Millions of dollars are being sent by the governments and people of the US of A, Canada and other Western nations to the government and NGOs of Jamaica, to help that country recover from the devastation caused by the disaster. But nothing is being sent to Cuba.
Why? Because Cuba's Communist government has made itself our enemy. They want to overthrow the Western democracies and bring our prosperous societies down to the level of abject poverty experienced by their subjects.
The response of the West to the troubles caused by the Cuban government -- not just to their own island state but to countries as far afield as Ukraine -- can only be to keep the necessaries of life from reaching them. Some day, it is hoped, the hardships caused by the Cuba Embargo will cause the Cuban people to rise up and overthrow their cruel and corrupt government.
Earlier this week, Mike Waltz, the American Representative to the United Nations, explained the whys and wherefores of the Embargo to the UN General Assembly. In this video, you will here Mr Waltz's remarks in tull, as well as an interruption on a point of order by Cuban Foreign Minister Bruno Rodriguez, followed by the Ambassador's powerful conclusion.
The link to this video was sent to us by our new Agent 10, whom Walt welcomes to our little group of friends. Agent 10 knows from personal experience what it's like to live in what she calls "that hellhole". She warns that the Communists have friends in the USA and Canada, pretending to be anti-Communist expats.
Beware of organizations with names like "Cuban-American Friendship Society"* asking for money to help the people of Cuba. Any money you give them goes straight to the Cuban government and military. Give only to people you know and trust.
Canadian readers should also want to think twice, or even three times, about going to Cuba for your winter holiday. The money you spend at Cuban resorts goes to the government, not to the people, not even the people who work in those places, who receive only starvation wages. By spending money in Cuba, you are actually helping our enemies. Don't do it!

* Footnote: Agent 3 sez that I forgot to mention the Fair Play for Cuba Committee. which was set up by the Castro government in 1960, and had branches all over the US of A and Canada. Lee Harvey Oswald was connected with them. Remember him? As far as we know, the FPCC no longer exists as such.
