And you have demonstrated your deep concern for others with your
sensitivity, empathy, and class for months. I'm attaching the appropriate
weight to your advice.

Dual Passports don't count. AmCit on unauthorized trip == cooked
goose.


What you do is join a recognized NGO as a volunteer, and arrange
to be sent to Cuba for a legit reason.

Then secure an authorization from Treasury based on the NGO
status.

Paperwork ahead of time beats legal fees afterwards.

You can also go as part of a conference/research group. Loads
of people do it every year. The plane I was on (from Jamaica)
was full of American doctors. Judging by the number of times
I saw some of them wandering around Havana during the day, I
expect the 'conference' didn't take up too much of their time.

It's easy to go to Cuba.

1) Don't be a US citizen
2) Go to Cuba

How easy is that?

Default The Facts About Going To Cuba

"Don't be a US citizen"

That is the most INTELLIGENT statement I have read on this newsgroup.
I am not an American, and I enjoy my freedom to travel to Cuba as often as I
like.

If you are an American, please stay out of Cuba.
There is nothing there for you.
No casinos, no KFC, no Budweiser.

The last thing Cuba needs, is American corruption !

Default The Facts About Going To Cuba

Who the hell would want to be an American?
I certainly do not.

Americans have the highest per capita rate of obesity in the entire world.
You cannot blame the fast food industry for this epidemic.
It's your own god damn lazy fault.
"I'd better inhale this double cheese bacon burger before someone else
does," mentality !
Americans are greedy, selfish, bastards with no self control.

Default The Facts About Going To Cuba

good point.....pro truth with a heavy touch of anti amercian foreign
policy.....

i find it ironic that you have these idiots waving their flags around
in a psuedo attempt to support the troops....while the true patriots
are demanding their immediate return......

and if i see one more of the stupid magnetic flags on cars.....cmon
people....flags on poles not cars or clothes.....
