What does the Vatican want for Cuba?

Freedom? Depends on whose freedom you’re referring to.

Liberty? Again, whose liberty are you talking about?

The end to repression? Let’s be honest here, not everyone in Cuba is repressed.

According to this leaked diplomatic cable from the American embassy at the Vatican, it seems that the leadership of the Holy Roman Catholic Church is more interested in maintaining its privileged position in Castro’s Cuba than it is in gaining the freedom of all Cubans on the island.

Via Penúltimos Días:

The Church is the only major institution in Cuba that is independent from the government. The Vatican hopes for a transition to democracy in Cuba, but is not at the forefront of that battle because it is more concerned about protecting its small space for operations in Cuba.

Now tell me again how the Catholic Church is doing all it can to help the Cuban people rid themselves of the diabolical, repressive, and vile regime that has murdered tens of thousands of innocent Cubans.

De verdad que esto le ronca los mangos.
