Things are getting rough with Castro and he is showing lately signs of panic. This confrontation with the EU is kinda spastic as a reaction, which only escalates tension over a previous action of the regime, the persecution of the "dissidents"-"foreign agents". That was also a sign of weakness, against the escalating pressure of the USA. It kind of reminds me of Stalin's paranoia, that saw an imperialist agent behind every dissident and eventually every strong party executive. This is a very different case of course.
Cuba should stop seeing itself as the last bastion of Socialism which should be defended even at the expense of the truth and the freedom of it's people. It should concentrate in it's huge problems that keep it away of a fair socialist society and lead to it's degeneration. The people in Cuba are well educated and care deeply for their country and I bet they would respond to revolutionary measures that would restore equality and popular control over the economy.
It would be a pity if Cuba were to prove that even the best cases of "existant socialism" would need to be destroyed by capitalism before any new socialist movement gets to have another try at the Revolution.

Fez, I will never forget the sight and sound of one of Pinochet's sons angry about the arrest of their father in London.
"How dare they! These fascist thugs..." (he was clearly very, very drunk).
Still makes me chuckle. My point being, reacting in anger never does your arguments any good. Hey, that's given me an idea for a new thread...
