http://www.petitionspot.com/petitions/vivafidel/ US President George W Bush is in the midst of preparing an anti-democratic transformation from socialism to capitalism in Cuba, after (or before) revolutionary Cuban leader Fidel Castro's death. Castro, whose heroic revolutionary movement overthrew the US-supported dictator Fulgencio Batista and replaced the suffering of millions of Cubans with a socialist governement providing free health care, literacy for all Cubans and one of the best infant mortality rates in the world (only 8 deaths for every 1000 births) an above-average life expectancy rate and a doctor for every 146 inhabitants as well as being the country to send the most doctors to third-world countries. The revolution in Cuba must be perserved for the sake of millions of lives, all those who believe in progress and social justice, all those who believe in the right for socialism to exist and all those who believe in the true meaning of democracy: power to the people, please sign this petition. Communism is not a privilege, it is a right of the people, it is the rising of the exploited against the exploiters, it is the ultimate proof of liberty and democracy, because property does not mean liberty, power does not mean justice, and capitalism does not mean democracy. This is the first fight in a long battle, against the United States' foreign policy of oppression and exploitation in Latin America, in Africa and in the world and now particularly in Cuba. For all those who still believe that America is a free and democratic country that believes in the well-being and justice of other people in the world, here is an abridged, approximate list of dictatorships supported by America over the years (taken from http://www.omnicenter.org) Abacha, General Sani-Nigeria Amin, Idi-Uganda Banzer, Colonel Hugo- Bolivia Batista, Fulgencio-Cuba Bolkiah, Sir Hassanal-Brunei Botha, P.W.-South Africa Branco, General Humberto-Brazil Cedras, Raoul-Haiti Cerezo, Vinicio-Guatemala Chiang Kai-Shek-Taiwan Cordova, Roberto Suazo-Honduras Christiani, Alfredo-El Salvador Diem, Ngo Dihn-Vietnam Doe, General Samuel-Liberia Duvalier, Francois-Haiti Duvalier, Jean Claude-Haiti Fahd bin'Abdul-'Aziz, King-Saudi Arabia Franco, General Francisco-Spain Hitler, Adolf-Germany Hassan II-Morocco Marcos, Ferdinand-Philippines Martinez, General Maximiliano Hernandez-El Salvador Mobutu Sese Seko-Zaire Montt, General Efrain Rios Guatemala Noriega, General Manuel-Panama Ozal, Turgut-Turkey Pahlevi, Shah Mohammed Reza-Iran Papadopoulos, George-Greece Park Chung Hee-South Korea Pinochet, General Augusto-Chile Rabuka, General Sitiveni-Fiji Montt, General Efrain Rios-Guatemala Salassie, Halie-Ethiopia Salazar, Antonio de Oliveira-Portugal Somoza, Anastasio Jr.-Nicaragua Somoza, Anastasio, Sr.-Nicaragua Smith, Ian-Rhodesia Stroessner, Alfredo- Paraguay Suharto, General-Indonesia Trujillo, Rafael Leonidas-Dominican Republic Videla, General Jorge Rafael-Argentina Zia Ul-Haq, Mohammed-Pakistan Is this foreign policy acceptable for a country that proclaims to be encouraging democracy in the world? This is not democracy. So we ask you, fight with us, fight for Fidel, just as he fought for the Latin American people in the Sierra Maestra with the Comandante Che Guevara, whose ideal of spreading socialism in the great exploited lands of Latin America and Africa we still believe in!And so this petition argues for the US governement to let the Cuban People decide for themselves and to stop any kind of military, economic or political intervention after or before Fidel Castro's death. Fight with us, in the name of social justice, in the name of democracy, in the name of the freedom to exist and to be, a revolutionary socialist governement. HASTA LA VICTORIA SIEMPRE!
