Photos of Human Rights violations in Cuba

Last week Dr. Darsi Ferrer and his wife were arrested; their alleged crime? Inviting a group of friends for a walk on Havana’s Malecón. The Real Cuba has the photos showing Dr. Ferrer’s injuries and the damage done to his home by Cuban state thugs while they were detained.

    There should be a blogburst about this.

    Sadly, the Mainstream Media won't give one crap about this.

    They'll just say his cat scratched him.

    Man, if this same situation had involved apartheid-era South Africa, Ferrer would be a major celebrity by now, worldwide, with the likes of Charlize Theron publicly crying their eyes out over him and Will Smith all set to play him in a movie. Same goes for Dr. Biscet. Sometimes, no matter how jaded one is, the degree of hypocrisy involving the Cuba situation is truly amazing.

  • You are all right, and I was just thinking about the MSM frenzy over stories of the Israeli's bulldozing Palestinian terrorist homes; yet here we have a situation where citizens are enslaved and forced to live in unsafe structures, made worse by acts such as Darsi and his family just experienced, and you hear nothing! I know all the given reasons for this staggering exclusion, but in my heart, the only way I can make sense of it is to accept that there is an evil force at work here. I know I'm obsessed with this, and I sound like a stuck record, but fidel is truly a menace to mankind. I see his fingerprints on just about every bad thing that has happened vis-à-vis politics and culture that has happened in this world this past half-century. I also think that the US is not going to right itself until it atones for the wrongdoing it has done to the Cuban people.
