First off, why are you putting 'enemy state' in scare quotes? In case you forgot about the Cuban Missle Crisis in the 60's, read up about it here. There has been a long history of slights back and forth between the US and Cuba. It's no secret to Americans. To imply our general knowledge of Cuba is slanted, or historically inaccurate, is absolutely absurd. You say our sources are not reliable, justifying it by saying the US Government itself is paying journalists in Miami to write stories in Cuba?
Wow :lol:

Miami and Cuba. I believe that story (about a year ago if I'm correct) has also been published in US newspapers, so I don't get your surprise.
Slights back and forward??? What do you mean with this. It is like group of 15 10 year olds beating up a 5 year old in a playground.
You know it and I know it, if there was only a small thing that Cuba could do to threaten the US it would already have been invaded 5 times over.
The missile crisis is anyway more a problem between the USSR and the US or not?
The only thing is here that the US rather has right wing extremist governments that torture socialists in the Caribbean and south America. Castro and Chavez' only mistake is that they don't want to cooperate with the US under their rules. They don't present the slightest form of danger.
To bring back the interesting point about Miami. I think US minded Cubans in Miami are accountable for many more murders of US citizens than Castro's Cubans.
Come on I know the problems especially in the cold war, Cuba was an enemy. But please let some politician step up who is not a childish whiner and just shake hands with Castro.....that is if he is not dead of course.
