Very disappointed with the pushback to my lamenting the conditions in Cuba caused by extraterritorial sanctions.

1. Responses to this post are amazingly painful to me.

I feel the same when I go to Cuba.

Returning back to the US and seeing the wealth here after the impoverished lifestyles lived by my relatives and beloved friends hurts me for weeks on end, and it haunts me so often I have to suppress my emotions. And to think it is done by our own government's extraterritorial sanctions to people who have done the US no harm makes it even worse.

For example, we stood in eight hour lines to get a quarter tank of propane to cook with, it's like that for most everything.

And no Cubans nor their government have ever attacked the US. It's sick.

Condemned by the world, the US continues abusing Cubans in Cuba.
