Dear Guest, Duck and weave, dodge and hide as much as you like and invent "reasons" for as long as you like - The fact remains Kennedy did not take this to the United Nations. He could have done so.

Sanctions continue. Castro continues despite assasination attempt after assasination attempt.

Am I asking awkward questions comparing Kennedy with Bush ?

And whilst Castro is no angel, to compare his regime and records on civil liberties with Saddam H is pure rubbish.
