The Two Faced Cuban Government

Seems like April Fool's came a few months early. Cuba announced today that staring early 2009, it will allow the U.N. Human Rights Council to monitor their human rights record.

Minutes after he spoke, plainclothes policemen broke up a small demonstration by
dissidents marking International Human Rights Day in a nearby square. Two were
detained and driven away in a car, a witness said.

Government

and shouted "Viva Fidel" for ailing Cuban leader Fidel Castro, who has not
appeared in public in 16 months.
