FACTS ABOUT CITIZENS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA EXECUTED IN THE FIRING SQUADS OF COMMUNIST CUBA

Robert Otis Fuller, citizen of the United States of America was executed in a firing squad in Cuba at 25 years of age.

Robert Otis Fuller, was a native born American that fought arm in hand the usurpations of the Communist system in Cuba. Robert Fuller was descendant of an American citizen that acquired a farm in Holguin, Province of Oriente in Cuba at the beginning of the Republic in 1902. With hard work Robert’s grandfather succeeded in transforming his farm in a productive business. Robert was an American who loved passionately the warm people in the tropical island.

Since an early age Robert knew what Communism was all about. At an early age he enrolled in the U.S Army. He served with honors defending the freedom of South Korea when the wild North Korean Marxist adventurers invaded, the same type of Communist adventurers that took Cuba. He knew the Marxist rhetoric is totally disassociated from their intentions and methods of imposing their exploitation.

When the dictator Castro got to power in 1959 he consolidated his power and began to steal property. That was the end of distributed democratic capitalism and the beginning of state capitalism. They began confiscating the large proprietors and ended confiscating even the small street vendors and shoe shiners boxes.

These usurpations gave rise to spontaneous peasant guerrillas and urban conspiracies across the whole island. See Circuito Sur in Spanish for more on this.

Robert Fuller due to his love for freedom and economic democracy joined those who opposed the regime. The government confiscated their farm and he was a young person full of energy. He joined the group of Armantino Feria that took over a portion of the mountains of Oriente Province with a group of guerrilla forces. These guerrilla forces were everywhere in the island as the Vendee resistance in the French revolution. For more on these guerrilla forces see the Spanish menu under “Indio Feria.”

Fuller landed in Cuba in the zone of Navas with twenty-five more men. There were another two Americans in the same group. They operated in the zone until the communist troops circled them with thousands men. The leader Feria was wounded and killed on the spot. Fuller with others was captured on October 1960. Robert Fuller went through a Communist summary trial. In these trials there is no defense lawyer per say and the civilians attending the trial scream death penalty while the defendant is trying to talk.

The whole group was condemned within two days to capital punishment. The group included the two other Americans Anthony Zarba, Alan D Thompson and seven Cubans. The others were killed in action.
