“Che Guevara’s daughter, Aleida, will be in Britain next month for a hoopla titled Cuba50, which is billed as “the biggest European celebration in this 50th anniversary year.” In London’s expansive Barbican Centre, Britain will throw the continent’s biggest party commemorating 50 years of Castro’s Stalinist regime, which jailed political prisoners at a higher rate than Stalin’s, murdered political prisoners at a higher rate than pre-war Hitler’s, and came closest of anyone to plunging the world into nuclear war.
In the process of “liberating” Cuba, the regime to be honored in London’s most prestigious convention center created refugees at a higher rate than the Waffen SS and Gestapo created while conquering and subjugating France.
Unreal.

The British are confused when it comes to Cuba [but then again, who isn’t?]. To them, Cuba was no different than their former Caribbean possessions: example Jamaica. If you see that horrible British-made movie from the late 70’s, Cuba, you can tell just how confused they are. Not only does pre-59 Cuba look like one vast wretchedly poor slum, but it was filmed in some English-speaking Caribbean country. You can hear all of the black extras speaking with Jamaican-style accents.
If they think that Cuba was that way, of course they are going to think that what Castro did for Cuba was wonderful.
It’s all so sad. It’s a combination of:
-Castro’s propaganda machinery.
-The mainstream medias complicity with Castro and their incompetence in digging for the truth which is not that hard to get at.
-Our inability [because we lack the institutions to do so] to effectively get our truths out.
Don’t forget that communism was invented in Britain. Exchange of personal freedom for cradle to grave “security” has a great deal of support there.
