Human Rights Activists arrested in Santiago, Cuba for distributing pamphlets with UN Declaration of Human Rights

Human Rights Activists arrested in Santiago, Cuba for distributing
pamphlets with UN Declaration of Human Rights

On Hablalo Sin Miedo, former political prisoner and independent
journalist Jose Daniel Ferrer Garcia reports from Cuba that several
human rights activists in Santiago de Cuba were attacked and arrested by
agents of the Castro political police for distributing pamphlets printed
with the UN Declaration of Human Rights. In spite of all the magnanimous
"reforms" of dictator Raul Castro, it is still a crime in Cuba for its
citizens to speak or express support for universal human rights.

Unfortunately, this news will receive nary a mention by the
international media, and you certainly will not hear one "Cuba Expert"
even acknowledge that this incident, or any incident like this, ever
takes place on the island. The media has subordinated itself to the
Castro dictatorship, and the expertise of the "Cuba Experts" is strictly
limited to the promotion, advocacy, and defense of the criminal and
murderous Castro dictatorship.
