Torture, unpunished crime of dictatorships from Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Nicaragua.

Torture is one of the most horrendous way of violating human rights that 21st Century Socialism’s dictatorships use to indefinitely hold-on to power. Notorious facts, international reports, and the free press prove that regimes from Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, and Nicaragua apply torture in order to institutionalize fear. This is a criminal methodology that still remains unpunished. It is promoted and protected by Castrochavism and is overlooked by far too many democratic governments.

And the people who are seeing their children die because of there is no food, no medicines and, no employment opportunities in a country looted for over a decade have realized that their plight is not their leader’s priority. Venezuela will thus most probably continue to slip into economic weakness and political dissolution with their leaders walking alone while a community of beggars consolidates itself very much like what we see in Haiti.

Un extraño Talibán.

No me sorprende lo sucedido en Afganistán. A los 15 años de edad vi a un ejército deshacerse y a una república desarmarse totalmente tras la fuga de Batista. Cuarenta mil hombres bien pertrechados se entregaron a unos cuantos centenares de escopeteros distribuidos en los diferentes centros montañosos de la Isla. Ninguna provincia importante había caído en poder de los rebeldes. Sé las enormes diferencias entre Afganistán y Cuba, pero también hay ciertas similitudes. La corrupción generalizada es una de ellas. La dependencia real e imaginada a los Estados Unidos es otra.
