#3 Cuban leader Fidel Castro's government has long maintained good relations with most Muslim countries. It strongly supported Yasser Arafat, the late leader of the Palestine Liberation Organization, and had close contacts with former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. Cuba also has close political and trade links to Iran, which is predominantly Shiite

Reaping what has been sown.

#4 I see this as a trend many on the far left will embrace, not fight.

#5 Any chance we'll see ol' Fidel taking the shahada and becoming Abu al-Havani?

#6 So the converts are now asking for permission to build a mosque in Havana. ''Cuba is the only Latin American country without a mosque, and where there's no mosque it is very difficult to establish social exchanges,'' Cossío said. For now, though, that would seem unlikely. For years, the Islamic diplomatic community asked for one but had to resort to makeshift prayer halls in diplomatic compounds. And Cuba has been all but barring other religions from building new temples.

Ah, but some "understanding" can surely be reached amongst the wise heads of Cuba, Venezuela, and Iran. What's a few souls when balanced with rivers of oil?

#7 If we set the charges on the north side, can we blow a mosque from Ohio to Cuba ? Then they can have their own place.

#9 Some Cubans are trying to float over here in '57 Chevy's. I'll bet a lot, lot more then those who are converting to Islam...

#11 Yeah, but the article talks about 70 diehards. That's a pretty good hard boy brigade, when the intifada goes live. It also seems to me that a lot of down-and-out cubanos would gladly receive Allan's message that it's all the fault of the Jooos. And I think that Abu al-Havani would not mind diverting his subjects' righteous anger, and undercutting all those meddlesome priests.

#13 But, but... the music and the dancing and the skimpy ladies outfits and the food and the alcohol and the love of life!

#14 Y'all are barking up the wrong tree.
Unka Fidel has spent better than 30 years telling his Subjects "It's all the Evil Americans Fault"

To suddenly switch the message to "It's all the Joos fault" would make too many people think "What the Fuck?"

The regeme could not stand the shockwaves, Fidel has surely hand picked his successor and would not want this turmoil so near succession.

#15 Sorry, should read "Better than 50 years"

To suddenly switch the message to "It's all the Joos fault" would make too many people think "What the Fuck?"

You're forgetting that the prime element of "it's all the Joos fault" is that the Joos control America. Castro doesn't need to change his villains, just explain who's pulling strings.
