Washington has for three decades kept Cuba on a list of countries that sponsor terrorism, even though it has long since changed the behavior that earned it that distinction. By all accounts, Cuba remains on the list — alongside Iran, Sudan and Syria — because it disagrees with the United States' approach to fighting international terrorism, not because it supports terrorism. That's hardly a sensible standard.

The State Department says it has no plans to remove Cuba from the list.

The Bay of Pigs was all about seizing the banks, hotels, clubs and casinos that were owned and operated by Old US Money and the Mafia. I have family members who were involved in many facets of both sides.

Always keep in mind that Castro was "our" guy. In reality, it was CIA who booted Battista.
