7 years ago, Obama’s Bro Ben Rhodes attended Fidel Castro’s funeral. Happy Anniversary!
May he burn in hell
Seven years ago today, Ben Rhodes had the audacity to attend the funeral of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro as a special guest of the communist regime. The failed novelist and former White House national security adviser, notorious for aiding Barack Obama in appeasing America’s enemies, mourned the ruthless strongman alongside official delegations from China, Russia, and Iran.
American taxpayers footed the bill for this disgraceful trip.
Rhodes was the obvious choice to represent the United States at the commie dictator’s funeral due to his role as the “principal interlocutor with the Cuban government” during the Obama administration, as stated by then-White House press secretary Josh Earnest, who also defended the Rhodes-led initiative to reward the Iranian government with hundreds of millions of dollars that they could then use to fund terrorist groups like Hamas.
In a captivating New York Times profile published in May 2016, Rhodes boasted about his supernatural “mind meld” with Obama, widely regarded as the worst living former president of the United States. “I don’t know anymore where I begin and Obama ends,” he arrogantly declared. Rhodes also took pride in his ability to manipulate journalists who “literally know nothing” about the topics they’re assigned to cover.
More recently, Rhodes has been penning his own thought-provoking columns for the New York Times and launching scathing attacks on Israel for defending itself against Hamas, the Iranian-funded terrorist group responsible for the deaths of over 1,200 Israelis on Oct. 7.
Happy Anniversary, bro!
(Rot in hell, Fidel.)
Why is the timing of Rhodes’s attendance at Castro’s funeral significant, considering the election of President-elect Donald Trump and his promises to take a tougher stance against dictators
The death of a brutal dictator who oppressed and silenced the Cuban people for over five decades. This anniversary serves as a reminder of the misguided and dangerous foreign policy decisions made during the Obama administration.
Ben Rhodes, known for his manipulation of the media and the American public, attended the funeral of Fidel Castro in Havana on December 4, 2016. The fact that Rhodes was invited as a special guest by the Cuban regime speaks volumes about the disregard for human rights and democratic values that defined their relationship.
During his time in the White House, Rhodes played a pivotal role in shaping the Obama administration’s narrative on international affairs. As the deputy national security adviser for strategic communications, he crafted a false image of the Iran nuclear deal, downplaying its flaws and exaggerating its supposed benefits. Rhodes admitted to manipulating the media to sell the public on this controversial agreement, showing a complete lack of transparency and disregard for the truth.
Rhodes’s attendance at Castro’s funeral is a disturbing reflection of his alignment with authoritarian regimes. While the rest of the world rightly condemned Castro’s oppressive regime, Rhodes chose to pay his respects to a man responsible for countless human rights abuses. This raises serious questions about his judgment and commitment to promoting democracy and freedom.
Furthermore, the timing of Rhodes’s presence at the funeral is worth noting. Just a few weeks prior, President-elect Donald Trump had been elected on a platform that promised a tougher stance against dictators and a reevaluation of the Obama administration’s foreign policy. Rhodes’s presence at Castro’s funeral can be seen as a deliberate snub to the incoming administration and a demonstration of loyalty to the failed policies of the past.
The fact that Rhodes, a former White House official, would choose to align himself with a dictator like Castro is deeply troubling. It highlights a pattern of disregard for human rights and a willingness to appease America’s enemies. It calls into question the values and principles that guide Rhodes’s actions and decisions.
As we mark the seventh anniversary of Rhodes’s attendance at Fidel Castro’s funeral, it is important to remember the legacy of oppression and suffering inflicted by the Cuban regime. It is a stark reminder of the need for vigilant and principled leadership in shaping America’s foreign policy.
The Obama administration’s approach to Cuba, as well as other foreign policy issues, was marked by appeasement and a lack of moral clarity. The decision to attend Castro’s funeral as a special guest was just one example of the misguided and dangerous policies that characterized that era.
Moving forward, it is imperative that we learn from past mistakes and prioritize the promotion of democracy and human rights in our foreign relations. We must not allow the actions of individuals like Ben Rhodes to define America’s approach to the world. True leadership requires a commitment to standing up for freedom and justice, even in the face of adversity.
On this somber anniversary, let us remember the victims of Castro’s regime and renew our dedication to the principles that define our great nation. May we never forget the importance of fighting for liberty and justice, both at home and abroad.
