<< That bunch controls the area, they do not tolerate dissent - without accepting their party line there is no way he could have personally rescued his son. >>

This is absolute nonsense. Sure, the Miami Cuban Exile community are united against Castro's cruel dictatorship, and they are angry of the stealing of their property and the murder of their relatives back in Cuba.

But, on other issues, there is plenty of dissent within their ranks. You see their humanity in the way that they took a little boy into their community and nursed him back to mental and physical health after the horrendous ordeal of fleeing from Castro's tyranny.

I live down here in Miami and I am not Hispanic. I find the Cuban Exile community to be warm and friendly, and Juan would have found it the same as me.

OTOH, they share an equal hatred for Castro, for the horrors of what Castro has done to Cuba and the Cuban people.
