A
withheld appendix backing terrorism
BY JEAN GUY ALLARD
THIS is a NON-classified report:
for reasons of security and EFFECTIVE
IMPLEMENTATION, some of the recommendations are
contained in a separate appendix, states the
introduction to the latest document produced by the
Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba, which has
just been approved by President George W. Bush.
A veritable gift to those in
Miami who are preaching terror and annexation – and
use their rhetoric in the press and even before the
courts – the sentence says everything in terms of
the value of a document whose most indecent
regulations will be kept secret, given that they are
not be to confessed to the world.
The 85-page lecture, in which the
word “regime” – to designate the Cuban government
with full-blown imperial arrogance – is repeated 145
times, bears the signature of Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice and Cuban-American Carlos Gutiérrez,
secretary of trade.
More than 100 officials from 17
federal agencies and departments under the authority
of proconsul Caleb McCarry – the man behind the
disastrous putsch in Haiti and now in charge of Plan
Bush – have been meeting over months in order to
round off the usual anti-Cuban rhetoric for the
consumption and satisfaction of the Miami terrorist
fauna.
THIS IS THE TIME FOR BOLD ACTION
“This is the time for bold,
decisive action and clarity of message,” write the
authors of the report, in an evident reference to
the latest activities of the U.S. Interest Section (USIS).
Expanding the use of recruited
mercenaries, directed and funded by the USIS is
overtly suggested, in the framework of a “diplomatic
strategy to undermine the regime’s succession
strategy.”
Without concealing in any way its
will to involve other governments in is gross
interference maneuvers, the document affirms that
the United States and “other friends of democracy”
should support the “work” of those USIS informers.
However, the Plan proposes to
further fund – to the tune of tens of millions of
dollars – the groups in Miami, whose links with the
cruelest acts of terrorism against Cuba are even
documented in FBI files.
For this clientele of the Bush
clan, the report notes first that a further $80
million of taxpayers’ money should be squandered in
the next two years via a “Fund for the Democratic
Future,” which will further enrich the partners.
But it adds that another $20
million will be annually allocated to “democracy
programs” until “the dictatorship ceases to exist.”
The impossible dream of
transmitting TV Martí “by the most effective means
possible” will have to be resolved via a study
within a 90-day period. Owned by the Voice of
America, TV and Radio Martí have also provided –
since their creation – the softest and most
scandalous jobs from which hundreds of professional
parasites of the so-called anti-Castro movement have
made a living for years.
FOREIGN MERCENARIES TO BE
RECRUITED
Implicitly stating the intention
to occupy Cuba in one way or another, the authors of
the text are seeking personnel. They propose
identifying trained Cubans living abroad and other
Spanish speakers interested in supporting a possible
imperial intervention and encouraging these
individuals and groups to keep at the ready.
The text, in which an abysmal
ignorance of Cuban realities is apparent, affirms
that “the regime” does not attend to people’s “most
basic humanitarian needs.”
“You do not have a better friend
than the United States,” Secretary of State
Condoleezza Rice told the Cubans on presenting the
report with Trade Secretary Carlos Gutiérrez.
Gutiérrez promised “emergency
food supplies, water, fuel and medical equipment”
for an eventual “transition government" although he
did not comment on some of the plan’s directives
anticipating the return of property to the landed
rich of pre-Revolution times, the dismantling of
social security from which more than millions of
Cubans benefit; the privatization of schools and
hospitals, and amen to the persecution and trial of
members of the island’s political and mass
organizations.
Everything in the document reflects the will to
undertake, sooner or later, the annexation of the
island of Cuba. Everything is written by the
imperial power and its lackeys in a tone that would
delight individuals like Orlando Bosch, Luis Posada
Carriles, Santiago Alvarez and other killers, whose
dreams of a Cuba subjected to the empire are
reflected in the very existence of the withheld
appendix, an augury of fresh aggression.
