The Puerto Ricans I have known, have pride, they love their country and not happy with the way US treats them. I think that is the reason why they welcome Montes so warmly.

[@el80ne]

It shouldn't be hard to understand when our gov and intel agencies don't exactly live up to our values and ideals. What if you came of age as a citizen of one of the numerous Latin American countries whose democratically elected leaders were overthrown by US funded coup d'etats led by repressive strongmen coimpliant to US policy interests. You'd have a very different impression of what US "freedom" means when it comes at the expense of your freedom. To the rest of the world the lasting impression would be the hypocrisy.

Also lets het real here, Cuba share, don't trade information with the America's enemies, that buy chance are Cuba's friends. The American government does exactly the same with his allies and lie to his citizens. Gof knows the facts behind the Kennedy death. The truth about UFO, the truth about 9/11. So stop making up stories because its not fair. I left the island many years ago but i didn't betray my country like that snake living in Miami.
