[Andy Rose]

Dumbest question of the daymaward goes to andy. Keep it up

Yeah, he's such a sweetheart that those who want to leave have to cross the sharks-infested sea in inflatable boats

Is there an alternate reality where everything you say isn't mind bendingly stupid?

I'm amazed about how Cuba managed to keep on being an independent country.


Well done Fidel 

Guess who knew a month ago that NATO would invade Libya!!

THE NATO PLAN IS TO OCCUPY LIBYA

Oil has become the principal wealth in the hands of the great Yankee
transnationals; through this energy source they had an instrument that
considerably expanded their political power in the world. It was their main
weapon when they decided to easily liquidate the Cuban Revolution as soon as the
first just and sovereign laws were passed in our Homeland: depriving it of oil.

Upon this energy source today’s civilization was developed. Venezuela was the
nation in this hemisphere that paid the highest price. The United States became
the lord and master of the huge oil fields that Mother Nature had bestowed upon
that sister country.

At the end of the last World War, it started to extract greater amounts of oil
from the oil fields of Iran, as well as those in Saudi Arabia, Iraq and the Arab
countries located around them. These became the main suppliers. World
consumption progressively increased to the fabulous figure of approximately 80
million barrels a day, including those being extracted on United States
territory, to which later gas, hydro and nuclear energies were added. Until the
beginning of the twentieth century, coal had been the basic source of energy
that made industrial development possible, before billions of automobiles and
engines consuming the liquid fuel were produced.

The squandering of oil and gas is associated with one of the greatest tragedies,
not in the least resolved, which is suffered by humankind: climate change.

When our Revolution arose, Algeria, Libya and Egypt were not yet oil producers
and a great part of the abundant reserves of Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Iran and the
United Arab Emirates were still to be discovered.

In December of 1951, Libya becomes the first African country to attain its
independence after WW II, during which its territory was the stage for important
battles between the troops of Germany and the United Kingdom, conferring fame
and glory on Generals Erwin Rommel and Bernard L. Montgomery.

Ninety-five percent of its territory is completely made up of desert.
Technology permitted the discovery of vital oilfields of excellent quality light
oil that today reach one million 800 thousand barrels a day along with abundant
deposits of natural gas. Such riches allowed it to reach life expectancy that
is almost at 75 years of age and the highest per capita income in Africa. Its
harsh desert is located over an enormous lake of fossil waters, equivalent to
more than three times the land area of Cuba; this has made it possible to
construct a broad network of pipelines of fresh water that stretch from one end
of the country to the other.

Libya, which had a million inhabitants when it attained independence, today has
somewhat more than 6 million.

The Libyan Revolution took place in the month of September of the year 1969. Its
main leader was Muammar al-Gaddafi, a soldier of Bedouin origin who, in his
early years, was inspired by the ideas of the Egyptian leader Gamal Abdel
Nasser. Without any doubt, many of his decisions are associated with the
changes that were produced when, as in Egypt, a weak and corrupt monarchy was
overthrown in Libya.

The inhabitants of that country have age-old warrior traditions. It is said
that ancient Libyans were a part of Hannibal’s army when he was at the point of
destroying Ancient Rome with the troops that crossed the Alps.

One can agree with Gaddafi or not. The world has been invaded with all kinds of
news, especially using the mass media. One has to wait the necessary length of
time in order to learn precisely what is the truth and what are lies, or a
mixture of events of every kind that, in the midst of chaos, were produced in
Libya. For me, what is absolutely clear is that the government of the United
States is not in the least worried about peace in Libya and it will not hesitate
in giving NATO the order to invade that rich country, perhaps in a matter of
hours or a few short days.

Those who with perfidious intentions invented the lie that Gaddafi was headed
for Venezuela, just as they did yesterday afternoon on Sunday the 20th of
February, today received an fitting response from Foreign Affairs Minister
Nicolás Maduro when he literally stated that he was “wishing that the Libyan
people would find, in the exercise of their sovereignty, a peaceful solution to
their difficulties, that would preserve the integrity of the Libyan people and
nation, without the interference of imperialism...”

As for me, I cannot imagine that the Libyan leader would abandon his country;
escaping the responsibilities he is charged with, whether or not they are
partially or totally false.

An honest person shall always be against any injustice being committed against
any people in the world, and the worst of all, at this moment, would be to
remain silent in the face of the crime that NATO is getting ready to commit
against the Libyan people.

The leadership of that war-mongering organization has to do it. We must condemn
it!

you're in no position to call ANYONE stupid.


how can you be so arrogant to think you know more than ME about politics in the southern hemisphere

Great words!!!. Thanks for posting

Libya is in the Northern hemisphere.

Aside from your obvious lack of understanding of basic geography, you clearly contradict yourself. You first praise Fidel, then claim he's a horrible dictator, and you praise him again.

This shows you are simply being contradictory for the sake of argument. If we say black you say white, I bet if we protested the actions in Libya you would be supporting it right now.

Hell, you don't know shit about economics, which explains why you think "invading" libya is good for oil. As I've stated MANY times, if it weren't for international pressure, US wouldn't give a shit about Libya, they would stay back and the whole thing run its course. Why? Because it's crucial for the US to maintain a good relationship with Libya in order to get their oil. Now going into a country to topple a political regime seems counterproductive to the whole "maintaining good relationship to get their oil" doesn't it? I guess not to you.

Oh yeah, have you seen what Gaddafi did to Libyans? He killed them.

You can always tell how good a leader Gaddafi is just by the way he kills civilians no?

Oh yeah, great standard of living

Love how Marko and Andy simply disregards facts. Makes your arguments that much more credible

[Andy Rose]

Libya is in the Northern hemisphere.

I WASNT talking about Libia. it might look as if I were still wrong, but only the South is in good terms with Cuba and that's how we get the most part of information about it. We obviously, due to political affinity and language matters, have a cleaner inflow of news than northern countries. That's why I made the mistake of regarding Cuba as a southern country

[Marko0190]

Why? Because it's crucial for the US to maintain a good relationship with Libya in order to get their oil. Now going into a country to topple a political regime seems counterproductive to the whole "maintaining good relationship to get their oil" doesn't it? I guess not to you.

Actually, the United States has set a condition to stop the bombing...and condition is that Gaddafi leave the power.

And they will be on good terms with a new leadership of Libya, and then they will be able to get what they want.

He IS  a dictator and is as authoritarian as any othe dictator around the world. if you think he didnt order to kill a single opposition person then youre delusional (or stupid), there're still many political prisoners in cuban jails and citizens are not allowed to leave. But just to clarify you things, I dont admire Fidel for being an altar boy. doesi t make sense to you now?


I admire him cause thanks to his system all people in Cuba can have 4 meals a day, there're no undernourished children, all citizens had highschool education and the Cuban medicine is one of the best of the world. Too bad that it's a tough shit for those who dont like communism, but if it werent for Fidel USA would've stick their flag LOOOOOOOOOOOONG loooong ago.

if you dont understand that doesnt mean I contradict myself

With most you said in this thread I do not agree but this? Oh yessssssss!!!
Nobody cares about a horrifying genocide that happens at the very moment at the Ivory Coast. Apparently there are no blood diamonds or coffee to score.......It's very shady how these barbarians get their weapons but who knows?

LOL...

Did you read that in the Cuban times with the Castro editing?

So Cuba is soooooo good that people risk their lives by the hundreds and thousands every year, get on a piece of wood with a sail, travel through shark infested waters with 25 families per 8X8 "boat" just to reach the good old USA?

That good there huh?

Andy haven't had Cuba history at uni. She studied almost anything at uni but Cuba history was not one of her many classes.
