What PL snipped for obvious reasons without indicating:

You have been unable to refute the fact that your beloved embargo is a
form of genocide under international law. And you continue to refuse
to even comment on -- never mind condemn! -- the murder and torture of
opponents of the Bush regime in its vast network of secret prisons
around the world.

[snipping the same old Nazi-style lies and rationalizations]

As we see here, you are the one who, just like the original Nazis,
supports murder, torture and genocide -- whatever it takes to advance
the interests of your political masters. Again, it is easy to imagine
the reign of terror you would unleash on the Cuba people if you ever
had the chance again.

Bullshit. But thanks for confirming you have no proof that Castro is
directing efforts to get cash in Germany. You just made that up,
didn't you? What a loser!

What PL snipped for all too obvious reasons AGAIN!:

Under international law, the fact that Cubans are finding alternate
suppliers does not let you and your political masters off the hook for
genocide. Article 2c of the UN Genocide Convention states that the
crime of genocide includes, among other things, "deliberately
inflicting on the group conditions of life CALCULATED to bring about
its physical destruction in whole or in part." http://www2.ohchr.org/english/law/ge...

Trade sanctions that -- as Amnesty International reported -- actually
"help deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and
medical technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity"
certainly fall under this definition. No one -- not even YOU, it
seems! -- can deny that such sanctions would the lead to the deaths
and needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups.
Whatever it takes, right, Mr. Lobbyist?

The fact that the death count was kept to a minimum is no excuse.
Under Article 2c, it is not even necessary to prove that a single
death resulted from an act of genocide. It is enough to be able
reasonably to infer that an act was merely CALCULATED to bring about a
population's physical destruction in whole or in part -- as your
beloved embargo most certainly was, notwithstanding ANY amount of food
sold for cash.

And as we see from Amnesty International recent reports (above), and
international condemnation by the UN General Assembly, no is buying
into your self-serving lies and rationalizations (previous posting)
that these sales where blocked for any other reason than pure
politics.

> thanks for again confirming there is no "genocide".
> You claimed Cuba can buy medicines and equipment as easily as Norway if
> it has cash.

Anyone will have difficulties buying medicines and equipment from US-
controlled companies if the regime finds out that the end-users are
Cuban. This bloodthirsty regime even blocked the sale of syringes to
UNICEF when it was discovered they would be used to vaccinate Cuban
children! See:
http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/007/2009/en/540b61a6-d0ec-493b-84c4-372a0b3c5067/amr250072...

And you fully support this, don't you, Mr. Lobbyist? It must really
piss you off that alternative suppliers were eventually found.
Nevertheless, this does not get you off the hook for genocide. It is
clear that these cruel and inhumane sanctions of yours were calculated
to kill Cuban children and other vulnerable groups. Under Article 2c
then, your beloved embargo is indeed a form of genocide. And no amount
US food for cash or any litany of economic woes in Cuba will get you
off the hook either. These are nothing more than rationalizations for
these criminal actions that you fully support.

Again, Amnesty International recently reported (my emphasis):

"Amnesty International urges the US government to lift the nearly five-
decade long economic and trade embargo against Cuba as it is
detrimental to the fulfillment of the economic and social rights of
the Cuban people. It OBSTRUCTS AND CONSTRAINS efforts by the Cuban
government to purchase essential medicines, medical equipment and
supplies, food and agricultural products, construction materials and
access to new technologies.

http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/002/2009/en/e7b1efe4-27f4-4b2c-9a39-23c88749e39e/amr250022...

"The US embargo against Cuba is IMMORAL and should be lifted. It’s
preventing millions of Cubans from benefiting from vital medicines and
medical equipment essential for their health."

"Because of the US embargo, Cuba faces SEVERE RESTRICTIONS in
importing medicines, medical equipment or technologies from the USA or
from any US company abroad. The sanctions also limit other imports to
the island and restrict travel and the transfer of money."

http://www.amnesty.org/en/news-and-updates/report/president-obama-should-take-lead-lifting-embargo-against-cub...

"Amnesty International calls on the US Congress to take, WITHOUT
FURTHER DELAY, the necessary steps towards lifting the economic,
financial and trade embargo against Cuba...

"The UN General Assembly has repeatedly CONDEMNED the US embargo as
contrary to the Charter of the United Nations and international law.
On 29 October 2008 the UN General Assembly passed a resolution
reiterating for the 17th time its call on the USA to end its embargo
against Cuba. That resolution was adopted with 185 votes in favour,
three against and two abstentions. The Inter-American Commission on
Human Rights has also reiterated its position regarding “the impact of
such sanctions on the human rights of the Cuban people and, therefore,
INSISTS THAT THE EMBARGO BE LIFTED.”

"[E]xports of food and agricultural products to Cuba remain regulated
by the Department of Commerce and require a licence for export or re-
export. The export of medicines and medical supplies continues to be
SEVERELY LIMITED....

“The RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THE EMBARGO help to deprive Cuba of vital
access to medicines, new scientific and medical technology, food,
chemical water treatment and electricity.”

http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/007/2009/en/540b61a6-d0ec-493b-84c4-372a0b3c5067/amr250072...

Makes you proud, don't it, Mr. Lobbyist -- all your hard work finally
paying off!

You mean it doesn't explicitly INCLUDE medical services. In the

medicines and equipment. But thanks confirming that you have no proof
that the Haitian government is paying for Cuban medical services. You

STILL desperately grasping at straws, eh, Mr. Lobbyist? When will you
learn?

"Norway will donate 5 million crowns (around 885,000 U.S. dollars) to
fund the mission of Cuban doctors in Haiti" is entirely consistent
with:

“Norway wants to support the lifesaving work Cuban doctors are doing
in Haiti. The money will be used to purchase much needed equipment and
medicines for the Cuban medical personnel."

But thanks for confirming you have no proof that Cuba would only
accept cash donations from Norway so they could use the money for
other purposes. You just made it all up, didn't you? Once again, we
see what a TRULY desperate liar you are, Mr. Lobbyist.

Tell it to judge, Mr. Lobbyist. And don't forget your toothbrush.

Note that the cowardly PL has once again refused to even comment on --
never mind condemn! -- the murder and torture of opponents of the Bush
regime in its vast network of secret prisons around the world. Again,
it is easy to imagine the reign of terror you would unleash on the
Cuban people if you ever had the chance again. Whatever it takes,

[snipping the same old Nazi-style rationalizations]

Despite your best efforts, Cubans have indeed been able to find
alternative sources for much of what they have to import. It must
really piss you off, but in no no way does this get you off the hook
for what amounts to genocide. And you can quit pretending that these
vital imports were blocked by the US regime for anything other purely
political reasons. Amnesty International and others have repeatedly
exposed that self-serving lie. (See below)

suppliers does not let you and your political masters off the hook
for
genocide. Article 2c of the UN Genocide Convention states that the
crime of genocide includes, among other things, "deliberately

Notwithstanding your hysterical screams of denial, Amnesty
International has reported that your beloved embargo "helps deprive
Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical
technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity." No
hypothetical statement, this is the actual result of these cruel and
inhumane sanctions that you have been promoting for years. I will ask
you again: Do you deny that such sanctions would result in the deaths
and needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups? And
please explain how any amount of food for cash or any number of
economic woes in Cuba will somehow "cancel out" these crimes as you
seem to be suggesting.

Anyone, including Norway, will have difficult time purchasing
medicines and equipment from sources controlled by the US regime if it
finds out that the end-user is Cuban.

PL has made absolutely NO progress on his seven -- count 'em, SEVEN --
deadly whoppers here.

Asked about the murder and torture of opponents of the Bush regime in
its vast network of secret prisons around the world, PL has NO
COMMENT. He just snips and runs away.

Amnesty International has reported that PL's beloved embargo "helps
deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical
technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity." Asked
whether he denies that such sanctions would result in the deaths and
needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups, PL has NO
COMMENT. He just snips and runs away.

PL prefers instead to go on and on about US food for cash and Cuba's
various economic woes, both real and imagined. Asked to explain how
any amount of US food for cash or any number of economic woes in Cuba
would morally or legally "cancel out" the above crimes against the
Cuban people, PL has NO COMMENT. He just snips and runs away.

By his cowardly snip-and-run tactics, and his adamant refusal to
address these issues, it seems PL has all but conceded that his
beloved embargo is indeed a form of genocide. He can provide no
effective counter-argument. He just snips and run away. For good
reason!

That takes care of PL's Lies #1 and 3. As for the rest of his lies
here, it seems he is STILL unable to provide a shred of evidence in
support of his outrageous claims. As usual.

No, he didn't. He only showed that an effort was being made to raise
money for the Cuban aid mission in Haiti. But thanks for confirming
you STILL have no proof that Castro is directing efforts to get cash
in Germany. As usual, you just made the whole thing up.

What the cowardly PL snipped for obvious reasons:

Trade sanctions that -- as Amnesty International reported -- actually
"help deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and
medical technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity"
certainly fall under this definition. No one -- not even YOU, it
seems! -- can deny that such sanctions would the lead to the deaths
and needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups.
Whatever it takes, right, Mr. Lobbyist?

The fact that the death count was kept to a minimum is no excuse.
Under Article 2c, it is not even necessary to prove that a single
death resulted from an act of genocide. It is enough to be able
reasonably to infer that an act was merely CALCULATED to bring about a
population's physical destruction in whole or in part -- as your
beloved embargo most certainly was, notwithstanding ANY amount of food
sold for cash. And as we see from Amnesty International recent reports
(above), and international condemnation by the UN General Assembly, no
one is buying into your self-serving lies and rationalizations
(previous posting) that these sales where blocked for any other reason
than pure politics. [...]

Notwithstanding your hysterical screams of denial, Amnesty
International has reported that your beloved embargo "helps deprive
Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical
technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity." No
hypothetical statement, this is the actual result of these cruel and
inhumane sanctions that you have been promoting for years. I will ask
you again: Do you deny that such sanctions would result in the deaths
and needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups? And
please explain how any amount of food for cash or any number of
economic woes in Cuba will somehow "cancel out" these crimes as you
seem to be suggesting.

> and they aren't as shown above.

Yes, they are. But thanks for confirming yet again that even you
cannot deny that such sanctions would the lead to the deaths and
needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups. And thanks
for also confirming even you are unable to explain how any amount of
food for cash or any number of economic woes in Cuba would somehow
"cancel out" these crimes as you seem to be suggesting.


> They are actually allowing the sale of food and medicines: calculated to
> ensure humanitarian supplies can make it to Cuba if Cuba can pay.

As we have seen here, even you cannot explain how this would in any
way "cancel out" the fact that, as Amnesty International recently
reported, your beloved embargo "helps deprive Cuba of vital access to
medicines, new scientific and medical technology, food, chemical water
treatment and electricity." Don't just snip and run away. Address
this issue or concede that these cruel and inhumane sanctions are
indeed a form of genocide.

> No genocide.
> Again, you have exposed your own lies over and over again by failing to
> post even ONE quote from a reputable international organization
> referring to the trade sanctions as "genocide".

Again, AI reported that your beloved embargo "helps deprive Cuba of
vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical technology,
food, chemical water treatment and electricity." And, as we saw here
again, even you cannot deny that such sanctions would cause the deaths
of children and other vulnerable groups. Morally and legally then,
these sanctions amount to a form of genocide. Makes you proud, don't
it, Mr. Lobbyist?


> The Castro regime on the other hand is on Genocide Watch's list.

All we have from GW about Cuba is an unsourced one-liner in a silly
little table at their website. That is sum total of their work on
Cuba! And even that they couldn't get right. What little credibility
they had was was shattered five years ago when, as you have repeatedly
confirmed here, they were forced to removed outrageous claims of
75,000 deaths in Cuba. No mainstream groups like AI or the UN would
support these claims. Five years later, they STILL do not even support
GW much weakened climbdown position. So, it looks like the only
genocide here is, in fact, your beloved beloved embargo! Whatever it
takes, right, Mr. Lobbyist?

What the cowardly PL snipped for all too obvious reasons:

Do you deny that your political masters actually blocked the sale of

Cuban children? See:
http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/007/2009/en/5......

Anyone, including Norway, will have difficult time purchasing
medicines and equipment from sources controlled by the US regime if it
finds out that the end-user is Cuban.

Very evasive, Mr. Lobbyist. It is much easier for Norway to buy
medicines and equipment for their own use. There is only a problem for
them if the US regime discovers that the end-users are Cuban. But
thanks for confirming that even you cannot deny that your political
masters actually blocked the sale of syringes to UNICEF because they
were going to be used to vaccinate Cuban children. Whatever it takes,

You mean it doesn't explicitly INCLUDE medical services. In the
example here (original posting), we see that it doesn't -- just
medicines and equipment.

No, it doesn't. You are just making this all up as you go. As usual.
But thanks for confirming that you have NO PROOF that Haiti is paying

Very evasive, Mr. Lobbyist. But thanks for confirming that you also do

toward funding Cuban medical services -- they are provided free of

The Norwegian press release gave more detail and in no way

No, you didn't. But thanks for confirming once again that you STILL
have NO PROOF that Cuba would only accept cash donations from Norway
so they could use the money for other purposes! Once again, we see
what a truly desperate liar you are, Mr. Lobbyist. Get a life!

Anyway, it seems you have once again been reduced to mindlessly
repeating your failed lies and rationalizations here, desperately
hoping that no one has noticed. If you can't win the debate, you can
at least have the last word, right, Mr. Lobbyist? What a loser!

If you continue to avoid the issues like this (see original notes in
this posting) and can provide no actual proof of your outrageous
claims -- your lies here -- do not expect a reply from on these
matters.

Again, it seems PL has made absolutely NO progress on his seven deadly
whoppers here.

Asked about the murder and torture of opponents of the Bush regime in
its vast network of secret prisons around the world, PL has NO
COMMENT. He just snips and runs away.

Amnesty International has reported that PL's beloved embargo "helps
deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical
technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity." Asked
whether he denies that such sanctions would result in the deaths and
needless suffering of children and other vulnerable groups, PL has NO
COMMENT. He just snips and runs away.

PL prefers instead to go on and on about US food for cash and Cuba's
various economic woes, both real and imagined. Asked to explain how
any amount of US food for cash or any number of economic woes in Cuba
would morally or legally "cancel out" or nullify the above crimes
against the humanity, PL is at a loss. He just snips and runs, and
desperately tries to change the subject.

By his cowardly snip-and-run tactics, and his adamant refusal to
address these issues, it seems PL has all but conceded that his
beloved embargo is indeed a form of genocide. He can provide no
effective counter-argument. He just snips and run away. For good
reason, too!

That takes care of PL's Lies #1 and 3. As for the rest of his lies
here, it seems he is STILL unable to provide a shred of evidence in
support of his outrageous claims. As usual.

What the cowardly PL snipped for all too obvious reasons:

You have been unable to refute the fact that your beloved embargo is a
form of genocide under international law. And you continue to refuse
to even comment on -- never mind condemn! -- the murder and torture of
opponents of the Bush regime in its vast network of secret prisons
around the world.

[snipping PL same old Nazi-style lies and rationalizations]

On the contrary, by your cowardly snipping and running -- by default
-- you have all but conceded that your beloved embargo is indeed a
form of genocide. (See below.) But thanks for confirming you continue
to refuse to even comment on the murder and torture of opponents of
the Bush regime in its vast network of secret prisons around the
world. Again, it is easy to imagine the reign of terror you would
unleash on the Cuban people if you ever had the chance again.

And Norway will have just as much trouble as Cuba buying medical
supplies if the US regime discovers that the end-users are Cuban. As
Amnesty International recently reported, even UNICEF was denied a
shipment syringes when the regime found out that they were to be used
to vaccinate Cuban children. It must piss you off that alternate
suppliers were eventually found, but that in no way does that let you
off the hook for what amounts to genocide.

No, you haven't. You have shown no organizational link whatsoever
between the Cuban government and those raising money for the aid
mission in Haiti -- no proof that any orders or directions were sent
or received, nothing. You were just making it all up. As usual.

What the cowardly PL snipped for obvious reasons:

Trade sanctions that -- as Amnesty International reported -- actually
"help deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and
medical technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity"
certainly fall under this definition. No one -- not even YOU, it
seems! -- can deny that such sanctions would the lead to the deaths

The fact that the death count was kept to a minimum is no excuse.

You mean you snipped and ran away in terror. But thanks for confirming
yet again that even you cannot deny that such sanctions would the
lead to the deaths and needless suffering of children and other
vulnerable groups. And thanks for also confirming even you are unable

[snip]

How? Please explain how murdering one person and sparing another would
somehow "cancel out" or nullify your crime. You can't, of course.

Again, according to Amnesty International, your beloved embargo "helps
deprive Cuba of vital access to medicines, new scientific and medical
technology, food, chemical water treatment and electricity" This
shows the US regime's intent to kill. This is a direct result of US
government policy that shows no signs of changing even in light of
these shocking revelations by AI and others. While I have asked you
many times, it seems even you cannot deny that such sanctions would
cause the deaths and needless suffering of children and other
vulnerable groups! No one can deny it -- not even YOU! No amount of US
food for cash or any other cash sales can possibly nullify this crime
against humanity. You are simply grasping at straws here.

There is no "discrepancy." Readers can see that you are simply making
this up. And as we have seen here, you have absolutely no evidence
that, as you claimed, Cuba would only accept cash donations from
Norway so they could use the money for other purposes. You just made
up the whole thing. Once again, we see what a TRULY desperate liar you
are, Mr. Lobbyist.

Cuba offers payback plan for frozen bank accounts
Tue Mar 2, 2010 12:13pm EST
By Marc Frank

HAVANA, March 2 (Reuters) - Cuba is offering foreign businesses 2
percent annual interest over five years as part of a plan to repay
hundreds of millions of dollars in bank accounts frozen by the
cash-strapped government, diplomatic and business sources said this week.

The government is hoping the interest payments will encourage companies
to keep doing business with import-dependent Cuba while the country
gradually unblocks the frozen accounts. The aim is to do this without
depleting communist-led Cuba's financial reserves.

The offer from the state-run banks consists of monthly payments over
five years at 2 percent interest, with the proviso that payments can be
missed without penalty when money is not available.

"Some people are taking the deal. At least the funds go from a
nonperforming asset at no interest to a performing certificate of
deposit," one western commercial officer said.

"The alternative seems to be nothing. It's an offer you can't refuse,"
he told Reuters.

Cuban banks first informed depositors in November 2008 that they had no
foreign exchange to back up the convertible peso, or CUC, in which many
were doing business.

At the time many traders sold their wares in exchange for CUCs, which
banks honored at an exchange rate of $1.08 per unit, handing over cash
or transferring funds out of the country.

But the banks told them that devastation from three 2008 hurricanes,
wild price swings for imports and the country's main export, nickel, and
the international financial crisis so depleted Cuba of cash that
"temporary" holds had to be placed on their accounts.

FROZEN ACCOUNTS

At one point, in February 2009, hundreds of suppliers, joint ventures
and other companies had an estimated $1 billion frozen in Cuba's banks.

In August 2009, the government released part of the blocked money so
companies would continue selling to the country.

Suppliers since then have sought payments either offshore or with
letters of credit stamped "CL," instructing banks to clear the funds.

Upon receiving Cuba's payment plan offer, some companies have asked for
some of the blocked funds up front, and others for a higher interest
rate, sources said.

But attempts to bargain over the offer are met with a shrug, a "we will
get back to you" and an explanation that it is not up to the banks, said
the sources, all of whom wished to remain anonymous for fear of
retaliation by the government.

"The message is that the suppliers have had a good business with high
margins over the years, and might have them again if they stick it out,"
a European commercial attache said.

The government has provided no information about the number and amounts
of the frozen accounts, but President Raul Castro said in a December
speech, "The amount of blocked funds has been reduced by more than a third."

"We ratify our firm willingness to honor to the last penny our debts, in
relation to the possibilities of the economy," he told the Cuban
National Assembly.

The offer does not extend to joint venture partners and foreign
companies administering hotels and banks. They also have had money
difficulties with the Cuban government, but are said to be working out
their own arrangements to recover funds.

Cuban officials told the National Assembly in December the country's
economic crisis had stabilized, but government spending would be limited
in 2010. (Editing by Jeff Franks and Andrew Hay)

PL has painted himself into yet ANOTHER corner. What does he do? Ah...
a bit of the old snip and run!!! It's an old trick, but it just might
work, right, Mr. Lobbyist? Wrong. Once again, you are going down in
flames here.

Only in your genocidal wet dreams, Mr. Lobbyist.

Here is the link to the posting that has the cowardly PL shitting his
pants and running away in terror:

http://groups.google.ca/group/soc.culture.cuba/msg/1aeeee30e4da...

Pay particular attention to his Lie #3. (No wonder he has resorted to
such desperate tactics here!)


> thanks for showing your despair
>   His Seven Deadly Whoppers
>
> > again:

What the cowardly PL snipped for all too obvious reasons without
indicating:

PL's Seven Deadly Whoppers again:

Lie #1: PL denies his inner Nazi

PL has been unable to refute the fact that his beloved embargo is a
form of genocide under international law. And he continues to refuse
to even comment on -- never mind condemn! -- the murder and torture
of
opponents of the Bush regime in its vast network of secret prisons
around the world. It is easy to imagine the reign of terror you
unleash on the Cuban people if he ever had the chance again.

Lie #2: PL said Castro is directing efforts to get cash in Germany

Of course, PL couldn't provide any proof. It seems he was just making
it all up.

Lie #3: PL denies embargo is genocide because Cuba has found other
suppliers

PL would have you believe that genocidal nature of his beloved embargo
is somehow nullified by a US food-for-cash program or by his litany of
Cuba's economic woes, both real and imagined -- PL's Balance Sheet of
Death. [Please address this issue, Mr. Lobbyist!] That's like saying a
murderer should go free because he spared another person's life! The
fact is, as Amnesty International recently reported (my emphasis):

"Amnesty International urges the US government to lift the nearly
five-
decade long economic and trade embargo against Cuba as it is
detrimental to the fulfillment of the economic and social rights of
the Cuban people. It OBSTRUCTS AND CONSTRAINS efforts by the Cuban
government to purchase essential medicines, medical equipment and
supplies, food and agricultural products, construction materials and
access to new technologies.
http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/002/2009/en/e......

"The US embargo against Cuba is IMMORAL and should be lifted. It’s
preventing millions of Cubans from benefiting from vital medicines
and
medical equipment essential for their health."

"Amnesty International calls on the US Congress to take, WITHOUT
FURTHER DELAY, the necessary steps towards lifting the economic,
financial and trade embargo against Cuba...

"The UN General Assembly has repeatedly CONDEMNED the US embargo as
contrary to the Charter of the United Nations and international law.
On 29 October 2008 the UN General Assembly passed a resolution
reiterating for the 17th time its call on the USA to end its embargo
against Cuba. That resolution was adopted with 185 votes in favour,
three against and two abstentions. The Inter-American Commission on
Human Rights has also reiterated its position regarding “the impact
of
such sanctions on the human rights of the Cuban people and,
therefore,
INSISTS THAT THE EMBARGO BE LIFTED.”

"[E]xports of food and agricultural products to Cuba remain regulated
by the Department of Commerce and require a licence for export or re-
export. The export of medicines and medical supplies continues to be
SEVERELY LIMITED....

“The RESTRICTIONS IMPOSED BY THE EMBARGO help to deprive Cuba of
vital
access to medicines, new scientific and medical technology, food,
chemical water treatment and electricity.”
http://www.amnesty.org/en/library/asset/AMR25/007/2009/en/5......
(PDF format)

Article 2c of the UN Genocide Convention states that the crime of
genocide includes, among other things, "deliberately inflicting on
the
group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical
destruction in whole or in part."
http://www2.ohchr.org/english/law/ge...

Again, as Amnesty International has reported, “The restrictions
imposed by the embargo help to deprive Cuba of vital access to
medicines, new scientific and medical technology, food, chemical
water
treatment and electricity.” These cruel sanctions can, therefore, be
seen as a form of genocide under international law!

Whatever it takes, right, Mr. Lobbyist?

Lie #4: PL claims I said Cuba cannot buy ANY medicines and equipment
from ANY source?

PL couldn't quote me, of course. He was just making it all up

Lie #5: PL claims that the Haitian government is paying Cuban medical
services

PL presents no proof of this. We are simply to take his word for it.

Lie #6: PL says that it is not the US embargo, but only a lack of
cash
that is blocking sales of essential imports

Sadly for PL, groups like Amnesty International and the UN simply
aren't buying into his Nazi-style lies and rationalizations. As we
see
above, AI recently accused his political masters of blocking the
sales
essential imports for purely political reasons. They condemned these
cruel and inhumane sanctions as "immoral" and demanded that they be
lifted "without further delay."

Lie #7: PL insists that Cuba would only accept cash donations from
Norway for their aid mission in Haiti (original posting here).

PL presents no proof, of course. But when has a lack of evidence ever
stopped our intrepid lobbyist here? What a loser!


> exposed as lies in this reply to Dan's identical post.

Not identical, Mr. Lobbyist. See, in particular, your Lie #3 above.
(Did you really think you would get away that easily?) Now, address
the issue there -- this whole notion of your "Balance Sheet of
Death" (above). And no more cowardly snip-and-run! Be a man for once,
and stand up for what you REALLY believe.

For those who are interested, please address the issues here, Mr.
Lobbyist. Enough of your cowardly snip-and-run tactics! By your
persistent evasiveness and your complete lack of evidence to support
ANY of your outrageous claims here, it seems you have indeed all but
conceded that your beloved embargo is indeed a form of genocide, and
that you admit you lied about everything. When will you learn, Mr.
Lobbyist?
