No one anticipated in 1958 that in the midst of a remarkable prosperity, Cuba would fall into Communism. It seemed impossible that an island 90 miles from the US, the most powerful Capitalistic country in the planet, could turn Communist. Yet in two years it happened, at the cost of hundreds of lives, thousands of exiles, the eradication of free press, freedom of speech, private education, freedom of worship and private property. Now, everythi...

1933 saw a major revolution in Cuba. Prompted by the cruel dictatorship of General Gerardo Machado, the economic hardships of a world depression, and the growing control of their economy by Spaniards and North Americans, a group of Cubans led by students and intellectuals sought radical reforms and a profound transformation of Cuban society. Machado was deposed, his followers and supporters had to go on exile and a new style of dealing with po...

Frédéric Bastiat was the first European thinker that reacted and responded to the evil and sinister concepts presented by Marx and Engels in The Communist Manifesto. His thinking has turned to be more relevant today than ever because a similar situation exists in the USA today as it did in 1848 France. The same Socialist-Communist ideas and plans that were then adopted in by the French are now sweeping America. The arguments advanced against s...

El segundo, CUBA Y SUS JUECES, del escritor Cubano Raimundo Cabrera, refutó, capítulo por capítulo, todos los aspectos de la vida Cubana desvirtuados por Moreno bajo...

For more than half a century, Cuba has suffered one of the longest-running dictatorships in history, where dozens of political prisoners are held in prison, and the entire population is locked up in a large penitentiary where neither dissent nor disagreement is forgiven, and the dissidents are punished with years in prison or death. It is a new oligarchic class, with a single political party, without elections, with an absolute disregard for H...

Nadie anticip? que la Rep?blica de Cuba caer?a en manos de los Marxistas en 1959. Nadie pens? que pudiera ser geopol?ticamente posible que una isla a 90 millas de los Estados Unidos fuera invadida por las izquierdas Comunistas estando tan cerca del pa?s Capitalista m?s poderoso del planeta. En el corto per?odo de dos a?os, sin embargo, el Comunismo se apoder? de Cuba, a costa de cientos de vidas, dos millones de exiliados, y la eliminaci?n de ...

For more than 500 million years, our planet has had many cycles of heating and cooling, mostly due to phenomena that occur in the solar plasma. In the 1970s the planet was cooling, in the 1990s it is warming up. Humans never had anything to do with those cycles. Suddenly, corrupt politicians and hungry scientists have launched the thesis that the earth is warming more than ever in an irreversible process that will make it disappear into a cata...

El libro La Insurrecci?n por Dentro, de Don Fernando G?mez es, entre muchos publicados en La Habana desde 1895 a 1898, uno de los que mejor presenta la realidad de la Guerra del 1895 seg?n la visi?n de los Espa?oles. Es necesario pasar por alto las inexactitudes, los errores y hasta las calumnias y difamaciones, que no fueron exclusivos de la prensa y los autores Espa?oles, y conocer la visi?n tan opuesta que se ten?a en Espa?a de la realidad ...

Al conocer del alzamiento del 10 de Octubre de 1868, M?ximo G?mez se present? en los campamentos Cubanos en calidad de soldado, sin hacer menci?n de sus conocimientos militares, en pocas semanas le otorgaron el grado de Sargento. A los pocos d?as de su incorporaci?n, tras la hist?rica carga al machete del 26 de Octubre en Pinos de Baire, M?ximo G?mez fue identificado como uno de los m?s capaces jefes del Ej?rcito Libertador Cubano, los propios...

El planeta Tierra ha tenido por m?s de 500 millones de a?os numerosos ciclos de calentamiento y enfriamiento, debidos principalmente a los fen?menos que ocurren en el plasma solar. En los a?os del '60 y '70 el planeta se enfriaba, en los '90 se calentaba. Los seres humanos nunca han tenido nada que ver con esos ciclos. De repente, unos pol?ticos corruptos y unos cient?ficos hambrientos han lanzado la tesis de que la Tierra est? al desaparecer ...

He was also a great orator, poet, journalist, and important personality in all countries of the Americas. The ideas of Mart...
