Guatemala Apologizes to Cuba for Role in Bay of Pigs

Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom apologized to Cuba today for his country’s having allowed the CIA to train exiles in the Central American country for the 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion.

He added that he wished to apologize “as president and head of state, and as commander in chief of the Guatemalan army.”

Does this seem like a big kiss-up to Cuba in order to gain favor with Raul Castro and embarrass the United States? It sure does to me. I wonder how long until the Current Temporary Resident of the White House follows suit. After all, he never has had an original thought.

"Today I want to ask Cuba’s forgiveness for having offered our country, our territory, to prepare an invasion of Cuba. It wasn’t us, but it was our territory." - Guatemalan President Alvaro Colom

Cuba Stockpiling Biological Agents

Roberto Ortega, the former head of Cuba’s military medical service says the Cuban government is stockpiling biological warfare agents such plague, botulism and yellow fever.

My response is….”OF COURSE THEY ARE!!”

Does any independent, intelligent adult think that Cuba has abandoned its radical and Communist ways of the 1960s?

Cuba will remain as it has been since their “revolution.”

As long as Fidel and Raoul Castro and their cronies remain in power, they are going to view the United States as evil and what hope to destroy everything we have.

Why is it that Castro lives in the lap of luxury but his citizens struggle in poverty?

I guess the book “Animal Farm” said it best, “All pigs are equal, but some pigs are more equal than others.”

It is a shame that John Kennedy wimped out on the Bay of Pig Invasion. Cuba would be a better place right now.
