J D Vance Slams UK Two Tier Policing Over The Death Of Henry Nowak - Starmer Tries To Suppress Discussion

 

U.S. Vice President JD Vance, on past record no fan of the UK's Labour government, this week stuck his boot into Starmer's hapless crew once again as the shocking truth about the death teenage student Henry Nowak sent a wave of anti - woke anger around the civilised world. While leading figures in the Labour movement, including Starmer himself, tried to claim the two tier policing policy exposed by the story of how young Henry died was a  British issue in which Vance had no right to involve himself,, tge Vice President's comments, in which he blamed his death on what he said was civilizational decline and the ‌failure to stop the "mass invasion of migrants," certainly resonate with a large sector of te British public and attracted attention in most western nations.

It has also triggered an orgy of virtue signalling from left wing politicians, celebrities and media hacks. 

In December last year, Henry Nowak, an 18-year-old white student, was handcuffed by police as he lay dying ‌from stab wounds after his killer falsely alleged a racist attack. The killer, a Sikh man, was sentenced on Monday to life in prison.

Video footage from a bodycam worn by one of the arresting officers showed police ignoring Nowak's pleas as ​he lay dying, sparking questions over why the police had believed the allegation of racism and not Nowak who said repeatedly that he had been stabbed and could not breathe.

"Henry Nowak died the same way a civilization dies: abandoned, handcuffed by authorities who neither trusted nor cared for him, and accused of hate crimes he did not commit," Vance said on X. "Each time a life like his is lost, the proper response — the only response — is righteous anger."

Vance said Nowak ‌would be alive today "if the last few generations ⁠of European elites had stood their ground against the politics of self-hatred and the mass invasion of migrants, many of whom despise the West and the people who love it".

It can be argued that JD Vance is wrong to link a ”mass invasion of migrants” to Henry’s murder specifically, because the crime was committed by an insane person and no ethic, or religious group or social class is immune from having members who suffer from psychosis. Generally however, it isn’t Sikhs who are proving to be the problematic group who are overrepresented for stabbings, terrorist attacks, sex crimes etc.. The link between mass immigration and an increase in violent and sexual crime is undeniable and is repeated across Europe and in the USA,Canada and Australia.  What Henry’s murder demonstrates is that the UK police respond differently to people of colour than they do to white people. Objectivity and staying factual is key.

“If we had not let Sikhs into the country in the first place, this crime would not have happened.” This claim is literally true in this particular case. Vikrum Digwa’s parents were migrants from India and the family is Sikh. However, the significance of this is generally expanded to a claim that the murder occurred because Digwa was a Sikh and that immigration policies that allowed Sikhs in are to blame for increased violent crime. This relies on a fundamental misunderstanding of crime per capita.

Confusion over the concept of per capita is common and it seems to be counterintuitive to people to think this way. While religion is not recorded in crime records, it is in prison populations which represent the most serious crimes. Sikhs are underrepresented in serious crime.

If British Sikhs made up the entire population, serious crime would be about 20% lower than it is now. This may even be too low an estimate of the gap. Because the Sikh population is younger than the general population which increases prevalence of crime and because they are more likely to be city-dwellers which also has this effect, we would expect this to elevate serious crime rates among the group. This is not the case.

Rather than focusing on the ethic and religious background of the killer we should be asking the questions or government does not want to answer about police training (indoctrination,) in 'racial awareness' and what is the link between that and the fact that several police officers ignored the pleas for help of a white man who was lying on the ground and was obviously distressed and yet believed the outrageous allegation of the unharmed perpetrator that he hand been the victim of a racist attack.

When the plods did finally turn their attention to Henry, it was to sarcastically dismiss the information that he had been stabbed, roughly lift him to his feet and proceed to handcuff him even though its should have been clear even to an idiot, that he was unable to stand unaided. Moments later the young man died from loss of blood.

The other remarkable aspect of this story is the way that politicians of the left have been desperately eager to support the request of Henry Nowak's father to avoid making the boy's death political. Had the crime been white on black, leftie race hustlers would have already made it the biggest political story of the century, in fact the left are still trying to make political capital from the murder of Stephen Lawrence which took place 3 years ago.

Futures - Some Speculations On How The Forever Wars May Change The World

contributed by Hugh Jarse, 4 June 2026 

 

It seems peace talks between the USA and Iran have now stalled completely thanks to the intervention of the Israelis although whether there were ever realistic hope for a lasting peace and full reopening of the Strait of Hormuz seaway will probably never be known.

What this means to the west and the democratic nations of south east Asia and the Pacific area is that we are in for prolonged high prices for fuel, disruption of supply lines and soaring cost of living as Russia and China take advantage of the situation to turn the screws and squeeze western economies.

Another possibility is Iran will fall. Unfortunate but the possibility exits. Instead of shutting out the possibility Russia should  plan (and probably has,)to turn it into a grand opportunity. If Iran is weakened it will be likely  to host Russian military bases in the country to counter the threat from Israel. Russia has been asking this but thus far Iran has refused. Very bad memories of WW2 events when Russia joined the evil empires. Having a military presence in the Strait of Hormuz is a game changer for Russia. Unlike Iran, Russia can’t be negotiated away from assuming a hostile position. 

This would create a massive bargaining chip to force surrender of Lewinsky Zelensky regime (pun so intended), lift petroleum sanctions against Russia (or Arab oil goes nowhere), a warm water port in Chabahar for nuclear submarines that more than compensate for the loss of Black Sea and Baltic Sea exits. Azerbaijan stands in the way of total Russian domination of the region. 

This Turkish outpost is a threat to the region. It’s easy game. Thereafter Oman too can be cleared paving the way for Iran to control the entire Arabic coastline other than inlets. Djibouti and surrounds are already pro-Iranian thanks to the Al-Shabab and Houthi alliance. The decision makers in the north see this once in a century opportunity. But all depends on a weakened Iran. It’s still strong. Let the fools do all the hard work of weakening Iran before Russia moves, that's how the Russians have always worked.    

It’s not well known that Russia is one of the leading exporters of foodstuffs, grains especially. Its farmers believe Russia has the ability to solve what they call the food problem, meaning global hunger. Within Russia and the Central Asian EAEU members, there’s a vast amount of land that can be cultivated or made into pasture, plus the advances  in greenhouse farming is remarkable allowing crops to be grown in what are very marginal climates. While governments in the UK and Europe obsess over crackpot policies like Net Zero, 'rewilding and importing all food and manufactured goods (paid for with money borrowed from China via the global banks,) the nations our leaders tell us are 'The Bad Guys' have positioned themselves to take advantage of the sentimental stupidities that pass for economic policy in the developed nations.

We should also look at the advances African nations have made toward attaining food sovereignty with help from Russia and China. The nations most affected by the fertiliser shortage caused first by the sanctions imposed on Russia for its action against the Ukronazis in Kiev and now exacerbated by the much reduced flow of goods out of The Persian Gulf, are those with industrial agriculture methods including the use of GM seeds whose high yields depend on those inputs. 

This kind of response from Russia and China is understandable, the US and Europe have been working to impoverish Russia since before 1945, and has colonised and exploited Africa since way before then, and has been no friend to China until it suited the elites and the global banks to use China as the world's workshop because of its low labour costs and a totalitarian systrem of government unencumbered by the lobbying of 'save-the-planet' screechers.
 

As things stand it looks increasingly possible the USA and Europe will lose the current set of wars that we are undertaking. Prolonged war would leave European Russia severely damaged.  Asian Russia and Central Asia are likely to survive mostly intact and have a convenient long border with China.  The US and Europe will continue to promote war and submission in Africa, but that is coming to an end due to growing Chinese influence on the dark continent. None of the west's leaders appear to possess the testicular fortitude to risk pissing off the Chinese as they have the Russians   

After the west's capitulation, Asian Russia would probably become very prosperous.  Prosperous enough to rebuild European Russia, and then help with other regions after that.  Africa will steadily grow and become an independent continent.  If they become mostly internally peaceful with respect to each other, Africa will prosper.
 
The US has the ability to destroy lots of the world before it loses, and the odds of the US unleashing nukes is not zero.  However, if the Democrats retake the White House at the end of the Trump presidency and revert to the loonytoons policies of the Obama and Biden eras, the ability of the US to control other nations will become close to non-existent.  Even if the Epstein class relocates to Argentina, their wealth and power will be substantially reduced.  Thus we can be reasonably optimistic about the long term future of humanity on the planet Earth.  It’s just the short term we should be concerned about.

Another possibility is Iran will fall. Unfortunate but the possibility exits. Instead of shutting out to the possibility Russia should plan to turn it into a grand opportunity. If Iran is weakened Iran will likely host Russian military bases in the country. Russia has been asking this but thus far Iran has refused. Very bad memories of WW2 events when Russia joined the evil empires. 

Having a military presence in the Strait of Hormuz would be a game changer for Russia. Unlike Iran, Russia can’t be negotiated away from assuming a hostile position. A massive bargaining chip to force surrender of Lewinsky Zelensky regime (pun so intended), lift petroleum sanctions against Russia (or Arab oil goes nowhere), a warm water port in Chabahar for nuclear submarines that more than compensate for the loss of Black Sea and Baltic Sea exits. 

Azerbaijan stands in the way of total Russian domination of the region. This Turkish outpost is a threat to the region. It’s easy game. Thereafter Oman too can be cleared paving the way for Iran to control the entire Arabic coastline other than inlets. Djibouti and surrounds are already pro-Iranian thanks to the Al-Shabab and Houthi alliance. Hope the decision makers in the north see this once in a century opportunity. 

But all this depends on a weakened Iran. It’s still strong. Let the fools do all the hard work of weakening Iran before Russia moves the knight. Oh a byproduct will be the collapse of the entity hanging north of the Red Sea.

Police Handling Of The Henry Nowak Murder Proves UK Now Has Two Tier Criminal Justice System

by Arthur Foxake, 2 June 2026

 

Protestors demanding police take responsibility for the death of Henry Nowak surround a Police Station in Southampton - Picture credit: The Currant Bun)

The most damning illustration yet of the societal collapse wrought by the infiltration of all state institutions by woke ideology is the murder, in December 2025, of 18 year-old student Henry Nowak, who, in the last moments of his life, was stripped of dignity and treated as a criminal rather than a victim of crime as he lay, bleeding to death from multiple stab wounds because of a grotesque failure of police judgement. After his killer, standing unharmed only a few feet from where Henry lay, accused him of racism, the officers seemed more alert to the risk to its reputation of mishandling an allegation of racism than to the obvious reality of who was in danger and who needed immediate, life-saving protection.

Hampshire and Isle of Wight Constabulary has only now, six months later, been dragged, kicking and screaming, into releasing the officers’ body-worn video footage, and it is every bit as appalling as can be imagined. Since becoming involved in  alt--news journalism about twenty years ago I have watched Islamic State, South American drug cartel and Nigerian Boko Haram videos of terrorist atrocities, yet this ranks among the most harrowing. Henry Nowak said multiple times that he had been stabbed, yet an officer replied, “I don’t think you have, mate.” OK, it was dark, and the murderer, realising just what he’d done, was doing his best to distract officers by complaining of his victim's 'racism.' 

But they heard Henry state he’d been stabbed and that he couldn’t breathe. And their emergency life support training would have made them aware of the possibility of internal, invisible bleeding.

For generations, British police forces were widely respected and had the support and trust of the public for their fairness and impartiality,  restraint and equal application of the law. That reputation and the trust and confidence which went with it has now been destroyed. Policing is now, as the nation is swamped by a wave of crime liked to mass immigration, shaped less by  principles of justice than by political anxiety, identity politics and 'woke' dogma. After a succession of high-profile failures culminating in this one, it is no longer credible to dismiss that charge as culture-war exaggeration. It is shown plainly in the conduct of the police themselves that British justice operates a two tier system with different rules for white, Christian or secular heterosexuals and another for minorities of certain race, religion or gender identities/

The situation becomes beyond redemption when officers become so frightened of causing offence, provoking protest or being accused by the organisation of racism, Islamophobia, homophobia or transphobia (all of which are nonsensical concepts, that they allow policing policy to become political. 

In cases like the tragic death of Henry Nowak, fear of not taking an accusation of racism seriously enough was allowed to overwhelm the basic duty to protect the vulnerable, assess the facts and enforce the law equally. This is not an unfortunate side-effect. It is an obvious, foreseeable result of years of signals from the top, of officers being forced to attend racial awareness courses, lectured by transgender ideologues and gay rights lunatics or harangued by radical Islamic hate preachers. Senior leaders, through their activism (for that is what it is), have created a culture in which the most career-threatening accusation – racism – can freeze judgement at the exact moment when potentially life-saving action is needed.

The officers involved in this case must not be allowed to hide behind the institution. Their duty was to assess the scene, identify the real victim and act on the evidence in front of them. Instead, they flinched at the killer’s accusation of racism and treated the the danger of seeming insufficiently sensitive more urgently than the immediate threat of death through loss of blood facing Henry. If someone says he has been stabbed, the first priority is to see to the wellbeing of that person. The seriousness of any injuries decides the priority with which officers treat people, no matter who is the victim or suspect. Although there is no common law duty of care  on police officers to protect individuals from harm, they do have such a duty when they have assumed responsibility for an individual – which, in this case, they did when, after arresting Henry they putting him in handcuffs and hoisted him to his feet.

The failure of the officers at the scene was not abstract, theoretical or procedural. It was a personal collapse of judgement with fatal consequences. But it was also the predictable product of a culture that has trained officers to fear ideological wrongthink more than operational failure.

Henry Nowak was murdered by political correctness.

One in 7 shops in UK has turned cashless in the past year, survey finds - BBC Headline

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/cm211jnz568o

The article below appered on the BBC News site in March this year, we reproduce it here without permission in order to call it out as pure propaganda. It is widely accepted in Britain the once reliable (and by deed of its charter politically impartial,) national broadcaster has become a mouthpiece for groups both elected ad unelected, that are dedicated to promoting globalism and a world government.

One of the policies of these globalists has been the abolition of cash and the transfer of all private and commercial activity to digital media.This will be safer for the public, proponents of the fascistic idea claim, blithely ignoring the stupendous amounts of money lost to digital fraudsters each year and the thousands of people whose savings have been stolen and whose lives have been lives ruined by online scammers. 

The attraction of a cashless society for the technocratic control freak who repeatedly call for the abolition of cash is that it destroys our right of privacy (one of the inalienable human rights defined in the Geneva Convention of 1948,) and makes us vulnerable to digital surveillance.

Ask yourselves why would so many Small traders be eager to go cashless? Independent buisnesses are facing enough problems already without turning money away because the customer wants to pay cash. The article also fails to mention that the trader loses part of their profit on every card transaction, because the card issuer takes a commission - a fraction of one per cent on UK debit cards but with debit card use running at over 2 billion transactions a month the banks are on a nice earner for doing nothing.  

We note that The BBC does not provide links to or in fact any information at all about the source of their claim.

High Street shops are increasingly accepting only card or phone payments, new research suggests, as traders balance security, costs and the needs of customers.

Some 14% of shops have turned cashless over the last year, according to a survey of small businesses by the UK's main ATM network Link.

The findings highlighted retailers' efforts to avoid payment charges and tackle security concerns, despite around half of in-store purchases still being made in cash.

MPs on the influential Treasury Committee last year warned of a lack of data on cash acceptance and said the government should be ready to force shops and services to accept cash to protect vulnerable people.

They said there was a risk of a two-tier system, potentially pushing up prices in outlets that still accepted cash and creating a poverty premium for those who best budgeted using cash.

Shops and services can currently accept whatever form of payment they want. Some countries have introduced, or plan to implement, limited but mandatory cash acceptance for some essential services.

Alex White, owner of store Arkwhites in Hastings, says he has adapted to his customers' preferences

The coastal town of Hastings in East Sussex has a vibrant mix of independent and chain stores, as well as traditional seaside traders.

It also has a typical mix of shops that are cash only or card only, with the majority happy to take either form of payment.

When Alex White started Arkwhites in Hastings Old Town, selling items near their best before date at discount prices, he would only accept cash. Now, he accepts cards too.

"When I started I wanted it just to be a cash store, because that's the way I've been brought up. I didn't really want to go into using a credit card machine, which is an extra cost," he said.

"But then over time I realised that a lot of people just use their cards and don't use cash."

Elsewhere in the town, fish and chips and books are sold only for cash, while cakes and ice creams require a card payment.

For the most part, the decision to go cashless is based on business costs and worries about theft.

Link's report, called Keeping Choice Alive, found that 77% of High Street businesses asked in its independent consumer council's survey, still accepted cash.

However, more than half of those which no longer accepted cash had taken that decision within the last year.

Of those which had gone cashless:

• About a fifth said this was the result of the perceived threat of fraud, such as counterfeit banknotes

• The same proportion suggested it was the result of security concerns, such as theft, shoplifting and violence against shopworkers

• Nearly as many highlighted a lack of demand among their customers to pay in cash

The cost of handling money was another factor, especially when faced with the closure or limited opening hours of bank branches.

About half of retailers said they paid more than £50 a month to handle cash deposits, with 15% of those asked paying more than £200 a month.

 

 

THE DEATH SPIRAL OF THE LIBERAL DEMOCRACIES

 

 

In nearly every European Union member state, public spending, and in particular spending on welfare and benefits, is accelerating at all levels, from municipalities and social insurance systems all the way up to the European Commission, while the economy of the private sector at best stagnates and its industrial core sectors visibly erode.

The economic imbalance, in which a contracting private sector is  unable to finance a continuously expanding state apparatus and the state has to plug the gap by continuous borrowing, is already  causing  in the bond markets.  Yields (real interest rates obtained when governments have to sell their bonds for less than face value, have been rising steadily for years, making the servicing of government debts increasingly expensive. As long as financing the needs of public  spending continues to grow under the ruling ideology of an all-encompassing state this financial burden will fuel the need for ever higher taxation and a destructive race among parties of government to squeeze taxpayers at every level. Such an irresponsible approach to financial polit can only result in economic chaos.

Naturally, when it comes to fleecing European taxpayers, the European Commission will be at the front from the starting signal. Brussels is currently preparing its seven-year budget framework, set to exceed €2 trillion beginning in 2028.

Apollo News recently reported that the European Parliament is even demanding a further 10 percent increase in this budget ceiling. Excess, wastefulness, and a complete detachment from economic reality are driving the EU’s relentless search for new sources of tax revenue.

To this end, Commission President Ursula von der Squeeze'em-til-the-pips-squeak commissioned the Center for Social and Economic Research (CASE) last year to produce a study examining the potential of a wealth tax across the entire EU. 

There is no point in any attempt at a “redistribution” policy, so long as the central redistribution mechanism which leads to an ever increasing wealth gap remains in place: an above zero inflation target.

THIS is the reverse robin hood, distributing wealth from the lower, middle, and upper middle class all the way to the top.

When “money” (or currency, rather) continually loses value (by design!), and “assets” increase in value, then the defining characteristic is how your wealth is split. The closer to the top of the food chain you are, the faster you get rich. This is by design, and nothing can stop it so long as we don’t have sound money with a zero inflation target.

The fiat money system and bank laws grant financiers like Larry Fink and the banks ways to leverage their wealth into multiples of what the capital investment really is. Obviously, the political machines running Europe are following suit but without oversight. The ability of government to borrow against future revenues allows almost infinite short-term revenues. And,  the exceptional power to change laws allows the politicos to think they MAKE the future by over spending revenues. 

They starve the golden egg-laying goose to allow more spending and when the health of the golden goose becomes questionable the bond markets apply rising interest rates. The politicos become tone deaf and resort to further starvation of the goose. 

Government refuses to take heed and instead resorts increasingly short-changing the food going to the golden-egg-laying goose. The goose lays fewer eggs and the government punishes the goose by reducing the quality of the food (reduction in the value of the currency). 

When that causes still fewer eggs, the government resorts to plucking the goose through wealth and inheritance taxes. No surprise, the goose produces even fewer eggs. Just watch what happens not just to cities like NYC but to whole countries around the world (Cuba, Venezuela, Zimbabwe, etc.) Total control over taxation by government ends up as self-indulgence by government that ultimately kills the goose. 

Only the USA is somewhat protected by its role as issuer of the dominant reserve currency. 
While the BRICS+ bloc have plans to engage in currency wars with the aim of promoting the Chinese Yuan as a reserve currency to rival the dollar such a project would take decades to make any serious impact on the balance of world trade

Because other nations will always need to buy dollars to settle international trades, US government agencies and commercial ventures can dictate prices.

And that is how the European Union and other nations like UK and Japan have thrown themselves into a death spiral. But with the governments of the EU and the rest of the developed world hooked on virtue signalling policies like Open Borders and Net Zero, the will to take those hard decisions that could break a nation out of the death sipn just does not exist.

Trump Says Deal With Iran Is Close - Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei Says 'Death To America'

 

 

Two days ago US President Donald Trump told a White House press briefing an agreement with Iran has been "largely negotiated" and details will be announced soon.

The deal would include the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, he said on Saturday, without giving further details.

Trump wrote on social media that he had a "very good call" with the leaders of Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and others about a "Memorandum of Understanding pertaining to PEACE".

"An agreement has been largely negotiated, subject to finalisation between the United States of America, the Islamic Republic of Iran, and the various other Countries, as listed," his Truth Social read.

In response an Iranian foreign ministry spokesman told state television that US and Iranian positions had been converging in the last week, but warned that did not mean agreements would be reached on key issues and accused the Americans of "contradictory statements.

A British Prime Minister of the 1960 once famously said 'A week is a long time in politics.' That was then and this is now, a digital age of information overload when a week is almost eternity and Two days is an aeon.

 While Tump was again calling for peace today (May 26 ), Iranian leader Ayatollah Mojtaba Khamenei issued a message  calling for greater unity across the Muslim world against the United States and Israel, saying that the chants “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” will become the rallying slogans of Muslims and “the oppressed of the world.” 

Khamenei’s message was to mark Hajj, the annual Islamic pilgrimage. In it, Khamenei described a historic struggle against U.S. and Israeli influence in the Middle East, repeatedly invoking the revolutionary slogan “Allahu Akbar” as the “weapon” that had enabled Iran and its allies to resist outside pressure.

He said Iran had succeeded in “making the Zionist regime helpless under its severe blows during the second imposed war” and in delivering “a harsh slap to aggressive America,” while thwarting efforts to force Tehran into submission.

The statement also praised what it called the “Resistance Front,” saying Iranian forces and allied fighters in Lebanon had secured “notable victories” against “the two terrorist armies, armed to the teeth by the American-Zionist side.”

Khamenei coupled the aggressive rhetoric with a broader appeal for cooperation among Muslim-majority countries, calling on Muslim leaders to “no longer serve as shields for American bases” while denouncing Israel as a “faltering” regime that was nearing “the final stages of its cursed life.”

Khamenei’s message came as the United States, Israel, and Iran remain locked in a tense standoff following months of fighting that included U.S. and Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear and military facilities, Iranian retaliation across the region, and disruptions to shipping in the Strait of Hormuz.

An aspect of the conflict's wider impact that is not being discussed in mainstream media is the increase in terrorist activity since the outbreak of hostilities initially between Israel and Iran around three months ago. Iran had long been known as the main sponsor of The Muslim Brotherhood, an organisation formed to take jihad into the western democracies. Yet many western leaders are so committed to virtue signalling they refuse to ban the organisation. 

Although the ceasefire Trump negotiated has largely held for the past month, with only minor violations by both sides, negotiations continue over a proposed memorandum of understanding intended to end hostilities and establish a framework for future talks.

U.S. President Donald Trump said on May 25 that negotiations with Tehran were “proceeding nicely” but warned that failure to secure an acceptable agreement could lead to renewed military action.

Earlier today we heard that overnight.US forces carried out “defensive” strikes on a missile site and two Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) mine-laying boats, which officials said were targeting the United States.

Iran immediately accused the US of violating the ceasefire (although to be fair both sides have been violating it on a daily basis,) and criticised the “bad faith and unreliability” of Washington, adding that it would be held accountable for “all consequences arising from these hostile acts”.

“Without any doubt, the Islamic Republic of Iran will leave no aggression unanswered and will not hesitate in defending Iran’s sovereignty with the utmost determination,” the foreign ministry said in a statement.

And so it looks as if we are back to square one. Start stocking up your survival cupboards folks, oil and a lot of things that depend on  oil are going to be in short supply for a while yet.

Cuba Next On Trump's Hit List

 
A street in Cuba's historic capital, Havana, showing the kind of prosperity communism never fails to deliver (Picture APnews.com )

 

According to White House sources, President Donald Trump reportedly has Cuba in his sights as a new target within a broader strategy aimed at regime change.

A report in Atlantic magazine suggests that discussions within the White House are not only focused on Iran and Venezuela but also include Havana as part of a geopolitical push to reshape the power dynamics in the Western Hemisphere.

Washington insiders whisper that Trump feels he is "on a roll" following recent (and it must be sid, not spectacularly successful,) international maneuvers, bolstering his determination to seek new challenges.

The Atlantic describes conversations among Trump's close circles where there's consideration of increasing pressure on the Cuban regime.

Publicly, Trump has floated the idea of a "friendly takeover" of the island, repeatedly highlighting the severe economic hardships faced by the country.

 Cuba's decline, which began in 1959 when the revolution led by Fidel Castro succeeded in replacing the corrupt regime with an equally corrupt but far less competent communist dictatorship, and fall, which has been a slow motion train wreck that started immediately ater Castro's takeover, is accelerating due to the sanctions, embargoes, lack of income and insufficient aid from its allies Russia and China. 

The writing was on the wall for the communists in Havana since the collapse of the Soviet Union. I'd speculate that a US backed coup is not too far away, this will establish a militarily controlled government to stabilise the country. Cuba will probably end up with a fake puppet democracy controlled by Washington. 

US business interests will then move in. Trump is not about freedom and democracy, hence Venezuela still has the same party in power. However, Trump's bid to disrupt the world order has denied China a main source of oil. He controls where Venezuela's oil goes. And let's be honest, anything that impedes China's bid to usurp all western manufacturing industry benefits all of us in the liberal democracies and offers at least some respite from our political elites' attempts to commit national suicide on behalf of the nations they rule. If in Trump' masterplan Europe is to be written off as collateral damage, then it is up to we Europeans to do something about it.

Cuba's Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) in the Gulf of Mexico is estimated to hold between 4.6 billion and 20 billion barrels of untapped, undiscovered crude oil. The U.S. Geological Survey estimates the most likely volume of technically recoverable undiscovered crude in the North Cuba Basin is 4.6 billion barrels. Deep-sea marine drilling requires vast capital and highly specialised deepwater platforms, which Cuba’s state oil company (CUPET) cannot fund on its own.

A tempting opportunity for The Donald to step in with US money and technical expertise.

It should also be noted that about 25% of Cuba's population has fled to the USA, Canada, Europe and South American nations  over the past 5 years, largely as a result of the regime's human rights abuses. Yet the snivelling gobshites at the United Nations elect the Cuban regime to the international panel which oversees human rights. If it is to fix the problem the Cuban state must remove the dictators, and let the people return and rebuild the relitavely prosperous nation it had been from the 1930s to 50s and work towards a democratic future freed from the authoritarian and delusional communists who now only cling to power so they can continue to exploit the country for their personal benefit. And it appears those who seek fredom can expect no help from the globalists of Britain and the EU.

 Cuba is what communism always becomes, and it is hard for our socialists to let go, as the old saying goes 'in a democracy we can vote out failed leaders but socialism can only be removed with blood on the streets. But the time has come for Cubans, wherever they go, are successful, there is no reason to believe they won't be successful in Cuba after a regime change frees them from the brutal oppression of communism.
