Havana. August 19, 2009

(Taken from CubaDebate) Granma

A little while ago, I wrote about U.S. plans to impose the absolute superiority of its air force as an instrument of domination over the rest of the world.

What Should Be Demanded From The United States
Reflections by Comrade Fidel Castro
20/7/2009 Cuba news Agency
The meeting in Costa Rica didn’t, nor could it, lead to peace. The people of Honduras are not at war, it’s just the perpetrators of the coup who are using weapons against the people. One should demand that they cease their war against the people. That meeting between Zelaya and the coup was only good for discrediting the constitutional president and wearing away at the energies of the Honduran people. Read the rest of this entry »

Fidel Castro Ruz
April 23, 2009

He did not offend, nor did he wish to offend any other Latin American country, but sticking to the truth in every minute of his appearance: Venezuela, Bolivia and Nicaragua, as spokespersons for the ALBA, expressly rejected the idea of the Final Declaration being presented as a consensus agreement.

REFLECTIONS BY FIDEL

The McCain Tour and the Manifest Destiny of the U. S. Fourth Fleet

(Translated by ESTI) Granma
