Reminds me of the old Soviet joke.

"So long as the bosses pretend to pay us, we will pretend to work."

Read all your posts about Cuba in this thread. Just remember something, if your government had not propped up a dictator called Batista and suppressed the demands for democratic reform in Cuba by the general populace or turned the island into a corrupt brothel then maybe Castro would not have taken over with huge support.

Also I don't think you can lecture Cuba's leadership on morals. It was the CIA who helped plan the bombing off the civilian Air Cubana airliner which killed all 73 passengers on board. http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cubana_Flight_455. You still have not handed over the bomber who openly lived in Florida. Go USA!

You seem to pontificate a lot on Cuba and the wider socialist world, how many times have you been? As for your statement about nuking countries for having a different system of government than the one you believe in,

I never said the US was perfect. It's done plenty of shitty things and I've said as much in this very thread:

America's done plenty of wrong but saying we were as dirty as the Soviets isn't true. They fucked up a lot of Africa, the 'stans and half of Europe.

Furthermore, I never said a goddamn thing about nuking countries for having a different system of government than the one I believe in. I'm going to be a nice guy and assume English isn't your first language.

What I said was:

Quote:

Castro wanted the USSR to nuke us.

That's a historical fact.
