    One thing is clear:
    The USG is unable to remove Cuba from the list of failed-states.

    Can we add the Argentine govt to the list and ask for a drone strike on the casa Rosada and all La Campora's offices.

    Of course you can!
    You can then take that list and stick it halfway up your rectum and pretend you are a paper plane.

    Possibilities are endless...

    They can remove Cuba from this list, please them on a friends list.....whatever and whatever. It does not matter. Until the sanctions are lifted......but the US Congress, Cuba will still be Cuba.

    I wonder how long communist Cuba can repress their people? For those who believe in the Cuban model, who can they reconcile Cuba's 50 years of repression and not allowing their people to travel......stevie?

    If their model was such a success, then why did they:
    need the USSR to support them
    need Venezuela to support them
    then complain to trade with the USA.

    Cuba's communist hay day was the USSR's as well. When Castro boy's are worm feed.....the real change will then begin. My favorite communist will always be the last one at the end of my sights......unfortunately too long ago to to recall the thrill.
