“FILTHY COMMUNIST MURDERERS!!!” Cuban “diplomats” in New York destroy Zapata memorial–and get an earful
But....but when done in front of the South African embassy back in the 80's, such demonstrators were hailed as "selfless Human-Rights activists"???
1.) Serious intransigence in New York.
2.) Serious intransigence in New York.

I was listening to a report on the John Bachelor show in NYC. According to that show
the jailers with held water and subjected this prisoner to air conditioning in an effort to aggravate a respiratory condition.
If this information is true than this may literally be murder.
Beakerkin, it is true, and it is murder.
The Miami based Directorio Democrático Cubano states:
[After years in prison] In October, 2009, Zapata Tamayo was brutally beaten by military personnel at Holguin provincial prison, causing an internal hematoma in his head so severe that Zapata Tamayo had to undergo surgery. He began his hunger strike on December 3, 2009, at Kilo 8 prison in Camagüey, classified in Cuba as employing a “maximum severity” prison regime. For 18 days, Major Filiberto Hernández Luis, the prison’s director, denied Zapata Tamayo drinking water, the only thing he was ingesting during the strike. The effect of this act of torture was to induce kidney failure. In mid-January, he was transferred to Amalia Simoni Hospital in the city of Camagüey, where he was left to languish nearly completely nude under intense air conditioning, causing him to contract pneumonia.

Wow. I want to point to the irony of a place where luxury is rare using air conditioning to kill a dissident.
John Bachelor did 30 minutes on this story yesterday in the first hour.
