Apologists of the Cuban dictatorship are still heralding this banishment, which in itself was a violation of international law.
Today, the Cuban Commission for Human Rights has released a list of 90 long-term political prisoners being currently held by the Castro regime.
Note that this doesn't include the nearly 7,000 democracy activists that were arrested for shorter-periods throughout 2012.
And these are only the ones that have been thoroughly documented.
Thus, the number of political prisoners in Cuba has actually increased -- despite the banishment -- since 2011.
More "reform" you can't believe in.
