You see the US is evil. They're trying their best to destroy Cuban economy but when protesters are dealt with for protesting the bad economy, the US use that as an excuse to further destroy Cuban economy.

Isn't this something a devil would do?

Fidel Castro's take over of Cuba was the best to happen to Cuba. Now, Cuba has the best of everything Doctors, engineers, researchers, scientists anything you can think of

Has the US put any sanction on Israel for occupying Palestine? There are many countries the US is happily doing business with that have more human rights abuses than Cuba, have they sanctioned them? Hypocrites!

The US put those sanctions in place after US businesses were nationalized by Castro in retaliation and then also for their flirt with Russia and Germany I think where one of em was planning to have their nukes stationed der

I don't know much about this case, but why nationalized the businesses of US citizens?

For successful US government over the years to continue the blocked, Cuba must have wronged many average Americans.

Cuba should take the first step towards settlement by paying compensation for the businesses she nationalized.

When Fidel Castor seized power in Cuba, hundreds of thousands of Cubans, especially wealthy ones, fled to the United States. A good number settled in Miami and are now prosperous.

Apart fro. being prosperous, they are also very powerful. They are the ones stoking the hardline position against Cuba. Cuba also seized their assets. These Cubans and a vast majority of their descendants are probably the richest Hispanics in America. They also feel very entitled and snobbish and look down on theirs.

They align with the republicans, hence Donald Trumps hardline approach towards Cuba. They strongly believe a tough approach would break the Communist regimw, or at least make them miserable. Instead, the embargo has been used for decades by the Cuban government to explain why they are poor, as though over 200 other countries don't exist it they can trade with.

Cuba does have human rights abuses and a lot of propaganda goes on. It's economy is still largely communist and explains why it is still poor despite having probably the best educated citizens in the Americas, the US inclusive. The US embargo plays only a small part in its poverty. It's attachment to socialist ideals or hubris is the primary reason.

All these happened 60 years ago. It's the people who are suffering and smiling. Cuba is not a threat to the united States as we speak. The US even stopped other countries who have no business with their squabble to stop dealing with Cuba

Sometimes, it's appalling to encounter africans and asians among the global rightwing throng justifying the US decades long crippling economic embargo on Cuba.

I believe the events that led to the 1959 Cuban revolution should be studied through an objective, non biased, historical context.

Fidel Castro and other revolutionaries didnt just dust off their backsides, toppled the immensely corrupt pro US govt of Batista and begin seizing private property.

This is not true. Cuba being a communist country has no connection to what they are experiencing but uncle sam would want you to believe communism is the main reason for their woes because of America's own disdain for communism.

The fear that communism could spread throughout western hemispehere was what made America to constrict Cuba during the cold war not only Cuba every communist country was sanctioned and pressured by America. America see western hemisphere as its own sphere of influence and a communist country springing up there got them alarmed

We know the number of failed assasination attempts the CIA orchestrated against Fidel Castro not only that terrorists were sent by CIA to detonate explosives around the country every attempt made by Castro to develop the economy was hamstrung by U.S. In the year 2016 President Barrack Obama realised the wrong America did to Cuba and he tried to extend an olive branch by visiting the country but Fidel Castro declined to meet Obama because America really hurt that man it was God that didn't hand over his life to the America's CIA if you fail to assasinate a man after 600 attempts it can only be God. His brother Raul Castro was the one who met Obama and Obama said this during that visit to Latin America. He met Raul in 2015 and 2016

"Days of meddling in Latin America are past"- Barrack Obama

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-latin-america-32261550.amp

https://www.reuters.com/article/us-usa-cuba-idUSKCN0WM04H

Obama promised to relax decades old sanctions against the country which he did but when Donald Trump got there he reversed those decisions made by Obama and put those sanctions in place.

The excuse they usually give is Cuba has human rights issues. Is it Saudi Arabia their ally that does not have human right issues. How many sanctions and embargo have been placed on Saudi Arabia.

The USA invaded Afghanistan after the bombing in 9/11 and because the Taliban government allowed Osama and its cronies self Haven in Kabul.

The USA won't just attack Russia for no just reason,
Russia is bordered by NATO countries, Finland, Poland, if Putin wants war he should attack them and then he gets his war
Unlike Putin one man can't declared war in the USA,
The Congress of the USA has to pass with overwhelming majority for the president of the USA to declare war on any country

I can say it's you that know absolutely nothing about Cuba. Cuba is poor because America is fighting tooth and nail to keep them poor, but in terms of scientific advancement, they're doing great.

If you don't know about Cuban doctors, then you know absolutely nothing about Cuba

all I see here is just Petty excuses. Afghan war later turn to an aimless one after killing the master minder of the 9/11. Later they were fighting Taliban for Islamization of a Muslim region, Their troop withdrawal left Afghanistan hanging leaving behind weapons they were using. During the search for Osama bin laden, the same Iranian general who was killed in a drone strike helped the USA army to locate Osama Bin laden, but because He was challenging the USA government authority on national TV, they conspired and killed him for wanting USA to leave there government alone. Libya nko? So they also launch an attack on Us abi.... Somalia too nko? Make better research, this countries were not like this before.. Why do you think the Nigerian government is declining the American support to fight insurgency? They will take advantage of the war and escalate it and turn naija to war soon...
