Thread Index To "former member of US armed services" Like you , and like hundreds of millions of others around the world, I was in that plane, I was in that building. Like you, I feel distressed and shocked by this diabolical act and can feel the searing intensity of pain and hate and anguish and rage... How can we cope with such corrosive emotions? How can we stop such lightning-bolts from frying our fragile reason-circuits? Nothing I say should be misinterpreted as in any way a justification for or a mitigation of the heinous actions committed last Tuesday. To my mind, the attack on the WTC and Pentagon were not only horrendous crimes against innocent victims and their friends and families, they have had a broader terrible effect: of permitting the US government to retake the initiative in its war against democratic rights, working people and oppressed nationalities at home and abroad.

Portada Cuban activists deliver petitions for change in Cuban government on eve of President Carter's visit VIVIAN SEQUERA, Associated Press Writer HAVANA - Activists delivered more than 11,020 signatures to Cuba's National Assembly on Friday, demanding a referendum for broad changes in Cuba's socialist system less than 48 hours before a visit here by former U.S. President Jimmy Carter. Known as Project Varela, the signature-gathering campaign is seen as the biggest homegrown, nonviolent campaign to force reforms in the government established by Fidel Castro 43 years ago. The petitions propose a referendum that would ask voters if they favor civil liberties like free speech, an amnesty for political prisoners, the right to start their own businesses. Cuba's constitution says the National Assembly should schedule a national referendum if it receives the verified signatures of 10,000 legal voters. "The heroes are these Cubans, more than 20,000 who signed this demand for an opening in a written declaration," campaign coordinator Oswaldo Paya said before entering the National Assembly, or Cuba's parliament.

Cunningham, United States Deputy Representative to the United Nations, on the Economic, Commercial and Financial Embargo Against Cuba, General Assembly Plenary, November 27, 2001 The United States cannot support this resolution. Our trade embargo against the Government of Cuba is a matter of bilateral trade policy and not an issue that the General Assembly should consider. We do not forbid other nations from trading with Cuba - that is their decision. We choose, because of the repressive policies and actions of the Cuban Government, not to trade with the Cuban government. We have every right to do so. Our bilateral economic trade embargo represents one element of our policy aimed at promoting democracy in Cuba. While maintaining the bilateral trade embargo, the U.S. has moved over the past few years to dramatically support the Cuban people. U.S. food sales are now legal to Cuba and the Cuban government is, as we speak, negotiating with U .S. companies the purchases of millions of dollars worth of food. The Cuban government reversed its policy of refusing to buy our food after turning down our post-Hurricane Michelle offer of disaster assistance.

Extractions: CubaConnect WHY DID THE UNITED STATES BREAK DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS WITH CUBA? Return to FactFile It is relevant to remember that Cuban-American diplomatic relations were maintained during the duration of the nationalization period of 1960. It is only on 3 January 1961 that the US government break diplomatic relations, initiating the first incident in an escalating war. It was not the nationalizations carried out by the Cuban Government that cause the breaking down of diplomatic relations, it was because the Cuban Government requested that the hundred or so employees that were part of the Embassy and Consulate of the United States in Cuba should be reduced to a rational and nominal number. This request is in accord with the practice of International Law and thus recognized as the established norm that stipulate diplomatic relations, as given in Article 11 of the Vienna Convention in reference to Diplomatic Relations. On January 3rd 1961 the Foreign Relations Minister, Dr. Raul Roa, wrote to the President of the UN Security Council the following explanation:

Extractions: 298. Memorandum From the Assistant Secretary of State for Inter-American Affairs (Rubottom) to the Deputy Under Secretary for Political Affairs (Murphy)[1] Washington, September 23, 1957. SUBJECT Deferral of Action on Cuban Government Request for Purchase of Tanks Background In a note of May 8, 1957, the Cuban Embassy asked for our approval for the purchase by the Cuban Army of eight (8) M-4 A-3 medium tanks.[2] The note did not indicate what these tanks were to be used for but our Army Mission in Habana stated that they were to be added to seven (7) like tanks already on inventory to form a tank company. A decision on this request was delayed pending a clarification from the Cuban Government on its then pending order for six (6) light tanks which our Army Mission in Habana considered unwarranted. The latter order was finally cancelled in July and in response to the Department's request, Embassy Habana recommended that the medium tank order be approved subject to the Department's review prior to delivery. As payment on acceptance of such an order is required, the Department with the concurrence of the Department of Defense considered that it was not feasible to comply with the Embassy's recommendation. Since the receipt of this request last May, the Department has been under constant pressure from the Cuban Embassy for a favorable decision on the grounds that it had President Batista's personal support. In the aftermath of the recent revolt at Cienfuegos (September 5 and 6), which was quelled by the use of tanks and MAP furnished and/or supported aircraft, Cuban pressure to approve this request increased and it became apparent that an immediate decision would have to be made.

Extractions: 16 july On the first anniversary of the arrest and detention of four leading critics of the Cuban government, Amnesty International reiterates its call for their immediate and unconditional release on the grounds that they are prisoners of conscience detained solely for peacefully expressing views that are contrary to Cuban Government policy. They were arrested following a press conference for foreign journalists during which they criticized an official discussion document The Party of Unity, Democracy and the Human Rights We Defend which is being circulated within the country as a prelude to the Communist Party Congress. They also presented to the journalists their own analysis of the document The Homeland is for Everyone. All four are awaiting trial on charges which are believed to include "enemy propaganda" which carries a maximum prison sentence of fifteen years. Date and formal charges for their trial are unknown. Background: In 1995 the Cuban Government began a major crackdown on dissidents, following the formation of Concilio Cubano, Cuban Concilium, a forum of over 100 unofficial groups, including human rights groups, independent professional associations and political parties. Since then, members of Concilio Cubano and journalists working for independent organizations have been subjected to persistent harassment and frequent short-term detention. They have also been threatened with long-term imprisonment and occasionally with physical violence if they do not cease their activities or leave the country. A few have been brought to trial and imprisoned.

They repeatedly rammed the tug, used high pressure water hoses on the victims, and sank the ship killing at least 41 men, women, and children seven miles off the coast of Havana, Cuba. Nearly two years later on October 16, 1996 the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights concluded that the Cuban government was responsible for the deaths of the 41 people shipwrecked on the tug "13 de Marzo", the emotional trauma of the relatives of the victims and survivors who lost loved ones. The Commission also noted that the Cuban government had refused to recover the bodies or allow others to recover them for proper burial by their families.
