Castro still in power

[AlecSeattle]

Removing Castro and invading Cuba would be a very good business for America. Imagine Hawaii on a East Coast.And the best part, cubans would be happy for a change.So whats stopping american invasion?

В принципе, ничего. Но это будет просто дурью, ибо не имеет никакого смысла, а на голову американского руководства опять будут сыпаться шишки.

Кастро все равно отдаст Богу душу рано или поздно, тогда и весь его режим накроется. Тем более, что стратегической ценности Куба для США не представляет.

"...on a East Coast..." You wanted to say "...on AN East Coast". How many East Coasts has America? Wouldn't it be better to say "...on THE East coast".

AND it's not true that the Cubans would be happy if the USA invaded their country: they are too proud to be Cubans, not Yankees. So what's stopping an American invasion? Los Americanos simplemente no tienen cojones para invadir Cuba !!!

Not a big deal! Some people say: V Ukr... Oh, I should stop it!

You'd better. Even saying ".. on AN East(ern) Coast..." implies that there are SEVERAL (i.e. more than one) of them, which is not true. So, the only right way here is to say "..on THE East(ern) Coast". Everybody knows at once what coast you are referring to. That simple. Your allusion to "V Ukrainu..", as opposed to "Na Ukrainu..." has nothing to do here. The Russian Grammar does not allow the use of articles, though some Northern Russian dialects DO use articles, in a way which is curiously very similar to their use in the Bulgarian language: Трактор-от, грибы-ти, корова-та.... So, some Northern Russians would never misuse "a/an" and "the", as they have a natural feel for the articles in their blood.

IMHO, вроде договоренность с Союзом была.
Так что по етому поводу тоже шум поднимется.

Верно, JFK пообещал Кубу не трогать. А также правительство США, может, ещё помнят Bay of Pigs Invasion? Правда, сейчас можно вполне оффициально обрушиться полной военной мощью на несчастную Кубу, но кому она нужна? Борбьа с коммунизмом уже не так актуальна, и соответственно, интерес к Кубе потерян.
