Is this an actual quote?

    I seriously doubt it, right? Why would castro be centering zionism as the be all and end all of the american state in 1960?

    If it was imperialism or capitalism then maybe.

    If instead of Zionism it said imperialist or capitalist I wouldn't doubt is a real quote. Not because Zionism isn't imperialism, but because on the 60's wasn't something a lot of people talked about. Maybe Castro was super based and talked about that since the 60's, but I think it would be something that I already knew if that was the case.

    Guessing the answer is a resounding “no”.

    Here’s the text for anyone wanting to keyword search for evidence of made up shit:

    When Cuban President Castro was asked about the US elections in 1960, which would you prefer Nixon or Kennedy? He answered: It is not possible to make a comparison between two shoes that the same person wears. America is ruled by only one party, which is the Zionist party, and it has two wings: The republican wing represents the hard-line Zionist power, and the Democratic wing represents the Zionist soft power There is no difference in goals and strategies. As for the means and tools, they differ slightly to give each president a kind of privacy and space for movement.
