Time to stop giving the benefit of the doubt.

| Part of cocaine shipment seized in Panama |
The Cuban government is
denying that it was involved in the smuggling of tons of cocaine on a ship bound for Turkey with a stop in Holland. The Panamanian government is also giving the dictatorship in Havana
the benefit of the doubt on the cocaine shipment. The only problem is that the Castro regime
lies consistently. The government of Panama is making a mistake.
Consider the following:

| U.S. and Canadian diplomats suffering from unexplained brain injuries. |
At least
24 U.S. diplomats and
14 Canadian diplomats have suffered unexplained brain injuries in Havana, Cuba. Symptoms included "nausea, headaches, nosebleeds, hearing and eye problems." Official Cuban government response: The diplomats are
victims of mass stress and the sounds that they are hearing are
crickets. The Cuban embassy in Washington DC on
September 19, 2017
claimed that “Cuba strictly observes its obligations to protect foreign
diplomats on its soil” is not true. This is another lie. There is a decades-old pattern of
hostility. In 2006, the Miami Herald
reported how a high-ranking member of the U.S. mission found his
mouthwash replaced with urine. In another case, after one diplomat’s
family privately discussed their daughter’s susceptibility to mosquito
bites, “They returned home to find all of their windows open and the
house full of mosquitoes.” American diplomats, like their Canadian
counterparts, have also had pets poisoned while stationed in Cuba. The
types of injuries suffered by diplomats since November 2016
are new, but
Cuba’s outlaw behavior toward them is not.
Raul Castro on March 21, 2016 in the joint
press conference with President Obama
said that there were no political prisoners in Cuba, and if any were identified they would be released
immediately. A list of current
Cuban political prisoners was provided,
but they were not freed.

| Weapons and fighter jets hidden under sacks of sugar. |
In July 2013, Cuban officials were
caught trying to smuggle tons of arms that included: warplanes, missiles, and technology related to
ballistic missile programs hidden under 220,000 bags of sugar to
North Korea and lied about it. This was also in violation of U.N. sanctions.
The Castro regime has sought to smuggle narcotics into the United States
since 1961, and has been
implicated time and time again.
Indictments have
been issued and
documentaries have caught the illicit activities of the dictatorship on film.

| Raul Castro with Aldo Santamaria-Cuadrado |
According to
the UPI in 1982 the following high ranking Cuban officials were indicted by the United States for operatiing a drug ring out of Cuba: Aldo Santamaria-Cuadrado, head of the navy and a member of the Communist
Central Committee; Fernando Ravelo-Renedo, ambassador to Colombia;
Gonzalo Bassols-Suarez, a former staff member at the Cuban embassy in
Colombia; and Rene Rodriguez-Cruz, a Central Committee member and
president of the Cuban Institute of Friendship with the People.
If one still has any doubts then take a look at the role the Castro regime
has played in Venezuela with regards to
narcotics trafficking.
