    Episode 10: Why Cuba Is America's Most Dangerous Neighbor

    Is Cuba approaching its biggest turning point in more than six decades? In this explosive episode of Infinite War Reloaded, Hugo Acha and Erik Cartelle expose the hidden realities behind the Cuban regime, from the military-controlled GAESA empire and political repression to the growing role of Marco Rubio and the Trump administration in shaping U.S. policy toward Cuba. As pressure mounts on Havana, one question matters more than ever: What comes after the Castro system? This conversation explores why Cuba is not Venezuela, why the regime's economic model is built on control rather than socialism, and why any future transition must begin with the release of political prisoners, the restoration of human rights, and real democratic reform, not cosmetic economic changes. If Cuba changes, the consequences will extend far beyond the island, reshaping the balance of power across Latin America and the Western Hemisphere.

For us, the answer is simple: freedom, democracy, and the right of Cubans to determine their own future.

    Episode 2 - What happens when a regime’s influence extends far beyond its borders?

    In this episode of Infinite War, legendary Cuban-American Tony Costa recounts his life in pre-revolutionary Cuba and exposes how the Castro regime transformed the island into a repressive, profit-driven state. He discusses mass confiscations, Cuba’s military and medical deployments abroad, human and labor trafficking, and the rise of GAESA as a centralized economic power. Costa contrasts Cuba’s lost prosperity with its current corruption and humanitarian crisis, explains how the regime markets itself abroad, and argues for a return to free markets, property rights, and political freedom to restore Cuba’s future. The interview combines first-hand experience, historical context, and urgent warnings about Cuba’s ongoing threat to regional stability and human rights.
