Handshake Sealed with the Blood of Others!

“New Cuban President Raul Castro (L) and Vatican’s Secretary of State Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone, shake hands at the Revolution Palace in Havana. Bertone expressed concern about prisoners in Cuba, amid signs restrictions on the press may be easing”, reads the Yahoo footnote from this photo. Raul Castro, a fervent Marxist, was one of the leaders who have persecuted the Catholic Church as well as all religions in Castro’s Cuba. People were persecuted and jailed for being religious, others like my uncle Raul, were fired from their jobs and died in total ostracism because of their faith. Today this picture with the vicious marxist, Raul and the Vatican’s Secretary of State Tarnisio, brings to mind the silence of the Catholic Church while the Fascists were murdering millions of Jews, Gypsies, and Catholics. The footnote ends with a nice touch on the ‘easing” on the free press. They must be refering to the Generacion Y blog. A Cuban woman who infiltrates Tourist areas, hotels, restaurants, etc, dressed up as a German tourist or God knows what else, and from the hotels for tourists, some of the few places in Cuba where you can get internet access, she files her posts explaining how she lives in Cuba. Wao! I forgot to mention that not only she fools the Cuban Political Police when she dresses as a foreign tourist, but she also carries a lab top, which she conveniently hides from one of the most sophisticated intelligence apparatus in the world. Go explain that to the Cubans who every day have to stand on lines for hours, and most have never seen a computer other than in pictures! Nothing is changing in Cuba unless, like it has been for centuries, the Catholic Church knows something that we don’t.
