Over 100 Cuban artists call for international solidarity: Peoples Dispatch (peoplesdispatch.org)
 

On January 29, President Trump signed an executive order labeling Cuba an “unusual and extraordinary threat” to the United States. The order imposes economic penalties on any country that attempts to deliver oil to the island, which has already been under a US economic and commercial blockade for more than 60 years.

These measures followed a broader US military campaign against Venezuela that further isolated Cuba. The seizure of Venezuelan tankers bound for Cuba as part of a US naval blockade on Venezuelan oil, and the detention of Venezuela’s president and first lady, cut off one of Cuba’s primary fuel providers. According to Cuban President Miguel Díaz-Canel, no fuel has entered the country since December.

The loss of fuel supply has severely disrupted the electricity grid on which schools, transportation, and vital health infrastructure depend.

What exactly do you think the difference between "socialism" and "communism" is, in your view? And how is Cuba not socialist, but communist?

when Islamists in Iran, Afghanistan, or Iraq chant “Death to America,” do they simply mean the dissolution of the United States? Of course not.

No, dumbass. This is just orientalist bullshit, I don't even know what Iraq is doing here, you just don't know what you're talking about.

Khamenei literally said otherwise. It's a normal saying in iran, they even say it about traffic.

At least, that’s how I’ve always interpreted it.

Vibes based analysis, huh? Maybe try reading shit next time, instead of pulling racist bullshit out your ass.

And, yes they have every fucking right to be pissed at Israel and the USA. Why wouldn't they? The USA overthrew their fucking government in the 1953 for BP oil, and because they dared nationalize their oil industry. Israel is committing a genocide and colonizing Palestine, and have been fucking over/invading their neighbors for decades now. Not that your European ass would know shit, of course.
