Farrakhan makes third visit to Cuba

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.

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

Good one!

This makes me think of China and all of those students visiting the US whose primary allegiance is to the Chinese government and who are expected to act as 'agents'.

What's a Muslim leader doing hobnobbing with an atheistic communist dictator?
