While the butchers in La Habana continue their bloody work, they also find there is no shortage of useful idiots willing to prop up their image:

They call it "car guy" diplomacy, and never mind reality, because:

A church group from Portland is denied entry by Cuban authorities, detained, and sent back to Mexico and whom do they blame?  Not the Stalinist regime responsible, but the unfortunate American held in a Cuban prison accused of trying to “destabilize” said regime.   How rude!  After all, this church group loves Cuba; they’ve never had [...]

Millions of tourists from democratic countries, including the U.S. have visited Cuba, but somehow, contrary to the kool-aid crowd school of thought, the Cuban people still have NO HUMAN RIGHTS. To those bozos who argue for the lifting of the embargo what do you have to say about this? How do you think more Americans [...]

Here's how Americans traveling to Cuba will help the "natives:"

There are millions of exiled Cubans who can answer that question.

More home video of a lovely holiday in Cuba. Notice how they are talking to dissidents about their important work and how they discuss the merits of representative democracy with people on the streets.

I don't know about you guys but watching that video infuriates me. These people are frolicking in a country that [...]

Lift the travel ban and Cuba will be democratized by American versions of "Sava and his mummy, daddy, granny and granda."

Don't miss the pirate show.

Self-styled Cuba "experts" like Gwynne Dyer like to think that tourist dollars, particularly those from the U.S., are the key to liberating Cubans from their communist oppressors. Well here's the example from the emerald isle that the "ugly Americans" have to live up to:
More than 40 passengers ran riot on a Thomas Cook flight [...]

Haven't done one of these in a while. In the following video a Canadian tourist try his best to explain representative democracy and human rights to a Cuban hotel worker WITH HIS FISTS.
If the American tourism ban on Cuba is lifted it'll only be a matter of time before similar educational activities begin rub [...]

This was a Cuban resort before Ike. As you can see the hordes of foreign invaders are teaching ordinary Cubans about capitalism and democracy. One can only hope that the regime has its slave laborers cleaning up the mess the hurricanes left behind so that the lessons can continue.

We've all heard the stories about "ugly Americans" visiting foreign lands, well in this edition of People-to-People contacts we see the ugly English (literally) as they take a tour of the Potemkin village that is castro's Cuba. Don't miss the ride in the vintage car and the coco taxi as well as the obligatory [...]

Here's more video of omnipotent tourists doing their best to bring the castro regime down through people to people contacts. Mojitos are the Molotov Cocktails of the 21st century don't ya know?

Here's a nice couple that finally made it outside of their all-inclusive resort bubble to mingle with the "real Cubans" for a little [...]

The latest installment of vacation videos from Cuba. As you can see, it will be very soon now that Dr. Biscet and the other Cuban prisoners of conscience will be free thanks to our friends from the great white north spending their loonies in the worker's paradise.

Cuba where the people are imprisoned and the [...]

Here's some more footage of that democracy-building tourism in Cuba, this time from our friends in Canada. The strategy here is to bring human rights to the imprisoned island through talent shows at tourist resorts. I'm quite sure raul castro is nervous about the destabilizing force that fat drunken Cannucks pose.

Here's an example of how our friends in Spain are helping to bring about the end of the castro regime through people to people contacts:

Soon, we Americans may be able to join in the fun hard work.
