I noticed, though your blog seems to be quiet full of commentary and rederick, it does not seem to have to many concrete facts. It makes me wonder just how informed on Cuba (and the rest of latin america)the commentators. I will not bore you with my opinion. But I will inform you of some facts you may not be aware of. Although , Cubans may not have as many cell phones as the rest of the world, they do have more doctors per capita then the rest of latin america and the united states. The life expectancy is equal in Cuba to that of the US, also Cuba dedicates more of its budget per capita and percent wise to education. Secondary school enrolement sits at 81% while in the US it is 97%, enrollement falls to 13% for tertiarary level education while in the US it is at 81%. Cuba has also been named as the only country with environmentally sustainable economic development. Since, I'am almost sure that the automatic reponse is to claim these sources are bias, they are from United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization Human Development Report and the WWF. Here are the websites: http://hdr.undp.org/reports/global/2005/<BR/>http://www.zeenews.com/articles.asp?rep=2&aid=331619&sid=ENV&ssid=26<BR/>For those of you who are not swayed by these figures, I would suggest visitng latin America and Cuba. Since I am almost positive anyone with analytical abilities would be able to see how much better off Cuba is then the rest of Latin America. <BR/><BR/> Carlos<BR/>With all do respect,<BR/>Viva Fidel, la revolucion, y Cuba.<BR/><BR/>Long live Fidel, the revolution and Cuba. Since Im sure many of you dont speak Spanish.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15792370.post-13601185783873509932007-02-19T10:38:00.000-08:002007-02-19T10:38:00.000-08:00the only classsmates in cuba that have cell phones...the only classsmates in cuba that have cell phones are the daugthers and sons of the coroneles, capitanes, del ejercito, in other words the nomenclatura ..the oppressors of the cuban people<BR/>it is not a money issue , it is a reppressive isueFantomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17349273596944526270noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15792370.post-84052632992816385322007-02-19T10:11:00.000-08:002007-02-19T10:11:00.000-08:00by the way, some cubans do have cell phones.

Of course Castro hates us we are nonstop letting the world know about his evil regime. Here we can speak up unlike the people of Cuba.

Miami mafia." What kind of statement is that? You're either for or against the dictatorship, no middle ground here. The post must of really hit a nerve and we all know it's the truth. We can have arguements and discussions all day long about the embargo, but one thing for sure:<BR/><BR/>CUBA IS NOT FREE AND THE DICTATOR HAS CONTROLLED CUBA FOR 48 YEARS.<BR/><BR/><BR/>No justification, rationalization, divisional ploy, or anything can justify the apartheid dictatorship. NOTHING!!!! let's see... ONE FAMILY HAS CONTROLLED CUBA FOR 48 YEARS, I believe the term MAFIA applies here. As you can see I never censor anything here, it's total FREEDOM. Try this in Cuber and see what that gets you?<BR/><BR/>"raul might rule for nother 20 years" This might happen because outside of Cubans, NO ONE HAS THE GUTS TO PRINT OR SAY THE TRUTH. THE MEDIA HAS HELPED THIS BRUTAL DICTATORSHIP BECAUSE THEY ARE LEFTIES. If they were of the right, THE MEDIA WOULD OF HAD A FIELD DAY LONG AGO!<BR/><BR/><BR/>ONLY ONE FAMILY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DESTRUCTION IN CUBA, SO THE blame game is old and no one believes it anymore.<BR/><BR/>Fidelito, looks like you have had some else assigned to monitor my blog.

A few Cuban-American legislators who have lived in the United States for decades and represent militantly anti-Castro constituencies with their own understandable (but misguided) agendas and their declining supporters around the country? Or the people of Cuba, including the dissidents on the front lines and in jail? The latter, of course, and Cubans generally and the dissidents in particular want to see more Americans, not fewer, on the island. Embargo supporters, however, promise fewer visitors but more moral and material support for the dissidents. Two years ago, Palacios told me that dissidents are very uncomfortable with aid from abroad, particularly from Washington, even when they take it, because it “burns.” It certainly “burned” the 75 dissidents arrested in early 2003 because the Castro regime used contacts with the U.S. government and receipt of support from Americans to “prove” democratic advocates were agents of American imperialism.
