U.S. Says Cuba Still a Global Sponsor of Terror

According to the U.S. State Department, the world's most prolific terrorist groups are supported by the government of Iran, Sudan, Syria and Cuba. But while Iran, Sudan and Syria have well-known and documented current ties to various terrorists groups, Cuba's place on the list has increasingly come under fire.
These four countries are considered "state sponsors of terrorism" that, according to the United States, have "repeatedly provided support for acts of international terrorism." They are subject to the harshest sanctions the U.S. can impose, including travel bans, financial transactions and trade.

They go around the world sending doctors and teachers into other poor countries that can't pay huge fees and then fail to coerce them into taking on debt to multinational corporate terrorists that can never be repaid.

Fidel Castro is the most famous national leader to ever tell the jackals to take their deal and shove it up their asses. That alone makes Cuba a major threat to American business.
