Castro shows himself to be the dictator he is and nary a peep from the left. Apparently the Hollywood gliteratti and assorted left wing anti-war crowd seriously believe that George Bush is a greater threat to free speech than Fidel Castro.

...Portuguese Nobel prize winning writer Jose Saramago declared that his friendship with Castro had ended because the right to dissent had been suppressed in Cuba.

Mr. Saramago is shocked--shocked!--to find that dissent is suppressed in Cuba.

What I want to know is what part did CNN play in this? I read a story here on FR about the new office of CNN in Cuba being invited to a meeting of dissidents.

Suddenly, 75 of the dissidents are rounded up and punished. How many of that 75 were at the meeting with CNN? This is beginning to look like CNN is doing in Cuba exactly what they did in Iraq.
