"Fidel, leave Bush alone and let there be
light"
CIENFUEGOS, October 1, Cuba (Alejandro
Tur Valladares, Cubanacán Press /
www.cubanet.org) - On the night of September
27, as the Cuban government faithful celebrated
the anniversary of the creation of the neighborhood
watchdog Committees for the Defense of the
Revolution 44 years ago, an unknown and
probably unknowable number of discontents,
under cover of one of the frequent blackouts,
made a mockery of the concept by painting
anti-government slogans on walls and breaking
glass on government storefronts. One graffiti
read: "Fidel, leave Bush alone and
let there be light".
Cubans have been living under chronic blackouts
for months now, and, according to government
pronouncements, there is no end in sight,
as repairs to the national electrical grid
are undertaken.
Persons unknown broke the glass windows
on the La Oriental and La Esmeralda stores,
and on the butcher shop on 60 Avenue.
