The Tolerance of Many Countries for Cuba
Although there is an ongoing protest inside Cuba against the tyranny of the Castro brothers, the dictatorship continues, in one way or another, openly or covertly, its aggressions against figures of the opposition who disagree with what the dictatorship does against its prisoners, especially those who go on hunger strikes.
Right now a regrettable event has taken place in Cuba that has appalled many people in and outside Cuba. Even in the White House President Barack Obama has issued a statement lamenting the death of a prisoner who had been on a hunger strike for fifty days. Even if this stance by the White House might be part of the electoral campaign, the truth is that it is important that the president of the United States has spoken against what is happening in Cuba today, coinciding with the indignation and collective protest of all freedom-loving Cubans.
In many ways the tyranny of the Castro brothers represents a challenge to human sensibility in the civilized world. In more than half a century of doing whatever it wants in Cuba, since January 1, 1959, this arbitrary regime has destroyed the country with thousands of horrific death-squad executions, plundering of private property and prisons full of people that oppose the regime.
It is regrettable that many governments, almost all those of the free world, have been very tolerant, to say the least, with the outrages of this dictatorship that openly has defied this free world with reprehensible acts that hurt the most elemental human feelings. If the European countries had imposed a trade embargo on communist Cuba, the cause of freedom there would have had a foundation for a pragmatic defense.
It is a duty of those who love freedom to denounce and condemn in a sustained way any new violation of the Castro dictatorship against the people that it has oppressed for more than half a century. Certainly there are many who believe that it is not an easy task to destroy that tyranny. However, much of its permanence should be attributed to the tolerance of the free world.
