This is all becuase the Americans put up Xmas decorations and a 75 sign? Why doesn't Castro put up pictures of the 75 prisoners instead and show the real nature of his regime?

The use of abuse pictures like this is a petty, petulant manipulation of the suffering of others to further the cause of an undemocratic, totalitarian regime that does not allow freedom of opinion, has its people in poverty and country made an international pariah - sounds like Castro has learnt a lot from Saddam Hussein. The sooner the US invades Cuba and puts him and his cigars on trial, the better for the world.

If you want to see another country bombed to kingdom come that badly (at christmas too), put your money were your mouth is and join up with the US army. It would be much more effective than just ranting away here.

If you hate Cubans that much, get yourself tooled up and uncle Sam might let you kill a few.

I think that is it good for Cuba to retaliate in this way. If the US has anything to say about the Cuban regime or any other for that matter they should also answer for their own actions towards prisioners. It is a shocking and disgusting billboard that turns your stomach, upsets you, and angers you. But that is exactly what those acts have done. They do nothing but represent the truth. War crimes in these days equal Nazi-ism according to the US. So why doesn't it apply to ourselves?

Truth is a scarse commodity among world leaders at present. Bushes fundamentalism has resulted in issuing for licience of thugery against arabs just as Regan did against south America. Interested in democracy _ American foreigh policy is an abuse of democracy. We have all known. May God help us because all morality and integrity is gone among world leaders.
