Hubris has characterized the repressive actions of the Cuban regime these days to Throughout the country, which had its most brutal in the harassment of Damas de Blanco on 23 February, when commemorating the first anniversary of the assassination of Orlando Zapata Tamayo.
The details of what happened in this week's ominous are known and have had wide international repercussions. The regime knows that excesses of this kind, have a huge political cost and still have not hesitated to deal with it.
events in the Arab world and in particular what happens in Libya, are shaking the tyrant and bully is to hide his fear.
What's left of Fidel Castro can not hide his alignment by Gaddafi. He questioned the information of the news agencies about the hundreds of deaths that has produced the brutal repression in this country and complain about the hypothetical death of unarmed civilians from a supposed invasion of NATO, and yet does not express any regret for the dead caused by the Libyan regime, even when the Minister of the Interior admitted that the troops killed between 300 and 400 people with the justification that they intended to take military bases.
The harmony between two tyrants is evident in their words; When Fidel Castro said: "... I can not imagine the Libyan leader leaving the country, ..." and said Gaddafi fight to the last drop of his blood.
The bravado of these characters end up as the flight of Manuel Noriega when the U.S. invasion, the concealment of bodies of Saddam Hussein capture or surrender of Raul Castro to the authorities after the assault on headquarters Moncada in 1953.
But what is astonishing is that while Fidel Castro ended his reflections on Libya entitled "Danse Macabre of cynicism" on February 23 at 7 and 42 pm, was still the act of repudiation with more than a thousand demonstrators to the Damas de Blanco front of the house of Laura Pollan is not interested just in case the danse macabre of meanness that there are developed? Or cared too much and was its author?
no doubt that these were not spontaneous demonstrations of the population, and these days that many opponents were arrested, others were cloistered in their homes, in addition to the numerous beatings.
Martha Beatriz Roque struck a woman who identified herself as a security officer State, Hector Maseda, recently released from prison and husband of Laura Pollan, we wanted to avoid entering your own home. These officers allowed to throw eggs, stones, water and uttering profanities during those six hours.
is possible that in the homes of some of the participants in the crowd eggs remaining after their tables, which has been occurring since the acts of repudiation of the eighties.
Among the conglomerate that surrounded the house of Laura Pollan had no neighbors, except two or three cases dishonorable.
Can we think of spontaneity when even took a car to drive loudspeaker shouting of slogans?
must be said, however, that unless a vociferous group of powerful strings, the other unarmed demonstrators remained, silent and expressionless.
Most embarrassing was the presence of innocent children in that crowd, and especially of so many men that were provided to single women peaceful outrage.
While the mob verbally abusive to the memory of Zapata, the Damas de Blanco did not leave a offensive word to the already extensive list of dead that the old and the license has left the ranks of the leadership of the regime.
The distant echoes of Tiananmen and the rumble of the events in Libya hurt the ears of the tyrant and his followers. The result is to be hoped that Libya is different from Tiananmen, but whatever, if eventually, all roads lead to the same place, freedom, sooner or later.
