Answer me this: If Castro had been so evil, why after half century of trying to kill him couldn't the US find one person in Cuba who would betray him?
Yes he threw the racketeers out of Cuba, and I'm sure they didn't go voluntarily. Do you believe all the bullcrap about spreading democracy the uS puts out? You don't think they maybe have a reason to vilify a socialist guy with the balls to say hell no we not paying no debt and to tell other third world countries they don't have to pay the west for being independent. I just can't wrap my mind around the idea that you think such a man is evil.
Holy crap. I am as liberal as they come economically speaking but NO. CASTRO giving free health care and free higher education DID NOT make him a hero or a nice guy. There is no such thing as a kind dictator.
That would be like Ness busting Capone only to take a criminals money for himself. That is what the CASTRO family did and what his brother still does. That is not change, not change one bit.
Whenever someone praises dictators it always amazes me because it sounds like someone who has never lived under them or doesn't know that many who escaped them.
I have seen some here praise Napoleon too. I simply fail to see why it has to be an either/or proposition. NO we don't need to value assholes who oppress the press, YES we should value free health care and education. BUT NO we don't have to value dictators like CASTRO to have that.
I'd suggest you go live there and try to say even some of the things you say here. Even if you love the idea of free health care and free higher education, it would be a mistake to assume communist CUBA would not come after you, a website like this IS BANNED completely there.
CASTRO is a dictator, just because someone feeds you doesn't make them moral, it just means they feed you.
