We don't need to keep no stinking contracts, deals, treaties or agreements.

  • Not long after President John F. Kennedy's inauguration on 20 Jan 1961, he soon grew furious at American newspapers that openly reported about CIA's "secret" training of Cuban guerrillas (Brigade 2506) in Guatemala and Florida -- alongside 60 members of the Alabama Air National Guard -- and the obvious USG plans to overthrow the nascent Fidel Castro regime in Cuba. Now 65 years later, the New York Times openly reports that CIA established a Task Force to oust the Havana regime, just like in 1961.
    JFK inherited the Cuba invasion plan from the Eisenhower administration
  • But hey! At least in 2024 POTUS Joe Biden (D) got 138 Israeli hostages released from Palestinian resistance fighters in Gaza that were seeking a prisoner exchange for any of the 4,450 Palestinian detainees being held in brutal IDF custody without trial or hearing or America would be in a deep dire strait today, led by a reckless and greedy Republican megalomaniac in the White House.

    So "Uncle Joe," go enjoy your magnificent $417,000 per year annuity -- the largest taxpayer-funded pension of any former POTUS in intergalactic history -- while the rest of us in America suffer austerity measures caused by the GOP "Big Beautiful Bill" and the international body count caused by the US and Israeli militaries soar.

    Cuba looks to be election fodder...distraction as the midterms approach...another idiotic war, but one that will impress the Cuban immigrants in Florida. And, of course, another war crime of a war as Cuba is no danger to the US.

    Although not yet finished losing his war of choice with Iran, Trump would likely relish a Cuban operation - in the same vein as Reagan hoping his invasion of Grenada might offer a counter-narrative to his humiliation in Lebanon
