More Wikipedia arguments...
Here's my latest Wikipedia post. Please, please, please swing by Wikipedia and help a brutha out...
There is clearly such a pro-castro, pro-cuban-government agenda being pushed here that it is sickening. From the Che mural and the "Cuba following Communism" section that was renamed solely for keeping THE UNNECESSARY AND CONTROVERSIAL OBSCURE GRAFITTI OF CHE, to the tone and overt phrasing of several sections including:
"While the Eisenhower administration had initially welcomed Batista’s fall, the nationalization of U.S. owned companies (to an estimated value of US$1 billion) and the expulsion of many political conservatives with influential friends in the U.S., aroused immediate hostility and the Cuban exiles soon became the powerful lobby group in the U.S. that they have been ever since."
What? An encyclopedic article is basically saying that money was the driving, primary force behind the hostility toward fidel and his government.
and:
"Thus the U.S. became increasingly hostile to Castro during 1959. This in turn served to drive Castro away from the liberal elements of his revolutionary movement and into the arms of the Communists."
So the United States caused castro to turn to communism... WHAT!? IS THE POV POLICE TAKING A NAP?!?
