Cuba Political Prisoner tortured because he used phone! A Call to Human Rights Watch!

These are the new changes taking place in Raul Castro’s Cuba. A Cuban Political Prisoner, José Daniel Ferrer was beat up and tortured for using a phone during the time allowed to make a phone call from prison. When the democratic candidate we support, Senator Barack Obama, talks about sitting down with Raul Castro, we ask him to please listen to this recording and have it completely translated, and consider who is he sitting down with, and if this kind of human rights violations will be included in a dialogue with the dictatorship’s thugs and torturers who will seat with him to try to lie and cheat the United States as they have done with most of the world with their criminal propaganda machine. Gonzalez Leyva, the man who’s on the other line of the phone with Jose Daniel is a blind democratic activist who has been for years the object of beatings, arbitrary detentions and torture for trying to exercise his right of free expression. This men are repeated offenders in today’s Cuba: they dare to speak against a totalitarian regime. They put their lives on the line for democracy. From here, a base of support to Senator Obama, also a call to address this vital issue, a call to speak from his rightful earned podium of influence to millions about the abuse and the human rights violations the Cuban people suffer on a daily basis for the past 50 years. José Daniel Ferrer, our prayers and support are with you. Down with the Castro Regime! Down with Communism!
