Who knows what truth is when it comes to Cuba?

Bella Thomas, who has lived in Cuba and also has diplomatic contacts there, has a downbeat article on Cuba in Prospect Magazine. We've heard a lot about the good medical system there. She disputes that by recounting her visits to downtrodden, ill-supplied rat traps called hospitals. She also asserts that food is in short supply.

Her advice is that we drop the boycott. The flood of investment that would be generated would be good for Cubans and good for us.
