    Cuba is a giant prison shaped like an island. All one has to do is to contrast it with neighbouring nations like Bahamas, Barbados, Trinidad & Tobago to see how poor and repressive it it. All these Latin American leaders that love to go kiss Fidel's behind are hypocrites for helping keep him and power. Tyranny has to end in our hemisphere once and for all. Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Bolivia deserve better than the bloodthirsty, power hungry lunatics running their economies to the ground. Fidel is Pinochet, there is no difference. There is no such thing as a little bit fascism, doesn't matter if it's from the right, or from the left. Repression is repression, doesn't matter if it wears an olive uniform and a beard, or a black uniform and it wears a mustache.

    “Tyranny has to end in our hemisphere once and for all. Venezuela, Cuba, Nicaragua, and Bolivia”
    There still are these old dinosaurs disgorging their vomits all over. Well the Jurassic age is now defunct, and soon they will see their beloved empire crumble. These are the ones that would keep quiet about the “good dictators” and “good terrorists” that the empire nurture (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia, Honduras, etc. For these people the world is divided according to their interests only. There are “good” and “bad” presidents, dictators, terrorists, media, citizen, aunties, it all depends where they are WITH US or AGAINST US, that's all.
