The United States government has been quite cavalier when it comes to shipping weapons to unsavory countries. The arming of the Syrian rebels is proof enough of that claim. But after a Hellfire missile ended up in Cuba, many, including members of the federal government, are scratching their heads in confusion.
U.S. Defense officials are investigating how the missile sent to Europe in 2014 for a training mission in Spain ended up in Cuba instead of being returned to Florida. Was it deliberate? Or was this another one of the Obama Administration’s blunders? They’ve reached out to Cuban leadership, requesting the missile be returned, and of course, they have refused.
While the United States government continues discussions with Cuba in an effort to secure the weapon’s safe return, it’s important to remember that the U.S. and Cuba have only recently restored diplomatic relations, after fifty years of hostility. The $65,000 dollar missile was sent from Lockheed Martin to Spain, where it was used in a training exercise and never made it home.

Probably were supposed to go to Isis or some stupid$#%&!@*what ever
We give weapons to other countries all the time even before Obama took office. We even sale our radar system to other countries but not the best stuff tho that’s for us. We did contracts for Israel, Norway, Austrialia, France, ect. But we won’t sale out aegis system to nobody. I remember when the USS cole was attacked before bush took office. Bin laden did that attack to. The navy brought that radar system back to where I worked. And the radar system cabinet was all burnt up. And we plugged that radar in and that thing still worked even tho it took a directed hit. The people that builds out military stuff and our men and women serving our country know we have the best stuff. And the people that say different dont know what the hell their talking about Russia or china having better stuff no they don’t if you don’t work for the military or serve you don’t know$#%&!@* Stop acting like you do.
Wonder who got the Kenyan beads ?
Say What??!!’
Everybody knows this was no mistake Obama knew he was sending these missiles to cuba
The only things the federal government was designed to do is balance our budget and protect our borders. I say until they can get this right, take everything else away and give it to the state.
This is a mistake like his sending weapons to ISIS and Toyota Trucks and Stinger Missles etc….
this is not the first time it happen
The government is a stupid bunch of asshole
THIS IS ALARMING TO THE FAILURES UNDER OBAMA AND NO ONE RESPONSIBLE EXCEPT A PERSON THAT’S NOT BEEN HERE IN 7
