Genocide in Palestinian

Although the International Criminal Court (ICC) had to “lump together” the Zionist government of Israel and the Palestinian resistance movement Hamas, in order to propose a detention agreement to the Israeli Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, and his Minister of Defense, Yoav Gallant, for the genocide being committed in Gaza against the Palestinian population, the ruling clashed with the position of the United States, which does ñnot allow any sanction against Israel.
The reaction, both from President Joe Biden and á of State Antony Blinken, and even within the U.S. Congress, has surpassed everything imaginable: U.S. sanctions against the ICC itself, for seeking to act against Netanyahu and his Minister of Defense.
The U.S. president described as “outrageous” the request of the prosecutor of the international justice entity, Karim Khan, for issuing the arrest warrants.
“And let me be clear: whatever this prosecutor may imply, there is no equivalence – none – between Israel and Hamas. We will always stand with Israel,” said the U.S. president, while denying that genocide is being committed in Gaza.
The U.S. Congress, for its part, is promoting bipartisan legislation that would impose sanctions on anyone involved in the case of the arrest warrants.
In light of this situation, the Attorney General of the Hague Court has warned that threats against him and his institution constitute a criminal offense, after receiving a threatening letter from Republican and Democratic members of the U.S. Congress.
While the incumbent occupant of the White House reaffirms his position on the side of the massacre, Cuba, like most countries, demands respect for Palestinian civilians caught in the conflict by demanding that the UN Security Council fulfill its mandate for peace, Cubaminrex reported.
The island’s permanent representative to the United Nations, Ernesto Soberón, called on the 15-member body not to remain inert in the face of the ongoing massacre, and on the international community not to stop its call to halt the Israeli offensive.

FROM OUR ❤ TO CUBA

Cuba’s exemplary health service, free to all its citizens and many others through its international missions, now can’t access many medicines and supplies essential for the care, at times life saving, that its people need.

Cubans with heart conditions are dying or suffering serious symptoms because there are no heart pacemakers to implant. The most seriously ill cannot leave the hospital without a pacemaker.

Let’s raise $150,000 to send 300 heart pacemakers to Cuba. $500 will buy a heart pacemaker. Cuban surgeons will then insert it at no cost to the patient.

TAKE CUBA OFF THE SSOT LIST

Cuba has endured 64 years of a U.S. economic blockade. This intensified when President Trump unjustifiably put Cuba on a list of so-called State Sponsors of Terrorism (SSOT). President Biden has continued that listing. Companies worldwide that want to sell medicines or food to Cuba often can’t because their own bank refuses to accept Cuba’s payment under threat of enormous fines from the U.S. treasury for dealing with “terrorists.”

Tell Biden that he must, with a stroke of his pen, remove Cuba from this arbitrary list.

  • Make your opinions known to your Congressional representatives – by phone, email or best of all in person.
  • Get a resolution passed and sent to Biden, by your union branch, labor council or city council.

White House tries to asphyxiate the Cuban people

The deputy director general of the U.S. Directorate of the Cuban Foreign Ministry, Johana Tablada, described as genocidal the inclusion of Cuba in the unilateral list of countries that allegedly sponsor terrorism.
In an interview granted to the Cuban News Channel, the diplomat explained that the recent exclusion of the island from a list of nations that “do not fully cooperate in the fight against terrorism” does not mean its elimination from the general list of the State Department that imposes measures against this Caribbean country.
That unilateral measure constitutes one of the main genocidal tools of the White House to asphyxiate the Cuban people, and it persists, in spite of the fact that more and more voices are being raised against such injustice, she pointed out.
She affirmed that Washington uses the presence of Cuba in such a list as a justification for the unilateral coercive measures derived from them, which are associated with the purpose of asphyxiating the Island’s economy and holding the Government responsible for their impact.
She also pointed out that the U.S. Executive is simultaneously promoting a well-financed systematic communicational operation, in the mainstream press and digital platforms, to hold the victim country responsible for the impact of these inhumane measures, which significantly affect the population.
