<< They could not accept that Juan Miguel did NOT want to stay in the US ... >>

Hmmm!? You don't think that Juan's decisions might be influenced by Castro's goons holding guns on Juan's family back in Cuba? Of course not. Why, silly me! Castro's brutal treatment of anyone who disagrees with him, has nothing to do with Juan Miquel's actions and total devotion to Castro.

<< Cubans on either side of the strait seem to have a great deal of pride, love of country, and an authoritarian streak. >>

Does that include the tens of thousands who have died trying to flee Cuba, or the many who have been shot by Castro's infamous firing squads, without a fair or public trial?
