The US invaded and seized Guantanamo Bay in 1898. What was the cause for that?

It's a standard American imperial idea. The US seizure and continual occupation of Guantanamo Bay is "legal". Cubans reclaiming what Americans stole in other parts of Cuba is "illegal".

It's quite a joke. The US invading and seizing sugar plantations from 1898 to 1959 is legal, the American thieves being driven out is "illegal" and "without any compensation".

This sort of imperial hubris is why Arabian patriots have been flying planes into the Pentagon.

You've been using HN primarily for ideological battle. It's normal to comment occasionally on a politicized topic, but using the site primarily for this is crossing the line that the guidelines draw: https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html. There are lots of reasons why we draw the line there, but what it boils down to is that we can't both have a site for intellectual curiosity—the mandate of this place—and also have ideological warfare. The one destroys the other, regardless of which ideology you favor. Flamewar comments like the one you just posted are an excellent illustration of this.

If you'd please review the site rules and use this place as intended from now on, we'd appreciate it.
