Elena Freyre destacada participante en la reunion amañada de La Habana/ Espinaxiones

Esta es una de las participantes de la reunion que comienza mañana. Imagino se ganó la invitacion por su posicion en el caso de Elian. Habria que averiguar e imagino se puso de parte del gobierno cubano.
Maria Elvira le pregunto como ella estaba dispuesta a participar de una reunion de la cual no se conoce la agenda y confesó que cada vez se conoce mas, que ya se sabe que sera en el Hotel Nacional.
Son una plaga y como son eficientes en reclutar agentes, traidores, complices y tontos utiles que muchas veces no lo son tanto.
Defendio que los cubanos si pueden entrar a los hoteles, que entrar al lobby del hotel.
Maria Elvira tenia poco tiempo y la invito para otro encuentro al regresar de Cuba.
Como habiamos conversado en otras ocasiones, al visitar la isla y aun sin visitarla se desatan todos los mecanismos de reclutamiento.
Asistio a la visita del Papa en el 98 y despues ha ido 3 veces, quien sabe a que tipo de eventos o entrenamientos. Ahora se gradua con la nueva tarea. Ya puso lo bueno que sera el proximo año cuando al fin se celebrara La Nacion y la Emigracion que creo fue suspendida hace un tiempo por falta de miserables.
A continuacion reproducimos las declaraciones de la Sra. Freyre:
Elena Freyre Administration, Cuban American Defense League http://www.defensahumanidad.cu/imprimir.php?item=5022 Not that Miami's Cuban-American community has an overwhelming number of registered Democrats to woo in the first place. The exiles have traditionally voted Republican ever since they abandoned President John F. Kennedy because of his botched direction of the Bay of Pigs invasion in 1961. But Miami Democrats like Elena Freyre, a Cuban-American art gallery owner in Little Havana, say they've been trying to tell Democratic candidates to stop parroting the hard-line position. "Obama's people were the first who ever said to me on the phone, ?Wait, let me get a pen and write that down,'" says Freyre. "He's the first to have the cojones to say Bush's policy is wrong, and I think it's going to wake up a lot of moderate Cuban-American voters." http://righttotraveltocuba.org/news/will-obama-stance-on-cuba-hurt http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/elian/interviews/freyre.html

She is executive director of the Cuban Committee for Democracy, founded in 1993 by moderate Cuban-Americans. Born in Cuba, she came to the United States in 1960 when she was 12 years old. Freyre has returned to Cuba for the first time in 1998 and since then has made three more trips.
What was the Elián saga about? It was never about a child. It was always about Castro versus the exile community. ... From the beginning, this child was politicized on this side of the Florida Straits, especially after the poster that the Cuban-American National Foundation were planning to take to the World Trade Organization meeting in Seattle if Fidel attended. The moment that happened, it was inevitable that the Cuban government was also going to politicize it. How did it become so huge?
It had all the elements of some sort of Greek mythology. Dolphins were taking care of this child. Our Lady of Charity had guided him in. He was at sea for three days and yet he had almost no exposure. It grew to these mythical proportions where people got absolutely drawn into it. Then, of course, it was tailor-made for the media. This child was not some ugly black child from Haiti. This child was an adorable-looking little boy--very photogenic, very, very, very precious to the camera. At that point, all bets were off. What does the Miami community want?
Very few people would admit it, but they want the Marines. They want the US to send its Marines to Cuba, clean up Cuba, and then give it back to them. Do you really think so?
Oh, absolutely, absolutely. There is a group of people in Miami that are never going to get what they want, which is to rule Cuba in the future, unless it's through a US intervention. It wouldn't happen any other way. To them, whether it happens because the US gets fed up and decides to go in there like they did in Panama--which is of course not the same situation--or whether it happens because they continue to tighten the embargo to the point where the people of Cuba can't handle it anymore and they take to the streets and such a chaotic situation ensues that the US government thinks they have to intervene. . . . Whether it happens that way or the other way, they know that that's the only way they're going to have positions of power in a future of Cuba. It would be bloody for Cubans, though, wouldn't it?
They don't care about the Cuban people. If you remember, when the Berlin Wall fell and Cuba lost all the subsidies it had from the Soviet Union and other Eastern bloc countries, there was real hunger on the island. I didn't hear any calls for a huge amount of humanitarian aid. On the contrary, two things happened: one, the embargo was tightened to see if the Cuban people would suffer still more; and two, people here were celebrating. They were putting champagne bottles in their refrigerators. It's a good thing they didn't open them.
