Upon arrival in the United States, Juan Miguel decried efforts by Elian's Miami relatives to brainwash the boy and turn him against Cuba and his father. If that doesn't sound like stereotypical Communist rhetoric, I don't know what does. Castro announced that Elian will be a ward of the state if returned to Cuba. He will be indoctrinated into Communism, probably quickly and forcefully to erase fond memories of freedom. Our administration is doing all that it can to advance this outcome.
Immigrants flood our borders daily.
Elian's Miami relatives took the issue to court, and the appeals process continues. But Janet Reno seems determined to ship the boy out before the judicial process runs its course. The government won't even promise not to attempt to forcefully possess the boy in the middle of the night. As protests by Cuban immigrants in Miami mount, Reno warns that she will not tolerate civil unrest. Demonstrations and unrest are a way of life in America.
