Johnson with his ~73,000 Vietnam War dead (American deaths only) came to mind. Though I don't recall specifically the dictators he supported under his administration so I can't correlate the 11 million enslaved.
And Bush the first killed roughly 100,000 Iraqis during the first war, and then allowed Sadaam to remain in power, enslaving roughly 25 million. Oh, and Reagan propped up quite a few central american dictatorships during his terms, easily surpassing the '11 million enslaved' number. Damn, you're making Castro out to be some kind of wimp or something! No wonder we hate him so much, he doesn't even kick ass like we do! And so un-American of him to unilaterally kick out the US corporations and Mafia who were actually enslaving his country. Bastard! At least he could've allowed them by proxy as Sadaam and the South African apartheid governments did! Geez! ------------------------ Yahoo!
