have you heard about Castro jailing a big bunch of his internal critics recently? I'll bet in your world view, Castro is another heroic dogooder and his victims are probably all CIA agents. Am I on target there? Yup. And Cuba presented the evidence, but the U.S. media chose not to report it. Castro's crackdown fits squarely within U.S. law: <<< The State Department calls these activities "outreach." However, under the United States Code, similar "outreach" by a foreign diplomat in the United States could result in criminal prosecution and a 10-year prison sentence for anyone "who agrees to operate within the United States subject to the direction or control of a foreign government or official (Title 18, section 951 of the United States Code). >>> counterpunch.org Tom
