It was thus said that the Great Chad Fernandez once stated:

  After Castro diposed Batista he then turned to the US for help and
recognition. But since the US at the time suported Batista's regime
(dictator that he was) and Castro's little coop pissed off monied interests
here in the states, the official US response was to ignore him.

  So he turned to the only other global power at the time ...

        keep control after World War II, for all the good *that* did us.
        Sometimes I think our government doesn't learn from its own
        mistakes ... )
