Castro's "One Man Show"
By José Reyes 2/8/2006
Welcome to Castro's
"One Man Show",
the longest running show on Earth, 47 years. This show is an exhibit of
cruelty and cowardliness from a futile leader who has converted Cuba into a total
inhumane disgrace. There he is pointing his senile finger around and shaking his head,
sluggishly up and down, like he was the victim, again. Oh yes, leading about one million
dumbfounded, uncomfortable, so-called protesters to the perimeter of the US
Diplomatic Building. These so-called demonstrators, of course, have been
rewarded and accommodated with food and returnable t-shirts for their
appearance on the day/night protest. It seems to me that he is always surrounded
by the same people accompanying him, his loyal body
armor of military police with their families. All this mayhem is for a ticket-tape sign located and running
across the 5th floor of the "freedom" Building in
Havana, Cuba. Castro since then has taken swift steps by organizing a round-the-clock construction project
of building a "Wall" of flagpoles pressed closed together to block the view of the
building. Fidel is now
beginning to draw closer to the end of his show and now has begun to
construct a self-inflicting, self-defeating wall around his lonesome self. He is
demonstrating to the world that he is losing his grip of tortured Cuba and that no one really
cares anymore for his phony antics. This
is very unfortunate for him because
the Cuban people are not interested in his conniving ideals anymore and his
untrustworthy promises. Castro has actually begun to build an island around
himself now and the island is Cuba. With
all of these televised staged events, the media has more camera access to the
"Real" Cuba, we need more media coverage of Castro's One Man Shows.

The
electronic sign started flashing messages across the building on January 16,
Martin Luther King Jr's birthday. The first message that scrolled across was
"I have a dream, that one day this nation will rise up". Martin
Luther King's Speech.
As Castro was talking all his rhetoric, there were quotes from Lech Wallesa
scrolling across the building also, you see, its "Déjà Vu" again,
for the formidable Mr. Wallesa who had a live videoconference with Cuban
dissidents arranged by the top U.S. diplomat in Cuba,
Michael Parmly from his home in Cuba. This was 5 days before the U.S. Interests
Section set up the ticker itself.
There were famous quotes from Lincoln also, not to mention news from around the
world, real news.
This overreaction by
Castro for a small projected line of red letters on a black background across a
building should be no cause of concern for a
self proclaimed beloved leader. The fear
here is the
actual words that are running across the ticker that really disturbs him, the
"truth" that scrolls across, that frightens him. The words of freedom
that no individual in Cuba can freely express. I see Castro taking a big chance
here, trying to take advantage of the United States in times where many countries are
voicing contrary and negative opinions
against American foreign policy. This misleading scheme to show the world how
concern he is about his people is self-proving the whole idea of the ticker itself,
"freedom of speech" and this is what Castro is exhibiting with the
protest. Castro's obsession to prevent the Cuban people to see any hope of
change for the nation is very evident here and the whole world is watching.
Fidel cannot and will never escape from the inhumane acts that he has afflicted on Cuba and its inhabitants for the last "47 years". With the building a wall of flags around himself, a sign of surrender, a sign of defeat, a sign of reckless abundant is stranded here in the open. Now, maybe the ill informed skeptics of the world who never had the interest, the knowledge or education, the obligation or the opportunity to read historical accounts about or the bad chance to experience Communism and Dictatorship ruled governments first hand, are going to realize that "Human Rights" is much more important than politics itself and that a dictatorship and communism always leads to hardship. Read about Lenon, Stalin, Hitler, Somoza, Idi Amin, Sadam, Kim Jong II, Prince Abdullah, Robert Mugabe, Teodoro Obiang Nguema, Omar Al-Bashir, the Duvaliers, King Mswati III and of course Fidel Castro and see how many innocent people died during their reigns or are still dying at the present time.
So for what reason then is Castro so determine to tear up a parking lot and place a cluster of flagpoles to obstruct the view of a so called meaningless imperialistic message. Castro is practicing freedom here, freedom to express his feelings and freedom to lead a protest of 1 million people. So let's hear it from the other "12 MILLION" Cuban citizens. Let them speak their minds, let them organize their own protest and state their own opinions, instead of being subjected to their homes like slaves, like prisoners, during this fiasco. Fidel has been representing Cuba for the last 47 years only by brute force and has not established anything, only misery and pain. It's a "One-Man Show" we have here and it's a flop. Castro has been burning all the books that were written about democracy so then Cuban people would not learn the truth. While he burns these books, he is teaching the youth about Marx and Lenon and for the last 47 years. Communism is just a dream and it doesn't work. Communism is an excuse to brainwash an individual and deprive them from their freedom so they could be controlled like animals.
So this is the end result, a wall of 138 black flags with a lone white star. These flags are suppose to signify 138 people who Castro claims, were murdered by Americans. How many innocent Cuban citizens has Castro unlawfully placed in front of a firing squad, just for trying to express themselves? Many of these "Murders" were shown on "TV" shortly after he took over Cuba in 1959 and intentionally, so everyone could see. If that's not terrorism then what is?
