They need a new name

Here are some excerpts from the speeches from the Nonaligned Movement summit in Cuba

"When there no longer is a Cold War, the United States spends one billion dollars a year in weapons and soldiers and it squanders a similar amount in commercial publicity," he said. "To think that a social and economic order that has proven unsustainable could be maintained by force is simply an absurd idea." [Raul Castro]

"Under any scenario, we are with you just like we are with Cuba," Chavez told Iran. "If the United States invades Cuba, blood will run. ... We will not have our arms crossed while bombs are falling in Havana or they carry Raul off in a plane." [Hugo Chavez]
So  why is this called Non-Aligned Movement again?

How about Non-Alive Movement?

These guys are having the worst delusions of power right. I think the only way they can make themselves important is by posturing themselves against something that is truly powerfull and important.
