Biteeeeeeee... roosteeeeer..!

By: Jose Gilberto Valdes/ Camagüey Television

As a caguairan, one of the Sierra Maestra stronger trees. Tall, vigorous, as a fight rooster, with the brilliant feathers that it is health, as an old pilferer of the family said, with long and sharp spurs to face the enemy.

They are the images that crowded together in the mind when I listened for the radio station Radio Clock the news, soon after of six in the morning: Fidel in the Special Round Table, for radio and Cuban television, stops here and for the world.

After the surprise in the habit of being early rising, the morning and the afternoon I passed investigating on the topic. I could find little more than the announcement that would reappear in the small screen to argue, first hand, the dangerous events that take place in the Half East.
However, to this event that will happen in some minutes - I write these lines. at 5 15 p.m local time- have preceded him several “Reflections of the partner Fidel” that have alerted to the world about the career toward a warlike conflict of unforeseeable results.

Also, some days ago, I had the opportunity to read an article of the colleague's Ernesto Pantaleón, titled “The luxury of another war”. Of that journalistic material appropriate, with the appropriate consultation ethics, of some paragraphs to invite them to think about the dangers steps that gives a state applicant to world gendarme.

A radial commentator North American summarized his journalistic work in the following way: “We cannot allow ourselves the luxury of a new war”, and pointed out that instead of financing warlike campaigns funds should be dedicated to “to bolster our streets, our schools, our cities…”
And it is not for less: the governments more guerreristas of the orb, if we count the last yank administrations, have invested and continue investing hundred of thousands of millions of dollars in the conflicts with Iraq and Afghanistan, and now Obama prepares to begin a military escalade in Iran.

While… the Americans suffer cuttings in the budgets of social attendance, the taxes increase, close employment sources and more children get lost, siblings, husbands or parents, died by actions of the resistance in the busy nations.

They extend per years the confrontations and exit is not glimpsed, at least an airy exit for those “the uncle's boys Sam.”

Not this far from the partner's recent reflection Fidel, (Julio 11 of 2010
8 and 14 p.m.)
“Today everything lolls of a delicate thread.

My main purpose went to notice to the international public opinion of what was happening.

I have achieved it partly observing what happened, as political leader that I was during long years facing to the empire,its blockades and its unqualifiable crimes. Plus, I don't make it for vengeance.

I don't hesitate in running the risks of committing my modest moral authority.

I will continue writing Reflections on the topic. There will be several more after this to continue deepening in July and August, unless some incident that puts to work the murderous weapons happens that today some are aimed to other.”

When comes closer the moment of the round table, I remember the exclamation of the old pilferer of the family, with the red face, the swollen veins, and forces in the words:
Biteeeeeeeeee roosteeeeeeeeeeeeeeer.
