[NYTr] Rabid Gusano Bashes Bush for US-Cuba "Pact of Silence" Date: Sun, 9 Sep 2007 11:56:09 -0500 (CDT) Via NY Transfer News Collective * All the News that Doesn't Fit Miami Disinfotainment: [This weird column was published by MeriNews, apparently in India, and referenced in the Cuban Nation on Friday, Sep 7, 2007. The author appears to be a paranoid Miami gusano who's gone off his anti-psychotic meds. Maybe he's part of the Mariel deserter flotsam and jetsam washed up on Miami's shores, many of whom were ex-cons or mentally ill. Hey, they and Miami deserve each other. Fidel flushed, and the US got them. This article rehashes ancient grievances from the days of the Revolution into the 1960s (wildly exaggerated tales of "concentration camps," -- i.e., the discredited and long-abandoned UMAPs, etc.). Then the author cuts to George W, Bush permitting disadvantaged US medical students to get medical degrees, for free, at ELAM, Cuba's Latin American School of Medicine (along with hundreds of other foreigners studying there). He than accuses Bush, the dreadful Diaz-Balart brothers, and the Cuban Government of somehow being in cahoots -- a "pact of silence between the Cuban and US governing elites." This dude is really out there -- totally off his rocker. The Cuban Revolution itself is all a conspiracy between the US and the USSR, folks. And they're ALL in on it: Bush, the Diaz-Balarts, Castro's counterrevolutionary daughter, everyone. And of course, they're out to get him, the nutso writer of this crazy stuff. What this guy says about US graduates in medicine is completely untrue -- EVERY graduate of a foreign medical school has to go through an internship and residency in the US when they immigrate or return, and they usually need to pass the FMG exam (for Foreign Medical School Graduates). In other countries, as well, graduates of the Cuban program need to find internships at hospitals that recognize the Cuban degree. Usually we don't bother reproducing comments, but there are two appended to this particular piece of wild-eyed Cuba-bashing that we're adding below: one reader's brief comment and more endless ravings in reply by the lunatic disinfo artist author of this piece. We've commented in a couple of places. -NY Transfer] MeriNews - Sep 6, 2007 http://www.merinews.com/catFull.jsp?articleID=126225 Pact of Silence between USA and Cuba by Roberto Carlos Alvarez-galloso A pact of silence exists between the governing elites of Cuba and USA. A law approved by Bush in 2001 allows people to study medicine in Cuba and practise as if they were US graduates, without examinations and hospital training, courtesy the pact. I ONCE TOOK the liberty of calling the office of Congressman Diaz-Balart (nephew of Fidel Castro and Republican Congressman) to enquire about the possibility that the Diaz-Balart family has used its influence on the employment of Alina Fer-nandez-Revuelta (Castrobs daughter) as a volunteer in a Veterans Hospital in Miami, Florida. The Secretary (at Diaz-Balartbs Office) tersely stated: "I am sorry I cannot reply to that question, goodbye" and hung the phone. This is one of the examples of the pact of silence obtaining between the governing elites of Cuba and the USA. Juanita Castro (Raul and Fidel Castrobs sister) called for clemency. In response, the ideal thing would be reconciliation but both sides would have to admit wrongs and the fact that there is a possible pact of silence between the Republicans, Democrats, and Communists in the American Continent. In 1966, Castro founded a concentration camp called UMAP for those who were not in agreement with Castro. Catholics, Christians, Hindus, Buddhists, Muslims, and Rock Musicians (with their supporters) were placed together in this concentration camp to be "educated on the errors of their ways". One of the famous victims was Father Jaime Ortega (the present Cardinal of La Habana). In 1967, four teenagers between 15 and 17 years of age formed a group called Los Pacificos (The Pacifics) and did a rock concert in a Havana neighbourhood. They recorded nine songs in two hours. Their purpose was to bring peace, love, and harmony. For this, the group was sent to prison and the youngest member of the group, Carlos Davila, was sent to die in Angola during the 1970bs. Luckily, the tape was rescued and was released as a CD here in Miami. Unfortunately, the group did not receive a rescue or a mention, secondary to the pact of silence. Another artist called Meme Solis (who started his career in the 1950bs) was sentenced to 20 years in anonymity (1969) for his desire to leave Cuba and for writing "degenerate music". He was set free in 1989 after a little help from Felipe Gonzalez (Socialist Prime Minister of Spain, 1982-1996). I would also like to expose a law approved by Bush in 2001. This law allows people to study medicine in Cuba and practise as if they were US graduates, without examinations and hospital training programmes. This has been a slap in the face of international medical graduates (including those born in USA) and US medical graduates who have to take elaborate medical examinations and undergo medical training. No one mentions it because of the pact of silence. Independent of the fact that Castro may have some popularity, I still think that the reason why Cuba has not moved toward democracy is that in Cuba, the only propaganda al-lowed has been Castro. In Miami, Florida, many talked about democracy in Cuba and in reality have made deals with Castro. Even the US politicians have made deals and Castrobs next door neighbour is a Representative of the US interest section in Cuba. We should also remember that Washington collaborated with the Castros in destroying a ship leaving Cuba (1994) and shooting down a plane (1996). For further information about Cuba, I talked with an individual who was an employee of the US embassy in Cuba and was present at the time (1958-959). This has also been corroborated by declassified documents. Here is the story of this individual: December 31, 1958 Batista receives a call from the US embassy. Eisenhower sent a message to Batista via the US embassy that it was time for him to go and that Castro must be installed. Batista leaves. When news of Batistabs departure spreads through La Habana, the Congress designates a Provisional President (who according to the 1940 Constitution, is the President of the Congress). Eisenhower via the US Embassy telephones the President of Congress that, "Castro and his people must be installed as Head of Cuba". January 1, 1959 The Cuban Congress is forced to accept Castro. Batista left for the Dominican Republic (where, according to declassified documents of the Trujillo Years in the DR, he was humiliated, briefly imprisoned and then expelled to Spain). In other conversations, a former Cuban politician (whom I interviewed on condition of anonymity), stated that in 1957, a group of Cuban politicians offered Batista a way out via elections. These politicians presented as their candidate an individual not affected by the internal conflicts of Cuban politics, called Carlos Marquez Sterling. (This was the same Carlos Marquez Sterling who condemned Batistabs 1952 coup and predicted that with the coup, Cuba would go from bad to worse). The response of Batista and Eisenhower to Sterling was "No". These stories have also been told as an example of this pact of silence. It is a story that has been repeating itself in Zimbabwe, Venezuela, and the USA. The same way that Communism must be phased out in Cuba, Zimbabwe, and Venezuela, Republicans and Democrats must be phased out by peaceful means in America. *** ONE COMMENT TO THE ABOVE RAVINGS AND A RAVING REPLY: The Cuban diaspora loves to write science fiction. They know well US American ignorance about Cuba, and enjoy writing misinformation. Uncle Sam does not allow ELAM graduates to practice medicine until they have passed domestic examination. Miami has had always pirated Cuban talent. Be it music, movies, trademarks, etc. This, of course, with full assistance from Uncle Sam. Batista, and his followers, got it the easy way; they deserved nothing better than a shot in the back. --barba blanca: 06 September 2007 ** For Barba Blanca and the people of India especially Merinews: 1. This is not misinformation, this is not science fiction, this is the truth. 2. It took me time to gather this information. [Well, gee... that proves it's all true, I guess.-NYTr] 3. Miami did not have to pirate talent since there was talent in Miami ignored by the Republicans, Democrats, and Communists. 4. The truth hurts. The response has been the Communists, Republicans, Democrats, and other Political Ideologies have declared war on the writer. Why have they declared war? They know deep down what is happening and that they are making a profit out of the misery of Cubans in both sides of the Florida Straits [as well as Latins in the American Continent]. 5. Castro and Company was a prearrangement between two imperial powers called the USA and the USSR and all three wanted to see the Asians, Africans, and Latins under subjugation. 6. USA have allowed ELAM Students to practice Medicine without an Examination and Training yet others [US Medical Graduates and International Medical Graduates] have to pass through Examination and Training. I work in a Hospital and I have been witness to this. [Sure, he works in a hospital... weaving baskets maybe.-NYTr] 7. If everything was easy as you say, I would have voted either Republican, Democratic and maybe I would have supported their policy. The reality is many had to undergo discrimination, even this US Latin who was born in the USA underwent discrimination. Many had to wash dishes, clean the floors, and do all of the menial work and at the same time study. These Republicans and Democrats then say, vote for me. No way, they did not lift a finger and my response is to expose them as frauds. 8. Assistance from Uncle Sam? That in itself is Science Fiction. We received zero assistance from Uncle Sam. Another reason for telling the truth. 9. Barba Blanca; I hope that the day the Castro and Chavez regime cease to exist, that their masters called the Republicans and Democrats go with them to the cesspool of history. 10. The lesson to be learned is that Republicans, Democrats and Marxism are failures and incompatible with Asians, Latins, and African given the European Origins and Racist Tendency of these three failures. 11. I have just submitted a photo of Fidel Castro's Daughter [Alina Fernandez-Revuelta] wearing a wig and working in a hospital for War Veterans in Florida. This was secondary to the blessing of Mario Diaz Balart, Lincoln Diaz Balart [who are Fidel Castro's Nephews and Alina Fernandez Revuelta's Cousin]. The Diaz Balart Brothers are US Senators representing Florida. [Actually, d00d, they are congressmen, not senators. -NYTr] 12. A little information: Fidel Castro's Son is called Fidel Castro Diaz Balart and is the cousin of the Diaz Balart Brothers in Florida. 13. This is the truth about dynasty and pack of silence between USA and Cuba. 14. Before criticizing, put yourself in the other person's shoe.
