Trump Threatens a Second Embargo of Cuba
The Trump administration is threatening to unleash a flood of lawsuits involving Cuba, which no U.S. president has ever done. It has set a deadline of March 2 to announce whether it will create, in the words of the National Lawyers Guild, âa second embargoâ of Cuba â âone that would be very difficult to dismantle in the future.â
Trump may give current U.S. citizens standing to sue in U.S. courts even if they were Cuban citizens when the Cuban government nationalized their property after the 1959 Revolution. They would be able to bring lawsuits against U.S. and foreign companies that allegedly profit from the nationalized properties.
In accordance with international law, the Cuban government had offered compensation to U.S. nationals for the taking of their property, as I explain below. If Trump permits myriad new lawsuits to proceed, it would unleash a tsunami of litigation that would harm U.S. companies and punish the Cuban people even more.
For 59 years, the United States has maintained a cruel embargo against Cuba.
âThe embargo on Cuba is the most comprehensive set of U.S. sanctions on any country, including the other countries designated by the U.S. government to be state sponsors of terrorism â Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria,â according to the U.S. government.
In 1960, the Eisenhower administration declared a partial embargo on trade with Cuba in an attempt to pressure Cuba to change its form of government. The embargo was prompted by a secret State Department memorandum that proposed âa line of action which, while as adroit and inconspicuous as possible, makes the greatest inroads in denying money and supplies to Cuba, to decrease monetary and real wages, to bring about hunger, desperation and overthrow of government.â
This type of action is illegal under international law, according to Idriss Jazairy, the U.N. special rapporteur concerned with the negative impact of sanctions.
âCoercion, whether military or economic, must never be used to seek a change in government in a sovereign state,â said Jazairy. âThe use of sanctions by outside powers to overthrow an elected government is in violation of all norms of international law.â
That includes the Charter of the Organization of American States and the Charter of Economic Rights and Duties of States.
Nonetheless, John F. Kennedy expanded the embargo in 1962 and every U.S. president since has continued it, hurting the Cuban people, but not succeeding in overthrowing Cubaâs government.
In 1996, Bill Clinton signed the Helms-Burton Act, which codified the embargo into law so that no president could unilaterally lift the sanctions against Cuba. Although Barack Obama took some limited steps toward normalization of relations between the United States and Cuba, Helms-Burton would have prevented him from lifting the embargo.

Stunning video shows how the vaccine industry has turned the measles, an ordinary, non-fatal infection like chicken pox, into a hyperventilated national emergency
When you hear the word âmeasles,â what is your first reaction? No one would blame you for panicking and keeping your distance from those who have the disease, given all the hype over it, but what exactly is so bad about it? Do you even know?
Contrast this with your gut reaction to chicken pox. Many of us endured this in our childhood, and while it certainly wasnât fun, outbreaks at school didnât make news headlines and send people into mass hysteria.
While the two illnesses arenât exactly the same, they have a lot more in common than you might think. In fact, measles used to be a pretty common medical issue that might have been annoying but certainly wasnât life-threatening, much like chicken pox. It typically starts with a high fever and is marked by a cough, red eyes, a runny nose, and those tiny red spots you might already be familiar with that start at the head before spreading to cover the whole body. Like many common illnesses, it can lead to pneumonia and other serious problems in rare cases. But if the scientific evidence isnât swaying enough for you, a look at how it was addressed in the pop culture of the time can be very telling.
The David Knight Show recently took a look at some video clips from the 1950s and 1960s illustrating how nonchalant people were about the illness at the time.
Take the example of an episode of The Donna Reed Show from the 1950s. âItâs not serious,â the doctor says upon diagnosing her son with measles. âIf your boy takes it easy, heâll be as good as new in a few days. Heâs only got measles.â His father even says, âItâs kid stuff, theyâll laugh at us.â
The Flintstones was equally blasĂŠ about it in an episode from the 1960s. Fred comes home to find that his wife Wilma and her friend Betty had broken out in measles, preventing them from appearing in a TV bake-off.
âDonât worry, Fred, measles donât hurt,â his pal Barney says. The biggest concern of all involved is the womenâs inability to appear in the bake-off; no one is worried that their lives are in jeopardy. In fact, Fred and Barney dress up as women and take their place in hopes of salvaging their chance at the bake-offâs $10,000 prize.

The âRussian botsâ that weren't: Twitter backtracks on troll claims, media ignores updated info
witter quietly revised its public database of âRussian botâ accounts earlier this month, removing 228 accounts it previously said were âconnected to Russiaââ but the admission has gone almost completely unnoticed by the media.
Bloomberg reported on the âburst of activityâ from the bot accounts and claimed that Russia's âsocial-media trolling operationâ was âstepping up its Twitter presence to new heights.â
Fast-forward to 2019 and Twitter has removed 228 of these accounts from the database, saying they had âinitially misidentifiedâ them as being linked to Russia, but nobody in the media seems to have noticed.
In fact, Bloomberg is the only major US outlet which bothered to correct the story to reflect reality, admitting that Twitterâs changes to the dataset âinvalidate central portionsâ of its original report and that there was âno surgeâ in this so-called Russian bot activity at the time in question. Oops!
Pivot to Venezuela!
Interestingly, the highlighted accounts have now been linked to Venezuela, another country the US government just so happens to have bad blood with.
In a tweet, Twitterâs âhead of site integrityâ Yoel Roth said that the company can now âmore confidently associateâ the 228 accounts with Venezuela. Rothâs short tweet thread on the misidentification was met with little interest receiving only a few retweets and no attention from media figures who supposedly actively follow any and all news remotely related to Russian activity online.

India Pakistan notable from today it's a cabal op to start WW3
At Least 3 Pakistan's Warplanes Entered Indian Part of Kashmir - Reports
On Tuesday, India bombed terrorist infrastructure in Kashmir after violating Pakistan's airspace. The tense bilateral relations have further escalated after February's terrorist attack, which killed 45 Indian paramilitary officers.
Reuters reported, citing an Indian official that at least three Pakistan's combat aircraft had entered the airspace over the Indian part of Kashmir. According to AFP, citing sources and local media, Pakistan's fighter jets were forced back over the de facto border of the disputed territory after the violation of the airspace.
Neither the Indian, not Pakistan's defence officials have confirmed the claim so far.
The statement comes just a day after India carried out an aerial operation, targeting a camp of the Jaish-e-Mohammad terrorist group, which claimed responsibility for the deadly terrorist attack against the Indian security convoy on February 14. The camp was situated in the Pakistani-controlled part of the Kashmir region, while Islamabad accused New Delhi of violating its airspace.
While India stressed that it conducted the raid due to "Pakistan's inability to take action to destroy terrorist infrastructure," the Pakistani National Security Council reportedly rejected the claims that the airstrike targeted terrorists. At the same time, Pakistan's Foreign Ministry stated that it considers the Indian move as an "act of aggression," which threatens regional security and vowed response.
After February's terrorist attack, which killed 45 Indian paramilitary officers, the traditionally strained relations between India and Pakistan deteriorated even further as India blamed Pakistan for harboring the terrorists responsible for the attack and accused Islamabad of having a "direct hand" in the incident.
Pakistan in turn, rejected the allegations of its involvement in the attack and said that this was India's strategy to divert international attention from alleged human rights violations in the Kashmir region.
