U.S. Plots Cuba Invasion Plan

An $80 million fund has been approved by George W. Bush to help the United States ease into Cuba once Fidel Castro Dies.

In the second report from the Commission for Assistance to a Free Cuba (CAFC), released on July 5, the U.S. has planned stepped up attacks on the island states sovereignty. The reports compact with the Cuban people openly states that the United States will help, if asked, to create a transitional government that supports “genuine” democracy, human rights and an open market system as a way of integrating the country into the inter-American system.

The report also describes the first 180 days (after Castro dies) as vital saying they could mean the "difference between a successful transition period and the stumbles and missteps that have slowed other states in their transitions toward democracy".

George Bush has said the report shows “the U.S. is working for change in Cuba, not simply waiting for change”.

The CAFC describes the report not as an imposition but a promise to the Cuban people that the United States will be there to grow support around the world and help out when the time arises.

The $80 million dollar fund is to be used as a part of a two year program to break what the U.S. describes as the “information blockade” as well as preparations for the post- Castro transfer of power.

In a television interview Cuban National Assembly Ricardo Alarcon called the report a true threat of aggression believing Cubans have the right to be worried about the contents of the classified parts of the report.

Bruno Rodriguez, another Cuban government minister, also told the BBC on 6 July, that the plans put in place could not be achieved without an invasion.

Even a Cuban based government dissident has criticised the report with Ex-Government Economist/Journalist Oscar Espinosa Chepe, who broadcasts his anti government analysis on the U.S. backed Radio Marti, saying in a 11 July BBC report, that the reports approved recommendations are counterproductive.
