Here is the culprit that brought it up, all the same. 
"I think i can do anything i want with it, if you want to know the truth, a very weakened nation right now."
Think how that sounds?
And from a socalled "stable genius" no less.
"Yet so it is, we see the illiterate bulk of mankind that walk the high-road of plain common sense, and are governed by the dictates of nature, for the most part easy and undisturbed. To them nothing that is familiar appears unaccountable or difficult to comprehend."

This just illustrates haw fragile dictatorships are.
You must develop the ability to be disliked in order to free yourself from the prison of other people's opinions.

Thats true.
Mainly because they rely on coercion and a narrow, paranoid circle of power, rather than legitimate support.
But do you know what else is fragile and highly vulnerable to disruptions?
Global supply chains.
And taking Cuba could well disrupt the chain, especially where sugar, nickel, and shipping through the Caribbean, are concerned.
I mean, how much more war, pain, and strife, does the world need DB?
This is getting ridiculous...

Yeah ... okay ... got it. 
I would not call it a free pass.
The folks in charge of Iran are a lot more likely to have a short lifespan, ending in a violent death.

Reminds me of a few people.
Putin, Xi Jinping, Kim Jong-un, Bashar al-Assad, Viktor Orbán.
I'm sure there is somebody else closer to home on the tip of my tongue...
