Ten years on, not-so-baby Elian
Elian Gonzalez, the Cuban castaway boy who became the object of an international custody battle a decade ago in Miami, said on Wednesday he was happy he ended up back in Cuba.In his first public comments in several years, he also said he has no hard feelings toward the Miami relatives who fought to keep him there, on grounds that he would have a better life in the United States. "This is the place I belong. Here I feel good," Gonzalez told reporters after a Havana church service commemorating the 10th anniversary of his return. "Thanks to the help of a big part of the American people and of our people, today I'm with my father, and that is everything'" http://www.independent.co.uk/news/wo...e-2015431.html |

He's turned out to be a nice little propaganda tool for the regime, hasn't he? Good in a way that he's been nice/allowed to be nice to the Miami relatives, maybe we'll one day see some rapproachment between those two groups (I often get the feeling that many Americans don't hate Cuba with half the intensity of the Miami Cubans, which has to be a good sign for the future).
Interesting, thanks Finn.

Is it wrong that I think the guy with the gun looks like JDB with a dodgy 'tache?

I was going to say current age Elian looks a bit like a young cuban JDB.
