Dammit, Castro OWNS Bush
http://www.globalresearch.ca/articles/CAS405A.html

Listening to you talk of human rights in Cuba has a hollow, absurd ring. This, Mr. Bush, is one of the few countries in this hemisphere where not once in 45 years has there been a single case of torture, a single death squad, a single extrajudicial execution or a single ruler who has become a millionaire through having held power.

You lack the moral authority to speak of Cuba, a dignified country which has withstood 45 years of a brutal blockade, economic war and terrorist attacks which have cost thousands of lives and ten of billions of dollars in economic losses.

You are attacking Cuba for petty, political reasons, trying to obtain electoral support from a shrinking group of renegades and mercenaries who have no ethical principles whatsoever. You lack the moral right to speak of terrorism because you are surrounded by a bunch of murderers who have caused the death of thousands of Cubans through terrorist methods.

You do not hide your contempt for human life, because you have not hesitated to order the extrajudicial death of a secret, unknown number of people in various parts of the world.


Can he nail it any better? woohoo!

2. Does anybody know anyone Castro has killed
that didn't deserve it? All the ultra-right people always go off on what a horrible tyrant he is, but when ever I ask for evidence I'm given names of people he killed who deserved to die. Like the pilots who illegally flew over cuba several times dropping pamplets out over the cities, as if we would hesitate to kill someone who violated our airspace and refused to land. Does he have torture camps, or hidden graves of dissidents? Are the people he locks up political prisoners or US sanctioned terrorists bent on collapsing the country? Anyone have any good sources out there of what's really going on in Cuba?

3. he touches on this here:
The only thing you know about Cuba are the lies that spill forth from the ravenous mouths of the corrupt and insatiable mob of former Batista supporters and their descendents who are experts in electoral fraud and capable of electing President of the United States someone who did not obtain enough votes to claim victory.
