Perhaps we in the US should start first (Leonard Peltier?)

While you will hear my thoughts about photography here on RFF, you will never hear anything political. Be assured that I have strong political views but no one here will ever know what they are. This is just not the place.

I have spent two weeks in both. Costa Rica was very enjoyable but I am going back to Cuba.

Visiting Cuba should be less Cowboy style as compared to visiting Iraq. The trip to Iraq may not guarantee a return trip.
I completely fail to see the relevence of comparing Cuba with Iraq.
Cuba was without a doubt one of the safest countries I have ever travelled in. I felt completely safe in Cuba.
I can see where you're coming from, but its kind of an apples and oranges comparison IMO.
No doubt Costa Rica has a well developed tourist infrastructure with all the modern conveniences. Cuba is fascinating precisely because it is not developed.

So I stand corrected, and it is safe to travel inside Cuba. My "bad".
