Farrakhan makes third visit to Cuba
UPI ^ | 3/21/6

Posted on 03/21/2006 3:02:35 PM PST by Crackingham

The leader of the Chicago-based Nation of Islam has made this third visit to Cuba, and praised the nation's medical training program. Minister Louis Farrakhan began the visit Monday by meeting young U.S. citizens from low income families studying to become physicians in the island, the Cuban government said.

"I am impressed with what I have seen and heard," he said. "Gold for the permanent success of the school and the Cuban revolution, peace and love."

Farrakhan recalled that Cuba offered medical aid to the United States when Hurricane Katrina hit the southeastern part of the country, but the White House did not accept the island's offer.

"We are here to learn how Cuba offers its medical services to other nations," said Farrakhan.

How in the hell does Farrakhan go to Cuba?

He's not there on a humanitarian mission and he's certainly not a journalist.

I'd hate to think that someone he got permission from the State Department to make the trip.

Unless I'm mistaken,it's illegal for US citizens to travel to Cuba.Sounds like this scumbag should face sanctions.I wonder if his citizenship can be revoked.

Why doesn't he move there?

He seems to like it.

I wouldn't miss hearing or reading about his hate ideology.

Does he really have to go there to learn this, is this rocket science?

Is it a pretext?

Maybe he can ask to stay, permanently?

No,I think that's highly unlikely.It's much more likely that that scumbag feels a need to obey the "will" of "allah" and nobody and nothing else.

Castro's probably even getting sick of that ass-kisser by now.

"How in the hell does Farrakhan go to Cuba?"

He got 19 special, golden dispensations from Elijah Mohammed, beamed to him from the Mothership, in orbit around the planet Platoon.

Easy. Ask Venezuela, with every poorly trained "doctor" you get a free bonus Cuban intelligence agent. ;)

This is a great example of why our Cuban policy smacks of Soviet era restrictions...This anti-American fool can come and go to Cuba at will but freedom-loving Americans who would like to go to Cuba to distribute Bibles or spread the cause of democracy among its people are prohibited from visiting there and heavily fined if they do go. There is a world of difference in the "conservatism" of the Republicans today and the exercise of constitutional rights. When you can't travel at will you no longer live in a free country. Think about it.

Given the immense superiority of the Cuban education system and Cuba's vast and boundless wealth, I'm sure they have the very best and most well trained doctors on the Earth. I'm absolutely sure. Positively sure. No doubt in my mind. Yes sir.

Louis Farakahn lifted the intelligence level of both countries when he left the U. S. and went to Cuba.
