Yeah, I'd mostly agree in terms of their mentality... But where are they gonna get the weaponry for a proper revolution? Nowhere, unless we supply them with it. It would be easier to just drop a couple Ranger Battalions in and be done with it. I would not complain if my tax payer dollars went to supplying M4s to Cubans. In my opinion, direct interference/assistance shouldn't occur until the Cubans themselves formed a fighting force. That didn't work out so well the last time we tried it. I know. Kennedy hasn't been president for a while though. We could make it work this time if we actually grew a set of nuts. Hahahahahaha!!!!!!! You think that the current administration would do a more thorough job of opposing communism?? Eta I think that congress might be able to do what we fucking pay them to do for once. |

CIA compromised the operation, and set the ex-pats up for major failure. It's a very interesting story. During the Cold War, there was always this speech mentioned where Kruschev talked about a ruse that would make the US think Russia was going to be a partner in peace. Within the military establishment, whisperings and scenarios involving Cuba seemed to surface every so often. It's one of the premises to Red Dawn. We were really uncomfortable with Cuba being partners with the Soviet Union, since they provide strategic depth for a foreign army allied with Cuba. I'm very suspicious of this Comrade Obama BS, to be totally honest. Keep in mind that he is pushing hard to get this done before his term is up. Why the rush? Just another fire being lit by the destroyer from within, from my perspective. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

I'm too drunk to have a rational discussion (just being honest), but it's pretty clear to anyone with an objective viewpoint that he doesn't even attempt to serve America's best interests. The only thing I can't decide at this point is whether he serves his own personal interests, or someone else's. His policies certainly don't improve the US of A as a whole... Edited for grammar. |

The CIA was penetrated by the Soviet NKVD before the CIA was even formed, back in the end of the OSS days.
One of the biggest goals the Command General's Staff had in the Politburo was to establish strategic depth in Latin America, and begin a domino effect as part of the revolution. After a series of colossal "failures" in Eastern Europe, the same CIA doubles working for the KGB then were relocated to Latin American Bureau to repeat the same basic template they used against Czechoslovakia and Hungary, which is... Acting in official capacity as US Foreign Intelligence Services officers of the Clandestine Services, these doubles work in the region building relationships of trust with host nations, defense attache's, supporting allies, and most importantly, the actual resistance groups to the revolution. Before major resistance groups or ex pats trained and equipped by the CIA make their decisive moves, these same CS officers/doubles notify the targeted figures that the operation is getting ready to initiate, so they are prepared. They often would use covert means to execute or capture the resistance fighters in Europe, before Soviet tanks came rolling in. Castro new fully the location and disposition of the US-supplied ex-pats, and what exactly to do to prevent them from establishing a beach head. Kennedy's CIA liaison for Operation Zapata even directly disobeyed his orders when it was time to send in the Nicaraguan pilots in A-26's to destroy Castro's air assets. The Russians are very good at placing doubles where they need them, and are extremely bold about it. |

I think that we should overthrow the Castro government, then lift the embargo. Also, there'd be more utility in embargoing the Chinese, than lifting the embargo on Cuba. I agree.

I'm not interested in sending aid. I am, however, interested in spreading freedom and we're not doing much of that in Cuba with the embargo in place. There are a lot of Cubans in America that are still operating under the fantasy that their property will be returned to them at some point. I assure you that no matter what we do that is not going to happen. I'm doubting ending the embargo will spread freedom, but just give more $ to Castro. I honestly don't care.
