[Say_What]

in pdf format. From one terrorist organization to another.

Dear President Bush:

It is with deep regret that we write this open letter to
President Bush to express our disappointment with the
administration's present Cuba policy:

We write as your friends to ensure a successful Cuba policy,
Mr. Bush.

When you were a candidate for president and again in Miami
in May 2002, we heard words from you that gave us great
expectations that Cuba policy would soon lead to a free and
democratic Cuba. Unfortunately, the administration's Cuba
policy has not been significantly different than that of the
prior administration.

Today, we are no nearer to a free Cuba. The
wet-foot/dry-foot policy is still in effect. Recently, the
administration returned 12 Cubans to a dictator who denies
basic due process of law and, moreover, a priori negotiated
with the dictator their prison sentences. Radio and TV Martí
still do not reach the Cuban people in a meaningful way.
Castro has not yet been indicted for the murder of the four
Brothers to the Rescue pilots, three of them U.S. citizens
and all four Florida residents.

The dissident movement in Cuba has not received the promised
assistance from the U.S. government. They fight bravely, but
alone and in impoverished conditions.

Mr. President, we need a Cuba policy that respects the human
rights of the Cuban people and leads to a free Cuba. Please
understand that we have a high personal regard for you and
for your outstanding leadership of this great nation. Cuban
Americans have been responsible, engaged citizens and have
strongly supported you.

Notwithstanding, it is our responsibility to advance the
cause of a free Cuba and, therefore, respectfully request
the enactment of an effective Cuba policy that will bring an
end to the suffering of the Cuban people.

We know that one day soon, with your help, Cuba will return
to what it used to be, a free and independent nation and a
strong friend and ally of the United States of America.

God bless you and your family.

National Foundation
