With the succession of Raul Castro as the President of Cuba, it appears that things in Cuba are beginning to turn for the better. Castro has lifted many bans that were put in place by his brother, Fidel. He has also put in place many bits of legislation that will change Cuba's political system. The United States and other foreign governments are considering reopening trade with Cuba and some negotiations are currently underway.


The changes undertaken by Castro have been exposed as a ruse. Castro announced a few days ago that massive restrictions were going to be placed on Cuban citizens. This action closed negotiations on trade agreements, and began massive military conscription. The US Military Intelligence believes that Castro plans to expand his control of the Caribbean,with the help of a Russian GRU-SV8 Spetsnaz Unit who went rogue several years ago. The US Joint Chiefs have decided that a preemptive strike against Castro and the Cuban Military Forces, US Military forces are preparing to launch a massive Air Assault campaign from Homestead AFB and assault an area around the Presidential compound and key military instillations outside of Havana. USSOCOM forces are preparing to launch covert operations against key targets prior to the assault.
