Castro regime is claiming that it is owed $833.755 million, for Reparations
2016-07-31
Ht Fausta. How long before Obama gives in? Two weeks?
Representatives of the deeply pro-Castro Obama administration will be meeting this thursday and friday with representatives of the Castro regime in Washington D.C. to discuss "mutual compensation issues."

Yes, "mutual."

The U.S. and the Castro Kingdom will discuss two issues: American property stolen by the Castro regime and "damages" inflicted on the Castro Kingdom by the U.S. "blockade."

According to the Castro regime the U.S. claims amount to 121.192 million dollars, whatever that means.

Well, when all is said and done, the actual amount really doesn't matter, for it is the disproportionate gap between the amount owed to Castrogonia and the amount owed to the U.S. that begs the question. You see, the Castro regime is claiming that it is owed 833.755 million dollars, for "damages" inflicted on it by the U.S. "blockade."

Yes, you've got that right: the Castro regime claims that it is owed roughly SEVEN times more than it owes the U.S.

#3  Cuba and the Castros expropriated billions of dollars in properties owned by Americans when they took over. The way I see it, they owe us money.

#1  Every year, the USG sends Cuba a check for the lease of Guantanamo Bay. With the exception of the first year or two, those checks haven't been cashed.
