"If I were JM, I'd be heading for the US's back door."
He's given his word to wait for the court ... although that may have been specifically to wait for the word of the three judges, i don't know.

Yes, i think 'they're just looking for Elian's stay in the US to be extended' ... standard legal ploy - when you're losing, drag it out ... it's not like the CANF types have any shortage of funds for the legal budget, lol.

Castro is really missing an opportunity here, imho - As it stands now, he begins to lose the moment Eli n is released from the US ... if he came out with a strong clear statement that Juan Miguel is free to go where he pleases with his family, he could retain the majority of his brownie points gained here ... although that would set a precedent, wouldn't it ... well, it's about time for some of those, imho.

The Official Site of the Miami Relatives....
Make a Donation, Join a Task Force, or just e-mail in the form letter to the Clintons asking them to not send Elian back to Cuba.
The site is pretty much what you'd expect, complete with a one-sided account of the story, including the magic dolphins. Over the inevitable pictures of the raid is the caption:
"Look what your government has done to Elian Gonzales."

YOUR government.
Which government would that be?
Not theirs, I guess.
