I was the other day in Miami and had a chance to meet with a number of Cuban refugees who would love a chance to be free in their own country and who talked about what it was like to live 90 miles from a Communist dictatorship. I guess the point I would make is that we have here a half step toward the ostrich getting its head out of the sand because they at least mention refugees. I think it should also lead them to pause and think why are all these refugees out there? Why is it that every week right now in Honduras. but more importantly in Costa Rica. a free. democratic country. every week now there are people fleeing out of Nicaragua. young men fleeing the draft. people who believe in religious freedom fleeing from Communist tyranny. and every week there is a migration of human beings out of Nicaragua. One of the tragedies of the Soviet system everywhere it goes is that as it oppresses human freedom. people leave their homes. their families. their neighbors. they flee their culture. their food. their customs. their language and they go to a strange plbce because people love freedom and fear tyranny.
