melsbells OP , 13 days ago " we are left to ask, what could the Revolutionary people of Cuba achieve if they were left in peace - if they were finally given the chance to prosper, and not just survive." Revolutionary cuba, it appears, wrote the rule book on resilience. However, it's best for resistance has been not just the assertion of national sovereignty, but the creation of an alternative model of development that places human welfare and environmental concerns at its core. That this poor, blockaded island has achieved the world leading human development indicators, that it mobilizes the world's largest International humanitarian assistance, that it is contributed to Global Innovations in medical science, that is contributions in culture and the Arts are admired throughout the world, is an achievement to be examined and respected. We are left to ask, what could the Revolutionary people of Cuba achieve if they were left in peace if they were finally given the chance to prosper, and not just survive
