Tides rise, borders change, powers rise and fall. It's the cost of doing business, the risk offset by the potential opportunity in a country that at the time was combatting a political uprising. Unfortunately they were on the wrong side of that coin and Cuba doesn't owe them shit.

I find myself agreeing with this. Any business with holdings in Cuba surely factored in the economic risk inherent in operating within another country's laws.

Private individuals, I'm less sure about.
