Chapter –1

Colonel Hispano of The Cuban Army sat at his desk in his office at The Army Barracks and he thought for a while contemplating at the problems he faced with the growing rebel’s situation.

What was going on in Cuba? He started to feel ashamed; as a human being particularly a Cuban human being; on what he had to implement against decent Cubans in his military position. Life was becoming impossible for normal Cubans more and more over the last 50 years in this cancer of a country. Run as an American Puppet state by The Ruling Families and their associates. The whole country was a series of scams and rip offs; just a cash business for the benefit of Swiss Bankers and their clients’ confidential accounts; but the country was called Cuba.

It was very tough and lethal for Cubans especially peasants; if you were not in The Cuban Government’s family gang; very bad things could happen. Something dramatic had to happen here as it did in Russia and elsewhere under gross corruption and oppression. Revolution from the people and peasants would come; it was only a question of when in Cuba. Of course all the rich and ruling classes of people who had caused the peasants of Cuba to revolt against their rapacious rulers; would inevitably ask the question of why? What have we done; to cause us to be treated so badly under these Freedom Fighters; for this ridiculous notion of Freedom and Democracy?

Hispano thought it was almost impossible for normal decent Cubans and their families to survive under this cancer of a Government feathering it’s financial nests; at the expense of decent poor Cubans. Thousands of Cubans had to suffer terrible injustices by death, rape, torture, injury, robbery, fraud, rape, etc lurking around every corner. It was a toss of a cent coin if you got killed, raped, arrested and snatched by police for torture, sex, money, or just killed each day; under the 50 years of increasing tyrannical Cuban Puppet Government. The latest part of which was the Post Second World War Cuban Puppets Governments Regimes. Thousands went missing over the 50 years from the 1900’s; if not hundreds of thousands; martyred to US Government indifference, corruption and bullying tactics.

Now depending on whom you were in the Cuban Government pecking order; there was a licensing system running down from The Government. It could be a very good life or a totally unbearable life of misery and zero rights with death on any street corner; coupled with total exploitation as you hit the bottom of the revenue pyramid.

As a military officer Colonel Hispano despaired at his country; as everything and almost everyone in power in Cuba was linked into some kind of a racket; designed quite often by Members of The Government of Cuba; in conjunction with the American Mafia and their business methods.

The American Puppet Cuban Government, and their coterie of Cuban families and US Mafia Organised Crime Families; ran Cuba via their alleged licensing fees system with American designed rip offs, kick backs. Everything was in a racket for all goods and services that came into Cuba. Or in fact anything that was produced in Cuba. It had worked for 50 years; so why not for 50 years again? Although Colonel Hispano thought we are running out of time fast; I feel it in my guts.

The Cuban Government ran an endemic corrupt administration system for over 50 years; it had to end one day? Although fully financially and politically backed by The US Government; in controlling and subjecting the lives of every soul on the island of Cuba. With US Organised Crime allegedly providing the corruption ideas; in exchange for the freewheeling entertainment’s industry concession in Gambling and associated past times.

Colonel Hispano thought we know The President of The USA had to be re-elected somehow and it needed lots of hard cash. So he guessed does some of the finance maybe came from Cuba? Where the American IRS (Internal Revenue Service) could not audit the books maybe?

The US Presidential Election Campaign cash trail it was alleged by many Cuban peasants; maybe started from the young child prostitute on the Havana streets; paying her licence fees in cash and kind to the Cuban Police. Then through to the Police paying the Military Generals and Government Ministers. They then paid; it was alleged; their country’s contributions into The Re-Elect The President of The USA Financial Machine.

In return it was alleged; they all gained military aid of obsolete US Armed Forces equipment. Which was effective against unarmed oppositions; to operate a free for all cash generation machine and system backed by American Military might and right. With the large Guantanamo Military Base always hovering in the background of calculations to frighten any uprising and revolution of the peasants.

Of course human rights were not permissible for mere Cubans for over half a century; as per the American Bill Of Rights and Constitution. However there again on mainland USA; many dark skinned and poor US Citizens in The Deep South were also denied this basic right until the late 20th Century.

Still Cuba was in the South of many USA states like Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana etc; the Southern States of America where the US Constitution and Bill of Rights was very loosely interpreted. So why should an island 100 miles south of the Uncle Sam Paradise shores; not have the same rights to life and determination of an American family’s aspirations.

No Cuba was run by The US Presidential Administrations via it’s local Cuban Politicians; who were hired hands of The US Government; as a gigantic hedonistic fun fair and theme park, where anything goes including murder of youngsters if you have the cash. Where the themes were cheap sex, sexual deviancy, animal sex, and paedophilia with children of both sexes, gambling, drinking to excess, arranged torture and murder too; providing you could afford this luxury pursuit for the fun. In anything goes CUBA LIBRE; providing you had the cash to afford it.

Colonel Hispano was very annoyed at the way his country was run; but he was powerless to change it; as were a lot of his military colleagues. They had no control over Cuba’s destiny; it was The US Mafia calling the shots with the US Government’s directions to their puppet Cuban Government and coterie. Any Cuban who tried to change the system just disappeared; as had thousands before over 50 years.

The US Mafia; who Cuban peasants could not stomach at any price as they were criminals; set The Entertainment’s Menu and it’s prices in conjunction with the Puppet Cuban Government. With the compliant Cuban Government receiving the entertainment’s licensing fees and commissions; to pay in theory for the infrastructure of public services in Cuba. Well normally to be paid accidentally straight to those Swiss Bankers emporiums in Zurich. For the confidential bank accounts of certain Cuban citizens. They must pay the price; in order to get Their North American Revellers particular tastes in entertainment in anything goes Cuba Libre.

Cuban poor families it was often said had told The Government of Cuba, we don’t want good public services; we want you all to be rich at our expense. Or so the Government maintained by falsified elections. The citizens of Cuba did not want reliable electricity, reliable drinking water mains and taps, reliable sewers for the effluent of normal life and treatment plants, reliable buses and trains to go to and from work and safe reliable roads. Certainly not proper and fair policing to ensure a low crime rate in Cuba. US Organised Crime ran Cuba so don’t be stupid.

Of course not; the Cuban population did not require all these unnecessary expensive trappings and luxuries of North American life styles. So the ruling families of Cuba allegedly diverted any foreign aid and grants plus the cash take from their Cuban rackets; to Swiss bank accounts in the name of The People of Cuba and other Associates.

The Four Horsemen of The Apocalypse - The US President, The US Foreign Secretary, The US Ambassador to Cuba, and the Head of US Intelligence agreed to unfettered hedonism in Cuba; and gave The Cuban Puppet Government their full confidence and permission for full cash steam ahead. Don’t let poor diseased democratic protesters (troublemakers) unsteady the ship. Better lots of Dead Cubans than Red Cubans; was the White House’s only message pressed down the line even as far as Tierra del Fuego at the bottom tip of South America in later years. As Uncle Sam in his wisdom knew best for all Cubans and South Americans.

Imports to Cuba had to clear customs and therefore allegedly a cash levy was made. Trucking anything to your destination; was only possible with a friendly trucking company; or licensed by them.

If you wanted to sell your products in Cuba; there was allegedly a licensing retail scheme. Some trouble making people; normally of course the poor and destitute Cubans; who always moaned about anything due to the jealousy at not being involved with the dynamic Cuban economy; may call it a protection racket.

However that was unfair; as it was just bad luck that any company that refused to pay the required trading license; saw it’s property and stock suddenly spontaneously burst into flames in the middle of the night. It was just sheer bad luck too; that the police were busy with the fire brigade at that time on another incident to help you extinguish the flames until your property was totally destroyed. It’s just sheer bad luck in the tropics you know. Colonel Hispano despaired at times for his children’s future in this cancer called Cuba.

Captain Ramirez of a Cuban Police Havana District; knew the country was a cancer; but you had to make the best of a bad job. He was a pragmatic guy and knew he could do what he wanted, when he wanted, how he wanted. Cash was the King for now to afford a good life in Cuba and to pay for a rainy day escape fund from Cuba; when a revolution would happen. It had to happen one day he thought; but let’s try to postpone that day; as the country was a cancer and the peasants would stage an uprising one day. Currently nobody was interested in Cuban peasant’s opinions; just the regular flow of cash, up the line.

His district was his personal fiefdom; to make as much money and have as much fun with as he could. He permitted his men to have some fun too; with particularly sex with young peasant girls abducted at will from the streets. He allowed his men to join in punishment questioning sessions; as giving someone a good thrashing to death was better than sex sometimes. The golden rule was all cash was his job rights; he would distribute the money share-out; and woe betide any Cuban Police men defrauding Captain Ramirez of his rightful dues from his territory. They may well sleep with the fishes before the day was out; officially missing in action killed by these Communist pig rebels.

Ramirez lived in a nice house in Havana and his wife and 5 children. He had the best living that money could provide in Cuba. This was a financial heaven for Ramirez; and long should it last that way. Although he had started to have his doubts; quite serious doubts; as these damn rebels did seem to have the support of the peasants. He thought I could be unlucky and be targeted by these Communist rebels and maybe even killed. What a waste that would be with all his well stuffed with Dollars, bank accounts. Maybe slowly loosing this battle and gaining free Green Cards for unlimited working in the USA was the right prize to grab; but you had to be alive to enjoy the Green Cards those prized assets of America.

He was angry as he thought these Communist rebels could grow; like they had in Russia and China maybe? He thought it had to be The Soviet Union behind all the unrest of these pig ignorant peasants; and giving them advice and weapons. They had accepted their lot for 50 plus years until recently. Yes it had to be The Soviet Union; trying to spread this idiocy of Freedom and Democracy for pig ignorant uneducated peasants. Anyway he was not going to loose his life fighting too hard for this Cuban Government of fraudsters and crooks.

Captain Ramirez had started his career as a basic policeman and had hauled himself up the hierarchy by knifing his colleagues in the back on alleged scandals; and by obtaining whores for his bosses and then blackmailing them on promotions; or their wives would get the photographs. He had been very successful. Everyone in the Cuban Police knew you did not fool around with Captain Ramirez; well only once; or you would regret it by sleeping in the sea.

Many times he had abducted young peasant girls for sex with him and his colleagues in the police. He just loved the look in their young eyes when they first saw his rigid manhood that was to be their master; partly fear, partly curiosity, partly joy at it’s size and it’s rigidity. They all cried when received a man for the first time; as that is the way of the world; and then grew to love men’s manhood’s as slaves to them for their pleasure and joy; plus good money.

They were all born whores he thought and he would convert them from young girls to whores; as his personal mission of pleasure in life.

He had now reached the dizzy heights of controlling a sizeable police district of Havana; and this was his own personal fiefdom; to make as much money from as he could. That was the way of life in rotten to the core Cuba; that was like an open cancer.

Nobody was interested in what he did for public service; but only in how much cash he could generate for them. You know how little bugs live on big bugs for mutual compatibility. His job was secure; it just depended on just how much he could pay into central Government as his licence fee for his district; plus a few good whores for special Government parties as the cream on the cake.

He enjoyed his normal week of work; trawling the brothels, gambling clubs, depraved Sado/Machismo clubs, clubs for virgin busting, animal acts clubs with women, homosexual clubs, there was a club for any human vice in Havana. All had to pay their licence fees to him and others; or be closed down as illegal ventures. The licence fees were their only Government decision parameter; in order to operate. This was required, as the police required them for their continued operations. Plus he did enjoy talent spotting for new whores; for the parties that Government officials liked. Captain Ramirez was known as the best fixer of whatever you wanted for dollars in Havana.

Now his police employees needed paying too in cash too; from the licence fees he received. So they could avail themselves of the services of the town; with free whores for police too. He gave them the crumbs from the table as they were easily satisfied. So everyone was happy from The Government to the bottom tier of public employees making the hedonistic world in Havana go round. However the people of Cuba were in revolt at every opportunity they could get. The police never paid for sex in Cuba or Havana; nor allegedly in lots of other towns around the world sadly. Plus allegedly not for a lot of goods as well. These were territorial rights for the police in Havana and some cities of the world.

His wife loved her life in Havana and the social events she went to; as the wife of an important person in Cuba. She never dreamed of the content her husband’s working day; nor was she motivated to think where all the luxury life came from either. Why should she? They were living the Cuban-Havana La Dolce Vita; it was wonderful.

She never travelled outside of Havana as it was too dangerous; to where all these ghastly peasants were. Why should she and her children catch all their nasty diseases and risk kidnapping for extortion monies. Such was the attitude of the Cuban Ruling Classes living in superb luxury in Havana and content to see the peasants of Cuba starve and be driven into death every day by degradation. Or maybe one day to do the unthinkable and to revolt and hold this corrupt Government administration to account one day?

Ramirez had a sweet business operation; and he thought I hope this will continue forever; he had his doubts deep down. It’s lasted 50 years; surely it could not be overthrown in the next few years?

Businessmen in Cuba soon learned that you had to support; well at least work with without moaning and pay your licence fees on time; with The Cuban Government and Regime. There were public elections in The USA to be financed by many people in America but why not from Cuba also? As they were protected by The USA; so you must be a part of the re-elect The President of The USA Campaign; by paying your licence fees on time with no adverse comments.

Democracy and Public elections are too important to be dragged down by negative comments from dying, killed, tortured, and diseased people in another country like Cuba. If they just can’t hack it in a dynamic economy based on American Tourism; then the Cuban peasants deserved to be poor and their women to be whores for money. That was the American Business Model exported by The USA as far as it could be around the world.

This distorted American Foreign Policy Model of backing anti-democracy military dictators with a never ending supply of free arms etc; to take over power and given America’s protection; if The United Nations ever complained. This was very successful and The USA had exported it all the way down through Central America to the tip of South America at Tierra Del Fuego’s tempestuous stormy coasts. Even later displacing by military takeovers an elected democratically legal Government and their Heads of State.

The Washington-DC political maxim was; anyone who criticised America must be a Red (Communist). How totally absurd. The Presidents’ had decreed there were only Dead Reds South of Texas; and dead men tell no tales to cause trouble do they? If you were a critic of any American policy; then you were a Red per se weren’t you? As that kept things simple in The American voters minds; constantly brainwashed by right wing authoritative propaganda by The Presidential Administration and published everyday by an ultra right wing US Press against human rights and democratic accountability outside of the USA.

What a cheek The American Government thought; to get gullible uneducated peasants and unsettle their lives; plus get them accidentally killed and tortured; by getting involved with politics. These Communists should be ashamed of themselves. When the peasants should be gainfully employed working for slave wages 12 hours a day in the sugar, cotton, wheat and other crops fields for the good of Cuba’s economy; and not getting involved in politics. That was the industrious American Business Model that Washington-DC wanted to see adhered to.

A working peasant should labour happily in these farming fields to achieve their life’s rewards; and not trouble themselves with politics and human rights and public corruption. As that disrupted the American Model for their Country’s Economy and was un-American. Democracy and politics were for Americans only.

How could you have these peasant workers who knew nothing on how their countries should be run; they were not graduates of Harvard or Yale? No Uncle Sam was always right; otherwise they would end up starving peasants like in The Soviet Union; where The USA exported grain and crops sometimes.

Cuba has had a very intriguing history and it has always been under the shadow of it’s enormous neighbour The United States of America.

Rafael had met Margarita when they were jointly working at the cigar factory, which was owned by a chosen associate of The Ruling Family and the owner’s family.

This business and all businesses in Cuba; was licensed by The Cuban Government for commissions to operate; normally in cash of course.

Captain Ramirez woke up and fondled his nice wife’s assets and they both got up from bed. He thought, I fancy a very nice young virgin girl today; so I don’t want to waste my energy on my standard bill of fare until this evening. He showered and shaved for another day as a police captain in this heat disease rebels ridden country called Cuba. It was not a bad job he had as a Cuban Police District Commander and he could do whatever he wished with no controls from Central Government. They soon made the peasant rubbish they picked up on the street on their raids, sing quickly.

Those very young Cuban virgins were as sweet as a new Havana cigar; once unwrapped too. He would only get that flavour in Cuba; to be savoured slowly to fulfilment. Most of them would come back for more once they were introduced to his pleasurer. All these peasant girls and women were whores at heart and some of them became very good at it; you had to admit. The police never paid for sex; it was like many countries, you pick them up for questioning and they bought their release from the police station; with their female equipment to give police people pleasures.

He
