But it soon became apparent. even to those who had doubted. that the Castro movement was neither nationalist nor democratic. that it was controlled by a small number of hard core Communists. bent on converting Cuba into a totalitarian satellite of world communism. The- Cuban people soon came to realize. too. that the Castro regime was not a reform movement. but a quisling tyranny created by the Kremlin as a base for the subversion of Latin America. The 200.000 Cuban refugees who abandoned everything they possessed to escape from Castros paradise. attest to the intense hatred of the Cuban people for this regime of oppression and misery and national treason. The thousands of Cuban patriots who are fighting in the mountains. in open defiance of Castros firing squads. also attest to this. Every day witnesses new acts of resistance by the Cuban people. while new guerrilla bands and new resistance leaders continue to spring up to take the place of those who have fallen in the struggle.
