My friend whose uncle was murdered by FARC will be happy to know Cuba no longer supports terrorism.

I'm sorry to hear about your friend's uncle's fate.

But look at the bright side of this announcement! This is not about Cuba supporting terrorism or not. It's about the US government taking the Cuban government off its list labeled "governments supporting terrorism". Two governments are improving their communication.

With some luck, this will help diminish state (sponsored) violence against innocent people a little bit.
