The World has moved on in the last 50 years,its about time America moved on too.Cuba isn't a threat to America or anyone else for that matter.Since the revolution more good things have come out Cuba than bad.Especially their doctors ,come to mind.The majority of cubans seem happy with their life too.

Given what Cuba has managed to achieve while under a 48 year trade embargo I really think they deserve some credit. I have visited Cuba a number of times over the last 20 years and have many Cuban friends living there and around the world. Only the US holds Cuba to be some monstrous state in need of suppression, the rest of the world (while trying not to upset the US) see Cuba as just another country to do business with or visit. It isn’t the horrible place that Washington would have the people of America believe. And you can take what the US Cubans say with a pinch of salt, trust me, for the most part you wouldn’t want one of them living next door to you. As for this fool distributing “communications” equipment what did he expect? Can you imagine what would have been done to a Cuban national doing the same thing in the US, he too would have been arrested, what else?

Minello, Who are you to tell us, those of us who families come from Cuba that we should just drop everything to satisfy you? First of all, there are a lot of us whose family members are behind bars for no reason. There are those of us who parents, grandparents, had everything stolen from them, and there are those of us who have had their family members killed by Castro's gang.

Since the revolution more good things have come out Cuba than bad.Especially their doctors ,come to mind.The majority of cubans seem happy with their life too." You are one ignorant white boy. first of all, its a myth that everyone outside Havana recieves such medical services (you and the fat Mike Moore need to come to Miami and ask the real people) (http://therealcuba.com/two_cubas.htm). The others you talk of those that have been brain washed by 50 years of Castro who has lived a large and rich life but keeping the bottom "communist" while he rakes in the benefits himself. he's nothing more than a Kim. (http://therealcuba.com/Castro%20the%20multimillionaire.htm)

We call you types pigs. Instead of listening to your left-rich white news, why don't you listen a bit to the Spanish media more often. Even our left has abandoned Castro.

If it time for anything to move on, its Castro - he is a self imposed King and we are offended at you types.

the rest of the world (while trying not to upset the US) see Cuba as just another country to do business with or visit." And that money goes right to Castro - he is after on the Forbes

It isn’t the horrible place that Washington would have the people of America believe." That is correct, but it certainly isn't the paradise you and your mike moore elk make it out either. Nor is it as multi-racial tolerant as many of you want to make it out to be.

And you can take what the US Cubans say with a pinch of salt, trust me, for the most part you wouldn’t want one of them living next door to you." Really? Sounds a bit racist to me. But ok, we wouldn't want to live next door to a person he chooses to believe what is not really there either.

As for this fool distributing “communications” equipment what did he expect?" Well, then one should choose their revolutions a bit more carefully..... I'll watch out for your future posts and keep this one handy. I'd say your statement is very hypocritical!

As a quite old black Caribbean brought up in Europe (mainly the UK) and Colombia I think I know what racism is. My Spanish may not be brilliant, but it is more than adequate to read the Spanish language papers, which I do read and they really do have a very different slant on Cuba than the English language papers. And I have met the crazy Miami Cubans and you know every bit as well as I that some of these people are out and out fanatics and as such are blind to anything good that can be said about Cuba today. As for Michael More, please, do me a favour, that man is a waste of space.

blind to anything good that can be said about Cuba today" If you had any Cuban in you, you would understand that many people have lost a lot including blood. But because it fits your agenda, its ok - right!
