The CIA is targeting Cuba... again.

The author argues that the CIA's new covert offensive against Cuba under the Trump administration, overseen by Marco Rubio, repeats historical patterns of U.S. clandestine operations against the island since 1959, including the Bay of Pigs invasion and Operation AMTRUNK. The article claims that the CIA has expanded its operations by increasing agents and informants within Cuba, deploying satellites for intelligence gathering, and incorporating cyber warfare specialists to implement the 'Monroe Doctrine' in the Caribbean. A secret task force is reportedly being created to sow division and destabilize the Cuban government, aiming to create conditions for an internal coup. According to reports, the CIA plans to place pro-U.S. leaders in positions of power, leading to a 'regime change rather than a government change.' Cuba's foreign affairs deputy minister, Carlos Fernández de Cossío, responded that these intentions are not surprising, as Cuba has long been a target of CIA espionage, subversion, and destabilization efforts.

Bias read (Progressive): The article frames U.S. actions as imperialist and emphasizes historical patterns of American interference in Cuba, using terms like 'imperialist lesson,' 'dirty tricks,' and 'maximum pressure campaign.' It highlights Cuba's resilience against past CIA operations and criticizes the current U.S. push
