2. Get A Clue
I signed up just to reply to this. How far off base and biased can you be. I am a Cuban American and my father was put in prison for 3 years for attempting to leave the island. He was not in the mafia and certainly not making it off poor Cubanos. He was a poor Cubano, only 16 at the time.

After prison, he met my mother in Havana they had a family and were able to leave the country.

People who speak about Cuba without knowledge about how it WAS really get my GOAT. A lot has changed now since people in Miami flood it with dollars and the new immigrant is different.

The embargo should be lifted and relations should be normalized. But to portray that regime in any other light but murderous shows a lack of historical sense or plain idolatry due to propagandist portrayal.

Innocent people were murdered. My father was taken to an interrogation room several times after days of solitary confinement in a room with a bright light, he would not know if it was day time or night time. They would start asking him if he remembered killing women and children. He never confessed.

He was 16 , His crime , wanting to go to key west.
