History of Fidel Castro and Cuba - good read
M Dogg™:
Also about Castro... his alright... I have no beef with him. Before Cuba was basically a colony for the United States, with U.S. food companies owning 80% of Cuban land, and Castro by crook took over Cuba and took back the land for Cuba... well the government of Cuba. It's better to be independent and Communist than to be dependent on another country. Viva Castro

Nah... Castro was seen as the person that liberated Cuba from Yankee rule, but now his an outdated old man that people are just waiting to die so they can move on. There's nothing wrong with him, he hasn't had anyone killed since Batista's people who killed thousands of Cubans, Castro usually sends his criminals to the United States as refugees... lol. But now his just an old man who is out of touch with reality, kind of sad really.

After the Kennedy assasination, Malcolm X said that it was a case of "The Chicken's Coming Home To Roost!" This appears to be an accurate statement considering Kennedy ordered many attempts on Castro's life.
What the US government hates so much about Cuba is not that they are communist, what they hate is that when Fidel came to power he cut into their ownership of 80% of Cuba's land. Like I said before, when the US government says someone is a threat to world stability, what they really mean is that they are a threat to America's economic interests.

very well concluded.
Castro did some sassy shit though. Like sending criminals to the US claiming they are political refugees like MDogg mentioned.
