1 | One Puerto Rican Island's 135-Year History of Struggle and Victory | Culebra, Nosin'i Pôrtô Rikô: 135 Taona Nitolomana Sy Nandresena |
2 | The US Navy used the island of Culebra, a municipality of Puerto Rico, as a military training camp for many years, polluting their land and water still to this day. | Nampiasa ny nosy Culebra, kaominin'i Pôrtô Rikô, tahaka ny toby fanofanana miaramila ny Navy Amerikana nandritra ny taona maro, ary nandoto ny taniny sy ny ranony hatramin'izao. |

5 | The Puerto Rican island municipality of Culebra is famous for its beaches, widely considered some of the most beautiful in the world. | Malaza i Culebra, nosy kaominin'i Pôrto Rikô, noho ireo moron-dranomasiny, izay be mpihevitra ho isan'ireo tsara indrindra eran-tany. |
6 | However, there's more to Culebra than sun, sea and sand. | Kanefa, tsy ny masoandro sy ny ranomasina ary ny fasika ihany no mamaritra an'i Culebra. |
7 | The people of Culebra were witness to and protagonists in a history full of resistance and struggle over their land and water, a large part of which was occupied by the US Navy for military training bases. | Vavolombelona sady mpandray anjara tanatinà tantara feno fanoherana sy tolona ho an'ny taniny sy ny ranony ny vahoakan'i Culebra, ny ampahany betsaka tamin'izany dia teo ambany fifehezan'ny Tafika Amerikana ho an'ireo toby fanofanany miaramila. |

11 | For many years the people of Culebra had to live their lives amidst explosions, bombs, bullets and pollution caused by the Navy, who secretly suggested to the Puerto Rican government that they get rid of the island municipalities of Vieques and Culebra and send their inhabitants to the main island of Puerto Rico; they would even send the dead from their graves. | Tao anatin'ny taona maro dia tsy maintsy niaina teo ambany fipoahana, baomba, tifitifitra ary fandotoana nataon'ny Navy ny vahoaka tao Culebra, io tafika io izay nanao sosokevitra miafinafina tamin'ny governemanta ao Pôrto Rikô ny mba hanaisorany ireo nosy kaominina, dia i Vieques s'i Culebra, ary handefa ireo mponina any amin'ny nosiben'i Pôrtô Rikô; na ireo maty aza dia hafindran'izy hiala amin'ny fasany. |
12 | The Navy's intention was to gain the exclusive use of both islands and ban the people of Vieques and Culebra from setting foot on their land again, even if it was to bring flowers to the gravestones of their loved ones. | Ny tetiky ny Navy tamin'izany dia ny ahafahany mampiasa tanteraka ireo nosy roa ireo ary handrara ny vahoakan'i Vieques s'i Culebra tsy hanitsaka ny tanindrazany intsony, na dia ny hanatitra voninkazo ho an'ireo maty aza. |
13 | Due to the macabre nature of the Navy's proposal, it became known as “Plan Dracula.” | Noho ny endrik'ilay fangatahan'ny Navy mampahatsiaro fahafatesana, dia lasa fantatra tamin'ny anarana “Drafitra Dracula” ilay izy. |
14 | Nevertheless, the people of Culebra triumphed, succeeding in sending the Navy them from their island in 1975. | Na izany aza, nandresy ny vahoakan'i Culebra, izay nahavita namerina ny Navy hiala amin'ny taniny tamin'ny 1975. |
15 | Vieques expelled the Navy in 2003 after years of civil disobedience campaigns and the efforts of social movements and individuals across the political spectrum. | Nandroaka ny Navy kosa i Vieques tamin'ny 2003 taorian'ireo taona maro nanaovana hetsi-panentanana ho an'ny tsy fankatoavan'ny olom-pirenena sy ireo ezaky ny hetsi-panoherana sosialy sy ireo olon-tsotra manoloana ny pôlitika. |
16 | Remnants of the US Navy such as this tank still remain, contaminating the beaches of Culebra. | Mbola mitoetra ireo potipotiky ny Navy Amerikana, tahaka ity fiara fenti-miady ity, ka mandoto ireo moron-dranomasin'i Culebra. |

19 | Some memoirs of these battles have been compiled in the documentary called “Culebra 135-40“, produced by the Puerto Rican monthly Diálogo UPR. | Navondrona anatin'ilay fanadihadiana antsoina hoe “Culebra 135-40” ireo tsiaro sasany tamin'ireo ady, izay novokarin'ny gazety ao Pôrtô Rikô mpivoaka isam-bolana, “Diálogo UPR”. |
20 | The film is part of the publication's special series in celebration of the 135 years since the founding of Culebra, and 40 years since the Navy left. | Tafiditra anatin'ireo fizarazarana manokana ataon'ity mpamokatra ity io horonantsary io, ho fankalazana ny faha-135 taonan'ny nananganana an'i Culebra, sy ny faha-40 taona taorian'ny nialan'ny Navy. |
