In The Workers' Paradise Um, people, this is not the Cuban missile crisis.

Um, people, this is not the Cuban missile crisis. This is a cute kid and we all want what's best for him, but the future of the Republic does not hang on the fate of one six year-old boy. We have no trade with these people, so sanctions are impossible. They can't declare a war, unless they want to discover exactly how few American troops its takes to wallop the whole Cuban military-industrial complex. The Cubans can, however, boycott international academic symposia in places like Caracas and Cambridge.
