http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/news-columns-blogs/fabiola-santiago/article124836199.htmlIn a particularly absurd display of military might and tropical folklore, Raúl Castro presided over a military parade in Havana on Monday to honor his dead brother and mark the 58th anniversary of the Cuban Revolution.
But instead of railing against the Republican winner of the U.S. presidential election, who has already taunted and threatened the Cuban government with his infamous tweets, the theme was anti-Obama.
Apparently everybody loves a winner, and Raúl Castro is no exception. Hes ready to ditch President Barack Obama, who opened up to Cuba like no other U.S. president before him.
--------------
Listen to the war chant the marching troops were shouting in the parade:
Commander-in-Chief, command us. Command over this land. We are going to make war if imperialism comes. Obama! Obama! With what fervor wed like to confront your clumsiness, give you a cleansing with rebels and mortar, and make you a hat out of bullets to the head.

Hell no--their only hope for the almighty US dollar, in terms of tourism, is those of us who are open - hearted and open-minded....but when they start dissing our brother Barack, well, they can go fuck themselves for a bit longer.
Pffft. Obviously the Cuban Army is looking for a little insurgency or "peacekeeping" (i.e. strongarming) somewhere, and they're bored. Is Maduro not paying anymore?

Who shot this video?
A little critical analysis please because as you know most Cubans are favorable to Obama.

Incompetent regimes, like the Castros and the upcoming DJT regime, need foreign enemies to divert attention away from their own shortcomings.
