Reply #134: Your observations were absolutely accurate.

I'd like to repeat your remarks, as they are surely appropriate:

Family remittances are completely legal and wanted. No one in Cuba is persecuted for receiving family financial assistance in Cuba from relative outside of Cuba. You are just making shit up!

It was the Bush admin that recently reduced the amount of money that relatives in the US could send to Cubans, as well as reduced the legality of trips that Cuban immigrants (with direct relatives only) can take back to Cuba to once every 3 years instead on the annual trips they used to take.

At the same time congress and the Bush admin has increased the funding of "dissident" groups in Cuba -that the real Cuban domestic opposition parties decry.

This is further evidence that the US government's mission isn't intended to help all Cubans, but only a select few Cubans - those who aid and abet the declared enemy of Cuba.

Its interesting that you never seem to address the fact that Cuba has a right to defend itself from the avowed enemy and those who illegally aid and abet said enemy (the US gov). Instead, you just make shit up with endless target shifting and false scenarios. You don't know much about the current Cuba and your posts bear that out. When your falsehoods are disproved you simply make up more shit and false scenarios in endless attempts at target shifting. This isn't a method of genuine debate, it just obvious 'moving the goal post' distraction. All in all, you never seem to address the fact that Cuba has a right to defend itself from the avowed enemy and those who illegally aid and abet said enemy (the US gov), but you have constantly defended the Cubans who commit treason by aiding and abetting the enemy of their country. By doing so you are, to some degree, supporting the Bush agenda to overthrow the sovereign government of Cuba in order to place Cuba under US aegis once again. Cubans rejected that in the late 1950's and they still do.

It always needs to be illuminated when it happens. Thanks.
