@KNEECAPCEOL Fair play to you for brining supplies to Cuba and opposing the embargo. When you're there - might I suggest you call for the restoration of free speech, free assembly and a free press followed by real multi-party elections. Cubans haven't been allowed to elect their own

@victorflood @KNEECAPCEOL Yes. I have been to Saudi and to Cuba. Have never called for a travel ban on any country. You use the opportunity to raise issues. The boys have an opportunity to call for human rights and free elections when they are. That's all I am saying. Maybe they will
