Re: [Biofuel] Cuba Willing to Send Immediate Medical Help
I agree, Cuba is known for high quality medical professionals and it would be a good help. It is not necessary to speculate in any political plots, when help is offered in crisis situations. Cuba cannot be worse than others who tie their help programs to image building.

Re: [Biofuel] Cuba Willing to Send Immediate Medical Help
Castro: U.S. hasn't responded to Katrina offer From Lucia Newman CNN Monday, September 5, 2005; Posted: 11:48 a.m. EDT (15:48 GMT) HAVANA, Cuba (CNN) -- Cuban President Fidel Castro told more than 1,500 doctors Sunday night that American officials had made absolutely no response to his offer to send them to the U.S. Gulf Coast to help victims of Hurricane Katrina. Castro, a longtime adversary of the United States, initially offered to send 1,100 doctors and at least 26 tons of supplies and equipment, but the Communist leader announced Sunday during a televised speech that he had increased the number of physicians to 1,586. Each doctor would carry about 27 pounds of medicine. You could all be there right now lending your services, but 48 hours have passed since we made this offer, and we have received absolutely no response, Castro said at Havana's Palace of the Revolution. We continue to wait patiently for a response. In the meantime, all of you will be taking intensive courses in immunology and also something that I should be doing -- an intensive brush-up course in English. Besides Cuba, several other countries and international agencies have offered money and supplies to the hurricane victims. (Full story) In the past, Cuba has refused U.S. offers of aid, the most recent following Hurricane Dennis. That storm killed more than 10 people in the Caribbean island nation in July. At that time, Castro said he would not accept help from Washington because of the U.S. trade embargo against his country. The United States has no diplomatic relations with Cuba. Castro has named the Cuban rescue team the Henry Reeve Brigade in honor of an American who fought with Cuba's rebel forces during the Cuban War of Independence against Spain that began in 1895. The doctors who have been mobilized went to South Asia after the December tsunami and have worked in other disasters. Find this article at: http://www.cnn.com/2005/WORLD/americas/09/05/katrina.cuba/index.html I guess George Bush is ignoring Fidel Castro, much like Mike Weaver was ignoring Kieth Addison (or was it the other way around?). Perhaps the Cuban doctors should brush up on English phrases like, Don't shoot, I am not a spy!, Yes, this medicine is legal (wink,wink). and Insurance, you don't need no stinking insurance.

The head of state participated this afternoon in the Cuban television program The Informative Round Table, dedicated to the tragic situation in various states of the northern nation that were in the path of the devastating storm. Fidel Castro said that at 11.32 am local time on August 30 he instructed the Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Pérez Roque to convey to the American government Cuba´s condolences for the loss of human life caused by the cyclone. At that time, he noted, the magnitude of the human and material catastrophe in Louisiana, Mississipi and Alabama was not known. The message, conveyed to the American authorities not only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Havana but also by the Cuban Interests Section in Washington, indicated Cuba´s willingness to send doctors and necessary medical teams to those states, as well as three field hospitals and the personnel required to staff them. He indicated that in spite of their bilateral political and ideological differences, the island has always maintained a principled position in eventualities such as this, and he recalled the attitude assumed by Havana following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. On that occasion the Cuban government was possibly the first to offer assistance to the United States, when it put the island´s airports at the disposal of airliners flying towards that nation, he said. Fidel Castro said that the offer of August 30 did not seek publicity, and this was stressed in the message sent to the American authorities. He referred to statements of the spokesman of the US State Department Thursday evening about the offers of aid received by Washington from various parts of the world, which failed to mention that of the biggest of the Antilles. President Castro informed that early tomorrow morning Cuba could send to the areas of greatest need the first 100 general medicine specialists, complete with backpacks containing 24 kilograms of essential medicines and diagnostic instruments for emergency situations. Equally, within the next two days Cuba could send another thousand specialists in general medicine, plus equipment. Fidel Castro emphasized that these are all professionals with extensive medical experience tested in the most difficult sanitary conditions of the Third World, who also have English language proficiency. fg/ool/jwp -- Bob Allen http://ozarker.org/bob Science is what we have learned about how to keep from fooling ourselves - Richard Feynman ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/ _ Dont just search.

Re: [Biofuel] Cuba Willing to Send Immediate Medical Help
My last post laid out the whole evil plan. The Canadians arrive as emergency helpers and meet up with the Cuban specially trained doctors and bam! Invasion team! A pincer movement, and we never even saw it coming. As the National Guard and all of its helicopters are gone, we're sitting ducks. Once they secure new Orleans, the rest of the South is just a matter of time. Pretty soon there'll be no gumbo, poor boys, etouffe, jambalya - as the Army travels on its stomach, we'll be forced to surrender. You may laugh, just like my girlfriend, parents, brothers and sisters, neighbors, social worker and therapist, but we'll see who's right. On a funny but cynical note, one New Orleans refugees was overheard muttering: Maybe we should rename New Orleans Baghdad then maybe some US money will flow out way.

The head of state participated this afternoon in the Cuban television program The Informative Round Table, dedicated to the tragic situation in various states of the northern nation that were in the path of the devastating storm. Fidel Castro said that at 11.32 am local time on August 30 he instructed the Cuban Foreign Minister Felipe Pérez Roque to convey to the American government Cuba´s condolences for the loss of human life caused by the cyclone. At that time, he noted, the magnitude of the human and material catastrophe in Louisiana, Mississipi and Alabama was not known. The message, conveyed to the American authorities not only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Havana but also by the Cuban Interests Section in Washington, indicated Cuba´s willingness to send doctors and necessary medical teams to those states, as well as three field hospitals and the personnel required to staff them. He indicated that in spite of their bilateral political and ideological differences, the island has always maintained a principled position in eventualities such as this, and he recalled the attitude assumed by Havana following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. On that occasion the Cuban government was possibly the first to offer assistance to the United States, when it put the island´s airports at the disposal of airliners flying towards that nation, he said. Fidel Castro said that the offer of August 30 did not seek publicity, and this was stressed in the message sent to the American authorities. He referred to statements of the spokesman of the US State Department Thursday evening about the offers of aid received by Washington from various parts of the world, which failed to mention that of the biggest of the Antilles. President Castro informed that early tomorrow morning Cuba could send to the areas of greatest need the first 100 general medicine specialists, complete with backpacks containing 24 kilograms of essential medicines and diagnostic instruments for emergency situations. Equally, within the next two days Cuba could send another thousand specialists in general medicine, plus equipment. Fidel Castro emphasized that these are all professionals with extensive medical experience tested in the most difficult sanitary conditions of the Third World, who also have English language proficiency. fg/ool/jwp ___ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel
