      Same deal. They’ve suffered an unjust embargo, sure, but are under no real threat of invasion.

      I probably should have said Cuba in my main comment. Doesn’t look like it helped people understand, though!

        There’s nothing to understand, it’s the same situation. Neither Panama nor Cuba are currently under threat from the USA. The USA does not claim ownership over either, and is not threatening their sovereignty.

        You’re the one not understanding the false equivalency.

          Would you feel comfortable with China putting weapons on Cuba? Because the US got real upset last time, and as you said, the US doesn’t even have plans to invade Cuba (anymore)
