April 4, 2010  Whether you believe that Fidel Castro is dead or alive, you of course know the truth that everything from Cuba is dishonest, dysfunctional and intended purposefully to lie to you and manipulate one and all until they are co addicts of Castro’s ridiculous disgrace, called the gulags of Cuba. It is the startling and direct outcome of what happens to a people under a seriously manipulative man who backs up his phobias and twisted mind’s eye with real bullets, real dirt holes in the ground for prisons and firing squads. Cubans are afraid and have no where to go. Ecuadoreans state that Fidel Castro is fabulous because….Rafael Correa tells them so and because Castro helps the poor. Castro games the poor and uses them as cannon fodder for his personal, manipulative hatreds.
 
As it is, Counterpunch ran this 2008 prose, ostensibly written by Castro about Rafael Correa. Whether he did or he did not matters nothing- the official Cuban propaganda mill wants you to believe that Castro penned this. No retractions and no denials of authorship have ever been issued. Castro’s Cuba is quick to rip apart anything they believe taints their horrifying monster Fidel so you should know that after two years, the urban propaganda mill never once claimed this was not their official party line of Rafael Correa.
 
Why is this of interest? Because Rafael Correa is a direct allied actor of Fidel Castro’s incompetent but evil communism in Ecuador. Correa has pledged over and over that he will convert Ecuador in to a replica of Castro’s Cuba and he is well past the mid mark and well on his way to the stench of depravity that is Castro’s Cuba where all are slaves and no one has any freedom at all. All open media and free speech is denied. Goods and services are spotty at best and almost none can even afford a cell phone let alone run the risk of arrest for using it even if they could get line connections. The Cuban people have no money to pay for phones, paper, pencil, food and on and on. Cuba is not paradise for the communists of the world. It is a hell hole of their own making.
 
But Castro writes, or his politburo writes, that Correa told Castro that Ecuador’s “oil policies verged on treason against the nation.” Moreover, Castro states that he has been watching and monitoring all that Correa does and that he, Castro states that Cuba’s services are not free- Castro needs money- and even his doctors are not free. Fidel does mention that pro Cuba former president Palacio did indeed start the Cuban doctor brigades in Ecuador which have soared to tens of thousands now doing what paid Cuban spies do best: spy on Ecuadoreans for the Cuban-Chavez-Correa ALBA gang of loons. These Cubans, paid with yours and others tax dollars, watch your steps and your speech. They are teamed with local police and the Ecuadorean military to report if any do not like Castro’s Correa. This is expanded of course in Venezuela even as the Iranian cartels come flooding in to Ecuador for more financial crimes, also called protected money laundering under the fake claim of freedom of religion as provided by the fake fat goddess Pachamama who protects all liars, drug dealers and New Age loonies, also called Correa’s Pink Curtain which operates on a merit system for perverts and cartel criminals.
 
Castro goes on to explain his post mortem death of the murderous, evil Raul Reyes, “Imperialism has just committed a monstrous crime in Ecuador. Deadly bombs were dropped in the early morning hours on a group of men and women who, almost without exception, were asleep. That has been deduced by all the official reports right from the beginning. Any concrete accusations against that group of human beings do not justify that action.”   Castro, who sells his intel services to any nation stupid enough, like Ecuador to buy them, either has pathetically stupid intel or else he is a blatant liar. In this case, Castro is both. Indeed on March 1, 2008 the Raul Reyes party-goers near the border of Colombia celebrated their new found friends at Reyes’s intel plantation with an orgy. They were not asleep. They were, as the Correa government and FARC actors advertised, going happily along their way in the jungle, protected and guided thereto by Correa’s own teams, to – what did the invitations to this jungle orgy advertise-? Porn movies, games, and on and on. To the inept, such a high life can be a recruiting tool. The Muslims do this very well by suggesting happy followers hold polygamous lives while engaging in free sex whenever, however because….they are Holy Warriors. One can only- with even the smallest pea brain- imagine that this orgy staged by Reyes in Ecuador supposedly to secure more FARC fans in the Ecuadorean jungle at his FARC intel plantation, offered these idiots the main product of the FARC: lots of Marxist-communist drugs, booze and whatever else with gay abandon. The Reyes intel nerve center of the FARC was factually known to be randomly staging assaults across the border in to Colombia, killing scores and generally undergoing clandestine, internecine acts of war on a random basis. And the FARC did all this while protected by the Correa regime.
 
Colombia had every right to take out/take down the FARC intel center and snatch Reyes’s primary computers. The daring raid by Colombia depended on the stupidity and craven drug and sex abuse as promised on the very night. The party goers, rumbling in the jungle, were dazed,  drug induced and narcissistic even as they were roused from their stupidities by loud noises and ran out in to the night, only to fall on their own land mines, also illegal and each with a killing power already banned by all global treaties. But Correa cared nothing that he was taking money from the FARC, aiding and abetting these murderous drug terrorists.
 
As for Correa-Chavez-Castro’s lies that bombs were dropped, even the incompetent pro Correa-Chavez Insulza of the OAS could find no bomb craters, no bomb casings and no bomb destruction. Of course there are no bomb craters. The Colombians raided the camp and took what they wanted: The FARC’s intel nerve center computers. Had bombs been dropped in to the FARC plantation, there would have been no standard issue, cheaply manufactured computers to grab.

And grab they did- as is their right and mandate. And the FARC materials are a road map to the total evil that Chavez, Castro, Correa and Morales protect and defend called the FARC’s money making criminality, now teamed with Russo-Iranean heroin markets and off the books oil speculators.
 
But Fidel Castro and Rafael Correa, like all Ecuadorean mothers, practices the high art of manipulation for a living, believing that addiction to manipulative behaviors is better than actually doing something useful with one’s life except terrorizing one’s family of inner circle with screeching tirades of the manipulative. And so these masters of manipulation lie and lie and lie about their perverse support for narcoterror.
 
Today, Correa is once again a proxy of his communist minders, as he has been all his life. It must feel natural to him. Correa is owned by the Russo-Iranian cartel, currently faced forward under Castro-Chavez. This is not freedom and their mafia owns Ecuador by the short curlies now. Ecuador needs a unity of purpose to rid this evil. No one seems to care because, as their Andean mothers do teach them, we are all addicts to manipulators. We of course reject this canard.
 
As for Correa, one fine day a biography of this idiot may yet be penned. We hope so and soon. It cannot be factual enough for the facts about Correa are as lurid as he is. To this must be included a whole family history of la madre de Correa- her support for her Shining Path- FARC aligned communist agent husband who did time in the USA for simple drug dealing when the entire crimes of his person were deified in to some victimhood. And Correa’s mother lived off of whose money and whose largesse inside the USA, some say California, until recently- so the myths tell us, she returned to help hide her son Rafael’s marriage in name only, supposedly to act as the grandmother to her grandchildren. Of course she is only doing what all Ecuadorean grandparents do today: lying about their incompetent children who scam off of real life adults and are liars- adolescents. This if great for the mothers and grandmothers because, as they explain, this keeps them very busy, justifying their role as parents for another 30 years when their own children of course should grow up and be adults. But no adults are bred or raised in Ecuador anymore. They are all- all of them- adult children of addicts, addicts to manipulative living. And Correa’s mother is a prime example of this pathological disease. Correa’s mother should be included for her life story- her travels and her criminality. Some report that la madre de Correa lived openly with a certain Sr. Chamba in Guayaquil while la padre de Correa cooled his heels in a New Orleans penal facility before the military government of Ecuador demanded that he be returned to Ecuador, pledging to retain him in prison as due for his crimes, only to break their vow to the USA and release this communist agent promptly. We cannot credence rumors but we do know that whole chunks of Correa’s life story is blacked out. There are scores who could state the facts. We suggest that it is time for truth tellers to stand up. The only thing they have to fear is their own self-induced manipulative fears, all of which are detailed by their happy wives and mothers as their best application of man’s honor….to run away. This fraudulent purpose of being and living la vida manipulativa is disgusting and is no religion at all. This psychosis mirrors Correa’s psychotic growth. Correa is no man and neither are you if you keep pretending that the dishonorable Correa is your best role model. Just study Correa’s real life history.

And so one is smarter to conclude that la padre de Correa was of course assassinated by his own KGB style handlers post US capture as was de rigeur in those Communist-paid Allende tainted years. To be sure, there is more than enough probable cause to presume that Rafael Correa’s own father was killed off, as were so many “compromised” agents of the Cuban- Russian KGB, by his own handlers who feared he may turn evidence against their criminality. But la famille de Correa, long used to lying their way across fake marriages in name only and taking what they want when they want it like all Ecuadorean narcissists, want you to pretend that their marriages and role as family exemplars is sacrosanct. And Correa delivers his physically short, swift sword to all who dare to question his lies.
 
For our part, we remind that when one has no facts, one screeches for “diplomacy.” For disagree with this ploy. Diplomacy is a high art- a skill that only succeeds based on trust and the facts. Correa’s entire life has been committed to the false face he presents, always lurking, always never honest. There can be no diplomacy without trust. With no trust, there is no justice- only the manipulative.
 
As the second article below from Congressman Franks states, man up. Learn from the Israelis and never, ever willingly walk in to the holocaust fires again.

The Raid on Ecuador
Underestimating Rafael Correa
By FIDEL CASTRO      published at courterpuch.org

I remember when Rafael Correa visited us, months before the electoral campaign when he was thinking of running as a candidate for the Presidency of Ecuador. He had been the Minister of the Economy in the government of Alfredo Palacio, a surgeon with professional prestige who had also visited us as Vice President, before becoming the President in an unexpected situation that took place in Ecuador. He had been receptive to a program of ophthalmologic operations that we offered him as a form of cooperation. There were good relations between our two governments.

A while earlier Correa had resigned from the Ministry of the Economy. He was unhappy with what he called administrative corruption instigated by Oxy, a foreign company that explored and invested important sums of money, but was holding on to four out of every five barrels of oil that it extracted. He didn't talk about nationalization, but about taxing them heavily; these taxes would be assigned in advance to specific social investments. He had already approved the measures and a judge had declared them to be valid.
Since the word "nationalize" had not been mentioned, I thought he felt apprehensive about the concept. It didn't surprise me because he had graduated as an economist with much acclaim from a well-known U.S. university. I didn't bother getting into much depth; I bombarded him with questions from the arsenal accumulated in the struggle against the Latin American foreign debt in 1985 and of Cuba's own experience.

There are high-risk investments that use sophisticated technology and that no small nation like Cuba or Ecuador could take on.
Since this was already in 2006 and we were determined to promote the energy revolution, --ours was the first country on the planet to proclaim this as a vital issue for humankind-- I had dealt with the subject particularly emphatically. But I halted, as I understood one of his reasons.

I related to him the conversation I had had a while ago with the president of REPSOL, a Spanish company. This company, associated with other international companies, would undertake an expensive operation to drill the ocean floor, more than 2000 meters down, using sophisticated technology, in Cuba's jurisdictional waters. I asked the head of the Spanish company: How much is an exploratory well worth? I ask you this because we would like to participate, even if it is for one percent of the total cost and we would like to know what you want to do with our oil.

Correa, for his part, had told me that for every one hundred dollars taken out by the companies, only twenty remained in the country; it didn't even get into the budget, he said; it was left in a separate fund for just about anything other than improving the living conditions of the people.

I abolished the fund, he told me, and directed 40 percent towards education and health, technological and highway development, and the rest towards buying back the debt if the price was favorable, and if not, investing it in something more useful. Before, every year we had to buy a portion of that debt which was becoming more expensive.

In the case of Ecuador he added oil policies verged on treason against the country. Why do they do it? I asked him. Is it because they are afraid of the Yankees or due to unbearable pressure? He answered: If they have a Minister of the Economy who tells them privatization would improve efficiency, you can just imagine. I didn't do that.

I encourage him to go on and he calmly explains. The foreign company Oxy is one that has broken its contract and according to Ecuadorian law it requires an expiration date. It means that the oil field operated by this company must go over to the State, but because of Yankee pressure the government does not dare to occupy it; a situation is created which is not contemplated by the legislation. The law just states that an expiration date must be set, and nothing more. The judge at the court of first instance at that moment was the president of PETROECUADOR and he made it happen. I was a member of PETROECUADOR and they called an emergency meeting to expel him from his position. I didn't attend and they couldn't fire him. The judge declared the expiration date.
What did the Yankees want? I asked him. They wanted a fine, he quickly replied. Listening to him I realized that I had underestimated him.

I was in a hurry because of a great number of commitments. I invited him to sit in on a meeting with a large group of highly qualified Cuban professionals who were leaving for Bolivia to be part of the Medical Brigade; it had staff for more than 30 hospitals including 19 surgical positions that could do more than 130 thousand ophthalmologic operations per year; all in the manner of free cooperation. Ecuador possesses three similar centers with six ophthalmologic positions.

Dinner with the Ecuadorian economist took place into the morning hours of February 9, 2006. There were scarcely any view points that I didn't cover. I even spoke to him about the very harmful mercury that modern industry scatters throughout the planet's oceans. Consumerism was of course a subject that I emphasized; the high cost of the kilowatt/hour in the thermoelectric plants; the differences between socialist and communist forms of distribution, the role of money, the trillions spent on advertising which people had no choice but to pay for in the prices of goods, and the studies made by university social brigades who discovered, among the 500 thousand families in the capital, the number of elderly folk lived alone. I explained the stage of university courses for all that we were involved in.

We became friends even though he perhaps received the impression that I was self-sufficient. If that happened, it was truly not my intention.

Since that time I have observed his every step: the electoral process, focusing on the concrete problems of Ecuadorians and the people's victory over the oligarchy.

In the history of our peoples there are many things that bring us together. Sucre was always a highly admired figure, along with The Liberator Bolivar; as Marti said, what he hasn't done in America remains to be done, and as Neruda exclaimed, Bolivar awakens every hundred years.

Imperialism has just committed a monstrous crime in Ecuador. Deadly bombs were dropped in the early morning hours on a group of men and women who, almost without exception, were asleep. That has been deduced by all the official reports right from the beginning. Any concrete accusations against that group of human beings do not justify that action. They were Yankee bombs, guided by Yankee satellites.

Absolutely no one has the right to kill in cold blood. If we accept that imperial method of warfare and barbarism, Yankee bombs directed by satellites could fall on any group of Latin American men and women, in the territory of any country, war or no war. The fact that this happened on undisputed Ecuadorian territory is an aggravating circumstance.

We are not an enemy of Colombia. Previous reflections and exchanges demonstrate how much of an effort we have made, both the current President of the Council of State of Cuba and I, to abide by a declared policy of principles and peace, proclaimed years ago in our relations with the rest of the Latin American states.

Today, with everything at risk, we have not been transformed into belligerent people. We are determined supporters of that unity among peoples which Marti named Our America.

If we keep quiet we shall become accomplices. Today they would like to have our friend, the economist and President of Ecuador Rafael Correa, seated in the dock; this is something we couldn't even conceive that morning of February 9, 2006. At that time it seemed that my imagination was capable of embracing all kinds of dreams and risks, but never anything like what has occurred in the early morning of Saturday March 1, 2008.

Correa has in his hands the few survivors and the rest of the bodies. The two which are missing prove that Ecuadorian territory was occupied by troops that crossed the border. Now he can cry out like Emile Zola: J'accuse!

Here is US Congressman Trent Franks with a special Easter-Passover message about Correa’s criminal allies- the terror regime of Venezuela-Russo-Iraneans:
 
 
Rep. Trent Franks: This time, Israel will not walk into the ovens
 
April 2, 2010
A Jewish author, Primo Levi, was once asked what he had learned from the Holocaust. He replied, “When a man with a gun says he’s going to kill you - believe him.”

At this moment, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a man who, in the same breath, both denies the Holocaust ever occurred, and then threatens to make it happen again, is arrogantly holding a gun with which he vows to wipe the state of Israel off the map.

But where is the Obama Administration?

Israel remains the truest friend America has in this world, and our two nations need each other now as much as we ever have; because a nuclear Iran represents a threat to the paradigm of freedom for the entire world. It also represents a truly fundamental, existential threat to the state of Israel.

Yet, in recent days, Israel has received more open rebuke from the Obama administration for plans to build houses in Jerusalem than Iran has received for building a secret uranium enrichment facility to build nuclear weapons that would threaten the entire world.
Israel's enemies and ours see such open criticism as a weakening of the Israeli-American alliance, and an opportunity to boldly advance violence against Israel and the hegemony of our common enemies in the Middle East— most notably, Iran.

With each well documented new discovery by the International Atomic Energy Agency over the last several years, Iran has dramatically shifted its stories about its uranium enrichment efforts. In the beginning it had claimed it had no centrifuge program at all.

When we discovered Iran had its first operational centrifuges (fewer than 150 in back 2005), I began calling for Iran to be referred to the U.N. Security Council because it was becoming obvious to reasonable and unbiased observers that it was Iran's true intent to ultimately develop nuclear weapons. That was five years ago.

Today, the Iranian program includes over 8,000 centrifuges. A total of only 3,000 centrifuges is the commonly accepted figure for a nuclear enrichment program that can be used as a platform for a full industrial-scale program capable of churning out enough enriched uranium for dozens of nuclear weapons.

Iran has also begun to enrich uranium to 20 percent, which is four times the amount necessary for peaceful domestic energy production. It also means that they are 70% of the way to weapons grade uranium capable of fueling nuclear warheads.
The regime has built underground enrichment facilities at Natanz and the newly discovered secret underground facility at Qom, and they continue to test medium- and long-range ballistic missiles that could be used to deliver a nuclear payload.

The IAEA reports that Iran has already manufactured enough uranium hexafluoride to ultimately build at least 20 nuclear warheads.  It has also been reported that Iran has now experimented with polonium. Polonium is a radioactive isotope with only one known purpose on earth: to trigger a nuclear explosion.

This overwhelming evidence, along with Iran's languishing economy and literally centuries' worth of natural gas reserves, makes Iran's claim that it seeks nuclear capability solely for peaceful purposes ridiculous beyond my ability to express.

Iran is the world's largest state sponsor of terrorism and continues brazenly to provide support to its proxies, including Hamas, Hezbollah, and other jihadist terror groups. It should send a chill down our spines to consider that the same willingness Iran has demonstrated to proliferate missile technology to its terrorist proxies would undoubtedly also become a willingness to proliferate nuclear weapons technology to terrorists.

Osama bin Laden has called it a religious duty for al-Qaida to acquire nuclear weapons. 

Admiral Mike Mullen, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, has stated, "My worst nightmare is terrorists with nuclear weapons. Not only do I know they are trying to get them, but I know they will use them."

This is indeed the greatest danger of all. If Iran steps over the nuclear threshold, rogue regimes and terrorists the world over will have access to these monstrous weapons.  No wonder the nation of Israel is concerned.

Israeli Prime Minister Golda Meir said many years ago: “In our long war with the Arabs, Israel has always had a secret weapon: No alternative.”

Today, that reality remains unchanged for the tiny nation that could fit into my congressional district twice.  Israel has very few options and no margin for error. Israel understands that Iran is currently ruled by a regime whose present leaders believe that Armageddon is a good thing, and that it is God’s will for them to annihilate America and Israel.

A responsible Israeli leader facing such a mortal threat from a nuclear armed terrorist state must and will do whatever is necessary to defend his people. Israel will not walk silently into the gas chambers again.

The choice before Israel and the free world is no longer one between a world as it is now, or the way the world might be after a military strike to prevent Iran from gaining nuclear weapons. Rather, our ultimate choice now is between what the world will be like after a preventative strike on Iran, or what the world will be like after Iran gains nuclear weapons.

If and when the people of Israel find themselves with no time left and no choice but to defend themselves by taking preemptive military action to prevent Iran from gaining nuclear weapons, the Obama administration will owe an apology to the whole world for failing to act, but especially to Israel for leaving them with no choice but to act on behalf of all of us.

America and the Western world will then have a moral responsibility to stand with Israel in whatever follows.

And now… ask yourself: who do you stand with? The slimy, dishonest Correa communists or men of real purpose?  What have Correa-Chavez done to Ecuador viz the Russian mafia and Iranian terrorists? The short term joys of Ivonne a Baki and her Muslim banking family of and for the underbelly of moving dirty monies around, as with her paid support for the criminal Stanford selling scams, must be analyzed for facts lest rumors of disgrace or innocence succeed. The facts are first important to replace rumors. And yet….you ask for no facts. Why is that? What is your moral responsibility?
 
You can also ask yourself- did Congressman Franks lie? You can ask ambassador Heather Hodges if this elected official is a liar. Her answer should be enlightening. Franks is no liar and there is nothing dishonest in his text at all. Or….you can do what all good Ecuadoreans are told to do: hate the Republican Party of the USA and hate anyone or anything which speaks truth to power. Even Correa instructs all Ecuadoreans to hate and despise the world’s most honorable newspaper, The Wall Street Journal. This is a self defeating agenda. The world needs more open media- not less. The world needs more truth tellers and free speech- not less. The U.S. democratic party- currently agreeing with Correa that solid media must end, is also breaking all bonds of trust among its own, believing that their sole words are the only message for mankind. This gets them in to trouble fast. Iran has no free speech and no open media. Correa co owns Iranian state media lies for money.  TELESUR runs these lies 24/7.

Iran is pointing, thanks to LuLa, Chavez, Castro, Correa and all global vermin- a gun at you. Iran wants- demands- that all of Western Civilization be destroyed- physically and spiritually. As Primo Levi stated, when a man with a gun says he’s going to kill you - believe him.”

Now – what are you going to do about it?  Do you now continue to lie to yourself that your enabling of these manipulators gifts you peace when you have no peace and you sure have no integrity for acclaiming the false when you know the dysfunction is a sickness. Will you run and hide?

Do you walk in to the fire or start walking with decency and the truth?
