You Do the Prisoner Math

Thursday, August 12, 2010
According to independent journalists from Cuba's Hablemos Press (CIHPRESS), the Castro regime arrested at least 88 dissidents during this past month of July alone.

That brings the total number of dissident arrests in 2010 -- thus far -- to 758.

That's right 758.

While most of these arrests were short-term, it highlights how quickly the Castro regime can refill its political prisons, and it puts the "announced" release (during the same month of July) of 52 political prisoners (of which 32 remain in prison and 20 were forcibly exiled) in greater perspective.
