Thank you for these excellent examples of Fidel Castro's communist propaganda photos. Let's compare Castro's special "treatment" of Elian Gonzalez in these staged propaganda photos, and the treatment of the typical Cuban child, as exposed on TheRealCuba.com:

But Cuban children have to make their own toys and use the streets as playgrounds, because there are no real playgrounds for them to play.

I am sure that hte Cubans took a LOT better care for him than JANET RENO/BILL CLINTON STORM TROOPER GESTAPO!

Elian probably cannot yet sleep without the nightmares of american justice - and CONDONED BY SCOTUS!

"Under Clinton, the US government respected Ramadan and wouldn't launch any attacks on Iraq during their holy month... but did that on Easter weekend. Go figure."
Very good point. This reminds me of how Bill Clinton would make sure to be seen at church and holding a bible, while he was doing it with Monica Lewinsky in the Oval Office of the White House.

It appears that Bill Clinton, like Hillary Clinton, do not really support Judeo-Christian values, and actually have anti-western sentiments commonly found among the left wing of the Democrat party.

But notice the grip Castro has on Elian. The kid is not brainwashed, but he knows that if he wants to stay alive, he has to do what he is told.

It is difficult to escape from an island controlled by a ruthless military dictatorship, especially when you already tried once, your mother drowned and many others with you drowned, you barely survived, and then you were sent back by the closest and most free country on the planet! (Due to a Democrat in the White House - I am confident that Elian Gonzalez would be a proud and free American today if Presidents Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush were in the White House at the time.)

He'll probably say the same thing. Come on! He was what, 5 when he was shipped back?

It is very rare for someone to come out of that intense of an indoctrination and still be able to see things from a different perspective.

"They were telling me bad things about [my father]," Elian is quoted by CBS as saying. "They were also telling me to tell [my father] that I did not want to go back to Cuba and I always told them I wanted to."

I became a FReeper (another screenname) because of Elian. This boy was used a token by Blowjob Clinton and Butch Reno.

Note that the words [my father] in the above quote were inserted by the author, not by the boy. I have heard Elian refer to Castro as his father and I believe that's who he was referring to. He has been brainwashed, as I kinew he would be when Clinton sold him and Freedom out.

Clinton's legacy has many victims scattered through it, and Elian is one of them.

Is Elian's left arm strapped to the chair or is that some sort of shadow?

Good question -- I never noticed that before. It does make one wonder. I also just noticed, by looking at this left hand more closely, is that Elian is gripping the arm of the chair with his right hand, kind of what you do in the dentist's office, before he starts drilling your tooth without anesthetesia.

Elian's "protector" Donato "the fisherman" is a grade A scam artist who was riding around town in new Lexus just 6 months after Elian was taken out of the closet. Not to mention got front and center for every event and club in south beach.

Total cluster f-ck...the entire scene.

But one has to wonder just how much really will change after Castro dies.

Complete and total lie, MFH.

I'd expect more from you than malicious and untrue information.

And yes. I was right there during the time you mentioned. Donato was driving a 2001 Mitsubishi Galant. Cream colored.

I challenge you as a FRiend to do your research and then come back and apologize.
