Capitol Hill Cubans : How Obama Can Be "Creative" on Cuba Policy
Both Soler (through The Ladies in White) and Farinas are past recipients, 2005 and 2010 respectively, of the European Parliament's Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought.
This simple encounter has sent a message of hope and encouragement to all those risking their lives for freedom and democracy in Cuba.
Unfortunately, in Washington, D.C., this important encounter has been overshadowed by speculation regarding some open-ended remarks by President Obama on U.S. policy toward Cuba.
Here's what the President said, verbatim:
"[W]e’ve started to see changes on the island. Now, I think we all understand that, ultimately, freedom in Cuba will come because of extraordinary activists and the incredible courage of folks like we see here today. But the United States can help. And we have to be creative. And we have to be thoughtful. And we have to continue to update our policies. Keep in mind that when Castro came to power, I was just born. So the notion that the same policies that we put in place in 1961 would somehow still be as effective as they are today in the age of the Internet and Google and world travel doesn't make sense.
And I think that partly because we're of the same generation, we recognize that the aims are always going to be the same. And what we have to do is to continually find new mechanisms and new tools to speak out on behalf of the issues that we care so deeply about."
Fair enough. Here are four simple recommendations:
I. Don't hurt the "extraordinary activists" that you recognize will ultimately achieve freedom in Cuba.
Both Soler and Farinas have made it very clear that the U.S. should not lift sanctions towards Cuba. This would provide the Castro regime with a spigot of economic relief at a time when its Venezuelan subsidies are steadily declining and it's desperately seeking a new foreign bailout for its failed policies.
Moreover, it would provide a pipeline of hard currency to the Castro regime's totalitarian apparatus, as political arrests and repression spike. This would further uneven the playing field for these democracy activists.
As Farinas said about the meeting, "it was an opportunity to express to the U.S. President that there have been cosmetic economic changes in Cuba, that the repression has increased and that he must not let himself be carried away by siren songs."
Last month alone, nearly 1,000 activists were arbitrarily arrested. This increase in repression is perhaps the most dramatic "change" taking place in Cuba today. It should not be rewarded.
II. Focus on updating access to technology.
One aspect of U.S. policy that should continue to be updated in this "age of the Internet and Google" is -- simply -- finding ways to help the Cuban people access the Internet and Google. That is what American development worker, Alan Gross, was doing when he was taken hostage by the Castro regime in December 2009.
Technology has been the key to the growth and strength of Cuba's democracy movement in recent years. The impact of President Bush's 2008 regulations authorizing the non-commercial export of cell phones to Cuba, extended by President Obama, have proven to be transcendental.
The Obama Administration should now launch an initiative to help the Cuban people gain free, uncensored access to the Internet, perhaps through satellite WiFi transmissions -- call it e-Marti.
In the "age of the Internet and Google" this is eminently doable.
III. Ensure current U.S. travelers help the Cuban people, not the Castro regime.
In 2011, the Obama Administration authorized a category of non-degree seeking, educational trips to Cuba, known as "people-to-people" travel. These trips are essentially organized "tourism junkets", whereby travelers stay in the Castro regime's five-star hotels, dine at its restaurants and party at its nightclubs.
Let's stress this important point: 100% of current U.S. "people-to-people" travelers stay in the Cuban military's luxury hotels.
That is absurd.
Why doesn't the Obama Administration require current "people-to-people" travelers stay at "casa particulares," which are private homes that rent rooms to foreigners?
Why not require "people-to-people" travelers to solely dine at "paladares," which are small restaurants run out of private homes (excluding the fancy ones run by the Ministry of the Interior)?
It seems this would be a more "creative" way to help the Cuban people, rather than increasingly feeding the coffers of the Cuban military (which was recently caught violating international sanctions by proliferating weapons to North Korea).
After all, the President's stated purpose for these trips was to help "promote the [Cuban people's] independence from the authorities."
These trips do the exact opposite.
IV. Stop granting visas to human rights violators.
In 2011, the Obama Administration launched a broad initiative to prohibit the issuance of visas to human rights violators throughout the world.
Yet, it seems Cuba has been the exception.
Castro regime officials, including its jailers, torturers and other state security officials keep popping up unexpectedly on the streets of Miami.
Imagine how Cuba's "extraordinary activists" feel seeing the same people that harass, beat and imprison them being rewarded with U.S. visas.
It's incredibly disheartening and sends a message to these human rights violators that there are no consequences for their reprehensible actions.
In other words, it doesn't "help" Cuba's democracy activists, as President Obama acknowledged the U.S. should do.

Did U.S. Hedge-Fund Billionaire Violate Cuba Sanctions?
In March 2002 there was a strange blip in Loeb’s biography, when he traveled to Cuba with his friend Alexander von Furstenberg (son of the designer Diane von Furstenberg, a Vanity Fair contributor) for what was supposed to be a long weekend. Things unexpectedly took a dark turn, and according to a lawsuit later filed by Youlia Miteva, a former Third Point analyst who accused Loeb of breach of contract, among other things, “Cuban authorities had refused to allow him to leave.” Asked what had happened in Cuba, Loeb told me earlier this year, for a previous Vanity Fair story, that he had been involved in a car accident, stuck around for a couple more weeks, had a legal hearing, and everything turned out fine.
But, according to Chapman, a desperate and sobbing Loeb had called him from Cuba, where he was confined to his hotel after the accident. “I remember how scared Dan sounded when describing the incident involving his hitting a local Cuban kid with his car,” recalls Chapman. “I truly felt so sorry for him when he told me he had found himself unable to leave the country, curled up in a ball on the floor of his room crying, promising God that he’d do anything if the Almighty got him out of his predicament. It wasn’t as if Dan had done it on purpose, and who really knows what ended up happening to the kid?”
A question:
Under what specific travel license did Loeb spend "a long weekend" in Cuba?
For, as we all know, tourism travel to Cuba is illegal -- and no one is above the law.
Flights From Key West To Cuba Resume After A 51-Year Hiatus
"We feel very emotional about being able to provide this service to the Cuban community with flights from Key West after 50 years and prevent travelers from having to travel to the Miami airport," Isaac Valdes, sales director for Mambi Travel, told EFE.
The service will provide three flights a week to Cuba, on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, and a round-trip ticket will cost $449 to $469, Valdes said.
The twin-engine aircraft will have the capacity for groups of up to 19 people and will take about 30 minutes to fly the route to the Havana international airport.
"We have all the permits in order and hope that the (Florida Keys) community flies with us and is satisfied, avoiding the inconvenience it would pose to go to Miami," said Valdes, who added that he was happy about the possibility of "uniting the Cuban family a little more."
In 2009, the director of the Key West international airport asked the U.S. Treasury Department, which enforces Washington's economic embargo against the Communist island, to permit the reestablishment of direct flights to Cuba, which is just 90 miles away.
Two charter companies, Mambi Travel and Air MarBrisa, which already fly to Havana from Miami, Tampa and New York, will provide the service.
Regular Key West-Havana flights were inaugurated in 1920.
This year, the United States celebrates the centennial of the first flight between Key West and Havana.
On May 17, 1913, Cuban Domingo Rosillo del Toro piloted his monoplane from Key West to Havana, thus winning a $10,000 prize for being the first to cross the Florida Strait by air.
There are more than 2 million Cubans and their relatives in the United States, most of them living in Florida. At present, only Cuban-Americans with relatives on the island and Americans who meet certain requirements, such as traveling for academic and/or religious reasons, may travel to Cuba.

Americans traveling to Cuba in record numbers
HAVANA (Reuters) - Americans are visiting Cuba in record numbers despite strict travel restrictions, joining the hundreds of thousands of Cuban Americans who travel home each year, according to Cuban government figures published on Friday.
Just over 98,000 U.S. citizens visited Cuba in 2012, up from 73,500 in 2011 and twice the number compared with five years ago, according to an online report by the National Statistics Office (www.one.cu).
U.S. citizens are barred from traveling to Cuba without government permission under a U.S. trade embargo imposed half a century ago that can only be lifted by Congress.
The rise in U.S. visitors partly reflects a loosening of travel restrictions by President Barack Obama's administration and allow "people-to-people" contact aimed at speeding political change on the communist-ruled island 90 miles from Florida.
As well as allowing Cuban Americans to travel to Cuba freely, Obama authorized licenses for "purposeful" travel to more than 250 Cuba travel agents and allowed more airports to provide charter service between the two countries.
The program, which began in 2011 and requires annual renewal of permission to bring groups to Cuba, allows for educational and cultural travel. The regulations require detailed itineraries of each traveling group.
Cuba hosted 2.8 million tourists in 2012, with arrivals down 2 percent so far this year.
"Cuba has so much to offer in terms of culture, history and issues of mutual concern - healthcare, education and the environment - and students, professionals, people of faith are curious," said Collin Laverty, head of travel provider Cuba Educational Travel.
In the years following Cuba's 1959 revolution when Fidel Castro took power, the highest known number of U.S. visitors peaked at 70,000 under President Bill Clinton, but dropped to an average of 30,000 in the last term of President George W. Bush.
Travel to Cuba is seen as a key political issue by both embargo supporters and opponents in Washington.
"This is not about promoting democracy and freedom in Cuba. This is nothing more than tourism ... a source of millions of dollars in the hands of the Castro government that they use to oppress the Cuban people," Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida told a congressional hearing soon after Obama instituted the policy.
Theodore Piccone, deputy director of foreign policy at the Washington-based Brookings Institute that advocates engagement, said Obama should do more to open travel to Cuba. He said it was ironic that Cubans, due to reforms on the island, were now free to travel where they pleased while U.S. citizens were not.
"American travel to Cuba will remain a small fraction of its potential as long as President Obama avoids a further liberalization of travel," he said. "If the Cuban government can open travel of its citizens, which it now has, why can't we?"

Company pitches idea for ferry service from Port Manatee to Cuba
Leonard Moecklin, vice president of Havana Ferry Partners LLC, said once legal difficulties posed by the U.S. embargo against Cuba are resolved, his company could operate ferries to the island nation 90 miles south of the United States.
Each Damen Sea Axes ferry boat could carry 150 passengers plus tons of cargo, he said.
"It's time to go to Cuba," he told the Manatee County Port Authority.
Business opportunities would cross many economic sectors, including transportation, construction, tourism, real estate, automotive, food, clothing and medical supplies, he said.
Port Manatee could be a hub for shipping construction materials to Cuba, where the infrastructure of the Communist country needs extensive rebuilding, Moecklin said.
As for the political change needed to accomplish such an enterprise, Moecklin said it's difficult when the two governments are still not speaking with each other.

Ichikawa: "La niña ha vuelto a Cuba con sus abuelos para estudiar su carrera … Luego, que ella decida”
Asturias (LNE)-Melanie Peña ha cambiado el colegio público Dolores Medio, en la calle de la Luna, por una escuela cubana de la región de Holguín. Su madre emigró del país gobernado por Fidel Castro hace trece años “detrás de un futuro mejor”. Ahora busca trabajo “de lo que sea” para salir a flote y criar a su hija de ocho años, pero las cuentas no le salen. Por eso, este año ha tomado una decisión drástica. La niña ha vuelto a Cuba con sus abuelos para no pagar el dinero de los libros de texto ni del comedor. “Si Dios quiere, mi Melanie estudiará su carrera en Cuba y le saldrá gratis. Luego, que ella decida”, explica la madre, Leiviz Peña, mientras lee con calma las ofertas de empleo del periódico en su minúsculo piso de alquiler del casco antiguo.

Retratos de fusilados por el Castrismo - Juan Abreu
"Hablame"
"EN TIEMPOS DIFÍCILES" - Heberto Padilla
A aquel hombre le pidieron su tiempo
para que lo juntara al tiempo de la Historia.
Le pidieron las manos,
porque para una época difícil
nada hay mejor que un par de buenas manos.
Le pidieron los ojos
que alguna vez tuvieron lágrimas
para que contemplara el lado claro
(especialmente el lado claro de la vida)
porque para el horror basta un ojo de asombro.
Le pidieron sus labios
resecos y cuarteados para afirmar,
para erigir, con cada afirmación, un sueño
(el-alto-sueño);
le pidieron las piernas
duras y nudosas
(sus viejas piernas andariegas),
porque en tiempos difíciles
¿algo hay mejor que un par de piernas
para la construcción o la trinchera?
Le pidieron el bosque que lo nutrió de niño,
con su árbol obediente.
Le pidieron el pecho, el corazón, los hombros.
Le dijeron
que eso era estrictamente necesario.
Le explicaron después
que toda esta donación resultaria inútil.
sin entregar la lengua,
porque en tiempos difíciles
nada es tan útil para atajar el odio o la mentira.
Y finalmente le rogaron
que, por favor, echase a andar,
porque en tiempos difíciles
esta es, sin duda, la prueba decisiva.

Carta desde la carcel de Fidel Castro Ruz
“…después de todo, para mí la cárcel es un buen descanso, que sólo tiene de malo el que es obligatorio. Leo mucho y estudio mucho. Parece increíble, las horas pasan como si fuesen minutos y yo, que soy de temperamento intranquilo, me paso el día leyendo, apenas sin moverme para nada. La correspondencia llega normalmente…”
“…En cuanto a fumar, en estos días pasados he estado rico: una caja de tabacos H. Upman del doctor Miró Cardona, dos cajas muy buenas de mi hermano Ramón….”.
“Me voy a cenar: spaghettis con calamares, bombones italianos de postre, café acabadito de colar y después un H. Upman #4. ¿No me envidias?”.
“…Me cuidan, me cuidan un poquito entre todos. No le hacen caso a uno, siempre estoy peleando para que no me manden nada. Cuando cojo el sol por la mañana en shorts y siento el aire de mar, me parece que estoy en una playa… ¡Me van a hacer creer que estoy de vacaciones! ¿Qué diría Carlos Marx de semejantes revolucionarios?”.
