Children are taken away from their parents in Communist Cuba so the children can be brainwashed by the state. You act as if Elian was returned to his father, but that is not the case, because children do not live with their fathers in Communist Cuba. You don't seem to want to face that fact. Elian was not returned to his father. He was returned to Communist Cuba to live in a communist training camp as a ward of the state. If Elian's father had come to live in the US then he would have rights. In Cuba, he has no rights. Parents have no rights over their children in Cuba and that is why no child should ever be returned to Cuba to live in Communist slavery. Those who say otherwise are as stupid and evil as someone who would return a child to communist East Germany whose parent was gunned down trying to cross the Berlin Wall.

Please explain where the kid lived and where the father lived so we can document the accuracy of your statement. I saw an article awhile back that the kid was in some Cuban school. It was not a dorm or prison camp. Where was he living then and where was the father?

The father was in Cuba, all the more reason the kid wasn't in the US. How could the father see the kid if he wasn't in his homeland?
