The Accomplices of Castro's Totalitarian Tyranny
The totalitarian Marxist-Leninist tyranny of Fidel Castro has been in power for forty-eight years and one-and-a-half months with the open or disguised complicity of a great number of governments and political leaders around the world that have directly or indirectly supported it. Without this complicity, there would be no explanation for the almost half-a-century of this tyranny.
Governments and political leaders who claim to defend human rights, democracy and, consequently, freedom, have supported that regime. And large organs of the mass media around the world have shared the responsibility of encouraging this tyranny. There are many ways to do this; sometimes openly expressing their support, and others covering its crimes or lessening their importance.
Naturally, a leftist tyranny undeservedly enjoys that support. And because the regime is communist there is no timely reaction against it to help the Cubans who love their homeland and want it to be free. However, those who support Cuban communism do not identify themselves as communists. On the contrary, they absurdly reject that adjective. And it is absurd, because supporting a crime such as this one, is to be an accomplice.
The same thing that is said with respect to Cuba must be said about other governments that have recently emerged in the Americas, which have become subjects of the Cuban tyranny and share, as far as the circumstances and their time in government allow it, all the monstrosities of the Cuban regime, with the exception of the mass executions of 1959.
Faced with this support for the Castro tyranny, there should be a mobilization of governments and peoples who have a sense of responsibility regarding the defense of democracy and liberty, to do everything they can to help the Cubans shake-off the yoke that binds them. And this is something that must be done not only because of human solidarity, but also out of an instinct of self-preservation.
