Today is the 46th birthday of Dr. Biscet. I will not rehash the facts. You can read his story at Uncommon Sense, which does it much better than I could.
Rather, I'd like to pay tribute to a man of indomitable spirit and a true patriot. Cast in Castro's gulag and alarmed at the drift toward accepting the stabilization rather than the liberation of Cuba, he has the force of will to smuggle out a letter asking us all to accept nothing less than freedom for his beloved country:
Finally, to the leaders of the democratic states of the world, to the American people, and in particular to the President of the United States, George W. Bush, we ask only one simple commitment: do not support or promote any solution or accord regarding the future of the Cuban nation that you would not consider acceptable for your own country.
May God illuminate us in our path for the liberty of Cuba.
Who am I to differ from him? I originally found it through a link from Uncommon Sense, but you can read it in its entirety here.
