I think not said:
Cortez

Since you brought up Batista, I would like you to show me links that support your claim. I do not doubt Batista was a dictator, but I have never read any article or any book, that would place Batista alongside Castro. So, being admitedly ignorant on the topic, show me where Batista was worse than Castro.

i suppose its a matter of debate- as to which was WORSE

im not permitted yet to post links- didnt work the last time
so youll have to type in the address

try www.historyofcuba.com

theres a start for his repression, links to organized crime,
etc.

but as i said --- im no big fan of fidel but his revolution did accomplish a remarkble improvement in measurable parameters ie --improvements in education --- high literacy rates
improvements in health-- inccreased life expectancy
etc
which i dont believe batatistas regime had the slightest interest in achieving

so one was a repressive irresponsable regime
the other a repressive relatively responsable regime

its not black or white
