History Lessons

The illness? and surgery for Fidel Castro has started the rumor mills running at full speed. And thousands of Cubans are making plans to go “home” when he dies. Will this be the end of Cuba’s pain?

Fulgencio Batista was U.S. approved and supported. History is a wonderful teacher…but only if you read it.
