Feb 12, 2026“We are sailing to Cuba, bringing critical humanitarian aid for its people,” the flotilla organizers said on their website. “The Trump administration is strangling the island, cutting off fuel, flights, and critical supplies for survival. The consequences are lethal, for newborns and parents, for the elderly and the sick.”
“That is why we are launching the Nuestra América Flotilla, setting sail from across the Caribbean Sea in solidarity with the Cuban people,” the organizers continued. “And we are asking for your support, to help us prepare the mission and purchase the food and medicine that we will bring to the Cuban people.”
Laudable, but the navy won’t care. And Kegsbreth might confuse them for fishermen.
You can tell the White House but the White House doesn’t care. All they see are hotels, resorts, and dollar signs…
“Drug boats sunk off Cuban coast delivering Krocodil laced Fentanyl manufactured by Claudia Sheinbaum in her state owned factories in Columbia.” NYT Article from March 2026
Columbia, Tennessee or Columbia, South Carolina? It could go either way
Among organizers, I see CodePink, those whose definition of peace is to disarm a country being invaded. Once the Cubans grow more strength to protect themselves against imperialism (any camp), folks like these will be quick to throw them under the bus.
Citations massively needed, unless you think Israel is the one getting invaded
These flotillas never deliver anything, it’s a way to get rubes to fund rich brats yacht holidays through performative art.
You’re just projecting your insecurity about the fact that you do nothing but sit in a dark room performing activism through edgy forum posting.
I personally know people who were organizing the gaza flotilla and can confidently say that this idiot is wrong. People dont let themselves get arrested and tortured by the IDF for fun.
