Since July 11, 2021, Cuba has been roiled by protests. During that time, also, four popular generals have been found dead. Officially, they were killed by COVID. Unofficially, I suspect they were killed by Cuban intelligence because they were suspected of planning to use the protests to further their political agenda. Read on to find out more.
overthrow that vicious, anti-American regime just 90 miles off the coast of Florida, is at hand. Removing the communist regime of Cuba should be a no-brainer, as it will free an oppressed people and prevent American rivals, like China, Russia, and Iran, from gaining a foothold in Latin America.

The ongoing American effort to destabilize the vile Maduro regime in Venezuela appeared to be a gallant attempt by Washington to hone its own shadow warfare capabilities. If that’s the case, then, the United States needs to go back to the drawing board because our rivals are better at this kind of warfare than we are. Should this situation persist, then, you can expect America’s rivals in Moscow and Beijing (and elsewhere) to continue challenging American power… and to keep achieving their objectives while America fails to accomplish its own goals. Over time, this will lead to a victory for autocracy in the ongoing competition between the world’s autocracies and democracies.
“Washington cannot abandon Latin America. After all, the problems that afflict Latin America will inevitably ripple upward to the United States, causing grave political and economic dislocations. They already are. Imagine what happens if the United States retreats completely from the region and cedes its influence to rivals like China, Russia, and Iran – or Cuba, for that matter.”
“Today, Russia reminds the Left of the loss of their Soviet benefactor. Also, Russia’s abandonment of communism has automatically made it an enemy to the global left. Russia under Putin has reverted to its historical norms, in terms of governing. (This is not necessarily a good thing, because Russia was always a tough nut to crack for the Western powers — though it is still better than the communist system).”
Noted author, David Archibald, writes, “Mr President, be careful what you wish for. Some of those Nordic types might look pleasant enough but they could have communist tendencies and be just as nasty as the people from those other countries you referred to.”
Many in the West have trouble understanding Vladimir Putin. Part of the problem is that Mr. Putin’s background is murky. Yet, I believe that if one wants to have a window into his worldview, one should look to former KGB head and Soviet Premier Yuri Andropov. Both Andropov and Putin are more similar than many realize and that should worry us.
The United States has become consumed with the issue of Illegal Immigration. Yet, from 2007-14, Illegal Immigration into the U.S. was at “net zero.” However, criminality (and potential terrorism) increased from 2011-15. This article assesses the security risks posed to America by allowing its southwestern border to remain open to all.
