50 Years and Counting

I've reproduced below two of the articles which I've written to mark the lustrums of the Cuban Revolution. As I re-typed them after 20 years from the yellowed clippings, I was finishing the sentences from memory although I had not read the articles in as many years. It is not because I have a prodigious memory, because I don't anymore; but because the facts and my responses to them have not changed in decades.

Nothing is more constant and immutable than barbarism if left unopposed. Castroism, of course, has not just been let alone: it has been encouraged, nurtured and flattered since before 1959. The ignoble savages have been transformed into noble savages; the police state into a welfare state; and the victims of Communism into the villains. But even if it had been otherwise and the world had condemned what it still praises, nothing would have changed in Cuba either. To expect the Castro regime to evolve into anything better than itself is like expecting Genghis Khan to turn into Marcus Aurelius.

Fifty years might as well be eternity, and in the life of a man it practically is. Hope springs eternal, too, they say; but, in our case, to no effect, since every year it defrauds us. No prospect, however pernicious to the regime's stability, ever rebounds to our country's favor. Not the fall of the Soviet Union; not Castro's zombie state; not natural or man-made disasters; not the financial collapse of Cuba's Western creditors and enablers. In fact, if we looked at every reason for hope as a reason for despair, we might be more miserable but shall be closer to the truth in every case.

Some believe that Castro made a pact with the devil to secure power. It's as good an explanation as any for something so unnatural and perverse as the Castro regime. Yet such a compact hardly seems necessary since God has made his sympathies amply known over the last 50 years by allowing every human wrong to be inflicted on our people without mercy or surcease. I have remarked before that I believe Cubans to be God's new "Chosen People," chosen for the same reason that the Jews were — to prove how faith can transcend reality, and the suffering of yesterday and today be transformed into the hope of tomorrow. Perhaps, like the Jews, we may also have to wait 2000 years for our national redemption. I am certainly more sure that it will come in 2000 years than in 10, 20 or 30 more, but even if it came that "soon," it will find most of us in the grave.

Once a year, at least, we should stare at the truth even if it blinds us for the rest of the year.

Is everything lost?

Everything was lost a long time ago.

The fact that confronts us today is that it may never be recovered.

  1. Manuel, perhaps you have not yet read Vana's comment, which she delivered for KC. Would you have believed in 1985 that most of the Warsaw Pact nations would be freed of communism by 1990? Do not give up hope, do not despair, fifo was nowhere to be found today and you know very well that Raul is no fifo, the Bolivarrrrrrriano whack job is broke and apparently his days in power are numbered, the FARC are practically finished, Correa's nation has defaulted, Ortega is barely holding on and Evo is almost irrelevant, there are countless Yoani's in Cuba who need our positive support, look up brother, it is always darkest before the dawn, remember to keep on lighting up the darkness.

    Happy 2009 to you and yours Manuel, as well as, to all the commentators and readers of RCAB and their families.

  2. Happy New Year Manuel!! I remember what KC and CB used to say, how Kasstro made a pact with the devil for fifty years in power. Well, the time has finally come! Also, I haven´t been in contact with them like Vana but remember one of their older posts saying how they were prepping for what would happen next. I sincerely believe this year is the year man! ¡Cuba Libre! ¡Feliz 2009 a todos!

  5. Cubans Not Allowed
    The Miami Herald reports here that authorities in Santiago de Cuba banned locals from attending a 50th anniversary of the revolution "celebration" scheduled for today.

    Some sad but telling quotes from locals worth reading (emphasis mine).

    -------------------------
    Robert, the reason for the lack of " regular people in the festivities is only due to security concerns

    They want to protect their leaders at any cost

    There are balconies near the cathedral. I'm sure they were afraid of snipers

    El Parque Cespesdes is a very small area, the square is not as big as it appears in fotos or film

    I lived less than 50 feet from where Raul spoke today

  6. Manuel:

    Your post has sent me to the depths of despair, I need to come to terms with that statement you made, that all was lost a long time ago, I have waited far too long, I have not been back to my beloved island since the day I left it 46 years go, I guess I have to make plans to go regardless of the political situation, for I have to see it at least one more time before I die, otherwise I shall not rest in peace.

  8. Volviendo al tema anterior de porque los santiagueros no pudieron estar en el Parque Cespedes

    Es de suma importancia dejar claro que esa area estuvo por unas horas off limits para el pueblo cubano debido a la gran cantidad de funcionarios politicos en el Ayuntamiento

    La Seguridad del Estado Cubano es paranoica cada vez que tienen que realizar actos al aire libre

    Como vecino del Parque Cespedes puedo asegurar que 1 semana antes de un evento como este todos los edificios aledaños eran " tomados" por la seguridad , inclusive en las azoteas habian hombres on plainclothes y todos los vecinos , entrevistados , documentados y advertidos que no podian asomarse a las ventanas durante el speech

  10. El area del Parque Cespedes hasta la catedral es muy pequeña, es decir no es como la Plaza de la revolucion donde cabe 1 millon de personas

    Por esta y otras razones de seguridad es que no hubo multitud de cubanos " regulares" en el acto

  12. Después que en la restringida conmemoración del cincuenta aniversario del triunfo de la "roboilusión", no hiciera su aparición, "el enfermo nacional" o "el fantasma escribidor" como se califica ahora al ente--que no se sabe si está vivo o muerto--¿habrá todavía algún idiota en el mundo, que siga sosteniendo el mito de que Fidel Castro está "muy bien de salud, en pleno uso de sus facultades mentales y con las riendas del poder en sus manos"?

    ¡Por Dios! si el hombre estuviera medianamente cuerdo y se pudiera sostener aunque fuera 10 minutos en pie, lo hubieran presentado hoy, aunque sólo hubiera sido en una breve alocución de tres minutos.

    Después de hoy, quien siga agitando el fantasma del difunto o en el mejor de los casos, vivo, pero enajenado "enfermo nacional", para justificar la inmovilidad de la gerontrocracia que oprime a Cuba, sólo puede ser catalogado de idiota o lo que es peor, de agente de la tiranía.

    Llama también poderosamente la atención, que a pesar de la enorme importancia que para la jerarquía opresora reviste este aniversario de medio siglo de poder, no se atrevieron a convocar a una de sus montruosas concentraciones, sino que lo limitaron a una fiesta, que se podía calificar casi de privada, pues sólo se permitió la presencia de unos bien escogidos 3,000 santiagueros, en representación de todos los cubanos, que se reunieron frente al antiguo Ayuntamiento de Santiago, para recordar la entrada triunfal del Ejército Rebelde. ¿A que le temen?

  13. Vana:

    Visiting Cuba today would be like making a trip to the catacombs and finding them inhabited by living men. It helps to have tunnel vision, or to go on an official tour, which is the same thing: the cathedral, a handful of restored buildings and the beach, shielded as much as possible from human contact and looking not straight ahead but up at the Cuban sky, disregarding as much as possible what lies beneath it. Perhaps then one could emotionally survive the experience, that is, if one can keep truth at bay.

    I don't recommend such a trip for you, my friend, because I know that you would not be able to isolate yourself from the suffering of our people, and your exposure to it at first-hand would be the spiritual equivalent of losing your mother ten times.

  14. angel:

    I wish it were possible to squeeze one last ounce of hope from the last 50 years; but when even the dead will not die, what remains there for us to hope for?

    External factors impacting on Cuba? These in the past have always benefited Castro or left him untouched.

    The solution coming from Cuba itself? That hope is the most futile of all. An unarmed people cannot effect its own liberation: they can only create martyrs and we have never had any shortage of those.

    ReplyDelete
  16. MAT,
    I have to agree with Angel this time. We may be nearer to freedom than we think. Fifo is on his last legs and I think without him Raul cannot hold on to power forever. Castro II himself is 77 years old and has even though he may look healthy outside, he has strongly abused alcohol during his lifetime and this fact alone might take its toll on him sooner than we think.
    And then what, who will carry on? I am not scholar of the Revolution, but I do not see anyone with eneough so called charisma or appeal in the horizon who could hold the regime together like those two. I do not share your pessimism in this instance because I think once Fidel is dead and out of the picture, the begining of the end is very near.
    Happy New Year 2009.

    from an article about Yoani Sanchez here is a quote from her:

    "Our society is like one of those rotten old buildings in Old Havana," she says. "At some point, someone will pull out a nail, at the whole thing will come tumbling down."

    She is in Cuba and seems to be in touch with the pulse of the people there. Maybe there is something of truth in her words.

  21. Manuel:

    I'm very much aware that traveling to Cuba today would be like mourning her in a cemetery, for that is what our island has become, I would of course not go on a pleasure trip, but to cry my heart out, maybe, just maybe I would be healed of this terrible need to see her, smell her, touch her one last time.

    I believe your wait has been as long as mine, maybe longer, the longing sometimes is unbearable for me, I try to find a little bit of hope in the things I read, hoping the end comes before I die, but I see I'm only making castles in the air, that realization hit me pretty hard yesterday with your hopless post, for you see I consider you a wise man I believe you when you say it was all lost a long time ago.

    The shoes were found on the expressway today, jamming up traffic. A front-end loader had to clean them up and the police are looking for a charity to take them. They don't know where they came from and there were no signs of a crash.

    Gee, here in PA we just have live chickens all over the road.

The fact that the BBC is even "investigating/debating/inquiring as to whether or not" 50 years of "Revolution" has been good for the Cuban people is enough to make one puke. Abajo Fidel!

  63. The objective of exposing Fantomas' true identity and his goals as an instrument of Castro's DGI has been taken a step further, for some time Fantomas has been able to deceive the uninformed and the gullible in the Cuban themed blogosphere, one of the last remnants of his work has been Tomas Estrada Palma and his Sundays Blog Talk Radio program cohost Don Dominguez, both of whom have been played by Fantomas because of their lack of knowledge of and about Cubans, their innocent gullibility has been easy target for Fantomas DGI mission of disruption of the Cuban and Cuban-American bloggers; a message to Mr. Estrada Palma was left this morning in the form of a comment at his blog, wherein some of the information that has been acquired about Fantomas' true identity and goals were exposed, this is stated here at RCAB for the record.

    SANTIAGO DE CUBA: Cubans will be permitted to build their own homes and do so using private funds, President Raul Castro announced on Sunday, in the latest reforms to back off the hardline communism of the past five decades.

    Home construction in Cuba primarily has been left to the government, but demand has outstripped supply and a dire lack of housing has greatly frustrated the island's 11 million inhabitants.

    Raul Castro, 77, who took over the reins of power from his older brother Fidel Castro last February, said the policy change would allow the quick construction of hundreds of thousands of new dwellings.

    Cubans will be given clear guidelines about the dimensions of a proposed new dwelling, Castro explained on a local television program.

    They will be told "OK, here you can build. I've given you this amount of space, that amount of room for a street, and that amount for a sidewalk. Now build your little home with whatever you can," the former defense minister said.

    His remarks were made as he visited the newly built "La Risuena" neighborhood, a settlement of Venezuela-built homes erected with the help of oil money that has lessened, but not erased, the housing deficit.

    The announcement comes just days after Cuba's celebration of the 50-year anniversary of its 1959 Revolution. Former leader Fidel Castro was a no-show at the celebrations.

    Havana has succeeded in building only about half its annual goal of 100,000 new homes per year, and the dearth of dwellings worsened last year after Cuba was struck in succession by three hurricanes that leveled around a half million homes.

    Over the past year, reforms initiated by the younger Castro brother have included putting vacant farmland in private hands, increasing farmers' pay, and allowing private contractors such as taxi drivers back into Cuba's transport sector.

    Raul Castro also has allowed Cubans to buy computers, own mobile telephones, rent cars and spend nights in hotels previously accessible only to foreigners -- provided they can afford such luxuries on the meager average pay, equivalent to about 17 dollars per month.

    Manuel already knew, what i am now just realizing. I just completed my 2nd interview with Obama's transition team. And all i can say is, "God help the republican Cuban-American in America."

    My thoughts, and prayers are with the republican Cuban-American. As you will need each and every one of them.

    Acuerdense de leer lo que este señor ha escrito y si tienen tiempo, vean algunos de los vidéos que aparecen en la parte de arriba en el panél a la derecha.

    Aqui tienen una nota indicatória de lo que van a oír, José Martí es llamado Jose Marty, como el Marty McFly de la serie cinemática Back to the Future, vayan ayi, lean, escúchen y vean. Este es el co-anfitrión de Estrada Palma en el programa que tienen en Blog Talk Radio los domingos por la noche, llamádo Cuba Exposed, el programa de antes de ayér debería ser tituládo "Tom & Don - A Conversation about Everything Trivial Under the Sun and Nothing About Cuba" en lugar de Cuba Exposed. Como siempre, Fantomas se encuentra como suscritór de este tipo de cubanos y sus programas desastrosos, Fantomas sigue cumpliendo la misión que le ha sido encargada por el DGI y el G2.

  175. Para Garzon....

    Pero la retórica no huele a ajo, aunque se pinta para hacer el ajo. No me explico cómo todavía esta gente se atreve a decir que la revolución es para los humildes; la revolución la hicieron los humildes y también los no tan pobres para que al final se sentara en la poltrona del Poder una nueva clase", dijo a CUBAENCUENTRO.com un intelectual santiaguero de 67 años, que fue colaborador de Frank País, señalando con un dedo acusador hacia las sillas donde, minutos antes, estuvo sentado el selecto auditorio del general.

    "Dígame, ¿Batista o Tabernilla no lo hubieran hecho igual?". En el borde delantero del Parque Céspedes, junto a la tribuna donde habló el gobernante, un "grupo de apoyo" retiraba sillas acolchadas, quitándoles, antes de plegarlas, las fundas inmaculadamente blancas donde acomodaron sus espaldas los invitados especiales, que ya abordaban ómnibus de turismo y automóviles flamantes, obscenos en la pobreza de las calles de Santiago.

    A las 08:15 de la noche, estaba el canciller venezolano, Nicolás Maduro, rodando con su comitiva en un automóvil azul, acercándose a la Plaza de Marte, poco después de afirmar en el Parque Céspedes que el socialismo del siglo XXI, que se pretende construir en varios países latinoamericanos, se nutre de la revolución cubana, cuando el veterano luchador, apegado a su intuición de conspirador, tomó al corresponsal por un brazo. Mientras, en una esquina del Hotel Casagranda, en la calle Heredia, próximo al centro de prensa, un grupo de periodistas extranjeros hacían su cosecha: entrevistaba a un octogenario pequeño, frágil, de traje y corbata, con dos medallas en el pecho, tocado con un sombrero de fieltro, diminuto como su dueño. Posaba el anciano para los fotógrafos cuando le escuchamos decir: "Sí, combatí con Raúl en el II Frente Frank País".

    "Frank… Si Frank y Josue País hubieran sobrevivido hoy, Santiago de Cuba sí estaría de fiesta", dijo intelectual santiaguero, que pidió permanecer en el anonimato.

    ¿Y acaso no lo está?

    "Compruébelo usted mismo", sugirió y advirtió antes de despedirse: "Pero cuídese, como a nuestro amigo Francisco también conocí en el Colegio Dolores a La Pulga y a Papito Serguera, y si a usted lo cogen con una pluma y un bloc de notas, haciendo un reportaje de la otra cara de esta moneda, es como si en 1958 la policía de Batista hubiera cogido a uno de nosotros, los de Acción y Sabotaje, con una bomba de dinamita".

    En Santiago de Cuba se celebraron sin entusiasmo los 50 años del fin de una dictadura, como una escena de teatro en la que es necesario mostrar alegría, pero los actores no han aprendido a reír con espontaneidad.

    Los santiagueros que pasados por un tamiz participaron en la celebración del 50 aniversario de la caída de Fulgencio Batista, retornaron del Parque Céspedes como si lo hicieran de un velorio, conversando entre ellos, o en silencio, con flores y, a guisa de Biblias, con los folletos que les obsequiaron.

    Concluida la conmemoración frente al antiguo Ayuntamiento, llamaba la atención que eran los extranjeros, y no los cubanos, los que se mostraban más entusiasmados en el Parque Céspedes, con sus MP4, sus ordenadores portátiles, sus teléfonos móviles de última generación, y sus cámaras digitales para fotografiarse frente a las imágenes del Fidel Castro guerrillero.

    En Dolores, en la Plaza de Marte, otro tipo de turistas celebraba la primera noche del año 2009 en Santiago de Cuba, sentados en los bancos, con sus "novias" cubanas.

    En Garzón y Cañedo, a sólo unas cuadras de la tribuna donde el general habló de una revolución de los humildes y para los humildes, el mercado agropecuario estatal celebraba la fecha con las cestas vacías.

    Desde Enramada, y pasando junto al Cuartel Moncada, el Palacio de Justicia y el Hospital Civil, los tres objetivos que pretendía tomar Fidel Castro el 26 de julio de 1953, y hasta la Plaza Antonio Maceo, junto a la Terminal de Ómnibus Interprovinciales, era imposible hacerse con un tentempié; ni una pizza, ni un refresco, ni un poco de agua en moneda nacional.

    Un pasajero que viajaba en un autobús local el día del acto se refirió a la apatía generalizada por la celebración de la fecha en Santiago de Cuba.

    "El ómnibus venía repleto, y por el equipo de audio estaban amplificando música romántica, de la década prodigiosa, Julio Iglesias y todo eso, pero nadie pidió que pusieran tal o cuál discurso porque a esa hora fulano o mengano estaba hablando. Llegamos a Santiago al filo de las ocho, pero tampoco nadie mencionó que allí se hubiera estado celebrando nada importante, sino todo lo contrario, al partir de Puerto Padre alguien dijo: 'lleven comida, porque en Santiago hay poco que comer'".

    Raúl Castro dijo este primero de enero que "corresponde a la dirección histórica de la revolución preparar a las nuevas generaciones para asumir la responsabilidad de continuar adelante con el proceso revolucionario", y recordó a los dirigentes del mañana la exigencia de no apartarse de los obreros, campesinos y el resto del pueblo.

    Pero al recorrer las calles de Santiago, poco después de escuchar las palabras del general; al visitar pasada la medianoche el cuerpo de guardia del Hospital Provincial Saturnino Lora, donde desde los médicos hasta los enfermos no cuentan con más agua para beber que la del grifo de un lavamanos; al recorrer con la vista las miles de hectáreas de arrozales en la llanura de Bayamo, transformadas en terrenos baldíos; al apreciar la incongruencia entre la cantidad y la calidad de los tractores en el campo cubano con respecto a los automóviles de los dirigentes en las ciudades; es que puede comprenderse cuán apartada se encuentra la clase dirigente de los obreros y campesinos, y cuánto hay de retórica no en uno, sino en todos los discursos de los dirigentes.

    Nah, Obama is about to pour billions of stimulus money into Democratic hands throughout America. He is creating 600,000 new federal gov jobs, exclusively for Democrats. As was told to me in my 2nd interview. Washington D.C. will be made up of entirely of Obama brown shirts. All the way down to the bartender who pours drinks for you at any D.C. bar.

    I am not getting the coveted position that i had desired. But by this time next month, i will be living in Virgina, and working from D.C. Which is much better then my position in life under Bush.
