You ignorant self-righteous Americans think you know best all the time . . .
Spare me the arguments about the evils of Castro and communism. Until you have been to Cuba and seen with your own eyes you have no clue what you are talking about and no right to have your opinions taken seriously.

I have been to Cuba, and while it may not be a "perfect" society, neither is the U.S. with kids taking guns to school and blowing each other away, and a history of racism which still limits many people. (No I am not a raving commie, just an open minded Canadian).

It is hypocritical to knock Cuba when the U.S. is quite happy to do business with China, which is arguably a much more repressive regime.

In any case my intention is not to engage in political debate but rather to point out the folly of justifying the political arguments that are being proposed on this board for keeping Elian in the US.

Forget all the politicall bullshit and let this boy be with his father.

Have your politcal arguments as much as you like but don't hold this boy captive to your uninformed views.
