their Fangs out against cuba
The ease at with the U.S. empire subdued Venezuela (for now) has whetted their appetite. They hunger for Cuba. They are now blockading oil deliveries. They talk about "terrorism" and "communism" but they hate Cuba because it broke away from the empire in 1959. Rubio, who never set foot in Cuba, represents those Cubans in the U.S. full of resentment for their loss of privileges. Trump is giving him free reign to act out his fantasies.
Cuba is in real trouble. Its authoritarian government brooks no criticism and does not go to the Cuban people for ideas. It needs to mobilize all its forces. Free all political prisoners. Allow free speech and freedom of the press. Legalize political parties. Watch for betrayal by the ruling clique.
For a recent article about Cuba see a piece by Cuban-born Sam Farber. Click here.

A Conn. call for Israel to release Palestinian doctor
On Nov. 22 the Middle East Crisis Committee gave Palestinian doctor Hussam Abu Safiya its Courage Award at the Palestine Museum US in Woodbridge.
It had to be done “in absentia” as this doctor and hospital director has been in a series of Israeli prisons since last December. His attorney says he’s lost a third of his body weight. Looking at photos from a year ago compared with what you see in a video circulating in the Israeli media the claim is quite believable.
He has not been charged with any crime. Instead, Dr. Hussam Abu Safiya was scooped up by the Israeli army when it committed the crime of destroying Kamal Adwan Hospital. Amnesty International calls for Abu Safiya’s release.
Abu Safiya had written several opinion pieces in the New York Times. In the last one, published a few weeks before his arrest, he was described as the lead physician in Gaza for the humanitarian organization MedGlobal.
