Just curious if any of the folks above hurling invective at Castro (not that I am a Castro apologist by any means) have ever done any reading in Cuban history after the Spanish-American War: The Platt Ammendment, the Machado and Batista dictatorships propped up by US corporations, the poverty and human rights abuses Cubans were subjected to long before Fidel, etc. Might change their perspective- or at least their rhetoric- a bit.
