I understand the trade embargo, as stupid as it is...
But if they were being shipped to the US, they were already paid for... which defeats the purpose of confiscating them, the money is already in the pockets of the Cubans who sold them ...
If they really want to make it effective they need to stop the money from getting to Cuba, not the Cigars from getting to the US.
I just think it's retarded. Hell, Japan bombed one of our naval bases and we still do plenty of trade with them. It wasn't even the Cubans pointing nukes at us, it was allowing Russia to put their Nukes there for THEM to point them at us. And it's not like we don't have Nukes pointed at anyone else.
Hypocrisy.
