Again, there is no need to insult me. What is up with that? I'm trying to have a serious discussion to learn more from you, and you insult me? Anyhow, I can name a half dozen countries that have peacfully made the transition from communism to democracy/free market peacefully: Russia, Ukraine, Poland, Eastern Germany, Chezc Republic, Slovakia. Yes, there was some disruption around 1990 when these countries made their transitions, but there wasn't wide spread choas or civil war. It was a relatively peaceful transition. Please state your case (without insults) about why you think post-Castro Cuba is destined to be another Balkan mess? I'm trying to learn something here. I'm open to hearing your views.
