As happened with the Soviet Union and the Peoples Republic of China. much of the world has denied. ignored. and become inured to the litany of human rights abuses emanating from Cuba. Now. with the cold war over. there is even less interest. Ramming tugs full of refugees. arbitrary arrests. madeup crimes and lengthy imprisonment in squalid prisons and psychiatric hospitals apparently do not raise an eyebrow anymore. The final step in the process of accommodation. normalization of commercial and other ties. is taking place now as many countries look for commercial opportunities in Cuba. Before I go on to explain why foreign investment in Cuba will prolong. not end. the tyranny of Fidel Castro. let me address the state of human rights in Cuba today.
