    From a brazillian here, Castro came down here on several ocasions, and we had a saying on him: 3 things that Castro never deny: "a woman, a cigar and a camera" And boy, that man loved a camera, specially if he could speak for hours and with a big mic, so it was easy for almost anyone here to get a interview, after the cold war, the catch was his staff that would tell if you was a imperialist media or a neutral one, that is why the americans could not get on him but any petty reporter here could.

    Castro wasnt a man to deny an interview. Nor a hug. His charisma and wit, fed by years of philosophy and history studies, meant he was a particularly likable character for both uneducated people and scholars. You can tell that from your average cuban, they are very educated people and they are almost always willing to have a politics conversation and they generally have a very open mind regarding capitalism, accepting that it has benefits as well as drawbacks, unlike your average US citizen. Of course he's proud of that fact, and willing to share his views about a wide array of topics, as well.

    Kennedy very carefully said that "no AMERICAN troops" would invade Cuba - which was, in the literal sense, true. And the technicality was delivered so smoothly that nobody picked up on it - at the time. If the Americans had opened their eyes in 1959 (taking the long view) they would have done business with Castro in Washington and could have had him in their pocket instead of forcing him to turn to the Russians for financial support. But after the big U.S. corporations and banks who (along with the Mafia) owned Congress were thrown out of Havana there wasn't anything positive that Kennedy (who inherited the whole mess) could do.

Luckily for us Filipinos, Marcos was ousted by a democratic 1986 EDSA People Power Revolution instead of a communist revolution that could be initiated by the Filipino Reds.

    Well I will try to help answer that. I know its been 2 years. But technically the SU did do something in response to the Jupiter Missiles in Turkey. They placed missiles in Cuba. Our Missiles in Turkey were deployed in 1959, but didn't become operational until 1961. We also had Jupiter Missile sites in Italy as well. The thing about the Jupiter missiles and why the SU didn't make a big deal is one, It was NATO that agreed to have the missiles placed. second, the SU as well as the US knew the Jupiters werent that hard to shoot down. Even though missile tech was in the infancy, it would've been no problem shooting them down while being launched.

That seems to be the part that everyone conveniently forgets. I also believe there was quite a difference in distance, as was pointed out above with the ability to shoot them down. Cuba was 90 miles from the USA. Quite a different thing than the distance from Italy or Turkey to major Soviet cities.

    The Bay of Pigs fiasco reminds me a little of Operation Market-Garden in Holland in September 1944. The original plan had merit in both but too many compromises, red flags or changes to the original idea had seriously hurt the odds of success yet both went ahead with predictable disastrous results. There are differences, of course in each event, like the change of administration in the Bay of Pigs planning stage whereas in 1944 the Allied Command was the same throughout Market-Garden. Bottom line was that both should never have been allowed to proceed after serious red flags or change in circumstances became evident. The Bay of Pigs should’ve been stopped when Kennedy cancelled the Air element of the plan for fear it would reveal the extent of American involvement and Market-Garden was allowed to proceed despite Allied Intelligence reports (and photos) of German Panzer units refitting in the area and the fact that paratroopers would have to be dropped up to 8 miles from their objective. The scale of Market-Garden was much larger but both operations led to many unnecessary dead, wounded & captured men.

    yeah this episode got me worked up. I am kind of glad Nixon wasn't in the office instead but I still feel like it was Kennedy's fault it got this bad in the first place. Why couldn't we try to help Cuba by actually helping them like in the Marshall act instead of attacking them? Castro might of been paranoid already but we certainly made him more so. Then we encourage people to go die and never help them. Also Kennedy didn't hardly do anything when the Berlin wall is getting built as well. I am going to get really mad during the Vietnam episode.

    Fidel Castro was a brilliant revolutionary leader, who liberated his country from American colonialism, brought health care education and massive social progress to millions of Cubans, and made Cuba a small Caribbean island into a major player in international politics. And this despite decades of American sanctions, embargo, terrorist attacks and subversion,and invasion, and threats to use nuclear bombs against a tiny island nation. I don't agree with everything he did, but these are the hard cold facts. Love it or hate it.
