| Bush about Cuba... |
Bush attacks Cuba and other Latin America rivals
Speaking at a 34-nation summit of leaders across the Americas, Bush singled out Cuban President Fidel Castro for his toughest condemnation.
"Through our democratic example, we must continue to stand with the brave people of Cuba, who for nearly half a century have endured the tyrannies and repression (of others than us)," Bush said at the summit's inaugural ceremony. I suppose he only refers to Castro? Not to US-friendly dictator Batista (who was controlling Cuban politics since the 1930's)
Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez has resisted opposition demands for a referendum on his rule, and Haiti's President Jean-Bertrand Aristide's government has been rocked by violent protests and allegations of government repression. Aristide is supported by the poor people (so he must be a dangerous communist for the USA), dictators Papa Doc and Baby Doc Duvalier were supported by the USA...
If the USA cares about democracy...
Why did (and does) it support so many dictators (the cruelest first)?
Why does it support armed (terrorist) groups fighting against democratically elected governments?
Why did it try to change the results of many elections in many countries (including their own now ;))?
Why doesn't it accept resolutions of the UN when they are accepted by all but 2 countries? Why use vetoes?
