The UN will condemn the Embargo for the twenty-something straight year by lopsided votes against our Cuba policy . Last year the world condemned our Policy against the Cuban people ny a vote of 188- 2 ...the two were Israel and the US ....

No decent respect for the opinions of mankind...

Any day. Maybe tomorrow. Then they'll agree to restore the Batista government. Um, okay, Batista died in 1973. So we may have to find somebody else . . .
