Terrorist State Designation or Not, Obama Administration Negotiates With Communist Cuba
Posted by: Javier Manjarres on January 20, 2015
Of course Obama negotiates with terrorists.
Why is everyone making such a big deal about Obama “normalizing” relations with Communist Cuba and its murdering, FARC-supporting, Sandinista-Loving, drug-trafficking, partners of Venezuela’s bird-whisperer, and human rights offending Castro brothers?
Incredibly, Cuba is not on the list of countries that are designated as terrorist states, but now The State Department has taken it upon itself to review the countries “terror designation.”
According to Secretary of State John Kerry, the review will last about six months, but regardless of whether Cuba is eventually added to the list of state sponsors of terrorism, he is pushing forward with diplomatic negotiations with Castro, and has even threatened to open an embassy on the island.
What is the big deal, right? After all, Obama has tried to negotiate with other countries that are on the terrorist state list.
We all remember when Obama tried to make nice with Syria shortly after civil war broke out in that country. We have also seen the Obama administration negotiate and fail to broker a deal with Iran over its nuclear arms program.
These two countries, including the Sudan, are all on the U.S. list of state sponsors of terrorism.
Go figure.
Oh, and don’t forget the 5 radical Islamists with American blood on their hands, who President Obama swapped for Army Sgt. Bergdahl, who is said to have deserted his post, and could face a military court martial.
The senior State Department official said Monday the team reviewing Cuba’s status expects to have a decision on whether Cuba should remain on the terror sponsor list before the U.S. and Cuba move ahead with pursuing embassies. Underscoring that the matters are separate, the official even stated that a determination that Cuba should remain on the list would not deter the Obama administration from proceeding with the president’s diplomatic plans.
The official spoke as Assistant Secretary of State for the Western Hemisphere, Roberta Jacobson, prepares to lead a U.S. delegation that will meet with Cuban officials in Havana this week to kick off the normalization process.
The first day of talks on Wednesday will be given over to migration issues, as has been the practice since the U.S.-Cuba migration talks began in 1995. The second day will focus on normalization, with an eye, chiefly, on the two countries satisfying the terms of the Vienna conventions that govern the credentialing of diplomats and the opening of embassies.
The U.S. wants American diplomats to be reaccredited in Cuba and face no travel restrictions. The U.S. also wants no limits on the number of U.S. diplomats in the country, unimpeded shipments to the U.S. mission and free access for Cubans to the mission. Jacobson will meet Cuban activists and civil society representatives, as well.
The third day will feature an English-Spanish news conference by Jacobson, to be held at the residence of the chief of mission of the U.S. Interests Section.-Fox
The migration and normalization talks between the United States and Cuba are the biggest face-to-face meetings since Presidents Obama and Raul Castro announced their intentions last month to re-establish diplomatic ties.
If and when the U.S. and Communist Cuba “normalize” relations, Obama would effectively be sponsoring terrorism around the western hemisphere, and would be signaling to the world that all of the atrocities that the Castros’ have committed, and will continue to commit, should be disregarded.
Then again, the U.S. has been working with communist Vietnam, and I don’t have to remind you about how many U.S. servicemen were killed at the hands of that government.
Meanwhile, son of Cuban exiles and Florida Senator Marco Rubio, will be attending President Obama’s State of the Union address with his guest Rosa Maria Paya, daughter of Oswaldo Paya.
Oswaldo Pay and Cuban youth activists Harold Cepero were killed in an automobile accident back in 2012, an accident that is said to have been a targeting killing by the Castro regime.
