Cuba has abandoned "democracy", okay fair enough. But Cuba is faced with being overrun by an empire. The other noteable period of history in which the same can be said of is WW2. The UK was faced with an aggressive empire who wanted to control it. The UK response - abandon democracy, throw the brownshirt Hitlerites in prison, after all they were in support of the empire who looked to destroy what Britain provided its citizens. Cuba does the same. They should not be attacked for this, they should be applauded as Churchill was.
Your analogy is flawed. Hitler was much more Direct. America intervention in Cuba is less direct. If we wanted to "Overrun Cuba" They would be a Florida owned Hotel resort.
