The Castro brothers should free the people of Cuba from the longest lasting dictatorship in the hemisphere. Freedom for Oscar Elias Biscet, an afro-cuban doctor sentence to 30 years, only for speaking out against the communist regime and the injustices of it.

For those of you who watch this video and don't quite understand, the situation of the Cuban 5 exposes the hypocracy of the U.S.'s"war on terror"

Yes they were Cuban operatives spying on right wing Cuban organizations. But thats all. Those organizations are private with loose ties to the U.S. governmen who were and still commit acts of terror (as the Washington defines it) inside the soverign island nation. The U.S. doesn't care about terror, they just want to intervene where they don't belong.
