In Memory of Gloria Laura Pollan-Leader of the Ladies in White/Las Damas de Blanco

On Friday October 14, 2011, I had just arrived to a small get together my cousin Jessica was having at her home.   I received the news via cell phone that Laura Pollan, leader of the ladies in white had passed away of a heart attack in Cuba.   I listened in silence, and thought of the poem by Jose Marti, “La Rosa Blanca”.  

I was not happy with the news, yet it is what I expected to happen to her because it is the pattern of anyone that Stands Up against Castro the Goliath, they end up murdered by the hand of the Castro regime.

Laura was hospitalized for some form of respiratory virus, plus all the beatings she has taken from the Castro bullies who go around beating Women.  All these women do is walk every Sunday to church with a flower in honor of their husbands, brothers, friends, who are in the Castro jails just for expressing their right as a Citizen of Cuba and their desire to be Free.  For this they are beaten and thrown in jail!

In my opinion it is time to take a real aggressive stand and NOT continue to stand idle and our mouths to be full of political rhetoric. 

It is time for all Cubans to Unite, for this is what the regime and many others have not wanted us to do.  As long as it is to fight for the Freedom of our Homeland, Cuba.  Let's learn from the mistakes of the past, live in the present, to make the future full of Light, Love and Freedom for the people in Cuba. 

For this 4th Generation of Cuban Citizens have NO clue of what it is to live in the Cuba of our Parents and Grandparents and those before them...They only know Castor's Cuba.  Plus we must realize that the Cuba BC is long gone and we must work for a New & Better Cuban Democracy.  THE AC, CUBA!

 I like to share this quote from Mario Jimenez, Children of the 2506 Brigade

“America owes us nothing and yet she has given us everything...I have one more favor to ask Help us free our homeland. My father fought in The Bay the Pigs and I am ready to fight anywhere anytime to free Cuba. Help us or let us do what we must do. Many Cubans have died for this great country from Vietnam to Iraq and Afghanistan. Now we need help to do our most important mission.  To free our brothers, sisters and mothers. We owe it to the brave men who fought and died in the struggle to free Cuba!

I will quote my Father, Lt. Cornel Merob Sosa-Garcia, and named military leader in NY of La Rosa Blanca the first Cuban organization in the USA, founded on January 28, 1959 by Rafael Diaz-Balart.

“The armed forces of Cuba under the Constitution of the Republic of Cuba must protect the homeland from tyranny, monarch and civil unrest.  The military is not there to go to war; the military and police are there to protect citizens under the Law of the homeland.  To have peace and freedom a nation must pay the high price of fighting for its freedom to establish democracy for its Citizens.  However, if the people choose the other side than the military and police must be disciplined enough to stand down and seize fire and turn the Country over to whom the people have chosen.  Nevertheless, in Exile we must continue to fight for our homeland for the present and future generations to live in freedom as Maceo and Marti did. The mistake is the masses are sometimes brain washed by the Rhetoric of men and at times stand by them without even knowing
what they are doing, this appeared to be the case my daughter with our homeland, Cuba.  Instead of holding free elections to elect a new President, the people were blindsided with the Castro Rhetoric and Movement. 

 I leave this all to time and in God’s hands for the truth and justice will be served.”

In my opinion, I think it is time for CUBANS TO MARCH UPON WASHINGTON, DC and Stand Up for Human Rights and Freedom from Tyranny in Cuba.  Enough is Enough March!!!  Basta Ya!!!

God Bless Gloria Laura Pollan, your death as well as others will not be in vain, justice and liberty will prevail. 

We continue to walk towards a Free Cuba in your memory.  Godspeed to a Free Cuba!!

The USA the most generous Country on the Planet!

It is the Country founded by immigrants seeking religious 'FREEDOM"!

It is the Country that has always opened its doors to ALL immigrants from everywhere around the globe.

It is the Country that in 1959 allowed Political Exiles to find refugee, freedom and NEW opportunities in the United States of America.  Since 1959 Cubans continue to come to AMERICA!  To seek residence and to be US Citizens, to prosper and to continue to give back to the U.S.A.  After all it is the Country that embraced them, since their own native homeland wanted to repress and take away all their human and civil rights.  Besides no one in 1959 had "Due Process" executions by Che Guevara and the Castro's was like a Roman Circus, many applaud this act of violence. 

Here we are in 2011, the Castro's continue with their violent model of govenment with NO due process, continue beating  the Ladies in White, for defending, the human and civil rights of political prisoners.  

The Cultural inter-change which is a JOKE! A one way street exchange and it is NOT fair... Cuba continues deploying into this Country those that seek to destroy  the very meaning of freedom.   Continued disrespect to the laws of the U.S.A. by commiting medicare fraud and much more.
This has to STOP!

The WAR the Castro's have declared is an economic one against the United States of America.

To think their are politicians in Washington, D.C. and else where that allow this non-sense.

A young Congressmen, born in New York of Cuban decent has had the "guts" to to say it like it is.

Hat's off to you David Rivera!

It is time to take a STAND!  Be grateful for America and the freedom it offers everyone.

The Cuban Adjustment Act MUST be adjusted.  Let's take a stroll down memory lane:
The original Cuban Adjustment Act of 1966 allowed Cubans to become permanent residents if they had been present in the United States for at least 2 years. The Immigration and Nationality Act Amendments of 1976 (P.L. 94-571) reduced this time to one year. Caps on immigration do not apply and it is not necessary that the applicant use a family-based or employment-based immigrant visa petition.

Two other immigration rules are also waived. Unlike other immigrants, Cubans are not required to enter the United States at a port-of-entry. Second, being a public charge doesn't make a Cuban ineligible to become a permanent resident.

Bottomline on this act.....Those who have been persecuted in Cuba, or who fear persecution (on the basis of race, religion, nationality, membership in a particular social group, or political opinion), may apply for U.S. resettlement through its in country refugee processing unit at the United States Interests Section in Havana.

I think clarity of thought and not emotions must take prescient when it comes to the Castro regime.

The only concern for Castro is the all mighty US $,  that he so critizes.  He has shown throughout the years that he cares NOTHING for the people of Cuba, he lives off of their misery, has detroyed his own Country, has destroyed all the principles and foundation in which the Counrty of Cuba was build on.  Has distorted the Consitution of the Republic of Cuba.

Folks with all due respect to those on the island of Cuba and those around the Globe... it is what it is....

Let's Stop saying Cuba Libre and Let's Make it Happen!

Let's turn up the HEAT, so that LIBERTY can prevail once and for all.

Godspeed,

Am Back!!!

It has been awhile, I have not updated or made any comments on my simple blog.  I have been very busy doing the Capitalist thing, working hard/smart, making money, helping people, working on my film project and yes...Playing GOLF!

I do read all the blogs from Cuba those that I consider to be like minded and those that I consider to be the Castro regime's puppets.

Here we are June 20, 2011, the same status quo continues in Cuba!

Let me break it to you gentle, my dear Cuban friends within the island and outside the island whereever, God destin for you to be.

I think many should go back to basics and read the definition in websters dictionary of what the word..Action, Change, Liberty/Freedom and Democracy means.

Perhaps, it is easier said than done, I do understand, I can be inside my very peaceful home, in the United States of America, writing this, having all the comforts that freedom brings and that my parents decided for me to have.

The key word being decided!

Yes, one must make decisions either you are with God or you are with the "so called Devil".

With all due respect to all Cubanos, yes, a decision must be made on what side you are on.

Again, here we are and all we continue to hear are the same of the same, NO solutions to the problems that need to be address on CUBA!

Perhaps the time has come to be a little more action oriented, bring solutions to the table and be hard core against the Castro regime.  Oh yeah, this goes for many Cubanos and also for President Obama's administration that has NO clue on the Cuban issue.  This is NOT a party statement, this is a Reality statement!

I am tired of this false cultural inter-change, I am tired of a certain few in Castro's Cuba who can travel, yet the average person can NOT travel, I am tired of Americans who are totally ignorant on the Cuban issue or perhaps pretend to be.  Go ahead invest your hard earned dollars under the Castro dictatorship, so that I can laugh at you when you lose it all.  Due to your greed and or your true ignorance!

Here is a simple question, If you have cancer would you like the Surgeon to get to the Root and destroy the cells or do you prefer to have a band aid placed on your cancer cell?

This is what Fidel and Raul Castro are a Cancer Cell that the ONLY solution is to pull and kill the root cause of the problem and than we can talk about Solutions in a democractic and non-terrorist way.

I marvel at the way people throw around the words...action, change, liberty/freedom and democracy.  The key factor to obtain this is to make an executive decision based on freedom, prosperity and justice for all.... and not politics!

May your days be Blessed with love, peace and true democracy and freedom!
