Cuba's "Operation Miracle" celebrated throughout Latin America
Under Operation Miracle, Cubans and Venezuelans alike have benefited from surgical eye care. Tens of thousands of foreign nationals have traveled to Cuba for ophthalmology care. And Cuban ophthalmologists serving in Venezuela took the lead in establishing 26 eye care centers there. Staffed by eye surgeons, nurses, technicians, and other physicians, centers cropped up throughout Venezuela. They serve Venezuelans but also vision-impaired people from 17 Latin American countries plus Italy, Portugal, and Puerto Rico. Then Operation Miracle organizers established centers in 14 Latin American and Caribbean nations. Ten years after its start the program operates in 31 countries, some in Africa and Asia.


The program serves people denied eye care because of poverty and/or geographic inaccessibility. By far the most common cause of reduced vision the teams deal with is cataract. They also provide treatment for glaucoma, strabismus, retina problems, and abnormal growths. Corrective lenses are provided. These far-flung ophthalmology services are available for patients at no personal cost. So too are the transportation and accommodations they utilize.

According to one report, Operation Miracle has improved or restored vision for 3.4 million individuals. That measure of the project’s effectiveness takes on additional meaning through World Health Organization data showing that 39 million people in the world are blind. These figures are actually within reach of one another, especially because most visual impairment – 80 percent – is preventable or curable. It seems that two formerly colonized, dependent nations have taken giant steps toward addressing a major cause of human disability.

Also giving us a cure for lung cancer...Singapore PM saying he was admired by 80% of the world....

80% of the world is run by tin pot dictators so sure they would. The other 20% of the world however is not batshit crazy and they despised the fucking prick. Color me unsurprised that you support a mass murderer.

The India PM also admired him. Fought Cold War America and didn't get crushed...RIP that gd Cold War.

Isn't it cute the way they think any of the facts of the tyranny and atrocities perpetrated by Castro are "funny?"

I think they also adore the devil.

Cuba was better off than much of Latin America for most, and was perhaps forced into USSR communism.. Yeah, human rights not great. But not that many killed....obviously his weak point.

They weren't "forced into USSR communism." Castro did that by choice. What is it about you that is incapable of admitting the guy was a commie turd and treated Cuba and the people of Cuba like shit?

Each fall the UN vote is a welcome reminder that the world has not completely lost its senses and that the American empire does not completely control the opinion of all other governments. The real reason for Washington’s eternal hostility toward Cuba has not changed since the revolution in 1959 – The fear of a good example; the fear of an alternative to the capitalist model; a fear that has been validated repeatedly over the years as many Third World countries have expressed their admiration and gratitude toward Cuba.

US Has Killed More Than 20 Million People in 37 ...
http://www.globalresearch.ca/us-has...-37-victim-nations-since-world-war-ii/5492051
This study reveals that U.S. military forces were directly responsible for about 10 to 15 million deaths during the Korean and Vietnam Wars and the two Iraq Wars. The Korean War also includes Chinese deaths while the Vietnam War also includes fatalities in Cambodia and Laos.

The American public probably is not aware of these numbers and knows even less about the proxy wars for which the United States is also responsible. In the latter wars there were between nine and 14 million deaths in Afghanistan, Angola, Democratic Republic of the Congo, East Timor, Guatemala, Indonesia, Pakistan and Sudan.

But the victims are not just from big nations or one part of the world. The remaining deaths were in smaller ones which constitute over half the total number of nations. Virtually all parts of the world have been the target of U.S. intervention.

The overall conclusion reached is that the United States most likely has been responsible since WWII for the deaths of between 20 and 30 million people in wars and conflicts scattered over the world.

It is odd comrade that you never notice the murder torture atrocities committed by us en mass around the world

Yes, but that's different. The exceptional empire only wants to promote freedom, democracy and human rights around the world, unfortunately that leads to some collateral damage sometimes but it's all done for a worthwhile cause....

Too bad nobody put a bullet in the bastard's head back then

Too bad you are a moron ...

Too bad that.... actually nvm, good for you that you never had to live under Castro's atrocities. Sad that you seem to think those atrocities were a good thing.

Were they worse than Bush's?

Can you name any Bush "atrocities"?

Iraq WAR?
SO DUMB that war.

Dumb is probably the wrong word.

I in two minds as to whether the whole thing was set up. It's funny that the post war chaos actually benefited the right wing.

Funny how the US doesn't even promote democracy at home, but feels the need to "promote democracy" abroad by replacing DEMOCRATICALLY ELECTED leaders with American Puppets.
