Again, leading from (his) behind, like any good buggerer. Because the only good terrorist is the one who likes goats.

Does any of this need congressional approval?

Or is it “stroke of the pen - law of land - kinda cool” thing?

One would hope, but then again this is the Obama regime where the executive order works around collaboration, negotiation and compromise.

“Or is it “stroke of the pen - law of land - kinda cool” thing?”

If Cuba was placed on the list by a previous Secretary of State, they can be removed by the current Secretary of State.

Cuba’s political system and human rights record is dismal to say the least; maybe the best we can hope is that it becomes something like Vietnam. But, we know who the terrorist sponsors are now, and they don’t speak Spanish or wear OD BDUs (hint, they speak Arabic or Farsi, and tend to favor robes).

WOW! LOOK WHAT I FOUND! REMEMBER “THE CAMBRIDGE POLICE ACTED STUPIDLY....” (BARACK OBAMA)

November 8 - Sniper attack on Cambridge Police Station. Two shots were fired. Two Weathermen, James Kilpatrick and James Reaves, were indicted and then subsequently released when a witness recanted his testimony.[7]

Yesterday, Valerie’s man child was told to go to a church where victims of the Castro regime are memorialized.

Today, Valerie tells him to bless the unrepentant and murderous regime.

See No Terror, Hear No Terror, Speak No Terror (Obama on Cuba)
Humberto Fontova
Townhall 5/29/2015

Today President Obama further opened the financial floodgates from the U.S. to the world’s most notorious deadbeat nation—who is also a “State Sponsor of Terrorism.”
Quotation marks are now required around the term “State-Sponsor of Terrorism” when referring to Cuba because just this morning, as the 45 day notification period to Congress expired, President Obama officially removed Cuba from the State Department’s list of State Sponsors of Terrorism, where President Reagan had placed it in 1982.

Now this removal from the terror- list will allow the Castro family to further loot international financial institutions like the World Bank and International Monetary Fund. You’re aware, I’m sure, who ultimately foots most of the bill for these international welfare agencies, badly disguised as lending institutions?
Right. The U.S. taxpayer.

And speaking of terror-sponsorship. Just last week Cuba (practically) got caught red-handed supplying Chinese-made arms to the Western hemisphere’s oldest biggest and most murderous terror-group, Colombia’s FARC. The terror-death toll from these Fuerzas Armadas Revolucionarias de Colombia (FARC) exceeds 200,000, and includes more U.S. citizens than have been murdered by ISIS.

So maybe it was a mere coincidence that the very week Obama planned to remove Cuba as a terror-sponsor the mainstream media blacked-out any mention of this blatant terror-sponsorship by Cuba in our own backyard.

Back in February, you see, Colombian authorities found 99 missile heads, 100 tons of gunpowder, 2.6 million detonators, and over 3,000 artillery shells hidden under rice sacks in a ship bound from Red China to Cuba that docked in the port of Cartagena Colombia.

Well with their new Obama-issued economic lifeline gushing nicely, the Castro regime has unleashed a wave of terror on their subjects surpassing most of the terror of the past ten years, which is really saying something.

The rest of the history
