Can consumerism save Communism?
By Nick Louth
August 12 2008
As Cuba prepares to celebrate the 82nd birthday of Fidel Castro, his brother Raul, who took over as president in 2006, is making some tentative and politically dangerous steps on the road to consumerism.

Official Statement from the Government of Cuba
Cuba defends peace as an indispensable prerequisite for the development of all the peoples of the world.For more than 50 years, our people have been the victim of aggression on the part of U.S. governments, obliging them to invest countless resources and energy. They have been firm and tenacious in the defense of the country’s sovereignty and support the efforts of the UN and its struggle for peace.One part of our territory has been occupied by force for more than 100 years and Cuba has never attempted or will attempt to use violence in order to recover it. Cuba’s foreign policy is known and acknowledged by the international community.At this moment, a crisis is arising that is worrying the peoples, stemming from news of the fighting that has broken out in the Caucasus, on the border with southern Russia.When the USSR disintegrated, South Ossetia, annexed by force by Georgia, with which it shared neither nationality nor culture, retained its status as an autonomous republic with its local authorities and its capital, Tskhinvali. At dawn on August 8, Georgia, in complicity with the U.S. government, launched its forces on South Ossetia in an attempt to occupy the capital, which it publicly announced on the same day that the Olympic Games were inaugurated in Beijing.It is a false claim that Georgia is defending its national sovereignty.The Russian troops were in South Ossetia legally, as a force for guaranteeing the peace, as is known by the international community; they have not committed any illegality.The request for the invaders to withdraw is just, and our government supports it.Cuba, threatened by U.S. forces, cannot, as a matter of principle, agree with a cease-fire without the withdrawal of the invaders. If Cuba were attacked by foreign forces, it would never accept such a cease-fire.

CUBA TRANSITION PROJECT: Islamic Investment in Cuba
(The U.S. government-funded "Cuba Transition Project" at the Universityof Miami presents this report on what it refers to as "direct investment,financing, and aid from autocratic Muslim states" and concludes that thisgives the island's economy a mixture of stability and diversity which theUnited States government obviously regrets. This means Washington has lessleverage with which to pressure Cuba economically. This kind of materialis also in tandem with Washington's military threats against Iran, too.)

Un nuevo proyecto socialista para Cuba
No hay curita de mercuro-cromo que resuelva nuestros problemas, debemos repensar integralmente el proyecto socialista si queremos preservar la Nación y la Revolución Leonel González y Carlos C. D´ “O la república tiene por base el carácter entero de cada uno de sus hijos, el hábito de trabajar con sus manos y pensar por sí propio, el ejercicio integro de sí, el respeto, como de honor de familia, al ejercicio íntegro de los demás, la pasión, en fin, por el decoro del hombre, o la república no vale una lágrima de nuestra mujeres ni una sola gota de sangre de nuestros bravos” José Martí
