Amid the deployment of US military might near the island, the Havana government has begun distributing weapons to ordinary citizens, officially urging them to prepare for an imminent foreign invasion. The Mirror of Venezuela and Social Discontent The report confirmed a fact of significant military impact: Cuban troops were secretly operating in Venezuelan territory when an armed incursion aimed at deposing Nicolás Maduro was carried out. This confrontation, originally conceived as a lightning attack, limited their options for retreat and resulted in the deaths of just over 30 Cuban soldiers on the ground.
Among the population, the general sentiment ranges from alarm to exhaustion; according to local accounts, some Cubans admit that, faced with the suffocating crisis, "they just want this to end once and for all, one way or another." LINK

Reminder 1:
Cuba denies purchasing 300 drones for attacks on U.S. facilities. Havana calls these accusations a pretext for sanctions and possible "military aggression".

Reminder 2:

Good way to get overthrown. Most folks there would welcome the U.S. taking over.

If the Cuban citizens do the right thing there won't be a need for any country to invade them.

I don’t believe this reportage. No communist government gives weapons TO the citizens. The first thing the communists do (after taking over mass communication and establishing their secret police) is take weapons FROM the citizens. Handing out AKs to some block wardens in Havana does not mean they’re arming the Cuban people.

Funny, but Cuba is a little different than Iran.

I highly doubt the Cubans are as loyal to communism as the Viet Cong.

Are you blind? Everything in Iran is worse than when we began. They control the Strait of Hormuz, the regime is still in place and they still possess enriched uranium, there's been no revolution, the economy is substantially worse, and fuel and food prices are higher. Is that a win to you?

Cue my Castro joke.......

He was giving one of his 3 hour speeches to a crowd of 50K. When he stopped to take a breath, you could hear a man shouting popcorn, peanuts. He continued, stopped for another breath and once again popcorn, peanuts. To which Castro shouted, "one more time and Ill kick your arse all the way to Miami"......To which 50K responded popcorn, peanuts...

My FIL went there about 10 years ago. He's a missionary.

He said it was way cool with all the 1950s era automobiles.
