Republic of Puerto Rico

category international | rights, freedoms and repression | opinion/analysis author Wednesday June 18, 2008 22:47author by Nesty Report this post to the editors

Without looking at the past and blame things that were left to do, confident that the future of Puerto Rico depends on their children, that true independence depends on them and not the will of an empire increasingly eager to hold new lands. Booting the shackles imposed by the visitor, who said that visits send in our home?

The island of Borinquen suffers from the evil of ill visitors. The Spaniards who arrived five centuries ago are considered by Rene Perez and Eduardo Cabra ill visitors and the "Gringos" 110 years ago worst visitor. Not only do they think so, a people which rejects the presence of the intruders want to be free once and for all.
The U.S. government was in Cuba, the Philippines and Puerto Rico after intervening in the war between Cubans and Spaniards organized by José Martí, and launched in 1895 and had its denouement in the bay of the city of Santiago de Cuba, where he was military destroyed the Spanish fleet. The Filipinos had declared them to their colonizers, the Yankees also come into conflict with those excuses and promises. Spain signed the capitulation and instead grant independence for which they fought and died thousands of Cubans and Filipinos in their respective countries gave the Americans the colonies that he remained in americas and Asia. We have been victims of imperialist interested relations since our emergence as a nation. The struggle of Cubans did not cease and achieved at least a republic in 1902, which was not where everyone wanted but at least constituted an important step for the island does not become a star in the constellation more American. In the Philippines died in 10 years over one million in the struggles against the new occupants.
Were did the same resistance in Puerto Rico? It had to await the twentieth century react to the boricuas and began fighting. After laws and reforms are aware of the first armed insurrection in 1950, where he rejected the proposed "Commonwealth (ELA)," a condition that has at present. The fight was suffocated with bombings at various locations and the residence of Governor Creole first in Puerto Rico. During that uprising proclaimed full independence of the Republic of Puerto Rico. The struggles of small groups opposed to the status of commonwealth were felt even in the United States itself, few results, but endures the courage and ideas.
At present there is a movement that has to constantly check the Americans, I do not understand why, the boricuas be the first to demand their independence, they know that their territory is owned by the gringos and that make and break when they are come in wins. A few weeks ago took a leap aspiring Presidents of USA, giving speech in English, much as if they were to understand, were not even treated as subject to a decent future for the land.
It is time that Puerto Rico itself take charge of their destiny, simply being a stage show more than shameful squandering of millions on campaigns and pacotilla when at the same time hundreds of children die by lack of food and medicine. The small patches of the West Indies has its own culture, a language that never bowed Spanish into English, its people is unique, very different from the Americans, people who run the Latino blood in the veins, and cheerful worker, who dreams of a prosperous future and crédula any message, no matter where or who come.
Every day are less those who believe in the gringos, the visitors have been worse, pity that there are residents, ill residents who receive him with open arms, and obey your teeth out, making them happy in a land they believe belongs to them . When Puerto Rico will be independent? That will decide what their people, the world expects much from you, no cree en pretexts that can take this good news, Kosovo's independence has created expectations in different places, Catalonia, Basque Country, Northern Ireland, Puerto Rico and other regions fighting for their independence, liberation or autonomy. De Borinquen want independence, a status that does not belong to the Yankees, so that its people will not elect a governor, as is done in the States and for Americans than any president invade that territory with the lies inherent in a campaign Presidential, is intended to be conducted in Puerto Rico presidential elections, leaving a president elected by the people who represent them and feels a table, together with their counterparts in the area to determine the future of the region without the Americans intervene and impose their will by force.
Several personalities of American history who have expressed their desire to see Puerto Rico free. Antonio Maceo, one of the official Cubans who fought the Spanish regime in the two war of independence of Cuba said: "When Cuba is independent of the Government seek to be constituted, to permit freedom of Puerto Rico, because I would not surrender slave leaving the sword that portion of americas. " Unfortunately Maceo died in combat in the year 1896, yet the United States had not intervened in the Spanish-Cuban War and Spanish-Filipino, to be alive in 1898 another rooster crows, the history of Puerto Rico was different.
Without looking at the past and blame things that were left to do, confident that the future of Puerto Rico depends on their children, that true independence depends on them and not the will of an empire increasingly eager to hold new lands. Booting the shackles imposed by the visitor, who said that visits send in our home?
