A network of U.S.-based activist groups is pre-building the machinery to mobilize an army protesters within 24 hours of any U.S. military action, on a coordinated national timeline.
A tremendous and informative article by Ashe Short! Thank you to Dr. Martin for republishing it! Most Americans probably have no idea this is going on! Organizations tied to Cuba have built rapid response networks to organize protests and put pressure on the U.S. government to pull back in the event of a military conflict between the United States and Cuba. The National Network on Cuba is the most dangerous organization in the country that no one has ever heard of! Since at least June 2026, they have been sending out documents to organizers across the country urging them to prepare to coordinate protests outside ICE offices, military bases, recruiting centers, and other federal institutions should the U.S. get involved in military action in Cuba. The National Network for Cuba knows these progressive and leftist activists are useful idiots for them who will defend any authoritarian regime against the United States in the name of “anti-imperialism.” They are therefore, perfect dupes for them. What these activists don’t realize is, is that the NNOC is doing the bidding of Havana. The tremendous watchdog organization ADN Cuba is doing invaluable work by tracking their activities. The goal of what the NNOC is doing is to make the political climate too materialistically and politically costly for the U.S. government to wage war in Cuba. But they’re not alone, numerous Cuban friendly organizations have organized protests in solidarity with the Communist regime in Cuba. The regime in Havana is slowly crumbling and Miguel Diaz-Canel’s hold on power is slipping as Cubans are increasingly more and more protesting the dire situation in their country. So they fund these organizations to keep the United States from helping the Cuban people and help keep them propped up. I’m glad the Trump administration has been so aggressive in sanctioning the Cuban regime and its confederates.
For all these left-wing apologists for Cuba like the protesters the NNOC is trying to organize, let’s get something straight here. The Communist regime in Cuba is evil and its leaders past and present who you do admire and wear t-shirts of were evil. Fidel Castro and Che Guevara were romantic revolutionary icons nor were they dashing sex symbols. They were monsters who you should be ashamed to be glorifying. Let’s talk about Fidel Castro for a minute. Young Fidel Castro was a great admirer of Nazi pageantry and was often seen around campus when he was at university, carrying a copy of Mein Kampf along with a pistol. The title he gave himself as dictator of Cuba “Lider Maximo” perfectly mimics the German title of Fuhrer. He patterned his infamous “History Will Absolve Me” speech after Hitler’s 1924 trial speech after the failed Beer Hall Putsch in Munich. Hitler said “You may pronounce me guilty, but the eternal court of history will absolve me.” Castro by the same token, said in 1953 during his trial for the Moncada putsch, “Condemn me, it doesn't matter, history will absolve me." Let’s talk about what Cuba was like before Castro came to power. Cuban exile, author and conservative activist Humberto Fontova in an article he wrote for NewsMax provides with a portrait of how Cuba thrived before Castro’s rise to power, “For the record: In 1958, that "impoverished Caribbean island" had a higher standard of living than Ireland and Austria, almost double Spain and Japan's per capita income, more doctors and dentists per capita than Britain, and lower infant mortality than France and Germany – the 13th-lowest in the world, in fact. Today, Cuba's infant-mortality rate – despite the hemisphere's highest abortion rate, which skews this figure downward – is 24th from the top.” He continues, “a nation with a formerly massive influx of European immigrants needs machine guns, water cannons and tiger sharks to keep its people from fleeing, while half-starved Haitians a short 60 miles away turn up their noses at any thought of emigrating to Cuba.”
Castro is often credited with making the Cuban population literate but as Mr. Fontova points out, “In 1958, 80 percent of Cubans were literate, and Cuba spent the most per capita on public education of any nation in Latin America. During its war of independence near the turn of the 20th century, Cuba was utterly devastated, having lost a quarter of its population. So, Cuba's achievements in national prosperity, health, and education came practically from scratch and in only slightly more time than Castro's stint in power. Can any sane person claim that given that record – and given Cuba's expenditures on public education – literacy would not have been eradicated in a few short years?”
Castro executed about 14,000 people by firing squad according to the “Black Book of Communism” written by French scholars and published in English by the Harvard University Press. The Castro regime’s murder was quadruple that of General Augusto Pinochet’s in China who executed only 3,000. Castro makes Pinochet look like a Christian choir boy by comparison! The Cuba Archive Project headed by scholars Maria Werleu and Armando Lago found an even higher death toll if one factors in all those who died at sea and in the desperate anti-Communist insurgency of the early 1960s. Adding in all the causalities from both, Castro’s death toll is closer to about 102,000. Fidel Castro was also a vicious racist who overthrew a black Cuban head of state and replaced his government with one that was only nine percent of the ruling Stalinist party was black and where the prison population is eighty to ninety percent black. This would include Eusebio Penalver, the longest suffering black political prisoner in history, who spent more time locked up in Castro’s gulag than Nelson Mandela did in prison in South Africa. He also sentenced two black men Dr. Elias Biscet and Jorge Antunez to 20 years in prison, for the crime of quoting Dr. Martin Luther King in a public square. He drove a higher percentage of Jews out of Cuba than Tsar Nicholas II did out of Russia or Hafez Al-Assad did out of Syria. His firing squads gunned down pregnant women, his coast guard machine-gunned mothers with their children who attempted to escape to freedom in the United States on rafts and hid regime made Cuban women the most suicidal in the world, tripling the pre-revolutionary suicide rate. This is the man you folks admire and want to keep the regime he created and that Raul Castro and Miguel Diaz-Canel who followed in Fidel’s footsteps and have perpetuated, in power?! Just because you hate America so much?! You also seem to have an affinity for Castro’s hangman Che Guevara.
Well let me you about who the REAL Che Guevara was divorced from all the romantic propaganda. Che Guevara was a sadistic killer who said hate was a good emotion to feel. He hated blacks, Mexicans and gay people, was a hardcore Stalinist, dreamed of firing nuclear missiles at New York City and murdering millions of Americans, lived like a dandy while claiming to be a man of the people, was a bad soldier, and was a coward who when cornered and caught by the Bolivian Army shouted “Don’t shoot! I’m Che! I’m worth more alive to you than dead!” Che also once declared, “judicial evidence is an archaic bourgeois detail. We execute from Revolutionary Conviction.” Once Castro took power, Che Guevara held a public book burning of 3,000 books whose content the regime didn’t approve of and signed the death warrants of several authors. It’s ironic that progressives and leftists admire a man who persecuted hippies, gay people, free-thinkers, and poets and who employed constant surveillance, control, and repression. I’d like to share this passage from Guevara’s famous Motorcycle Diaries, “"My nostrils dilate while savoring the acrid odor of gunpowder and blood.” He also wrote in a letter to his father no less, “I'd like to confess, Papa, at that moment I discovered that I really like killing." I also find it ironic he was so gung-ho about anti-imperialism as he was pretty imperialistically I might add, trying to impose his ideals as an Argentinian onto Cubans. Upon the victory of the Communist revolution in 1958, “Che commandeered for himself one of the most luxurious mansions in Havana—complete with a yacht harbor, monster swimming pool, seven bathrooms, sauna and massage salon, and five television sets.” There’s your “man of the people!” Che publicly applauded the Soviet invasion of Hungary in 1956 and the brutal crackdown on the Hungarian Uprising, and denounced the students protesters who were battling Soviet tanks in Budapest as “fascists.”
