I have never understood why the U.S. has always been weak on/not interested in Latin America. As an example, we still have Castro sitting in Cuba after 40 years.

Well, it shows. How different things would look if we had. Other wars and other places have taken our time and our treasure. But with some foresight, I imagine the tragic human flight out of these countries would have been unnecessary. Now we are paying a bigger price.

The forces of darkness are gathering in Latin America. They include not only Cuba and Chavez, but Lula in Brazil, FARC in Columbia, and the outlaw border region between Paraguay, Uruguay and Argentina. Looks like Panama (with Chinese control of the Canal) and a large influx of ME types is joining in. I'm sure I've left some out.
