The best thing that ever happened to Cuba, was when his clan kicked out Batista and his mafia paymasters.

farcanell Posted February 24, 2016 Share Posted February 24, 2016 It is the oldest of the three brothers, Fidel and Raul still kicking What a family! The best thing that ever happened to Cuba, was when his clan kicked out Batista and his mafia paymasters. Dedicated revolutionaries and freedom fighters for sure.... They certainly did well in ousting Batista.... But you should stop there. If I need medical attention, I go to a doctor... Legal assistance, a lawyer... Liberation, perhaps, like Castro, Che G..... But in running a country, you need politicians, not revolutionaries and cut throats, and Castro should have recognized this, if not for that great mound of power dumped on his doorstep.

I don;t do "FEEBLE"......Just read the post, it says what it says. Digest if possible for you? Then keep Schtoom. I was there when Batista was in power, and soon after he was kicked out. and a couple of times since. How was Castro expected to improve conditions with the stranglehold, of the paranoid communist haters, (the "Great US of A" (now that is sarcasm, In case you still fail to recognise it) stifling any attempt to improve conditions for the people.

ableguy Posted March 1, 2016 Share Posted March 1, 2016 kingdratsab I hope that this is your feeble attempt at sarcasm, otherwise I would assume you have not visited Cuba lately. Try looking at history and understanding the world as it was then not now, you are obviously I'll educated and uninformed.i could go on but doubt you would get my drift.
