MAKE COMMUNISM FAIL AGAIN: US TOURISM TO CUBA FALLS BY HALF
Front Page Magazine ^ | May 13, 2018 | Daniel Greenfield

Sad!

The Communist dictatorship is just going to have to go back to its old reliance on Canadian pedophiles.

Cuba is in the top four child sex destinations for Canadians in the Americas. The others are Mexico, Brazil and the Dominican Republic.

In 1978 I spoke with Puerto Rican Nationalist Rodolfo Rivera Rios, who had just voluntarily returned to the U.S. from Havana to face charges for airline hijacking. He said that he quickly became disillusioned and disgusted with the Robotlution soon after arriving in Havana in 1971, when a 12-year-old girl offered to have sex with him in exchange for a succulent sandwich that he bought at a store for foreigners.

Bernie Sanders would like to point out that Fidel loved the children.

"Everybody was totally convinced that Castro was the worst guy in the world," Sanders says in the archival video. "All the Cuban people were going to rise up in rebellion against Fidel Castro. They forgot that he educated their kids, gave them healthcare, totally transformed the society."

Bernie supporters are going to have to make twice as many trips to Cuba. And molest three times as many Cuba children because Communism is failing again.

One of our neighbors idealized Cuba and visited there a year ago on a tour. They thought they would find happy people playing domino’s in cafes and driving cool 50 ‘ s cars. Wrongo. We asked them what the he** they were thinking. It is a loser commie prison. They are very disillusioned and never discuss the trip.

They must have seen the real Cuba rather than the Cuba the media is shown when they do their “reporting”.

They should try Venezuela next.

Fantastic place, just ask Danny Glover or Sean Penn.

A cheap holiday in other people’s misery.

The Sex Pistols had a song about it (and tourists going to East Germany).

“Cubans have a high literacy rate!”

“Yes, they do (and have, prior to 1959) but there is NOTHING TO READ in Cuba.”

One of the ironies of the Cuban revolution, is that one of Castro’s most effective rhetorical devices, was to stoke nationalist resentment, about Westerners making prostitutes of Cuban women along the Malecon in Havana.

After decades of communist rule, prostitution for foreign tourists became an even greater share of GDP, and they were paid relatively much less (and there was a marked increase in prostitution of pre-pubescent children).

Around a decade ago....several European resort chains came into Cuba and built some ‘fine’ resorts away from civilization there, and attracted a fair number of Europeans to fly over. What tended to result from this is that folks would be all happy over the resort, then get bused over to the cities, and find them pretty crapped out. If you stayed at the resort....you were ok.

[Castro] ... totally transformed the society."

That he did. From the roaring gambling, boozy, nightclubbing mecca of Batista to a disease-ridden, poverty-stricken, desperate state where the wrong word could get you murdered in the night.

Yep. That's the standard communist "transformation" all right.

There is nothing to do or see in Cuba. The only reason you might go would be to visit family.

Good news about the tourism decline. I had no idea it was a child sex destination. So much evil on one little island.

I read that Code Pink plans a big trip to Cuba soon.

Now, just for a minute, imagine yourself as a flight attendant on that charter flight.

In the 80s, it was Haiti. It was the time that G.H.W. Bush told Americans, "Don't say that the US is getting AIDS from Haiti."

Castro certainly transformed the society. For the worse! Sanders is such a f***ing idiot.

Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed...

Even cuban cigars are no longer the world standard.

I really want to go there for largemouth bass fishing. In the 40’s-50’s the Mafia introduced largemouths in the rivers, lakes and ponds. Cubans consider them trash fish like I consider carp and catfish. I looked into fishing there and the price is more than prohibitive, as well as all the, regs., and the hassle justdidn’t feel good. Maybe later.

Wow. If I ever knew he said that, it was loooong forgotten. So much to ponder. So many connections. Do you have an original source you can point me to on that comment? If not handy, I’ll research it.

This is OK with the left. The left has no problem with the child sex thing, as long as the regime gives “free” healthcare. Don’t forget, that Cuba quaranteens aids patients. Locks them up. Sequesters them. Not a word about that in the media.
