Cnn is reporting that Raul Castro has lifted the ban on cell phones and that ordinary citizens would be getting them. Within the first few weeks of being officially in charge, the new Castro has begun letting more and more freedom into Cuba. I wonder what his brother, Fidel thinks. Maybe America should send Barbara Walters over there to find out, seeing as how they seem to have a special relationship when it comes to interviews.
I think it would be especially interesting to see how Fidel feels about his brother’s policies. Maybe it was something that Fidel had wanted too, but couldn’t just trust? Maybe all this is just a ploy to get some capitalist aid from democratic countries like the United States and the UK? I don’t know, but I’d definitely like to hear Fidel’s and the citizen’s of Cuba’s reactions to the policies.
