the modus operandi of Castroism. The Cuban communists have spared nothing when lying. It was to be expected that Cuba's distinguished figure would not escape the trolling onslaught.
