atinymonkey Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 I'm just wondering, as you do, about the 'axis of evil'tm that we now seem committed to looking into. Libya, Syria, Iran, Iraq and North Korea all seem to have legitimate reasoning behind seeing them as a threat. However, Colin Powell has admitted that Washington is not accusing Cuba of having biological weapons but of possessing the capability to conduct biological research. Is that not a bit tenuous? Is Cuba a genuine threat to anyone, in reality? I just assumed it had turned into a nice holiday destination and the backdrop for bond films. Isn't Somalia or Uganda a more legitimate focus of the worlds attention? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sayonara Posted March 25, 2003 Share Posted March 25, 2003 "You had some anthrax we gave you once" is a bit tenuous, and look what happened to Iraq. Cuba should be nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuba should be nervous. Well. Now, as I see it, Cuba itself is only a "semi" axis. Now it they get the the Ruskies again, we could have a Semi Major Axis. However, as Neither Cuba or Russia have the means to blow their noses w/o US aid...I am not concerned. Bill Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atinymonkey Posted March 26, 2003 Author Share Posted March 26, 2003 I like that idea, 'the axis of semi evil'. Just a normal country with a bad reputation. France could join:) . It doesn't really explain why Cuba has be included in the 6 countrys in the Axis of Evil. I have a suspition that its because of the grudge the US holds towards Cuba, or they want a reason to lift the ban on Cuban cigars. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
