General Discussion>Cuba readying defenses for "Second US invasion"

I just saw this on CNN. Cuba was trotting out its old Soviet era weapons for war games "in case the US got any ideas" If Cuba had an embassy in the US I would "accidentally" bomb it and be like. "Whoops".

Maybe we can send a carrier group in international waters just off their shores and conduct some "war games" of our own?

Maybe we can build them an embassy somewhere and then "accidentally" bomb it?

Yes I realize that we have a military base at Guantanamo. The Cubans dont exactly have a say in that either. But this post isint about Gitmo. Its about the Cubans bringing all their old Soviet gear out and having the balls to say that they are "ready" for a US invasion.

ah yes, the "invasion" they have prepped for since the 80's.

Of course, we won't go into the simple numbers -

That would be a decrease of over 170,000 troops since the wall fell down, not to mention the "purge" that resulted in the execution of MajGen Ochoa and the Ministry of the Interior Col de La Guardia because Castro felt they were too popular.

So, they're wargaming. That's it. Same thing they've been doing for the past umpteen years.

I was in elementary school the last time they pointed those pieces of crap at us, figure they are about as old and tired as I am so not too worried I guess.
