Europe's Shining Light

The Czech Republic has long been the only country in Europe to support tough sanctions against the Cuban government. For that they should be strongly and heartily commended. It's also unfortunate that they're the only country in Europe that has a deep understanding of the real situation in Cuba, and that knows where to apply the pressure. Where most countries blame the United States for imposing an unfair "embargo" on Cuba, the Czechs know who is really at fault.

fidel castro called the Czechs "toadies" and "U.S. lackeys", as well as puppets of the feared Miami Mafia!

As Jim Mandich would say....AW-RIGHT! They're in fine company.

I would bet that if the rest of Europe followed the Czech Republic's lead and imposed tougher sanctions on Cuba, the Cuba transition plan released recently would already be in place.
