What Mr. Lobbyist snipped without indicating for obvious reasons:

Not necessarily. They have to live among the Cuban people after all.
To come out in favour of sanctions that even Amensty International
has
conceded are "used to harm to the most vulnerable members of society"
would be political if not actual suicide.

Please explain why you think Cubans should be grateful for sanctions
that even Amnesty International has conceded are "used to harm the
most vulnerable members of society," sanctions that, under the UN
Genocide Convention, can even be seen as a form of genocide. You are
such a hypocrite! The embargo is universally hated in Cuba. Now, even
the most right-wing of your di$$ident pals has called for it to be
loosened (original posting).

See featured article, "Is the US embargo a form of genocide?" at my
website.

What Mr. Lobbyist snipped for obvious reasons:

"The vast majority seem to sup****t the government and the Revolution.
We saw this again in the national elections earlier this year. Because
of Fidel's retirement, these elections were widely covered in the
international media. And there was not a hint from any quarter -- not
even from Miami -- that this was anything but a clean vote."

A rap****teur whose re****t was rejected and his mandate terminated by
the UN body that commissioned the re****t. Get real! But thanks for
confirming that you can find no indication whatsoever in the
international media that the recent vote was anything but a clean one.
Not even the fanatically anti-Cuban Miami media seems to be backing
you on this one, Mr. Lobbyist. Thanks gotta hurt!
