What ER has never explained.
Although I've asked, there has never been a reasonable answer.
The Batista regime was as corrupt and cruel as any of the time. It catered to an American gangster element and Castro's successful revolution was against this.
The emegre Cubans supported Batista, supported his corrupt regime, supported his secret police, supported the American gangsters. And encouraged an embargo which did no damage to Castro but caused unmeasurable suffering for the average Cuban.
The emegres cared nothing for Cubans, their suffering, and actively supported a corrupt Batista. Why?
The conclusions one can draw from that are simply damning. And leaves one with no repeat NO sympathy for the emegre Cubans, or at least as much sympathy they have for Cubans.
