The "lords of death," like the classic thief, accuse others of the crimes they commit. The message in X from the US Embassy in Havana—ten years after its reopening—is a lie that is very easy to refute; humanity knows its authors.
"Fidel Castro and his group were/are ruthless thugs who stopped at nothing to consolidate absolute and perpetual power," they posted on social media.
The group of revolutionaries, led by Fidel Castro, does not need anyone to break a lance for them; their exemplary lives are there to refute any slander.
But one wonders in the face of such imposture: How can the putative fathers of Trujillo, Somoza, Batista, Videla, Pinochet, and company accuse someone else of committing massacres, violating rights, and murdering?
Such impudence is incredible, even for the godfathers of the dictatorships that sowed terror and death in Latin America. In the name of US interests, thousands of mothers still cry out for their missing sons and daughters.
In the book On Western Terrorism: From Hiroshima to the Drone Warfare, by Noam Chomsky and Andre Vltchek, 50 million deaths are attributed to colonialism and neocolonialism led by the US after the Second World War.
Suffice it to recall how, in November 1961, J. F. Kennedy ordered the bombing of South Vietnam, where napalm and chemical warfare were used; let us not forget the atomic bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki; nor the white phosphorus that burned Fallujah.
However, the latest barbarity that confirms them among the greatest genocidal forces in history is the White House's unconditional support for Israel in its extermination on Palestinian land, a support that illustrates, better than any slander in X, who the real ruthless thugs of this world are.
