Answer:

He said that because Cuba was ruled by a communist government led by Comandante Fidel Castro. In the early 1960s, the Cuban revolutionary government (it had expelled USA-backed dictator Fulgencio Batista from power) nationalized numerous foreign properties and assests, many of them belonging to US companies, without indemnization.

The US government started a trade and economic embargo against the Cuban state as a reaction. After the CIA-sponsored Bay Pigs failed invasion of 1961, the Castro government became even more radical, declaring the Cuban Revolution a Communist revolution and getting close to the Soviet Union, which announced it would buy all the Cuban sugar the US had stopped importing.

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

After more than a century of the kingdom of Israel under <em><u>Saul, David, and Solomon</u></em>, the kingdom was divided between <em><u>Rehoboam</u></em> in the south, and <em><u>Jeroboam</u></em> in the north.

Explanation:

During the Old Testament times, the kingdom of Israel was ruled by numerous kings that the Lord appointed. But often at times being passed from one to another among the same family, the kings also were removed by the Lord if they disobeyed or behaved against his will.

In those periods, the people of Israel were under the guidance of the priests who passed on the directives from God. But with the death of the prophet Eli and the aging Samuel, Israel demanded to be given a king to rule and lead them in wars. So, God directed prophet Samuel to anoint Saul as king of Israel (1 Samuel 10). After him came David, son of Jesse (1 Samuel 16), succeeded by his son Solomon (1 Kings 1:28- 36). After Solomon drifted away from God, the kingdom of Israel was divided into two, the south ruled by Rehoboam(1 Kings 14:21)  and the North ruled by Jeroboam (1 Kings 11: 26- 40).

Why the American Revolution was not as brutal as the French and Russian Revolutions.
Dovator [93]
All those revolutions are or were fighting an enemy with nowhere to go. Both sides have to either win or die. 

The American Revolution was against the British who lived far away and at some point found the cost of fighting across an ocean too high for the expected return and decided to stay in the comfort of their home.

<span>There is no home comfort to return to when you fight at home, so you keep fighting knowing your enemy is on the same predicament so you can't expect an easy surrender.</span>
