The group wants to see an end to what it describes as "the immoral U.S. economic blockade" that began in the early 1960s.

Group leader Lucius Walker told Aljazeera.net yesterday that this year's mission comes at a crucial time for some of the "most disadvantaged people in the world."

All I can think of is that if Al Jazeera is interested in Cuba and Castro, its because Castro is involved with the jihadists. And don't these pastors realize that Castro has worked as hard as anyone in the world to destroy Christianity.

My friend, you are under the delusion that these pastors are Christians.

[mvpel]

Cuba sees around 2 million tourists every single year. The Embargo is not the root of their problems, communism is.

[DoughtyOne]

You don't really think these pastors are Christian at the core do you? Think about it. Marxists and socialists have no use for regligion. Religion is merely a competing idiology to those idiologies. Thus these 'pastors' are working to bring about a society that has no use for religion, unless that religion is a marxist socialist blend, sans Christ or the Holy Trinity.

[BipolarBob]

We should call the whole bunch treasonous and "blockade" this group out. A year in that third world p-hole without American rights and quality of life and they would beg to come back.

He's part of the national council of churches, he uses the term "pastor" very loosely!

A group of U.S. pastors has arrived in Cuba, some wearing T-shirts reading: "Regime change in U.S., not in Cuba."

It's only 90 miles off our coast, why don't they just move there and live in peace and contentment?

[OPS4]

Communists in pastors clothes, much like wolves in sheep clothing. They are the new Greeley's.

Ops4 God Bless America!

[ATOMIC_PUNK]

The group brought tons of aid to help Cuba deal with the severe effects of a drought, which has made life even more miserable than it would normally be under Communism.

All in the attampt to make YOU the reader think that life under communism is a good thing ~!

Group leader Lucius Walker told Aljazeera.net

Hello FBI Secret Service are you listening ?

"Away from me, for I never knew you".

[Tamzee]

Got it... "Pastors".... and Jim Jones was a "Reverend".

[RoseofTexas]

This whole world has gone F'kin crazy!!! Ughhhhhh!

[Kuksool]

A religious organization advocating the election defeat of a sitting President? That could be a violation of IRS regulations regarding tax exempt non-profit groups. ACLU, Americans United For the Seperation of Church & State, Interfaith Alliance: Where's your outrage?

The group wants to see an end to what it describes as "the immoral U.S. economic blockade" that began in the early 1960s.

The idiots don't know (or admit to) the difference between an embargo and a blockade. We do not turn back any European ships heading towards Cuba. The only time we had a blockade on Cuba was during the missile crisis.

By the way, I want the embargo to end. Only I want it ended after Castro is hanged from a lamp post.

Even more miserable? How can it be? : )

These political parsons are doing a little of the usual campaigning from the pulpit. Both parties do it. It's the usual "We're the patriotic Christians and they're the anti-American devil-worshippers" or some tired rant.

Being a Calvinist, I don't believe they can harm the cause of Christ. But such politicking by clergy is always somewhat dubious. As usual, it's even more dubious when the other side does it.

[SunkenCiv]

Since 1992, it has delivered 2,350 tons of aid to Cuba without requesting a U.S. government license, Cuban officials said.

Sounds to me like some alleged pastors and the financial supporters of the organization should have been in jail for a while. Maybe in GTMO.

Pious morons are really just suicidal idiots who would turn the other cheek for terrorists to smite them once again.

I, on the other hand, will take my Beretta, and smite them first and often.
