After starring in public Service Announcements for the Obama administration, Mexican-American Labor activist Dolores Huestra is now starring in public service announcements for Fidel Castro’s regime. Senora Huetra is a co-founder of United Farm Workers of American and a member of Democratic Socialists of America. Given the current political climate Senora Huestra’s credentials apparently qualify her as spokesperson for both the U.S. and for the regime that denounced the U.S. “the great enemy of mankind!” and craved to nuke it.
The release of the duly convicted “Cuban Five,” for whom Senora Dolores Huerta campaigns in her Castro-regime infomercial, has become (next to dropping the so-called U.S. embargo) Castro’s top propaganda goal. Naturally U.S. celebrities have flocked to the cause like flies to…..well.
Below please find a few items omitted from Dolores Huerta’s Castroite video.
On September 14, 1998, the FBI uncovered a Castro spy ring in Miami and arrested ten of them. Four others managed to scoot back to Cuba. These became known as the “Wasp Network” or “The Cuban Five” in Castroite parlance. According to the FBI’s affidavit, the convicted Castro-agents who Dolores Huerta champions were engaged in, among other acts:
- Gathering intelligence against the Boca Chica Air Naval Station in Key West, the McDill Air Force Base in Tampa and the headquarters of the U.S. Southern Command in Homestead, Fla.
- Compiling the names, home addresses and medical files of the U.S. Southern Command’s top officers, along with those of hundreds of officers stationed at Boca Chica.
- Infiltrating the headquarters of the U.S. Southern Command.
- Sending letter bombs to Cuban-Americans.
- Spying on McDill Air Force Base, the U.S. armed forces’ worldwide headquarters for fighting “low-intensity” conflicts.
- Locating entry points into Florida for smuggling explosives.
Dolores Huerta’s poster-boys also infiltrated the Cuban-exile group Brothers to the Rescue, who flew unarmed planes to rescue Cuban rafters in the Florida straits, also known as “the cemetery without crosses.” The estimates of the number of Cubans dying horribly in the “cemetery without crosses,” run from 50-85,000. Brothers to The Rescue risked their lives almost daily, flying over the straits, alerting and guiding the Coast Guard to any balseros, and saving thousands of these desperate people from joining that terrible tally. (Prior to the Glorious Revolution, by the way, Cuba took in more immigrants per-capita than the U.S., including the Ellis Island years.)
By February of 1996 Brothers to The Rescue had flown 1,800 of these humanitarian missions and helped rescue 4,200 men, women and children. That month Dolores Huerta’s current cause célèbre’ passed to Castro the flight plan for one of the Brothers’ humanitarian flights over the Cemetery Without Crosses.
With this info in hand, Stalinist Cuba’s Top Guns, saluted and sprang to action. They jumped into their MIGs, took off and valiantly blasted apart (in international air space) the lumbering and utterly defenseless Cessnas. Four members of the humanitarian flights were thus murdered in cold blood.
Three of these men were U.S. citizens, the other a legal U.S. resident. Among the murdered was Armando Alejandre Jr., who came to the U.S. at age ten in 1960. His first order of business upon reaching the age of 18 was fulfilling his dream of becoming a U.S. citizen. His next was joining the United States Marine Corps and volunteering for service in Vietnam. He returned with several decorations. As a member of Brothers to the Rescue Alejandre often dropped flowers over the sea, in memory of the thousands they’d been unable to rescue in time. A man with a weapon or with both hands free to fight has always palsied Castro with fright. The notion of Fidel Castro facing a U.S. Marine in combat mode is simply laughable, in a pathetic sort of way. So Castro waited for Armando Alejandre Jr and his Brothers to be carrying flowers-and made his move, murdering them in cold blood. MIGs against Cessnas, cannon and rockets against flowers.
This is a Castro specialty. In high school Fidel got into an argument over a debt (he was always a deadbeat) with a schoolmate named Ramon Mestre, who pounded him like a gong. Fidel cried uncle and slunk away whimpering that he’d go fetch the money he owed Ramon.
Instead he came back with a cocked pistol, hoping to surprise and murder the unarmed Mestre, who’d already gone home. There’s your gen-you-wine Fidel in all his macho splendor. He does have a long memory however. Six months after he grabbed power, Castro had his goons grab Senor Mestre, who then suffered 20 years in Castro’s dungeons and torture chambers.
The premeditated atrocity against Alejandre and his brothers is what added the “manslaughter” and “conspiracy to commit murder” charges (on top of the ones listed above, 26 charges total) against Dolores Huerta’s most recent propaganda assignment from Fidel Castro.
Along with wailing against the “U.S. Embargo” and clamoring for the release of its terrorists in U.S. jails, note that the Castro regime also vents its spleen against a Breitbart contributor that seems to seriously get on its nerves.
