Russia Urges US To Stop Cuba Embargo

<< < (4/6) > >>

Rugged Monk:
Well 'fuck Russia' never seemed like a solution bruva! Haha, but it is good to discuss these things because it is truly building. Human beings are the custodians of the world, in all seriousness.


The solution would be to lift the embargo and for Cuba to hold democratic elections, Castro said Cuba will inevitablly have to become a democracy...

But democracy isn't really the issue, what Amerikkka can't accept is nationalised sectors of the Cuban economy maintained by a Cuban constitution. People find issue with anything nationalised because people have been conditioned into supporting a totally global economy. However, history has shown a country with no countrol over it's own resources has no control over it's own destiny.


Heres an interesting piece of photojournalism:





First prize in the Spot News Singles category of the 2007 World Press Photo contest by Nigerian photographer Akintunde Akinleye for Reuters, showing a man rinsing his face after a gas pipeline explosion in Lagos, Nigeria.


Nigeria is the world's 8th largest exporter of gas, yet it is one of the world's poorest. The oil industry is totally privatised. The man in that picture is washing his dome; after an armed gang had just hijacked a gas pipeline and syphoned off gas, locals moved in after the militia left to get some from the burst pipeline, however the shit exploded killing over 300 people....that picture shows some of the aftermath.

People in that country stay in poverty while foreign corporations steal the resources from the earth God gave them.

^I just read about that today in one of those things people leave on coffee tables...magazines.

Nigeria is dirt poor, the population lives in poverty while a small few live in filthy luxury.

Low Key:
I said fuck Russia because I feel they should butt out of something that doesn't affect them. That is my opinion, and certainly while slightly boarish, it's still conducive to the discussion and moves it forward.

Capitalism is just as evil as communism. Fuck the US.  All of you morons didn't learn after Sep.11, and look where the country is now. 2 wars, and a recession. All because not one person, learned a thing. America is evil, religion is evil, capitalism is evil, and every single person is evil for living shallow, pointless, material driven lives.
