      XPost: alt.politics.newt.grinch, alt.politics.org.fbi, alt.politics.republican       XPost: soc.culture.british, soc.culture.canada, soc.culture.cuba       XPost: soc.culture.italian, soc.culture.spain, soc.culture.usa       From: pedro1940@progression.net              New Book Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Dictator by Humberto Fontoya       Fidel Castro: terrorist, murderer -- and still a potent enemy of the United       States       What liberal apologists want you to forget about the dictator next door        Printer Friendly Version       Hollywood and the liberal elite fawn over him. Journalists have been suckers       for him for decades (Dan Rather called him "Cuba's own Elvis!"). He has       outsmarted and outmaneuvered American intelligence too many times to count.       And today, despite the hero-worship he receives from the American Left, he       remains a bloodthirsty dictator and a significant threat to American       security. In Fidel: Hollywood's Favorite Dictator, Humberto Fontova tells       the story of Fidel Castro as it has never been told before -- and as you'll       never hear it from Castro fans like Rather, Jesse Jackson, George McGovern,       Steven Spielberg, Ted Turner, and so many other dupes and fellow       travelers.This eye-opening book tells the whole appalling truth of the mess       that Castro has made of Cuba and the threat he still poses to free men.       Fontova brings you the full, shocking facts about Castro's vile regime and       the poverty and misery it has brought to Cuba - including astounding details       about how Castro has been much worse for Cuba than the Batista regime he       overthrew and has vilified for 45 years. Drawing on a huge wealth of       information, including interviews with former Castro regime officials,       anti-Castro freedom fighters, and Castro's political prisoners, Fontova       details how virtually nothing in the official story of Castro's rise and       reign in Cuba is actually true. He even proves that Fidel Castro's and Che       Guevara's few genuine military victories came not as guerrillas against the       Batista dictatorship, but against anti-Castro freedom fighters -- in a       brutal and cowardly series of massacres. Fontova also tells the real story       of Elian Gonzalez, beyond the media hype and self-righteous posturing of       Cuba and its allies among the American Left. Above all, Fontova demonstrates       that Castro's hatred for the United States burns as hotly as it ever did -       and that the cigar-puffing killer is not above allying with Islamic regimes       to help them strike new and devastating attacks against our nation.Fontova       introduces you to the REAL Castro -- and his huge prison camp called Cuba:              ˇ How Cuba went from the being the nation with the highest per-capita       immigration rate in the Western Hemisphere (yes, higher than the United       States, including the Ellis Island years) to one where 20 per cent of the       population fled              ˇ Shocking but true: Cubans who deliberately injected themselves with       AIDS in order to escape the mania and cruelty of daily life in Cuba              ˇ Castro's undeniable record of brutal racial discrimination -- and the       American black writer who still blithely insists that "there is a direct       correlation between the U.S. civil rights movement and Fidel Castro's       socialist revolution"              ˇ How Castro mourned on 9/11 -- not for the American victims, but because       Islamic terrorists had succeeded in doing what he had tried to do for so       many years              ˇ The black political prisoner who has languished longer in Castro's       dungeons than Nelson Mandela served in South Africa's              ˇ How American rock stars agitated for Castro -- no doubt without knowing       or caring that owning a Beatles or Rolling Stones record in Cuba was a       criminal offense that could dump you in a concentration camp              ˇ The Cuban intelligence defector who reported: "I took part in a meeting       where Fidel Castro himself ordered the creation of companies to be involved       in drug dealing and smuggling"              ˇ How Elian Gonzalez's father had actually applied for a U.S. visa, and       intended to come here to join his son -- until Castro stirred up an       international incident, abetted by a cover-up in the American media              ˇ How Cuba jams our satellite broadcasts into Iran using technology       acquired from China -- which acquired it from the Clinton administration              ˇ The appalling reasons why, despite $110 billion of Soviet aid, Cuba       today is one of the poorest nations on the planet              ˇ How the New York Times ignored mountains of evidence in 1959 when it       portrayed Castro as "a humanist, a man of many ideals, including those of       liberty, democracy, and social justice"              ˇ The untold story of the Cuban Missile Crisis -- and why Castro was a       greater threat to the U.S. than Khruschev              ˇ Che Guevara: the massacres this hero of American liberals perpetrated       in order to cow and terrorize the Cuban people against resistance to the       revolution -- and his cowardly, sniveling death              ˇ How Castro shouted: "Let the Yankees invade! I'll produce 200,000 dead       gringos!" and called America "a vulture preying on humanity!" -- and       promptly received $200 million in U.S. foreign aid              ˇ The CIA's expert on Latin American Communism in 1959: "Castro is not       only not a communist, he's a strong anti-communist fighter. And we're       prepared to share our intelligence with him to help us in our fight"              ˇ The retired Cuban diplomat who warned the United States in 1958: "If       Castro takes over there will be a bloodbath. You people haven't thought this       thing out. When Castro takes over the Communists will run Cuba. I guarantee       it"              ˇ Why one CIA official bitterly remarked, "We put Castro in power"              ˇ Batista's Cuba: although still reviled by American media dupes today,       much more prosperous and free than Castro's Cuba              ˇ The Brazilian President who noted America's treatment by Castro and       sneered: "Those Americans are just like women. They have a masochistic       streak; the more you slap them around, the more you get out of them"              ˇ Extracts from Che Guevara's Motorcycle Diaries not quoted in Robert       Redford's acclaimed film -- such as "Crazy with fury I will stain my rifle       red while slaughtering any enemy that falls in my hands!"              ˇ Why Jimmy Carter's assertion that the sanctions against Cuba are the       most stupid law the U.S. has ever passed is simply idiotic (and damaging to       Cuba's suffering populace)              This book pierces the fog of disinformation that surrounds Castro, exposing       him for the bestial monster and assassin that he is. That and more make       Fidel a crucial book for policymakers and anyone concerned for our continued       safety and freedom as a nation              lavozdecubalibre.com              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
