Communist Russia has Formed Alliances with Communist Cuba and Communist Venezuela
As tension over the Communist Russian occupation of Georgia
continues to simmer, Moscow is quietly stirring the embers of the
Cold War in another part of the world - still Communist Cuba. In
August, Communist Russian Deputy Prime Minister Igor Sechin and
Communist Russian Security Council Secretary General Nikolai
Patrushev traveled to Havana and met with Communist Cuban Dictator
Raul Castro.
Recently, Russia has expressed interest in reviving both
economic and military ties with its erstwhile Caribbean client
state, ties that
languished after the implosion of the Soviet Union in the
early 1990's.
Communist Cuba, for its part, is interested in cultivating
partnerships with other regimes besides Dictator Hugo Chavez' of
Communist Venezuela. While Communist Cuba has long resented what it
regards as Moscow's abrupt betrayal and abandonment of the
Communist Castro Regime at the end of the Cold War, every
indication points to a willingness on both sides to bury the
hatchet. After the 9/11 attacks in the U.S. of 2001, Communist
Russia supposedly abandoned the huge Soviet-built Cuban electronic
eavesdropping center at Lourdes, which was run by 1,500 Communist
Russian Military and KGB / FSB Technicians, but that has not been
verified. But Communist Cuba continues to monitor and jam American
government and civilian signals and broadcasts - either from
Lourdes or the Communist Chinese-built facility 20 miles from
Havana.
"Communist Russia seeks to reassert itself as a world power,
which includes a renewed presence in Latin America, while Communist
Cuba wants to diversify its economic partners to reduce its
dependence on Communist Venezuela," explained Dan Erikson at
Inter-American Dialogue in Washington, D.C., as reported in a
recent Reuters story.
Communist Russia has also signaled a willingness to
re-establish a military presence in Communist Cuba, including a
possible missile defense system.
Referring to Russian anger at the U.S. deal to set up a
missile defense system in Poland and the Czech Republic, Cuba
expert Phil Peters at the
Lexington Institute in Virginia told Jeff Franks of Reuters,
"Russia is clearly irritated at what it perceives as U.S. meddling
in its neighborhood. It seems to be sending a message that if you
play on our periphery, we'll play in yours."
Some U.S. analysts were doubtful Communist Cuba would rebuild
its military alliance with Communist Russia. "It's impossible to
imagine that anyone in the Cuban leadership would want to put their
country in the bull's eye of another superpower showdown
reminiscent of the missile crisis," Brian Latell, a former CIA
analyst, told Jeff Franks.
The Putin / Medvedev government, however, is offering a very
different take. Following the Sechin and Patrushev visit to Havana,
the Communist Russian Security Council said in a statement that the
two countries had agreed to work "to restore traditional relations
in all areas of cooperation."
Communist Russia has also formed a financial and military
relationship with Communist Dictator Hugo Chavez of Venezuela.
Communist Venezuela has formed alliances with Left Wing
Presidents of the following countries: Argentina, Bolivia, Brazil,
Chile, Cuba, Ecuador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Paraguay, and Uruguay.
Communism is spreading more quickly than anticipated. They
now have the money to do it with. While the United States was at a
War in Iraq, Venezuela was raising the price of oil worldwide to
accelerate its profit margin from its sales of oil to the U.S. and
therefor increasing its buying power for military weapons and
spread its communist influence throughout the region.
The United States is also a target for a political take-over
with the upcoming Presidential Election. Just like it was done with
the other countries.
Also, we have noticed that the media in the U.S. is being
manipulated by the Communist. A lot of criticism of the current
democratically elected President and now of the Republican
Presidential Candidate.
Not much criticism of the Democratic Presidential Candidate.
We have noticed that international Communist and Terrorist are in
favor of this candidate.
Ask yourself, Why? Does the Democratic Presidential Candidate
have connections in the Socialist World? Maybe you can provide us
with the answer when you send us your comments. Expect to see some
comments from Communist iReporters.
It is time that the U.S. population begin observing what is
happening outside their borders. It is time to question as to which
Presidential Candidate will defend the U.S. from Foreign and
Domestic Communists.
Now is not the time for change. The U.S. has been doing fine
for the last 232 years. It has its flaws, but it continues to be
the best system worldwide. Those who promise change are your
Communist Candidates. All the candidates from the other countries
promised changes and thats how they managed to get elected.
You need a U.S. Presidential Candidate that will protect the
U.S. Constitution and the U.S. Congress from any changes. To
not permit a controlling Centralized Government, and defend
the U.S. from any Foreign or Domestic Enemies.
Also, now is not the time to panic with the stock market. For
every seller there is a buyer waiting for the stock prices to drop.
At this time the buyer with money is the Communist Dictator Hugo
Chavez. He initially purchases private oil stocks and later he
takes over by changing laws within the country. He has people from
all levels working for him in making management changes within the
oil companies and then begin to control or limit its production.
Just observe what is happening in Bolivia. The country is
divided into two groups (Communist and Pro-Democracy).
Communist Dictator Hugo Chavez continues to send Cuban and
Venezuelan Military to Bolivia disguised as Medical Doctors and
other Professions. This is just creating more unemployment for the
local population and forcing them to depend on the centralized
government.
Pro-Democracy Leaders continue to defend their Constitution
and Rights to Freedom.
