I can see this is going nowhere (and I'm not in for that ride today).

There's a difference between opposed to the government and opposed to certain policies of the government. If people in canada were considered opposed to the government just because they opposed cetain policy you might think most of them were opposed to the government as well. Surely you jest? Can you not see the difference? The political opposition in Canada wastes money in Ottawa. The political opposition in Cuba is removed (one way or another).

They fought a revolution. Isn't that enough? The enemies are still very powerfull. As Castro has stated, "I stay in power because the US tries so hard to remove me"

The war is meant to be continuous...

Call a vote. Ballots not bullets. The sad fact is commies are allergic to ballots but have no problem with bullets...

Good point. There is not much opposition to Cuba, just the hard line capitalists.

You are deliberately obtuse. There are Cuban political refugees around the world and well documented cases of human rights abuse. There is considerable opposition to that regime.
