Pretty sure the people of Cuba would disagree on that.
The place isn't Utopia, but it can't be a good choice to just scrap everything the revolution did. They wouldn't be better off turning into post-1989 Poland or Hungary(which is pretty much what forcing a country to go hardline capitalist in economics has to cause).
Fidel isn't "my boy"
and it's silly of you to keep trying to make everything into "us" versus some "enemy"-the world doesn't actually work like that).
BTW, in case you haven't noticed, antisemitism is about ninety times worse in "non-communist" Lithuania than it was under the old days(and I say that as an anti-Stalinist who never supported the way the USSR treated the Baltic states-if there was any Soviet leader I liked, it was Gorbachev-I assume you'll agree with me that everything is worse in the world because the U.S. insisted on making Gorby play the role of leader of the vanquished enemy and did all it could to pave the way for Putin coming to power). Most of the Lithuanian "anti-communists" were World War II Iron Guard types-and they've done nothing to protect the remaining Lithuanian Jewish community from persecution(there's an annual anti-semitic festival in Lithuania that is pretty much a real-life version of the "Running of the Jew" sequence in Borat, for example).
I'm against all dictatorships. I'm also against U.S. military interventions in other countries, especially since those interventions have had littlt but reactionary effects since the end of World War II.
