Cuba: check. Venezuela next?
It is hard to find a good news story on which to end 2014.
Everywhere one looks there seems to be grim news: the war in Syria that drags mercilessly toward its fourth year, the reign of terror unleashed by ISIS militants in Iraq and Syria, a new civil war in South Sudan, warring militias in Libya, a string of heartbreaking plane crashes in Asia, and the Ebola crisis in West Africa.

The new
year should be about hope. One story that inspires such hope is Cuba.
More specifically, the island’s relationship with its longtime
adversary: the United States of America.
