ICEMAN! Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 7 minutes ago, Highmark said: Way more than it should have been. I'm no fan of China so don't even go there. Do some research on when Castro emptied his prision's and but them on boats to Florida. Caused massive problems in the US. I won't even go into the whole Cuban Missile deal where Castro was hoping for WWIII. There are quotes from Russian Premier Khrushchev proving this. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mariel_boatlift Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev had to remind Castro that the point of putting Soviet missiles in Cuba was to further Communist interests, not spark Armageddon. “This is insane!” Khrushchev exploded at the time. “Fidel wants to drag us into the grave with him!” http://thefederalist.com/2016/11/27/may-fidel-castros-crimes-humanity-rest-grave/ How many times did the CIA attempt to assassinate him? I can't find an exact number other than "numerous." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much like the Dominican. actually no its nothing like the Dominican with their high crime and extreme poverty but you knew that. You can walk anywhere in Cuba without any issues this simply not true in other poor destinations where you don't dare leave the fenced areas for tourists People go back yearly to Cuba and have for decades. And will until the USA takes over again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People go back to Cuba because it's dirt cheap. Everything there like food etc is awful. Never go back myself but lots of friends go there on the cheap. Only reason they statr besides the beautiful beaches Edited November 28, 2016 by Kev144 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did go to the Dominican and drove to other cities, like many places you need to know what you are doing. There are many places I would go to before ever considering the cheap fuck vacation.

revkevsdi Posted November 28, 2016 Share Posted November 28, 2016 Who wouldn't consider him remarkable? A revolutionary who stood up against a corrupt US backed leader and won. Who managed to hang onto power against a US. embargo. Who managed to survive CIA assassination attempts and live to 90. Who managed to play the US and USSR off each other without getting crushed. Who after being cut off from the US still managed to have decent health care and education. Call his regime repressive but the incarceration rate is lower than in the US> They are better off than Jamaica financially and have a far lower crime rate. That is all remarkable. Now, making his family secretly wealthy while keeping the inhabitants poor, that's not remarkable, that's just normal dictator stuff.
