Would love to go there.  I've been to the country just north of there; currently run by a nut.

It's an amazing county.  Fantastic music (Son), great cigars, amazing architecture, old cars, and lousy food. LOL.  Some nice beaches also!  But overall, very nice people.

just asking...when was the last time Cuba committed terrorism in the states?

....or anywhere else? Ridiculous nonsense, and hypocritical from this unpleasant source.

They commit terrorist against their citizens every day.  It's horrible how they are treated.  And yet, he lived like a king.  Horrible leader.

Quote

 

During his nearly five decades of rule in Cuba, Fidel Castro built a repressive system that punished virtually all forms of dissent, a dark legacy that lives on even after his death.

 

During Castro’s rule, thousands of Cubans were incarcerated in abysmal prisons, thousands more were harassed and intimidated, and entire generations were denied basic political freedoms. Cuba made improvements in health and education, though many of these gains were undermined by extended periods of economic hardship and by repressive policies.

It is a fact that the only Country to have plotted to assassinate a President of the United States was Israel. 

Link to credible sources? Don't worry, nobody's expecting you to answer.

Meanwhile, the only country that has tried to assassinate the President of Cuba multiple times: USA.

 

Assassination attempts on Fidel Castro

 

"The United States' Central Intelligence Agency made several unsuccessful attempts to assassinate Fidel Castro during his time as the president of Cuba."

So no Trump Havana Hotel I guess?

 

 

Perhaps missed a boat there or perhaps was rebuffed by Cuba with a bid to return Cuba to “America’s Playground” of the Batista/Mafia gambling years. Wonder if the rebuff would have been on philosophical grounds or looking at Trump’s business record of failing in Hotel/Casino management?

Pompeo is now a nobody. Just had to cancel his trip to europe because no one would meet him. Brilliant.

Likely talking about the Stern Gang and Truman, which was actually before the State of Israel was set up.
