    The report alleged the man, a Cuban residing in Florida, had entered Cuba illegally on a jetski with a Florida registration, which he then abandoned in a mangrove swamp on the island`s north coast before making his way overland to Cienfuegos, in south-central Cuba.

    The man then attempted to recruit others to assist in committing acts of violence, arson and vandalism before his eventual arrest, according to the report.

    I like how the plot consists of bringing a few handguns on a jet ski, abandoning the jet ski in a tidal flood zone, and then wandering around the first town he found asking strangers if they’d like to commit arson.

      I personally imagine that the dude is a turbo crakkka who didn’t speak a word of Spanish and just tried to recruit terrorists in increasingly loud and slow English.

      real invasion of sark feel:

      In late August 1990, an unemployed French nuclear physicist named André Gardes, armed with a semi-automatic weapon, attempted an invasion of Sark. The night Gardes arrived, he put up two posters declaring his intention to take over the island the following day at noon. The following day he started a solo foot patrol in front of the manor, in battle-dress, weapon in hand. While Gardes was sitting on a bench waiting for noon to arrive, the island’s volunteer connétable approached the Frenchman and complimented him on the quality of his weapon.[24] Gardes then proceeded to change the gun’s magazine, at which point he was tackled to the ground, arrested, and given a seven-day sentence which he served in Guernsey

      This is even more comical than the US coup attempt against Venezuela that was thwarted by unarmed fishermen who just happened to be around at the time.

        I don’t know. That was a fisherman militia and we got a photo of yankee pig-dogs pissing themselves on the ground. It was such a beautiful moment in the death of empire.

        This is hilarious but it needs an iconic photo that highlights the absurdity.
