People to People Contacts: Drunken passenger edition

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 [...]

Link in case video does not [...]

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.
