Man, if Castro would just up and die already...

Why Britian is under the impression that we're up to something with Cuba leads me to believe that they've got too much free time on their hands.

Uh, we care? We could sit on our coasts and melt Cuba into the ocean,,,we need the Brits permission? What, we are going to "storm" the island with boots on the ground?

Is this even on our radar screen?

They must be getting bored in the House of Commons (I love how rowdy they get, it's quite entertaining!)

"I visited Cuba two years ago and was very impressed with the social advances that have been made despite all the pressure from the US.”

yes - prison buildings as social advances.

The Europeans have been propping up Castro for years. Without their support, he'd have been overthrown by his own people years ago.

The Brits must have a lot of free time on their hands if they have to worry about the U.S. invading Cuba.

Is anyone suggesting any attacks on Cuber? This is just a thinly veiled attempt to show everyone that they are still good liberals. I guess that the WOT has people asking if Labour still stands with the Socialists.

"Illustrates the gulf?" WTF?!

Did I miss something? Is the 82nd preparing to drop in downtown Havana?

"The vast majority of the 402 MPs who replied in writing also believed that US foreign policy had caused hardship for 11 million Cubans and damaged the country’s economy"

Perfect example of leftists believing their own nonsense. If I'm not mistaken, I believe a guy named Fidel Castro is the cause of hardship for 11 million Cubans.

I guess the Europeans believe Castro when he says we are going to attack. Either that, or the Europeans know something we don't, i.e. that Castro is going to attack us.

We were, until the Brits let the cat out of the bag. Now our surprise is ruined. Thanks a lot, you so and so limey do-gooders!

Me too. I musta missed the announcement. Unless Fidel got his hands on Saddams WMD's... I think he'll just keel over from old age and syphilis one of these days.

If we are to go to war against Cuba...lets do it with the Florida National Guard. We need Dan Rather to be in position in Havana...to do live interviews. And we need lots of booze for the party afterwards...make it Cuban Rum. We'd have to make it the 51st state...and install a military governor for 4 years to ensure stability.
