Now,,,,,,,,,,,,,think back in history.......................Spain..........Hernan Cortez................Pizarro.............from Mexico, Honduras................Panama........Columbia............Peru..............etc..................where does a ship have to go to reach Spain...............airplanes did not exist in the 1500s........nor the 1600s.........nor the 1700s................

Look at the sheer physical size of Cuba...............and also, its proximity to the USA.......................

My point in all these ramblings...............several...................for one........look at where Haiti is...............Haiti is singularly the poorest country in the entire western Hemisphere........the Americas.........................i bet they did that on purpose............they are probably both hiding something and looking for something...............Guantanamo Marine base is on the SE side of Cuba................the side that faces Haiti..........................

Now...............u don't think the Cubans..........as in the Cuban gov., if it felt like it...........could take the Marine base????  They could easily.............the Bay of Pigs in the early 1960s...............was an effort to ruin Pres. JFK.............when that didn't work...........they just killed him in 1963................they are more than likely hiding something on Cuba.....................

Look at a map of the extremely strategic position of Cuba............esp. in ref. to the Gulf
