<< The downside of the positive approach is that the failure to condemn appears to be giving aid and comfort to the enemy and looks to true believers like a weakening of valued principles. >> There are two main sides in this dispute. You have the Cuban exile families, who have had their property taken away, members of their families put into prison for years, members of their families murdered by Castro's regime, and have had thousands of children separated from their parents without much hope of being reunited. These are the victims of Castro's selfish and ruthless government. The other side, of course, is Castro's. Those that condemn the victims, of any crime, give aid and comfort to the criminals. It's not a matter of weakened principles as much as it is a lack of principles. << There is no need to demonize them. >> What if the shoe fits? (footnote: I appreciate the substance of your note, your different view, and the absence of demonizing. <g>)
