Le Petit Richelieu Strikes Again

Monday, November 1, 2010
Cuba's Cardinal Jaime Ortega has just issued another press release.

Is it on the 13 political prisoners (of the 52 negotiated for release last July) that refuse to be forcibly banished abroad and, therefore, remain in prison?

Non!

Is it on this weekend's arrest of Reina Luisa Tamayo, the mother of deceased political prisoner, Orlando Zapata Tamayo, along with 39 other dissidents (many of whom remain unaccounted for)?

Non!

Since current events (above) have been reflective of the Castro regime's relentless repression (despite the Church's best public relations efforts), the Cardinal immediately announced three other political prisoners who have accepted banishment to Spain.

Undoubtedly, we wish all three well.

Touché mon Cardenal - your diversionary tactics are remarkable.
