After nearly seventy years of Communist rule, Cuba is throwing off the shackles!
I find the muted US Government reaction a little puzzling. Quite obviously, Cuban unhappiness with Communism does not match up with their socialist leanings.
There are even threats of fines and jail for anyone in Miami taking a boat trip to Cuba to deliver aid.
Reagan or Bush would have sent aid. Clinton might have if the polls numbers trended in the right direction. Not sure about Bush Jr or Obama, but to be honest, the US military was stretched out at that time.
I don't think US military intervention is a wise idea. A United Nations peacekeeping effort would work though, Naturally, I don't hear anything like that from whatever clown we have as ambassador to the UN.
I am hoping for a civilian "Dunkirk" going both ways.
Cuba deserves to be free. I am glad they are stepping forward to grab it.
The rest of the world should take notice.
Viva Cuba Libre!
