I just got done watching a really interesting show on the "ID"

It was called "Kennedy-Castro - The
Secret History." I have seen every show
( I thought ) on the subject of the Cuban
Missile Crisis or on the the Kennedy's for that matter. But apparently
not or it was a
new show.
I never had heard of the ABC journalist/reporter Lisa Howard before
and
it was a fascinating story on how she almost brought the two countries
together.
It looked like she and Pres.Kennedy were
literally within weeks/months to make that
happen....and then of course he was
assasinated.
I wonder if the U.S. will ever make amends
with Cuba....or if this has even been thought of by the new
administration. That
country literally looks like it's frozen in the
time of the 60's, pretty sad IMO.
Anyone have any opinion on the matter in
response to ever lifting sanctions against
Cuba?
Sanctions? In reality we are one of the big traders with Cuba. And, virtually
the rest of the world trades with Cuba. The 'sanctions' are merely a hoax used
by the Casto 'tard boys.
Oh really? I really need to get caught up on things
some time. For some reason, I had thought that we
still basically didn't have much to do with them. {?}
Well, if we're giving them money and trading with
them....there's no reason for their country to look
like that. Someone is pocketing all the money and
it isn't the people of Cuba...that's for sure.
It's strictly limited to agricultural exports from the USA to Cuba. In
2007, this amounted to about $500 million making the USA the 5th largest
* *trading partner with Cuba. That being noted, the Helms-Burton Act
seeks to punish other countries that do business with Cuba. The bottom
line: do business with Cuba but don't expect to do business with the
USA. You can easily guess which choice most countries would select.
If you think that the embargo hasn't been effective from inflicting
poverty on the population then think again. I was there in 2007 and
could see what effect the embargo has had.
Ignore DxDufus - he hasn't a ****ing clue in his alcohol-addled brain
about anything.
D'Oh ! -so- The USA has an Embargo Against
Trading with Cuba and the USA is Cuba's 5th
Largest Trading Partner - rotfl ~ RHF
*.
Half-billion in the area of agriculture, Sparky. The embargo extends to
critical things such as medicine and infrastructure and investment. Some
of the other things required to keep countries moving ahead.
D'Oh ! - All the Cuba People have to do in a
Free, Open and Honest Election is say "NO"
to Fidel and 'Castroism'. FREE CUBA !
Oops Jimmy Carter says Cuba has Free Elections.
Oops Jimmy Carter says Cuba has Open Elections.
Oops Jimmy Carter says Cuba has Honest Elections.
Oops Jimmy Carter Loves Fidel Castro.
Oops Jimmy Carter says Criticizing Prez Obama is Racist.
Oops Jimmy Carter says Israel is Racist.
That's the same Jimmy Carter who never desegregated
and integrated certain Counties in Georga as Governor
of the State of George.
That's the same Jimmy Carter who never desegregated
and integrated certain Counties in the State of Georgia
when he was the US President.
Oops the Two Faces of Jimmy Carter !
