“Nag, Nag, Nag!” Jewish Intransigents drove Kissinger Crazy

nagging-wife-curlers-202x230

American Jewish groups, lobbying the Nixon administration on behalf of their Soviet brethren, got under White House adviser Henry Kissinger’s skin so much that he denounced them as self-serving ‘bastards’, newly released documents reveal.

The comments were made in August 1972, when appeals were flooding the White House over the Kremlin’s levying of fees for exit permits.

One such letter was from the Israeli prime minister, Golda Meir, appealing to the White House to end its strategy of ‘quiet diplomacy’, and for Mr Nixon to take up the issue with Soviet leaders directly.

Entire UK Dailymail story here.

….just something about this story made me wonder what Hillary Clinton says in private about such as Ileana, Mauricio, David Rivera, Diaz-Balart, etc. :”Why can’t they SHUT-UP and behave like good little Cuba Experts!”

I bet Kissinger never had problems with “Mid-East Experts.”

Typical media imbecility regarding Cuba (Dallas Morning News this time)

(Top) 2nd in Command of Bay of Pigs freedom-fighters, Erneido Oliva. (Bottom) Black Bay of Pigs paratroopers Tomas Cruz and Sergio Carrillo greeted by fellow Cuban exiles in Miami upon their release from Castro’s prisons.

“If you asked white Cubans in the old guard whether their black compatriots classified as exiles, more than a few would pause before answering. And the honest ones would say no.” (Gabriel Escobar, Dallas Morning News, Nov, 13, 2011)

In 1959 Cuba was 71 per cent white. If a scientifically precise cross-section of its population had fled Castro in the early years, the exile make-up would still have been overwhelmingly white. Somebody please inform Mr Escobar that the defining issue for the “historic” exiles (The Bay of Pigs invasion) had a Cuban black as second in command and Cuban blacks and mulattoes participating at only slightly under their representation of the Cuban population at the time.

Any former political prisoner of the time can inform Mr Escobar about the number of blacks filling Castro’s prisons in the early 60’s. As explained by the black Cuban businessman Luis Pons, in the early years, the Castroites denied many Cuban blacks exit visas PRECISELY because of their color. Their mass exile didn’t jive with glorious picture of the revolution presented by the Castro regime’s U.S. media auxiliaries.

And, of course, these U.S. media auxiliaries are still at it.

Absolutely Un-‘Freakin-Real.

In Memory of the Pacific’s Audie Murphy and other Unsung Heroes

Mr. Johnson 5garciasosa-camejo_felixgaleriab2506b

(Top left) General Yamashita surrenders to U.S. Army officers on Luzon.

When Japan’s ferocious General Tomoyuki Yamashita (“The Tiger of Malaya”) finally emerged from his headquarters on Luzon to surrender on September 2nd 1945 he handed his pistol, samurai sword and battle flag to the nearest U.S. soldier he saw. This was staff sergeant Manuel Perez-Garcia of the 32nd Infantry Division (on right, above.) Perez-Garcia was born in Cuba but immigrated to the U.S. after Pearl Harbor to join the U.S. Army and volunteer for combat.

At war’s end the 82nd Airborne? presented a special trophy to the U.S. soldier who had racked up the most enemy kills in the Pacific theater. Today that trophy sits prominently in Miami’s Bay of Pigs Museum, donated by the man who won it, WWII and Bay of Pigs veteran Manuel Perez-Garcia (who started with the 82nd but fought in the Pacific with the 32nd.). The trophy sits alongside Yamashita’s samurai sword and battle flag—and the three purple hearts, three bronze stars and three silver stars Mr. Perez-Garcia earned in the Pacific.

When Perez Garcia was 51 years old the Quisling Castro brothers in partnership with Soviet proxy Che Guevara? were rapidly converting his native country into a Soviet satrapy. So Manuel volunteered for combat again, in what came to be known as the Bay of Pigs invasion.

At the time, Cuba’s enraged campesinos had risen in arms by the thousands as Castro and Che started stealing their land to build Soviet Kolkhozes, and murdering all who resisted. Alarmed by the savage insurgency, Castro and Che sent a special emissary named Flavio Bravo whimpering to their sugar-daddy Khruschev. “We are on a crusade against kulaks like you were in 1930,” whimpered this old–line Cuban Communist party member.

In short order, Soviet military “advisors,” still flush from their success against their own campesinos in the Ukrainian Holocaust, were rushed to Cuba.

This anti-Stalinist rebellion 90 miles from U.S. shores and involving ten times the number of rebels, ten times the casualties and lasting twice as long as the puerile skirmish against Batista, found no intrepid U.S. reporters anywhere near Cuba’s hills. What came to be known as The Bay of Pigs invasion was originally planned as a link-up with the Cuban resistance of the time, which was more numerous (per capita) than the French resistance before D-Day.

At the bloody beachhead now known as the Bay of Pigs, Manuel Perez-Garcia gave the Castroites a thrashing as bad as he’d given the Japanese. These Cuban freedom-fighters battled savagely against a Soviet-trained and led force 10 times theirs’ size, inflicting casualties of 20-to-1. “They fought magnificently—and they were NOT defeated!” stressed their trainer Marine Col. Jack Hawkins, a multi-decorated veteran of Bataan, Iwo Jima? and Inchon. “They simply ran out of ammunition after being abandoned by their sponsor the U.S. Government.”

“Wimps!” sneers Michael Moore about Bay of Pigs veterans in his book “Downsize This.” “Ex-Cubans with a yellow stripe down their backs– and crybabies too!”

(Important: Mr Manuel Perez-Garcia passed away last month at the age of 102. A ceremony in his honor is being held today at Miami’s Bay of Pigs Museum.)

“Divisions exist even within the group known as the “historic exiles.” These divisions are defined primarily by the educational levels and levels of prosperity attained by the sectors. The best educated and more prosperous among them (like me) are more prone to use reason and rationality to look for pragmatic and effective solutions.” (to the Cuba problem.)

“WAIT?! Ya mean our new sheriff AIN’T Cuban?”…SORRY! Let him go…

Imagine the uproar from the MSM/Democratic axis upon discovering a Tea-Party placard that celebrates the mass-expulsion of Hispanic U.S. citizens from U.S. shores. (Heck, one that celebrated the expulsion of illegals would detonate their hair-trigger charge of ‘RACISM!”) Well, back in August 2007 a mass-expulsion of U.S. citizens of Hispanic heritage was in fact celebrated with a cartoon by the MSM/Democrat’s very flagship, The Washington Post. This hyper-sensitive guardian of liberal sensibilities, this vigilante, prosecutor, and judge for anything printed, spoken, or whispered that could conceivably imply a derogatory quality to any conceivable ethnic group ran this cartoon. Please study it carefully.

Anniv. of Missile Crisis “Solution.”

fidel-raul

Castro’s regime’s was granted new status. Let’s call it MAP, or Mutually-Assured-Protection. Cuban freedom-fighters working from South Florida were suddenly rounded up for “violating U.S. Neutrality laws.” Some of these bewildered men were jailed, others “quarantined,” prevented from leaving Dade County. The Coast Guard in Florida got 12 new boats and seven new planes to make sure Castro remained unmolested, that not a hair on his chiny chin-chin was harmed by the hot-headed exiles. When some moved the bases of the liberation fight to the Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Costa Rica, the adamantly “non-interventionist” Camelot liberals suggested (strongly) to these governments that the Cuban freedom-fighters be booted out.

JFK’s Missile crisis “solution” also pledged that he immediately pull the rug out from under Cuba’s in-house freedom fighters. Raul Castro himself admitted that at the time of the Missile Crisis his troops and their Soviet advisors were up against 179 different “bands of bandits” as he labeled the thousands of Cuban anti-Communist rebels then battling savagely and virtually alone in Cuba’s countryside, with small arms shipments from their compatriots in south Florida as their only lifeline.

“Gaddafi, you poor, stupid sap,” Castro must be snickering.

Think about it: here was the U.S. Coast Guard and Border Patrol working ’round the clock arresting Hispanics in the U.S. who were desperate to return to their native country.

It’s a tribute to the power of Castroite mythology that, even with all this information a matter of public record for almost half a century the academic/media mantra (gloat, actually) still has Castro, “defying ten U.S. Presidents!” Instead he’s been protected by them.

Target: Marco Rubio

Tourism ad from 1950's
Tourism ad from 1950's
And vice versa

The back and forth of Cubans between the U.S. and pre-Stalinist Cuba, for both business and pleasure, was common and considered unremarkable at the time. Same for the back and forth of Americans themselves. Think Ernest Hemingway. In 1953 more Cubans vacationed in the U.S. than Americans in Cuba.

And why not? “One feature of the Cuban social structure is a large middle class,” documented a report by the UN’s International Labor Organization in 1957. Both this writer’s maternal grandparents were born in Florida of Cuban parents here legally for a few years. But their parents returned with their infant children to Cuba, where all spent the rest of their lives–until Castro’s Stalinism made their 1962 stay in the U.S. permanent.

So imagine: these Hispanic parents voluntarily vacated the U.S. with their invaluable “anchor babies!” And my grandparent’s case was hardly exceptional among pre-Castro Cubans. The cultural, ethnic and business ties between former Spanish colony Florida and former Spanish colony Cuba made such things commonplace. Even as Spain’ “crown” colony, in the 19th century Cuba did more business with the U.S. than with Spain.

The notion of people with Spanish surnames departing the U.S. for their native countries smiling and accompanied by their families instead of glowering and accompanied by The Border Patrol or Sherriff Arapio just doesn’t register in today’s America. But it was routine throughout the 20th Century for Cubans. In the 1950’s when Cubans were perfectly free to emigrate with all their property, family, etc. and U.S. visas were issued to them for the asking only around 25,000 Cubans lived permanently in the U.S. About the same number of Americans lived in Cuba.

But The Godfather II shows none of this, you see. Their exclusive educational source on pre-Castro Cuba omits it–so liberals remain (willfully) oblivious. Sounds flippant? Well, here’s Chris Matthews from this very Sunday, while hosting the author of the WaPo hit-piece “I mean everybody who saw Godfather II knows what it was like when Castro took over!”

Right after hailing Francis Ford Coppola and Mario Puzo as his primary historians on Cuba, Matthews gushed that his guest Manuel Franzi-Roig should win a Pulitzer Prize for his Rubio hit-piece.

New York Times runs Op-Ed celebrating Libyan dictator’s death and celebrating the celebrators

“Yes! Party on, Libyans! We join in your celebration!” (MSM)

There’s a party going on right here,
a celebration to last throughout the years.
So bring your good times and your laughter
too

we’re gonna celebrate your party with you !

“many people stood chanting “Allahu Akbar,” and spraying the cars with orange blossom water, a custom traditionally reserved for weddings. One of the young men shouted as he showered us: “A new life! A new life!”


But upon the imminent likelihood of a Cuban dictator’s death, this same New York Times had commissioned an article
from National Book Award winner Carlos Eire to DENOUNCE and RIDICULE those who celebrated the dictator’s death. Needless to remind, Prof. Carlos Eire rejected the deal–responding much like Moe Green responded to Mikey Corleone.

“I was asked to pass judgement on those fellow countrymen down in Little Havana who were celebrating Fidel’s demise by dancing in the streets.”

“I will strive to analyze why it is that some people can hate the Machiavellian ruler with a passion and dance in the streets when illness befalls him, while others look down upon the celebrants as ungrateful, selfish, insensitive oafs.” replied Professor Eire.

As I expected, a terse, but vaguely worded rejection quickly followed: “we’re afraid that this approach is not quite right,” said the Times.

(Video) Gaddafi captured alive–then apparently “shot while trying to escape.”

“Now you don’t talk so loud…now you don’t seem so proud…”

hideous video here: Gadaffi captured

As they say:….”What goes around….” And before we get too uppity with these “ragheads”, recall that identical things happened in Cuba after the fall of both Machado and Batista,in France and Italy after the fall of the Vichy and Fascist regimes, and all over Eastern Europe upon its “liberation” in 1945.

(The entire MSM–including the New York Times–now refer to Gaddafi as “dictator”? And none express any sniffishness at the celebrations greeting his death….None of those upturned noses at those insufferable people prepared “to dance on a foreign Presidents’s grave”–that I seem to recall so well from a few years ago.)

Unreal

(P.S. all the above and yet: Gadaffi provided free healthcare and education to all Libyans)
