What makes Fidel Castro a bad guy?
Here's my limited understanding of the man and his legacy:
Cuba before Castro: 1) Cuba was under control of a corrupt Government headed by Batista (and supported by the US). 2) Cuba was a playground for American mobs. Prostitution, and all things seedy that we wouldn't want in our neighborhoods were everywhere in Cuba. Castro's Rise: 1) In the 1950's Castro organizes a small force and fights off Batista's Government and kicks out the mob, the prostitution, the gambling that is rampant in Cuba 2) Finding no funds to re-build Cuba, Castro befriends the USSR because he cannot get support by the US 3) The US imposes an economic blockade on Cuba that is still in place today Cuba After Castro: 1) Cuba has one of the highest literacy rates on the globe 2) The mob, prostitution, and other activities are either gone or under control like here in the US 3) Cuban researches may have a cure or vaccine for Cancer but the US government won't allow it into their borders because they don't want to pay Castro for it. In other words they're on the cutting edge of science. 4) The US has never let up the sanctions on Cuba even though Castro has never posed a threat to the US and has never shown that he is opposed to US trade. Notes about Castro: He earned a law degree. In 1940, as a student activist he joined a political party which had a mandate to bring about peaceful revolutionary change through constitutional means. In short, the guy wanted his country to be prosperous and not the hole that it was treated as by foreigners. He couldn't get it done through peace so he started a revolution. Now things in Cuba are better than they were before Castro came along. Unlike Haiti, we don't see people on boats fleeing from Cuba to go to the US. So why are we still treating this man like a Devil? Wouldn't we do the same thing in his position? |

And I know you're being sarcastic. It's just troubling how many people will say he's bad because he's a communist without knowing any of the history. I ask those that don't like him to explain why. Because your President says so and because it's been 'the policy' for 60 years? Isn't it time to move on. The wealthiest nation on earth santions poor little Cuba. It's almost pathetic. |

So Castro accepted aid from Russa. Russia decided to place missiles in Cuba. It's caused a scare. Would something have ever happened? I don't know but WW3 would have been brutal and probably none of us would be here today if WW3 had happened. Was it all political manoevering? Probably. Anyway, considering that was in the 60's and Cuba couldn't rebuild on it's own, what would you have done? |

The United States has always proped up dictators to suit their needs. They are only "evil" when they don't do what teh US wants. Saddam is an exmaple. Reagan and Rumsfeld had ZERO problem with him aquiring WMDs and killing his own people as long he was on our side against Iran.

I can tell from your posts that the only thing you know about Cuba
is from some web site somewhere. Now lets suppose that the government just took everything one day and gave things to people they thought should have it and it did not matter who's stuff it was to begin with. How would you feel about the government. |

I started a thread saying I had limited knowledge. I'm asking for answers as to why we don't like Castro. From the points above, can any of you explain why he's a bad guy?

What has Castro done that I haven't? Don't know. Don't really know much about the guy nor have I ever claimed to. Like I said, I really don't care either way.

Castro is bad because if you have a beautiful tropical island it should be full of casinos and brothels for horny American men to spend their money on.

From what I've seen on the news, he seems to be loved by his people and people like the father of Elian Gonzalez prefer to live in Cuba rather than the US.
I'm amazed that he is able to be a dictator without slaughtering civilians like Saddam and every other dictator appears to have. |

Only one thing you said is right...the education system there is good. Cuba is known to have the best medical schools in all of Central and Latin America!
As for him, yes he has a law degree, and his father took advantage of his mother and he was born! (father was rich mother was his cook!) Thousands of Cubans leave...they all don't come to the US. There is a huge Cuban population in Puerto Rico, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Venezuela,& Panama. If certain people don't protests it's because they can't. PEOPLE IN CUBA HAVE NO RIGHTS!! Over there you can't surf the internet, you can't study what you want, hell you can't legally leave the island.... ![]()

Well if all those things are restricted it's definitely dictatorial. Why don't we help the Cubans out instead of the Iraqi's. They're closer to us and it seems it would be easier to topple Castro than Iraqi insurgents. |

I like how Mike scoffs off that whole little Cuban Missle Crisis by saying it was really the US's fault because we wouldn't help out a little communist island.
Like we forced their hand to aid in our utter and complete destruction and we should just move on from that and overlook the bad blood of the past. ![]() ![]()
