And they all still lost.

Vietnam is another perfect example.
Ho CHi Min, Giap...both highly educated. Money from the USSR and the PRC.

anthonyc, do not forget the money ho chi minh got from the USA in the beginnings

Yep.

And where do you think Fidel got his money for his revolution?
I'll give you the answer...Upper East side of Manhattan.

just thought i would remind you, as you sometimes suffer from convenient amnesia.

What were we supposed to do??? Get everyone killed for the sake of winning.
Tell me your master plan!!!

Where are you from I wonder???

take it easy, Carlos. don't let this guy cause your blood pressure to go up. he talks tough, but ain't too much of anything, or he would have thrown down in cuba rather than split!

May I suggest some reading....Sun Zu, Von Clauswitz, Schwarzkopf.

You never enter a war unless you have a reasonable assurance you are going to win. The Commies who fought for Castro in the D.R. were saddly mistaken.

And if you do enter a war thinking you are going to win, you better have a good plan to leave. A good exit strategy. Number one mistake of the U.S. in Iraq


Second, why is everyone talking about revolution specifically armed revolutions. To bring about change in DR an armed social revolution is not necessary. Yes money has always played in important part and will always continue to do so. But to attract money you must have a good idea, plan and effective communication strategy. One that can reach all segments of society. Unfortunately this is a major hurdle.
