All I can say is , on behalf of the African people we thank you Cubans all over the world, we appreciate all what you have done for Africa , Medically, Militarily and all the good that you have done. We thank you and appreciate you all.
It is a historic fact that Cubans fought together with the africans against colonalism and against apartheid in south africa. In the 1960's and 70's, America wasn't even ready to fully recognize the birth rights of the african americans, let alone help south africa. I can't help but acknowledge Castro's stand with the africans during africans dark days. May God bless Cuba
In fact , America and Europe were in full support of the Portuguese in Angola and the Apartheid regime in South Africa. The west was benefiting hugely from the extraction of Africa’s mineral wealth. It makes sense that African leader’s only option would be to turn to Cuba and the Soviet Union for military and logistical aid.
They did a fantastic job, poverty, corruption and lawless dictatorships that change hands with occasional genocide and military coups that slaughter innocent lives for power and control until a new warlord arrives on scene.
Luis Gonzalez Having in mind the economic sanctions, all the propaganda etc etc etc, and the fact that they were pretty young when they did the revolution, they did a lot of amazing things and if usa and the rest of the world wouldn't have been so hostile to them and if there were no blockade i think Fidel would have installed the representative democracy based on Marxism like they said they wanted, something like what allende was doing in Chile, but it was a complicated situation.
Arrogance is but one side of the coin. The other side is deceit. The US doesn't stand for freedom and their president isn't the leader. The American government is run by the rich elite. It's no democracy.
***** There is one country which isn't run by the rich elite. Maybe you've heard of it. I'd really like to move there but I can't find it on any map. It's called Utopia. The US is a better place to live than a lot of places I'm sure but there are many terrible countries in the World. It's just that calling the US president "Leader of the Free World" is a bit of a joke.
propaganda... all those people smuggling in are sold hopeless dreams. they don't have information about how the country really is other than what is being shown to them via media which is a very powerful tool to influence peoples' minds.. and who owns the media who has the power and who benefits from all that propaganda? the rich elite
Cuba only helped to weaken South Africa economicly so that Illuminati could take it over. The Illuminati loves Communism for its stregnth to disrupt stable countries, so that money and the corruption can rule. Racial propaganda is always used to stirr each one against each other but the reality is that whites fought alongside black in the Angolan war to halt the advance of communism in Africa, which had already killed 100's of 1000 nds of people in other countries. What people dont understand about white south africans is that we are born here, we live here and we want a safe country just as blacks do. Cuba probable helped to weaken SA economicly because the Angolan war cost SA R5mil's a day, but today SA in many way is not better of. Rampent rape, murder, therf, hi-jackings was not seen during apartheid. Themedia only shows you what it wants you to see because it belongs to the money powers. It is time people start opening up their eyes.
And I can assume that you are an intelligent white racist? Fear is a terrible thing, it consumes and dominates our rational thinking. makes an individual say and do things out of the ordinary. The one problem with that type of behavior is that they who lack control, will be controlled.

There is so much history that we’ve never taken the time to learn or understand the role other governments have played in developing our foreign policy. The role of Cuba as a pivotal catalyst in African nation building.
There is so much history concerning the dominance and rape of numerous countries and it's peoples. Unfortunately, ignorance prevails and the average citizen is unaware... It seems any fool can get elected to important positions.
Castro will live on forever and will be one of the greatest revoutionist generals of the past 20th century .thank you Fidel Castro for your love for freedom .
Cuba helped liberate Angola from the clutches of Kissinger and SADF without asking for Angolan oil. Britain helped Nigeria win secessionist Biafran war immediately intensified SHELL suck up of Nigeria oil, they have done so for fifty years now Even France that wanted to help arm Biafran only on the basis of ELF/TOTAL sucking up Biafran oil America is busy sucking up Iraqi oil after invasion. Well done Cuba, you are a friend indeed!
@Joe Moer You obviously were watching Looney Toons cartoon commercial instead of this informative video. Mandela explained everything you just lied about.
@Joe Moer what did Cuba "rape" form Angola? Also do you not know how war works? People die in them if you're unaware, also Cuba helped fight against Apartheid SA who invaded Angola.
@Joe Moer sigh, well thanks for wasting my time, if you wanted to be called a moron you could've just asked, nothing about or during "Operation Savannah" consisted of Cubans stealing resources, they were there to help the MPLA fight the SA army, Cuban military intervention was in direct calls of assistance to fight South Africa after they invaded Angola. Back to the "rape" you falsely talk about, do you mean they stopped SA from putting in a pro west puppet so that the US could steal Angola's resources? Your claim that you were there is laughable, also why only just now create a RUclips account, seems odd.
+Brian Trend respect from UK the SADF and Rhodesians the masters of the bush war with only a few men took on the commies a far larger force and destroyed them. they gave them a beating they will never forget and castro was humiliated. only a rat like fidel castro would make up a bullshit victory. but that communist retards

I am very impressed of Professor Piero Gleijeses's profound knowledge about Cuba and its involvement in Angolan independent struggle and South African liberation from Apartheid. Cuba not only helped in warfare but educated professionally so many countries from Africa in its own schools and Universities in Cuba, sent Cuban doctors, medical professionals, engineers etc. to provide free service called "Internationalism" . In 2005 Cuba opened "International medical school" in Havana and the first group to receive free education were poor America Citizens among other Latina- Americans, Africans, Caribbeans etc. Mandela admitted that Cuba helped materially to the apartheid struggle while other countries including America supported "in rhetoric". I don't know why the hand shake should be a problem for anti-Castro Cuban-American Ileana Rose-Lehtinen? it shows their ignorance and morally and politically incorrect attitude who made money by accusing Castro for half a Century. Today both countries (Cuba and America) has reopened a new chapter of relationship which might frustrates Ileana Rose-Lehtinen and her allies.
***** okay... thanks for the info. but is it worst to make threats, than to actually Nuke / use Nuclear weapons, twice? not making any judgments, just saying..
***** the so called civilized folks started this, why did they leave Europe TO GO TO AFRICA... THEN JUST CLAIM FOLKS LAND? THEY LIVE OF THE WEALTH OF AFRICA WHILE THE PEOPLE HAVE TO LIVE IN POLICE CONTROL SLUMS And that's b.s . Why'd you need guns when you already have a paid army to do your protecting. those people don't make guns. the so called civilized do and their guns are bigger. what would you do if someone came to America or England and started oppressing an killing your people by the millions for centuries, just to claim your land..? would you give up just because they're greater in power & got more allies. ? would u be cool with living as a 2nd-3rd CITIZEN IN YOUR OWN CITY..? HOW COME WHAT THE SO CALLED CIVILIZED WOULDN'T STAND FOR. IS ACCEPTABLE FROM THE PEOPLE YOU'RE WILLING TO TAKE IT FROM. HOW COME WHEN BLACK AFRICAN RULED SPAIN FOR 800 YRS THEY MADE SPAIN BETTER OFF NOT WORST. ? AND WHEN THE SPANISH DEMANDED THEY LANDS BACK IT WAS GIVEN BACK ..? WITHOUT GENOCIDE OR BRUTAL OPPRESSION OF THE SPANISH PEOPLES.? I Guest if we all saw each other as savages. we'd understand each other better. ? Funny the invaders who has won a war they started for another peoples land. called them savages as they keep them busy with daily oppression. while they live of the fat of the peoples lands in wealth & comfort behind heavily guarded walls.. while sending out their armies / polices daily to make sure that the Natives don't think of fighting back.... i see the issues is learning to think like the so called civilized folks. Kill brutalized steal what ever you want. and when you've killed so much that people dare not even of doing you the same. THEN YOU GET TO CALL THEM SAVAGES, AND YOU GET TO CALL YOURSELVES CIVILIZED ... that's how it works..? doesn't. you can have morals after the killing & stealing is done, just as long as you never think of giving back what you stole or being so moral that you stop oppress the people you came to kill steal & brutally oppress. be to civilized is to do what you want to the enemies you seek out. then call them savages if they don't forgive & accept your rule over them... how dare these people keep fighting back for whats theirs ? No wonder they asians wouldn't let you have any power amongst them... they know you civilized intentions. these savages didn't seek you out, these savages hasn't annihilated whole race & species of animals that has existed for thousands of years, in the last 100- 400 yrs. these savages has live amount thousands of different tribes of people, for thousands of yrs witout annihilated each other. these savages hasn't mastered war & it's making, because they never had no reason to..? so these savages fail at the making of war. because they haven't mastered it . but the so-called CIVILIZED FOLKS HAS MASTERED THE MAKING OF WARS. AND IS PROUD OF THEIR ABILITY TO DO SO. THE SAVAGES ARE SAVAGES BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T ACCEPTED THE REALITIES OF CONSTANT WAR MAKING . maybe they'll learn. maybe they'll learn to claim to be making peace while giving the other side chicken pox blankets... maybe they'd learn to poison the enemy's water & lands. maybe they learn to accept the concepts that the enemy must die in the most gruesome of ways, even the enemy's babies. maybe but not likely they had 40thousand yrs of minimal wars, those new concepts is only 2000 yrs old in their existence. these savages has had to live with more fear of a tiger than each other for 40.000 yrs, they ideas of raping & murdering another people on every level is new to the so called savages minds. the savage thinks that after a war comes peace. they don't get that to be civilized, you have to be in constant war with the other. and even if the other gives up , that you must keep them from ever having the free/peace time to think of EVER fighting back, THAT YOU MUST KEEP LOOKING FOR NEW WAYS TO FRUSTRATE THE OTHER SIDE PEACE OF MIND. . TILL IT DRIVES THEM INSANE WITH HELPLESSNESS . THE SO CALLED SAVAGE MUST LEARN, TO BE AS BRUTAL AS THE CIVILIZED FOLKS. THEY MUST ALWAYS BE INVENTING NEW WAYS TO KILL, THEY MUST BE CONSTANTLY CREATING DISEASES & WEAPONS TO KILL WITH. AH, WHEN WILL THE SAVAGES CATCH UP & BECOME CIVILIZED..? WHEN? MOST LIKELY NEVER. THAT ISN'T THE SO-CALLED SAVAGE MINDSET. JUST THE INSANELY GREEDY OR PARASITICAL ....
I'm from angola today I live in England, Cuba helped Angola in many ways, helped in war , health, education etc, and they did it with respect, in angola today there's musicians inspired by cuban musicians, many cuban doctors still there today, many cuban soldiers live in the country, they married there. After the end of ww2, the world was against Nazis, but that same world supported apartheid, as long the victim is not whithe, , everythingis alright, God bless Cuba and all cubans.
Cuban doctors are in Angola not because of their kindness. They are slaves of the Cuban government who charges Angola big money for them and in turn gives these doctors peanuts. Same thing that North Korea does. Doctors are a business and a propaganda tool for Cuba.
@Daquan 7 NOT everything Mommar Ghaddafi did was bad, but there were things he did that were bound to come back to him & that he jad to answer for. 🤷♂️
Also interesting to note, that free and formally enslaved African Cubans lead the charge in their revolt against the spanish for their independance, many of the generals in the victorious rebel armies were African in Origin, this is why Cuba did not forget its roots, they have attended to their brothers desperate state because they fought together hand in hand to defeat their colonial masters, its just lovely to see a country with integrity today.. unlike some countries in Hispaniola that forget who helped them rid them of their colonial ,the spanish. " When human beings can look at skin color as nothing more important than eye color, only then than man can say he has has integrity, until then mankind is a perversion of Humanity" - Bob Marley. Canada supports Cuba and always will. There is still much to do but In this hemisphere Cuba is indeed at the leading edge of true humanitarian support unlike Usa that milks this lie to invade soverign countries and gain resource extraction advantages as well as propping up dictatorships. If Canada can oust Harper and somehow regain its humanitarian image in the world, which isnt to hard to do since we arent so deep in a ideological and militaristic hole as the Americans, then i can see a world where Canada and Cuba lead the way in supporting underdevolopped countries and diplomatically solving militaristic issues, this is what i hope to happen and not the downward spiral into the devils cabin that we are engaged in.

The tolerant people of South Africa voted to end apartheid, without prejudice or due pressure. South Africa was prospering as a Nation. No one but the voters are responsible for the South African vote to end apartheid.
No, apartheid got killed the day South Africa was defeated at Cuito CUANAVALE. MPLA demanded to free Mandela, grant Namibia its independence, and stop supporting Unita. The South African apartheid demanded the withdrawal of Cuban troops and USSR stop supporting the MPLA. Deal done, apartheid dead
Watch "The secret history of how Cuba helped end apartheid in South Africa". Here are some quotes from the historian and author Piero Gleijeses about what happened in Angola: "The Cubans intervened in response to the South African invasion, and anglo america connived with the South Africans and urged the South Africans to invade. So here there is a rather important issue of chronology." "Cuba is the only country in the world that sent its soldiers to confront the army of apartheid".
ViVa Revolution Fidel ! As a matter of historic record , the Cuban govt has supported African liberation movements more than any goverment against western imperialism and white supremacy. It is a moral obligation for Africans every where to support the Cuban people because we owe this to them! They've sent their doctors to malaria infested places to cure our sick people while bousgeisie U.S. doctors treat only those who can afford them.
when all is said n done,...Castro,.Ghadaffi, Arafat etc, will be named among the righteous ones, who fought against the white giants who control the machine that grinds n sucks the blood of the suffering ones.
I have a new respect for cubans not the one who fled but the ones who stayed and fought for the liberation of all free ppl I salute you viva Fidel Viva cuba
Loving this one thank's for sharing very important information giving blessed love to all knowledge is power hopefully everyone pays attention keep up the good work 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪
Been to Cuba... everyone seems happy, and together. They're strong in their faiths, they are not money orientated, they welcome anyone into their home with open arms... I have been to america too; it was crap
Cuba's done amazingly in spite of the living hell it's been through. It still feeds its people, it still gives healthcare to its people and it educates them for free. All the things the US has never done, despite it being the largest economy the world has ever seen.
Living in S.A. at the time I seem to remember that the Americans were going to arrive in Angola to join-up with the S.African forces but changed their mind(s) ? Maybe some body else has firmer memories of that time ?
Yes, but it wasn't just walking into Angola like a playing ground, agreements had to be reached, the FNLA they were supporting at that time, their leader Holden Roberto had refused, the USA were to bomb Luanda.
Castro is a hero of mine. He gave his people health care, education and housing! Plus he helped liberation movements around the world. All while being under sanctions by the US. And I was pissed off at that halfwit Republican who called Castro a cruel dictator. Just shut up! You have NO idea what you are talking about!
Perhaps this professor should check the casualties and losses on both sides at Cuito Canivale to educate himself a bit better ,the SADF defeated Cuba at Cuito ,the SADF generals wanted to finish the Cubans off once and for all at Cuito but was stopped by our politicians
And just over a year later, Pres. Obama is lifting the 50+ years of a cruel and sadistic blockade. Yes! And when that Florida congresswoman speaks of "bloody hands"--who has more blood on his hands Castro or Obama? Thanks for this insightful broadcast AG--I learned so much.
over 25,000 cubans died in their fight against south africa. i doubt that south africa lost more than a tenth of that. appartheid's ending had more to do with sanctions
Castro and Che thumbed their noses at the U.S. to show that they were yet one more participant in the Imperialization of the world. And it is no small contrast that Regan fought against both leaders in their struggle to free themselves.
Cuba in fact played an important role to stabilize Angola after the Portuguese were forced to abandon their colony. "...Cubans worked in construction, education, agriculture or transport, and some were directly involved in developing the political structures of the MPLA, such as the children's and women's organisations. They performed a critical role in keeping Angola going after hundreds of thousands of Portuguese bureaucrats and technicians fled to Lisbon as independence loomed. From November 1975 to December 1977, 3,500 Cuban civilians went to Angola. Over the next twelve years that number would rise to 50,000. ..." - Lara Pawson "A Cuba connection", (pp.236-37) as quoted by Paul Trewhela. But Cuban military interventions deliberately tipped the scales in the ensuing civil war in the favor of the MPLA. Was that morally acceptable to democrats in the rest of the world and if so why? And I wonder why there is no reference in this video presentation to Cuban involvement in the "Nitista massacre in and around Luanda in Angola on 27 May 1977, when as many as 25,000 urban people - mainly, but not exclusively, poor black township dwellers - are reported to have been murdered en masse by the ruling MPLA party, assisted by Cuban military and security forces." More balanced reporting and less deceit, lies, obfuscations and disinformation are required before the world will be able to fully understand what actually transpired in Angola.
What this professor are also not saying is that Fidel Castro executed his general after their defeat at Cuito by the SADF but still they lied and said how they won
one of the interesting points in this issue is why the was in Angola was never covered and there is still so little material on such an important event.
I just wish that everyone got along especially the leaders of the world. I think it needs to start with leaders...😕 and if they disagree they should battle it out on a boxing fight one on one like true leaders instead sending others 😊 I bet you they would have to get along for the sake of their own lives 😬
I agree. Over hundreds and thousands of years rulers have always found enjoyment in conflicts. They find this enjoyment because they are not the one fighting or losing their lives. It's like the army is their toy, they don't realize the risk and true loss in war. We hardly ever have "real" rulers in history.
South Africa has liberty and human rights thanks to Fidel Castro and Nelson who fight for peoples that needed the liberty because live with tirany and apartheid, Fidel Castro was a leader against the racism and the imperialism, Nelson Mandela and Fidel Castro fighted for the Liberty of Africa and the world.
@@mikecharliesierra341 LOL First, I do not live in Cuba, Second, I do not know what part of what I said makes you think that way. The only few Cubans that would think the contrary are the few communists still left in the island. And I don't think they care about Angola either, they probably cannot even point it on a map.
Prof Gleijeses' books on Latin American Revolutions (he has written about Cuba and about the US CIA coup in Guatemala in 1954 which helped shape the thinking of the Castros and Che about American imperialism.... his books are impeccably researched, and unquestionably true. Sorry gusanitos, but the truth hurts.
I think the swell I face Ileana meant the cruel and saddistic detention center of her country in Guantanomo Bay, Cuba. Nothing will change the fact that The Great Fidel Castro and The Great Nelson Mandela remains two (2) of the GREATEST leaders the modern world have seen.,,she will never rise to that level.
What the heck did Cuba get back from doing what they did for Africa. That’s not helping another nation, that just being human. I wish we saw this more often.
It is hard to look at a single action without considering what actions and reactions led to it. People always have a reason to do what they do and normally it is to serve their own purposes so they can get something out of it. Whether it was for civil rights or not I don't know what Castro had in his mind or heart that led to destroying a destructive regime. The thing to take away from all of this is how you choose to live comes back to you in some way.
Viva Fidel There is something about genuine leaders like Fidel and Gandhi...dedication to a cause and concern for those struggling. May his legacy never die
Steffan Blanco One of Castro's more popular phrases is: History will absolve me. If there was genuine reason to suspect he had "killed a lot of people" except during the Cuban Revolution, it would have been the ideal opportunity for the US to attack Cuba. Similar to the rationale for the Iraq war. Fidel defied the US for over 50 years and in the end prevailed. More importantly, this video highlights the role played by Fidel in ending apartheid, while the other members of G8: Germany, USA, France, England...merely paid lip service. I won't be surprised if his good deeds are someday celebrated more globally with a Nobel Prize or something similar. Read up some more on the fact that the educational and medical facilities in Cuba rank with the best in the world; how their economy has not crumbled despite decades of embargo. Those things speak of an individual who has been dedicated to helping his people achieve despite the odds.
It’s honestly laughable for any US politician to talk about human rights of other countries.

Just shows how Cuba were the true visionaries not blinded by exploitative power
In fact , America and Europe were in full support of the Portuguese in Angola and the Apartheid regime in South Africa. The west was benefiting hugely from the extraction of Africa’s mineral wealth. It makes sense that African leader’s only option would be to turn to Cuba and the Soviet Union for military and logistical aid.
They did a fantastic job, poverty, corruption and lawless dictatorships that change hands with occasional genocide and military coups that slaughter innocent lives for power and control until a new warlord arrives on scene.
@@cayminlast - So how would you explain callous practices of repression and genocide perpetrated by USA, Belgium, Britain, France and Portugal?

There was one realistic achievement about Fidel castro, kids in Cuba did not go hungry, because i was one of those kids.
God bless Cuba
I can see you didn't--and it's too bad you didn't starve. The world weeps each time you draw a breath.
Luis Gonzalez Having in mind the economic sanctions, all the propaganda etc etc etc, and the fact that they were pretty young when they did the revolution, they did a lot of amazing things and if usa and the rest of the world wouldn't have been so hostile to them and if there were no blockade i think Fidel would have installed the representative democracy based on Marxism like they said they wanted, something like what allende was doing in Chile, but it was a complicated situation.
Infinite Verbalizer stfu you tard. Dipshit like you are the reason there are wars and poverty
Luis Gonzalez yeah but you've got octopus coming out your ears right?
"the leader of the free world" ?!!!!
arrogance to the maximum level.
right?
Arrogance is but one side of the coin. The other side is deceit. The US doesn't stand for freedom and their president isn't the leader. The American government is run by the rich elite. It's no democracy.
***** There is one country which isn't run by the rich elite. Maybe you've heard of it. I'd really like to move there but I can't find it on any map. It's called Utopia.
The US is a better place to live than a lot of places I'm sure but there are many terrible countries in the World.
It's just that calling the US president "Leader of the Free World" is a bit of a joke.
***** very true
propaganda... all those people smuggling in are sold hopeless dreams. they don't have information about how the country really is other than what is being shown to them via media which is a very powerful tool to influence peoples' minds.. and who owns the media who has the power and who benefits from all that propaganda? the rich elite
Looks like she should be oppressing McDonald's. Only oppressors are stressed by a handshake. Thank God for the help of Cuba to South Africa.
Cuba only helped to weaken South Africa economicly so that Illuminati could take it over. The Illuminati loves Communism for its stregnth to disrupt stable countries, so that money and the corruption can rule. Racial propaganda is always used to stirr each one against each other but the reality is that whites fought alongside black in the Angolan war to halt the advance of communism in Africa, which had already killed 100's of 1000 nds of people in other countries. What people dont understand about white south africans is that we are born here, we live here and we want a safe country just as blacks do. Cuba probable helped to weaken SA economicly because the Angolan war cost SA R5mil's a day, but today SA in many way is not better of. Rampent rape, murder, therf, hi-jackings was not seen during apartheid. Themedia only shows you what it wants you to see because it belongs to the money powers. It is time people start opening up their eyes.
And I can assume that you are an intelligent white racist? Fear is a terrible thing, it consumes and dominates our rational thinking. makes an individual say and do things out of the ordinary. The one problem with that type of behavior is that they who lack control, will be controlled.
And besides, I'm not a racist, why some of my best friends are white. LOL

Cuba helped liberate Angola from the clutches of Kissinger and SADF without asking for Angolan oil.

Even France that wanted to help arm Biafran only on the basis of ELF/TOTAL sucking up Biafran oil
America is busy sucking up Iraqi oil after invasion.
Well done Cuba, you are a friend indeed!
@Joe Moer You obviously were watching Looney Toons cartoon commercial instead of this informative video.

@Joe Moer what did Cuba "rape" form Angola?
Also do you not know how war works? People die in them if you're unaware, also Cuba helped fight against Apartheid SA who invaded Angola.
@Joe Moer funny, found nothing about your claims, empty words are just that.
@Joe Moer sigh, well thanks for wasting my time, if you wanted to be called a moron you could've just asked, nothing about or during "Operation Savannah" consisted of Cubans stealing resources, they were there to help the MPLA fight the SA army, Cuban military intervention was in direct calls of assistance to fight South Africa after they invaded Angola. Back to the "rape" you falsely talk about, do you mean they stopped SA from putting in a pro west puppet so that the US could steal Angola's resources? Your claim that you were there is laughable, also why only just now create a RUclips account, seems odd.

I am very impressed of Professor Piero Gleijeses's profound knowledge about Cuba and its involvement in Angolan independent struggle and South African liberation from Apartheid. Cuba not only helped in warfare but educated professionally so many countries from Africa in its own schools and Universities in Cuba, sent Cuban doctors, medical professionals, engineers etc. to provide free service called "Internationalism" . In 2005 Cuba opened "International medical school" in Havana and the first group to receive free education were poor America Citizens among other Latina- Americans, Africans, Caribbeans etc. Mandela admitted that Cuba helped materially to the apartheid struggle while other countries including America supported "in rhetoric". I don't know why the hand shake should be a problem for anti-Castro Cuban-American Ileana Rose-Lehtinen? it shows their ignorance and morally and politically incorrect attitude who made money by accusing Castro for half a Century. Today both countries (Cuba and America) has reopened a new chapter of relationship which might frustrates Ileana Rose-Lehtinen and her allies.
+Fik Desta Thank you . i Now know why they truly hate Cuba & Fidel ... thank u & your people...
Much love , my eyes has been open..!
***** okay... thanks for the info.
but is it worst to make threats, than to actually Nuke / use Nuclear weapons,
twice? not making any judgments, just saying..
***** the so called civilized folks started this, why did they leave Europe TO GO TO AFRICA... THEN JUST CLAIM FOLKS LAND? THEY LIVE OF THE WEALTH OF AFRICA WHILE THE PEOPLE HAVE TO LIVE IN POLICE CONTROL SLUMS And that's b.s .
Why'd you need guns when you already have a paid army to do your protecting.
those people don't make guns. the so called civilized do and their guns are bigger.
what would you do if someone came to America or England and started oppressing an killing your people by the millions for centuries, just to claim your land..?
would you give up just because they're greater in power & got more allies. ?
would u be cool with living as a 2nd-3rd CITIZEN IN YOUR OWN CITY..?
HOW COME WHAT THE SO CALLED CIVILIZED WOULDN'T STAND FOR.
IS ACCEPTABLE FROM THE PEOPLE YOU'RE WILLING TO TAKE IT FROM.
HOW COME WHEN BLACK AFRICAN RULED SPAIN FOR 800 YRS THEY MADE SPAIN BETTER OFF NOT WORST. ? AND WHEN THE SPANISH DEMANDED THEY LANDS BACK IT WAS GIVEN BACK ..?
WITHOUT GENOCIDE OR BRUTAL OPPRESSION OF THE SPANISH PEOPLES.?
I Guest if we all saw each other as savages.
we'd understand each other better. ? Funny the invaders who has won a war they started for another peoples land.
called them savages as they keep them busy with daily oppression.
while they live of the fat of the peoples lands in wealth & comfort behind heavily guarded walls..
while sending out their armies / polices daily to make sure that the Natives don't think of fighting back....
i see the issues is learning to think like the so called civilized folks.
Kill brutalized steal what ever you want.
and when you've killed so much that people dare not even of doing you the same.
THEN YOU GET TO CALL THEM SAVAGES,
AND YOU GET TO CALL YOURSELVES CIVILIZED ... that's how it works..? doesn't.
you can have morals after the killing & stealing is done, just as long as you never think of giving back what you stole or being so moral that you stop oppress the people you came to kill steal & brutally oppress.
be to civilized is to do what you want to the enemies you seek out.
then call them savages if they don't forgive & accept your rule over them...
how dare these people keep fighting back for whats theirs ?
No wonder they asians wouldn't let you have any power amongst them... they know you civilized intentions.
these savages didn't seek you out, these savages hasn't annihilated whole race & species of animals that has existed for thousands of years, in the last 100- 400 yrs.
these savages has live amount thousands of different tribes of people, for thousands of yrs witout annihilated each other.
these savages hasn't mastered war & it's making, because they never had no reason to..? so these savages fail at the making of war. because they haven't mastered it .
but the so-called CIVILIZED FOLKS HAS MASTERED THE MAKING OF WARS. AND IS PROUD OF THEIR ABILITY TO DO SO.
THE SAVAGES ARE SAVAGES BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T ACCEPTED THE REALITIES OF CONSTANT WAR MAKING . maybe they'll learn.
maybe they'll learn to claim to be making peace while giving the other side chicken pox blankets... maybe they'd learn to poison the enemy's water & lands.
maybe they learn to accept the concepts that the enemy must die in the most gruesome of ways, even the enemy's babies.
maybe but not likely they had 40thousand yrs of minimal wars, those new concepts is only 2000 yrs old in their existence.
these savages has had to live with more fear of a tiger than each other for 40.000 yrs,
they ideas of raping & murdering another people on every level is new to the so called savages minds. the savage thinks that after a war comes peace.
they don't get that to be civilized, you have to be in constant war with the other.
and even if the other gives up , that you must keep them from ever having the free/peace time to think of EVER fighting back, THAT YOU MUST KEEP LOOKING FOR NEW WAYS TO FRUSTRATE THE OTHER SIDE PEACE OF MIND. .
TILL IT DRIVES THEM INSANE WITH HELPLESSNESS .
THE SO CALLED SAVAGE MUST LEARN, TO BE AS BRUTAL AS THE CIVILIZED FOLKS. THEY MUST ALWAYS BE INVENTING NEW WAYS TO KILL, THEY MUST BE CONSTANTLY CREATING DISEASES & WEAPONS TO KILL WITH.
AH, WHEN WILL THE SAVAGES CATCH UP & BECOME CIVILIZED..? WHEN?
MOST LIKELY NEVER. THAT ISN'T THE SO-CALLED SAVAGE MINDSET.

I'm from angola today I live in England, Cuba helped Angola in many ways, helped in war , health, education etc, and they did it with respect, in angola today there's musicians inspired by cuban musicians, many cuban doctors still there today, many cuban soldiers live in the country, they married there. After the end of ww2, the world was against Nazis, but that same world supported apartheid, as long the victim is not whithe, , everythingis alright, God bless Cuba and all cubans.
Cuban doctors are in Angola not because of their kindness. They are slaves of the Cuban government who charges Angola big money for them and in turn gives these doctors peanuts. Same thing that North Korea does. Doctors are a business and a propaganda tool for Cuba.

Also interesting to note, that free and formally enslaved African Cubans lead the charge in their revolt against the spanish for their independance, many of the generals in the victorious rebel armies were African in Origin, this is why Cuba did not forget its roots, they have attended to their brothers desperate state because they fought together hand in hand to defeat their colonial masters, its just lovely to see a country with integrity today.. unlike some countries in Hispaniola that forget who helped them rid them of their colonial ,the spanish. " When human beings can look at skin color as nothing more important than eye color, only then than man can say he has has integrity, until then mankind is a perversion of Humanity" - Bob Marley. Canada supports Cuba and always will.
There is still much to do but In this hemisphere Cuba is indeed at the leading edge of true humanitarian support unlike Usa that milks this lie to invade soverign countries and gain resource extraction advantages as well as propping up dictatorships. If Canada can oust Harper and somehow regain its humanitarian image in the world, which isnt to hard to do since we arent so deep in a ideological and militaristic hole as the Americans, then i can see a world where Canada and Cuba lead the way in supporting underdevolopped countries and diplomatically solving militaristic issues, this is what i hope to happen and not the downward spiral into the devils cabin that we are engaged in.

The tolerant people of South Africa voted to end apartheid, without prejudice or due pressure. South Africa was prospering as a Nation. No one but the voters are responsible for the South African vote to end apartheid.
No, apartheid got killed the day South Africa was defeated at Cuito CUANAVALE. MPLA demanded to free Mandela, grant Namibia its independence, and stop supporting Unita. The South African apartheid demanded the withdrawal of Cuban troops and USSR stop supporting the MPLA. Deal done, apartheid dead
Bullshit
There is a reason Castro is loved the world over.
Watch "The secret history of how Cuba helped end apartheid in South Africa". Here are some quotes from the historian and author Piero Gleijeses about what happened in Angola:
"The Cubans intervened in response to the South African invasion, and anglo america connived with the South Africans and urged the South Africans to invade. So here there is a rather important issue of chronology."
"Cuba is the only country in the world that sent its soldiers to confront the army of apartheid".

Been to Cuba... everyone seems happy, and together. They're strong in their faiths, they are not money orientated, they welcome anyone into their home with open arms... I have been to america too; it was crap
Cuba's done amazingly in spite of the living hell it's been through. It still feeds its people, it still gives healthcare to its people and it educates them for free. All the things the US has never done, despite it being the largest economy the world has ever seen.
Living in S.A. at the time I seem to remember that the Americans were going to arrive in Angola to join-up with the S.African forces but changed their mind(s) ? Maybe some body else has firmer memories of that time ?
Yes, but it wasn't just walking into Angola like a playing ground, agreements had to be reached, the FNLA they were supporting at that time, their leader Holden Roberto had refused, the USA were to bomb Luanda.
Castro is a hero of mine. He gave his people health care, education and housing! Plus he helped liberation movements around the world. All while being under sanctions by the US. And I was pissed off at that halfwit Republican who called Castro a cruel dictator. Just shut up! You have NO idea what you are talking about!
Perhaps this professor should check the casualties and losses on both sides at Cuito Canivale to educate himself a bit better ,the SADF defeated Cuba at Cuito ,the SADF generals wanted to finish the Cubans off once and for all at Cuito but was stopped by our politicians
And just over a year later, Pres. Obama is lifting the 50+ years of a cruel and sadistic blockade. Yes! And when that Florida congresswoman speaks of "bloody hands"--who has more blood on his hands Castro or Obama? Thanks for this insightful broadcast AG--I learned so much.
+Lilith Rogers what did you learn???????? how to be a goody goody little lefty liberal and swallow up all this bullshit propaganda wake up stupid.
over 25,000 cubans died in their fight against south africa. i doubt that south africa lost more than a tenth of that. appartheid's ending had more to do with sanctions
As a American of African descent I only have one thing to say about Fidel Castro. Viva Fidel!!!!!
This guy knows what he is talking about
Castro and Che thumbed their noses at the U.S. to show that they were yet one more participant in the Imperialization of the world. And it is no small contrast that Regan fought against both leaders in their struggle to free themselves.
Cuba in fact played an important role to stabilize Angola after the Portuguese were forced to abandon their colony.
"...Cubans worked in construction, education, agriculture or transport, and some were directly involved in developing the political structures of the MPLA, such as the children's and women's organisations. They performed a critical role in keeping Angola going after hundreds of thousands of Portuguese bureaucrats and technicians fled to Lisbon as independence loomed. From November 1975 to December 1977, 3,500 Cuban civilians went to Angola. Over the next twelve years that number would rise to 50,000. ..." - Lara Pawson "A Cuba connection", (pp.236-37) as quoted by Paul Trewhela.
But Cuban military interventions deliberately tipped the scales in the ensuing civil war in the favor of the MPLA.
Was that morally acceptable to democrats in the rest of the world and if so why?
And I wonder why there is no reference in this video presentation to Cuban involvement in the "Nitista massacre in and around Luanda in Angola on 27 May 1977, when as many as 25,000 urban people - mainly, but not exclusively, poor black township dwellers - are reported to have been murdered en masse by the ruling MPLA party, assisted by Cuban military and security forces."
More balanced reporting and less deceit, lies, obfuscations and disinformation are required before the world will be able to fully understand what actually transpired in Angola.
''urged by Washington'', if you heard that line you know, history keep repeating itself.
What this professor are also not saying is that Fidel Castro executed his general after their defeat at Cuito by the SADF but still they lied and said how they won
a lesson in history
one of the interesting points in this issue is why the was in Angola was never covered and there is still so little material on such an important event.
God-bless Castro for defeating fascism
Fascism is necessary against communism
Te extrano, mi querido Fidel! Y te quiero! Que encanzez en Paz! Yo, siendo Cubana, estoy muy orgullosa de ti!

I agree. Over hundreds and thousands of years rulers have always found enjoyment in conflicts. They find this enjoyment because they are not the one fighting or losing their lives. It's like the army is their toy, they don't realize the risk and true loss in war. We hardly ever have "real" rulers in history.
South Africa has liberty and human rights thanks to Fidel Castro and Nelson who fight for peoples that needed the liberty because live with tirany and apartheid, Fidel Castro was a leader against the racism and the imperialism, Nelson Mandela and Fidel Castro fighted for the Liberty of Africa and the world.
Big thank you as well to ANGOLA, FORMER USSR, NAMÍBIA. Angola had to foot the bill for all that...

@@mikecharliesierra341 LOL First, I do not live in Cuba, Second, I do not know what part of what I said makes you think that way. The only few Cubans that would think the contrary are the few communists still left in the island. And I don't think they care about Angola either, they probably cannot even point it on a map.
Prof Gleijeses' books on Latin American Revolutions (he has written about Cuba and about the US CIA coup in Guatemala in 1954 which helped shape the thinking of the Castros and Che about American imperialism.... his books are impeccably researched, and unquestionably true.

Cubans under Castro does not get enough recognition
It is hard to look at a single action without considering what actions and reactions led to it. People always have a reason to do what they do and normally it is to serve their own purposes so they can get something out of it. Whether it was for civil rights or not I don't know what Castro had in his mind or heart that led to destroying a destructive regime. The thing to take away from all of this is how you choose to live comes back to you in some way.

May his legacy never die
Steffan Blanco yep America was good,can tell me about Native Americans and Iraq?
Steffan Blanco One of Castro's more popular phrases is: History will absolve me. If there was genuine reason to suspect he had "killed a lot of people" except during the Cuban Revolution, it would have been the ideal opportunity for the US to attack Cuba. Similar to the rationale for the Iraq war. Fidel defied the US for over 50 years and in the end prevailed. More importantly, this video highlights the role played by Fidel in ending apartheid, while the other members of G8: Germany, USA, France, England...merely paid lip service. I won't be surprised if his good deeds are someday celebrated more globally with a Nobel Prize or something similar. Read up some more on the fact that the educational and medical facilities in Cuba rank with the best in the world; how their economy has not crumbled despite decades of embargo. Those things speak of an individual who has been dedicated to helping his people achieve despite the odds.
VERLOS EMOCIONA A FIDEL Y A MANDELA.
