DAVID CARR NOTES CASTRO’S CRACKDOWN ON DISSIDENTS and suggests that it’s evidence that the Castro regime is worried:

When governments start incarcerating their political opponents for life, it is because they are frightened and deeply worried and usually with good reason. I suspect the game is nearly up.

I hope he’s right. He also adds:

And, just as an aside, doesn’t this show up the juvenile, publicity-seeking, egocentrism of the ‘Bush is Hitler’ mob in sharp relief? While genuine freedom fighters risk their very lives by taking on ‘Il Presidente’, the likes of Michael Moore can pose as ‘oppressed heroic victims’ while being chauffeured around to their various awards ceremonies and public speaking engagements.

And saying nice things about Castro, more often than not.
