They can't wait for the "hated" Castro to die, so Cuba can be liberated. Liberated in whose eyes? Did anyone bother to ask Cubans if they feel that they need liberating? It seems to me that if Cubans were not happy with Castro (a leader the people love) they would have done something about it by now. [/b]

You mean... like all those Cubans who try to flee to Florida every year? If it was so great there, why would they take such drastic measures to leave, knowing they only might get to stay?

At least when the "tyrant" was in power the streets were safe to walk at night?[/quote]
Safe for everyone or only those who "agreed" with Saddam's rules?
If it weren't for those rebels who fight against everything and everything, including the Iraqi people themselves, it would be safe to walk at night.... for everyone.
