I hope that if we push for Democracy, it works better than it has in Iraq and every where else that has sprung up with a Democratically elected government lately.. seems those people aren't really benefiting so much from freedom

China never wanted to annihiliate the United States with nuclear weapons.

And Cuba did? Or they were used as a pawn of the USSR?

Fact is, they're both Communist. Both have their problems, but we continually overlook China's because trade is beneficial to us.

Actually, I believe it was in Fog Of War where Mcnamara said when he went to Cuba and spoke with Castro, he was more than willing to nuke the US even if it meant the destruction of his country.
