If People Like Bono Join The Cause
july 1, 2011
Cuba will indeed soon be free.
From The Miami Herald:
U2's Bono urged support for Cuban dissident Biscet
Cuban dissident Oscar Elias Biscet says the praise from Bono at a Miami South Florida concert was for the Cuban people overall.
Cuba's leading dissident, Oscar Elias Biscet, said he "was shaking with happiness" as he learned Thursday that rock star and social activist Bono had sung his praises during a jam-packed U2 concert in Miami.
The 73,000-strong audience at the Sun Life stadium roared with delight Wednesday when Bono urged support for the 49-year-old Biscet and declared that "some day soon Cuba will be free."
"As you read me what he said, I was shaking with happiness because it showed it's good when one is chosen as a symbol of his people," Biscet told El Nuevo Herald, which first told him of Bono's comments.
"He's praising not me but all my people, all Cubans," he added in a telephone interview from his home in Havana. "And I agree that Cuba will be free, if people like Bono join the cause" of human rights on the island.
