Did a body guard accompany you on your vacation? How did you get away?

How about if Juan decides he and Elian should stay, then a year later decides he wants to be a Canadian citizen because he thinks America treated him poorly. Would Juan and Elian be forced to stay in America? Who will make sure that they stay in America? What if they just want to go on vacation to Canada, or Mexico or Cuba. What if Juan wanted to take Elian back to Cuba to visit his grandparents. Would we have to stop them? Do the exiles want to force Juan and Elian to live in the exile community in Miami to make sure they don't escape?

Just stop and think about the ridiculous scenarios you can devise. Would the exile leadership hire spies to follow them around to make sure they didn't try to make a run for it? Would phones be tapped? Would there be ("body") guards that followed them around? Would that crazy Miami mayor involve the police? Sounds a lot worse than the Cuba the exile community says is so awful that Elian should be torn from his father.

That should tell you something about the Miami relatives and their lack of logical reasoning ability.

They won't address the Eli n/Hianny line either ... why do they feel they have the right to take one and not the other? ... we may never know.

Castro has Elian's father on a leash.

Soon enough, Castro is going to pull both Elian and his father back into the lion cage.

You demand that this happen and denounce me for opposing it. If Elian's father, Juan Migeul, approves of his son retuning to that cage, Juan Migeul is no better than castro.
