"It would be worthwhile asking the big power, the same that has almost one thousand military bases and seven fleets with nuclear aircraft carriers and thousands of combat planes used to exert tyranny on the world, how is it going to solve the drug issue."
"It is absolutely obvious that the United States will always try to put pressure on Cuba, as they do on the UN or any other public or private institution of the world. That is one of the features that characterizes the governments of that country; it would be impossible to expect otherwise from them. No wonder we have resisted for 54 years –and we’ll continue to resist for any additional amount of time, if need be- relentlessly defending our country and confronting the criminal economic blockade imposed by the powerful empire."
"Our times are characterized by an unprecedented event: the threat to the survival of the human species imposed on the world by imperialism.
The painful reality should not come as a surprise to anyone. It could be seen rapidly advancing in the past few decades, at such a pace as it is hard to imagine."

We shall not only take flowers to the grave of Carmen Nordelo. We shall keep on restlessly struggling to free Gerardo, Antonio, Fernando, Ramon and Rene, exposing the endless hypocrisy and cynicism of the empire, and defending the truth!
“The philosophy and moral of imperialism is the philosophy and moral of corruption, selfishness and individualism; and such are the powerful weapons it uses for its ideological struggle against the Revolution.”
“We should never trust imperialism because it is treacherous and capable of anything. It tortures in Guantanamo; it tortures in the Iraqi prisons and in the special centers set up in former socialist countries; it uses white phosphorous, and then it claims that “it is the most innocent and legitimate weapon.”
“A great number of the cleverest minds in the world are uprooted from their original countries and placed at the service of the system. It is a parasitical and plundering empire.”
“We are going to set up a system of collective surveillance. We are going to set up a system of collective revolutionary surveillance! (…) so that they can see that when the masses organize, there is no imperialist, no imperialist lackey, no person sold out to the imperialists, no instrument of the imperialists that can make a move.”
“The United States government is using unimaginable economic means to defend a right that violates the sovereignty of all the other countries: to keep on buying raw materials, energy, advanced technology industries, the most productive lands and the most modern buildings on the face of our planet with paper money.”
“I think the imperialists have a lot to learn about the significance of such a social force as this. Lenin said that a Revolution was worth its name when it could defend itself. The truth is our Revolution has shown that it can defend itself. And it does so with powerful instruments.”
