On January 1 2019, the Cuban people will celebrate the 60th anniversary of their revolution. Following years of struggle Cubans finally defeated the forces of the brutal dictator Fulgencia Batista and his backers in the United States. Yet as Fidel Castro famously predicted the United States would never cease in its efforts to destroy the revolution.
“This revolution needs to depend on power, because the enemies will not give up easily. Imperialism, using all its resources, will not leave us in peace.”
The history of the revolution reads as a David versus Goliath struggle against an onslaught of violent aggression, invasion and intervention from its northerly neighbour.
