If you would like to know why Cuban Americans often come across as too strident, too passionate and sometimes crazed, it is because of articles like this:
Cuba is showing "unprecedented positive engagement" with the United Nations in the field of human rights, the UN's High Commissioner for Human Rights Louise Arbour said Friday.
in contrast to the reality of these headlines for the past 3 days smuggled out by independent journalists in Cuba:
Opposition Members in Holguin Beaten
Opposition Youth Threatened with Jail
Human Rights Activists Arrested and Processed for Dangerousness
President of FLAMUR [The Association of Rural Women] Arrested and Threatened
Political Police Organize an Act of Repudiation
Opposition Members House Pelted with Eggs
Independent Librarian Intimidated
I only wish that someday Ms Arbour live in a country making just as much "progress" as she ascribes to Cuba.
