ah and as for everymn the invasion took place in 1960 when castro assumed power in 1959 so i do not think that the us invasion had anything to do with humanitarian feelings neither the help of some cubans if any had anything to do besides the fact that they were priviliged under batista's regime that the us had established in the first place. The us were simply afraid of the fact that cuba would be ruled by communists. |

| Ramones – Havana Affair Lyrics | 17 years ago |
| This is song as abovementioned refers to the bay of pigs invasion. As for the word "banana" it is been said that it refers to the great influence that the united fruit company (now united brands corporation --> chiquita) has had on us foreign affairs policy in south america. In particular that company through us intelligence agencies interfered in the interior of several latin american countries and even set up dictatorships when its interests where at risk. Anyway it is just one interpretation.I do not thing that the particular incident in cuba had anything to do with the united fruit company. | |
