Castronomics?

"No one country can afford to spend more than what they have," he said during a ceremony peppered with praise for his convalescing older brother, Fidel. "To have more, we have to begin by producing more, with a sense of rationality and efficiency."

- Raul Castro

Efficient Communism? Wouldn't that be like an "affectionate rape?"

Information Warriors Wanted

Information Warriors Wanted

Now that we have under 1000 Cubans and our supporters online and blogging, blogtalking, running a Cuba Libre website or involved in other Cuba organizations actively bringing the truth to the world about the genocide in Cuba - that alone is sufficient to overwhelm any compassion for Raul's tyrant regime in the future. However, if the hundreds of thousands of Cuban exiles who own or have access to computers and the Internet would just write one letter per day then email it to targeted commercial special interests - the Cuba regime would collapse overnight. These hundreds of thousands have never been short for complaining about this madness. Should we devise a way to convince Cubans of how effective we ALL could be together online at once - we win!!!

Pick an easy commercial target that really pisses off Cubans. Maybe a cruise line using Cuban slave labor. Flood their email box and cc some newspapers and electronic media at the same time for virtually no extra effort then sit back and reap the blessing of information warfare. We could even compile all the email addresses these new information warriors required to make it a simple frontal attack. My dream is to have one half million Cuban information warriors continuously attacking the junta with truthful information and convenient innuendos.

We're still gonna need more troops though.

First Indictments

Here is a real fine list of the first junta members we will soon indict for crimes against the Cuban people. I got this link from my cousins John and Roberto at Cuba Companioni.

Have fun with your little talk Raul. We have you in our sights...

Toppling The Giant

Toppling The Giant

The way you topple the giant is stay out of his way and avoid direct confrontations. Then search for a weak point of imbalance, like apartheid tourism, and trip him. Now that the giant is beginning to fall one million exiles and our freedom loving slaves imprisoned on the island must all give the giant a push at the same time. He will then fall hard and never rise again...

Tourist Returns With Bedbugs

"I was pretty unimpressed with our stay - like everyone says this place does not do justice to the stellar Iberostar reputation. I was actually glad to leave, but as unimpressed as I was I didn't intend to bother with a review until I discovered that the rash I've had since our stay is BEDBUG bites, I've brought them home with me and now we are looking at a long difficult process to rid ourselves of this horrible little bug."

Subject: Preso de la lancha de Baraguá
Date: Mon, 23 Jul 2007 19:36:45 +0000
En marzo del 2003, fusilaron a tres hombres que trataron de llevarse la lancha de Baraguá, solo por dar el ejemplo según dijo el propio dictador. Quedaron preso dos muchachos condenados a cadena perpetua y 3 mujeres, dos de ellas ya están en libertad. Los dos condenados a cadena perpetua están en celda de castigo, además. La mamá de uno de ellos me fue a ver a la casa, la mamá del otro falleció el año pasado, me dejó estos documentos para que los divulgue.

Gracias.

I will email the documents to anyone who asks.

Castro Meningitis vaccine Swindle

Castro Meningitis Vaccine Swindle

That was eight years ago. No, the reason the vaccine is not available today in the U.S. and Europe is simply that — like so many other Castroite concoctions and proclamations dutifully trumpeted by news agencies who earn Havana bureaus — the vaccine is a farce and its sale a swindle. And, at least in this case, most civilized countries refuse to help propagate the swindle on their citizens.

Does this sound just like today's dengue fever proclamations by the communist Cuban regime? Bactivec my ass!

Help Wanted

Help Wanted

With the Castro regime one catastrophe away from collapse, the Cuban exile population and their friends need to hit the ground running in Cuba. But the truth is we need to get coordinated right now so we do not waste precious time. We want to utilize our limited resources in the most efficient manner possible and eliminate redundant efforts. An Exile Economic Council could go a long way towards getting Cubans who have suffered for so long up and standing on their own two feet. All of the bloggers in this fight are natural resources for this task. Cuban freedom bloggers are already energized, intimately familiar with the situation, in communication with one another as well as Cuba and many other reasons. We have a great deal of expertise and we should be mustering these forces. If each blogger or other friend of Cuban liberty like Vana or Maria and other dedicated human beings would fill a position as a coordinator for a specific responsibility. For example, we all agree that elections are a must do in Cuba and as soon as possible to give the new government legitimacy. We need an election coordinator who will design a PC based voting system which would use a secure Internet site to compile the votes and give the winners. This coordinator, besides designing this honest verifible system, would arrange for exiles who would be traveling to Cuba to bring computers to assure an adequate number of voting stations, registering election judges, procedures for qualifying candidates, etc.

This is but one area for a dedicated patriotic coordinator to tackle. Here is a list of Help Wanted for Cuba Libre Coordinators:

1. Fund Raiser Coordinator
2. Medical Coordinator
3. Building Materials Coordinator
4. Sewer & Water Coordinator
5. Initial Food and Water Aid Coordinator
6. Civil Order Coordinator
7. Transportation Infrastructure Coordinator
8. Legal/Judicial Coordinator
9. Land and Property Restitution/Resolution Coordinator
10. Aid Importation Coordinator
11. Communications Coordinator
12. Press Coordinator
13. Environmental Clean-up Coordinator
14. Economic Policy Coordinator
15. Cuban Employee/Foreign Employer Database Coordinator

I'm sure there are more coordinator positions if we put our heads together. I'd sure like to do the Economic Policy Coordinator position if no one objected. Besides the many papers that I have written on the topic of free market economics, as well as all of my blog entries on the subject, I can easily discuss the topic and debate the issue. Plus I have many contacts to draw upon who are much more enlightened and eloquent on the topic than I. But these positions will either do something active to help the Cuban people immediately, like bring them food and water to keep them alive, or they will compile policy positions for the new Cuban government to consider and vote on. We would be a nuts and bolts think tank dedicated to moving Cuba from a poor, stagnant, communist model for disaster into a vibrant, free market tiger of wealthy, enlightened Cubans. Coordinators could report back on their progress on the various blogs and advertise for workers who will be ready to move when the time comes. Most Cubans are dying for Fidel to die soon. However, are we ready for it? We will only have a finite window of opportunity before Cubans will become disillusioned with everything and sink into populism again. I think the democracy fairy died boys and girls so we'll have to handle this one ourselves.
