A Candle in Havana - Darkest Before the Dawn

 :tongue2:Darkest Before the Dawn
Candle in Havana – Chronicles of a Dying City

The Last Wire

This is my final entry in the Candle in Havana series... one last candle.

The regime is losing its grip.

The grid has collapsed. The streets are filled. The people are no longer whispering... they are shouting “LIBERTAD!”

For decades, Cuba has been a warning. Now it’s becoming something else.

The system is cracking in real time.

The question is no longer if something changes...

It’s what rises when it does.

History may be turning on this moment.

VIVA CUBA LIBRE!

Read the final A Candle in Havana at The Last Wire!

If you don't already know, Cubans are among the best people in the world. Pray for them and for their freedom.  :patriot:

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

C S Lewis
