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
