Sometimes I forgot that I was born when Vietnam was still being comprehensively embargoed by the US.

The economic sanction was lifted when I was 15 and my life change drastically since then.

Lemme tell ya, sanction sucks.
In the sanction time:
- No fresh milk except this condensed milk. It was like super fancy at that time.
- No soft drinks like Coke, pepsi...
- Virtually no candies or cookies except when I was sick or it was Tet holiday, my mom would buy me some Hai Chau cookies. ImageImage
- No clean water. We had to drink yellow water from our well.
- No stable electricity so of course there was no fridge, no oven, no electric rice cooker...
- No gas/electric stove. I had to cook with straw/wood stove my whole childhood. ImageImage

I visited #Cuba in 2017, saw a large part of the country and talked to the people there myself. They have healthcare, housing, and education as guaranteed human rights! (thread)
There is no homelessness, nor is there student or medical debt in Cuba. All this despite years of sabotage and terrorist plots planned by the United States.
It’s only the right-wing Cubans in the US who fled justice after the revolution that say it’s a dictatorship and make up terrible stories about the country. It’s easy to debunk their lies!

Prior to Trump's speech at the #UNGA, White House officials told the press that his speech would focus on US national security interests. He did not disappoint, with his speech delivering threat after threat to nations across the globe. Video here: haaretz.com/us-news/.premi…
The most immediate threat delivered by Trump was addressed to Iran. After ludicrously arguing that Iran is responsible for funding all terrorism across the globe, including in Syria (where it has been fighting US-backed terrorists), Trump stated his intent for further aggression.
In the naked tongue of imperialist barbarism, Trump stated that he will continue US sanctions and that "more will follow" those due in November. The objective of US policy toward Iran nothing less than the complete destruction of its sovereignty. #HandsOffIran
