Europe hopeful of change in Cuba bringing engagement


The last time Louis Michel, the European Union's commissioner for development and humanitarian aid, was in Havana he rode a Harley Davidson down a balmy Malecon, the city's picturesque seaside drive.That was in 2001 when he was Belgium's foreign minister. Mr Michel was back over the Easter weekend looking to mend the EU's tattered ties with the Communist run island two years after President Fidel Castro locked up 75 pro-democracy activists. This time a motorcycle ride did not seem appropriate...click title for story.

The motorcycle ride was not appropriate in 2001 either nor is all the hollywood chumps going to smoke cigars with Castro.As for the "change in Cuba",get real,Castro is a communist murderer,the people are starving and medical conditions are outright discusting.Basic human rights do not exist and law is as dictated by a group of individuals who will just as quickly place you before a firing squad or lock you up for years in horrid conditions.Forget a phone call or a day in court...Hopefully our "Castro Deathwatch" here In The Loop will come to an end sooner than later.It's a shame how warped a view people have of Cuba and flock by the millions to put Cash in Castros pocket while the people starve.

The big secret. Fidel has hidden it well for so many years. He says they have it all but in reality the "Cuban people" have nothing. The conditions they live in are horrible. It is so sad to be so close just 90 miles away but yet so far. I really wish that more people would get involved and remove him. It is a very sad case.
