Thank you to both letter-writers, Kelly Scoles and Pat Collins. I will limit my response as I mentioned last week.
I ask that we all address the important issue of quasi-communist Cuba next week (only 90-miles off Florida). It will be refreshing to switch to a different but similarly strategically threatening issue. The US has shown weakness and naivete in ignoring Cuba as potential nuclear threat since the era of President Kennedy. Cuba is impotent now, but can, as we have witnessed historically, be empowered with nuclear weapons quickly by the likes of Russia, China, even North Korea.
Hello Kelly Scoles,
If Russia were not nearly bankrupt, North Korea as well, their military presence would be massively greater on the island today. But we should not dismiss what armaments are still there. Keep in mind that even North Korea’s Dog Patch military has many submarines: “North Korea maintains one of the largest submarine fleets in the world, with intelligence estimates placing its total fleet at roughly 64 to 86 vessels.” They even have one “boomer”.
The people of Cuba live wretched lives, short of every common benefit like food, oil, transportation, and a Christian education system, but most of all FREEDOM to access these things, which Americans take for granted. We need to free Cuba. After that, prosperity would be explosive. That would be the easiest of Trump triumphs and the most immediately appreciated. Several excellent books describe in detail the same wretched, murderous atheistic misery forced on Cubans who long for liberation from their criminal captors. It is the same bloody captivity Lenin and Stalin offered up in 1917, and Russia, China and North Korea exploit today.
For those who despise Donald Trump for many of his arguably triumphalist foreign policy attitudes, I ask, would it at least be fair to balance those attitudes with turning the Western hemisphere back away from the Communist East, and the military castration of Iran, greatest terrorist nation in the world?
I still believe in a great oncoming nuclear war because our enemies need it and their leaders can’t psychologically survive defeat, the foundational cause being spiritual, not natural. I believe it is worthy to believe that our time is more evil than that of the Flood, and we are about to receive the Chastisement. I reference The Warning.

Hello Pat Collins,
I am very curious to understand all the money games being played in the world today. Fraud of every kind moves the world. I would like to see a global FBI created with the most powerful AI investigative electronics available. However, our culture is so thoroughly corrupt I don’t believe we could staff such an organization with trustworthy people. The cure is prayer and repentance – but most of human culture is now atheist, communist, or just anti Judeo Christian and laugh at the faith they see as medieval nonsense. They can’t imagine something so sublime as eternity.
