if you value a free press, free elections, free speech and the right to form and join free trade unions and political parties.

All these things aren't allowed by Cuba's communist regime.

The tiny, naive clique of suburban middle class westerners who think that Castro's vile regime is something to be admired would be appalled if the their own governments imposed one tenth of the restrictions on basic freedoms that Casto imposes on his fellow countrypeople.
