Spartan Meat

With Europe – a partnership
reading too much into –
the encounter –
Revolution and the Enlightenment!

A different strategy
a new approach-
opted –
pursued –
wanting –
more more more
U.S. policy  of
exports, German to Russia –
Double the value!

Facebook’s fundamental security interests:
eat “meat and live the good life!”
Spartan conditions on the island?
A new approach? A partnership?
No such thing.

in private hands within five years, the story continued to change.

a violent shadow war against Fidel Castro.

Down from his airplane onto the tarmac, now calling for that state’s partial dismantlement, to transform in earnest.
