Comment operation mongoose (Score 1) 2574
Unfortunately there may have never been a time when the US had a claim to the moral high ground. Operation Mongoose, which is well know for its attempts to assassinate Castro, turns out to pretty much be a rigorous terrorist operation against Cuba by the CIA.

I've been trying to verify claims I've read by Noam Chomsky. It looks like he's right, that the US is responsible for a wide range of terrorist operations in Cuba. The government documents describe them as sabotage. Targets include airliners, hotels, factories, livestock, and fuel tanks. It's depressing that there's documented proof from our own government of its terrorist actions. What's worse is nobody seems to care.
