Kick Ass, Take Names

Part II of Dealing with Castro is up over at the Diplomad and it's even better than Part I.

I love this:

...Some might argue that the bulk of Castro's seriously hostile acts against the US are years old, that he no longer presents a danger to the US, and that we should forget about him (Note: This argument, in fact, was made to us by an Italian and an Argentine diplomat.) They might also argue that time will take care of Castro, and might ask, what's the point of working to have him removed and his regime dismantled?

We have a one-word answer to this line of questioning: Justice, or perhaps, Payback. Whichever word, it comes down to not letting the old killer die peacefully in bed with his delusions intact. He should feel the fear and degradation he inflicted on hundreds-of-thousands of people; he should live long enough to see his life's work dismantled. Just as the world community rightly pursued old and out-of-power Nazi criminals for decades after WWII, it should likewise pursue this mass murderer, punish him, and ensure that the regime he created does not survive.

I couldnt agree more. Read the whole beautiful thing.
