As any Cuba related thing comes up, we must remember that in Cuba, a secretive, oppressive government has rounded up countless people, imprisoned them without trial, subjected them to horrific torture for decades at a time and that same govt laughs in the face of the international community’s pleas to stop or even just let impartial inspectors in to ensure even a bare modicom of humanity for those poor souls left to rot.
I’m talking about Guantanimo bay of course.
Yeah I mean being very isolated and very defensive towards colonisers is about the only strategy that seems to work.
