If that were the aim then it might be a nobel cause, but still they should be left to decide their own future

The revolution in Cuba was to a great degree inspired by corruption from American influence in the 1940s (casinos, gambling). That's how Fidel Castro came to power.

In the dear-dead 1960s the Cuban issue became a political paranoia and war nearly occurred due to this.

So you are proposing that more political meddling and interference will cause Cuba to become some kind of sick American paradise?

Doesn't anyone read history anymore for crying out loud?

No and maybe, respectively. While it might have made sense to respond to the initial revolution in Cuba with something more effective than the Bay of Pigs, it's far too late now. Clearly the Cuban people have by and large chosen to accept thier lot, at the very least, until the demise of Fidel. For those few who haven't, and have the courage and luck to make it here, political refugee status is probably often apropriate.

Cubans who come here DO remain most of the time. And no, the U.S. shouldn't intervene in any of the Cuban affairs. I am really sick and tired of those who think democracy is the perfect universal type of government. Every country works in a different way because of its culture and history. Representative Democracy has proven to fail in many so-called "third-world nations." Sometimes some true leadership is needed. This being put aside, I am sure Cuba is ready for a democracy due to its high education levels. 0% of Cubans are illiterate, and most of them have college degrees.

Cuba went from Spanish to American to Soviet colony and is now free of foreign influence for the first time in its history. Integration into the international free market system is inevitable.

In 1959, Castro nationalized private property and there are alot of people who will never forgive them for that. In 1961 the CIA organized the Bay of Pigs invasion to overthrow Castro and made attempts to assasinate him, after which he sought Soviet protection. In 1962 the US and USSR agreed that Soviet missiles would be removed from Cuba only if the US promised not to interfere with the Cuban government (and remove some obsolete Redstone rockets from Turkey).

Castro's Communist political system is in opposition to that of the US. Cubans who come to the US, having a well-founded fear prosecution if returned to Cuba should be granted asylum in the US.

It's about time to drop the embargo, and let the people of Cuba decide their own future. Yes, we should not give automatic safe haven to any and all Cubans that reach our shores. We should have political asylum for those who fear for their life's, the same as in Haiti, but not allow those that are economize refugees

Cuban Missle disaster: Fidel Castro comprises means. 1961 Cuban exiles invade Cuba to attempt and take it over from Castro, they fail miserably. Cuba then thinks usa is gonna invade, it then allies with u.s.. u.s. starts off to sends missles into cuba, u . s . is at a delema they like to provide up the unfold of communism yet they dont prefer to have a extensive conflict. in 1962 Kennedy has the same opinion to do away with all missiles set in Turkey on the border of the Soviet Union in substitute for Khrushchev removing all missiles in Cuba.

cubans don't need much of a "better" life. they have over a 99% litteracy rate, one of the highest life expectancies in the world, and are overall extremely healthy.

we ARE interferong by imposing the sanctions on them. i think if we let cuba trade with everyone else they would be perfectly fine. they have a well educated population who would know what to do with the money...they just need to have the access to products.

other than that, we should leave them alone i think. they are doing ok.

No country should interfere with the internal workings of another country--except for human rights abuses, genocide, and that kind of thing.

Cubans who arrive in the USA as refugees should be entitled to the the same rights (under American law and the UN agreements about refugees) as refugee CLAIMANTS from any other country.

Just because people come from Cuba does not make them legitimate refugees. They need to meet the criteria in order to be allowed to stay.

definitely yes. why shouldn't we. we've tried to free south korea, vietnam, and iraq. cuba would even be easier since its an island. all we have to do is get permission from the russians. and most of them don't want that government. they can't even vote on it because castro changes their votes. i went to cuba in summer of '99 and an island that used to be the jewel of the caribean is now is ruins. the people need permission to buy things, everything is falling apart, and they don't even make a decent wage from the work because it goes to the government. state your anti-communist beliefs and the take you to jail. thats messed up. we have the power to intervene, wait for this war to blow over and the economy to get high again.

Sure, not sure if we should interfere, but we should let them stay. I thought if cubans made it here that they could stay!
