1. Does Cuba really need another reason to get hassled by the US? n/t

[Mika]

4. There has never been a legitimate reason for the US to hassle Cuba.

Except avarice and greed.

Everything else is window dressing to cover over American imperialism and corruption.

3. I don't think Assange would like to brush his teeth with salt

I hear Cuba is getting pretty bad.

5. I watched this the other day and Assange certainly rejected that notion with a laugh

He answered something like how he hoped it would never come to that.

6. Does Cuba have enough bandwidth to support him? n/t

7. Cuba doesn't have enough bandwidth to get them out to the WWW.

Remember, Cuba has an extensive infranet available to all Cubans in schools and libraries. Cubans will have access to the Wikileaks docs, plus many have the time to actually read them. Also, Cuba's media will not be obsessing over the political gamesmanship of the prosecution of Assange. Unlike the corporate media, they will be focusing on the content of the leaks. I bet that the best show on TV anywhere in the world on this issue is "The Round Table", a real issue based, very popular nightly discussion show on Cuban TV.
