WASHINGTON — Military planning for a possible Pentagon-led operation in Cuba is quietly ramping up, in case President Donald Trump gives an order to intervene there, USA TODAY has learned.
Two sources familiar with the order spoke to USA TODAY on condition of anonymity because they’re not authorized to speak to media.
The directives appear to be an escalation of recent tensions between the U.S. and Cuba that began in January when the Trump administration curbed oil shipments to Cuba as part of a broader campaign to force sweeping political changes on the communist-run island.



Americans benefit for imperialism, its the reason even poorest americans has obesity problems and 9 million people starve to death every year. America benefits by these wars and invasions and so do its citizens so they dont care about millions of people dying as long as they are able to get better lifestyle than most of the world. Americans wont care until they are bombed even 10% of lebanon iran gaza and countless other nations america bombed. Americans need to see destruction of war and loose their families then maybe they will understand but this will never happen so americans wont take any action either.
