***why you chose Cuba to single out for your screed.

As I mentioned before, I speak about something that touches me. This one did. What is wrong with that? It WAS one significant event.


***Got a bad cotraband cigar? Or something that just rankles your White Russian soul?

Why White Russian (no idea what you mean here)? As opposed to Red Russian? Black Russian? Russian blue from cold with red nose?

***I know the raid to get the boy disturbed your insomniac film fest
but what were the other options.

Why, following the law, of course. Do what court decides. I see nothing wrong with that one.


***Why didnt those good law abiding relatives just turn the boy over. Its not like he was going to be sent to a death camp.

Perhaps he was. Any Cuban might be. Cuba is not some country where law means anything.

***He was just going to his father, who I assume, just happens to be a red. What should have been a purely personal issue was turned into a political one, being cashed in on by pundits on both sides.

There is element of this, but while the relatives played it passively and had NO POWER of violating court decision, the Reno's troops did just that.


***Once again if the situation somehow involved the mainland Chinese would it have been as big an issue politicaly, or in the media?

I guess you would have to come up with that particular issue and then we would see.


***Do the Chinese have less of a record of mass murder? Mao might have been the heavy weight champ.

Chinese are among the leaders in human rights violations. But they also contribute heavily to certain political compaigns. Perhaps this is the reason.

***Why is there a embargo against Cuba, while trade with China is encouraged. How about your incisive political analysis of the Tianamen square incident?

Both countries should be dealt with harshly. They both have tremendous records of human rights vilations. I see no inconsistency here at all. In fact, this administration's treatment of communist human rights vilators have been extremely consistent across the board.

They even play with Asad and Quadafy. What could be more cynical than this?
