I don't dispute that the author may be biased but that doesn't invalidate the statements made. From what I know of Cuba I'm inclined to believe both of those statements. And no, I'm not a fan of the Cuban government. I just don't think that not mentioning the 'brutal dictatorship' amounts to ignoring it. Should it be mentioned at all times to assure readers of a lack of bias? Ironically, your insistence on mentioning it makes me suspect that you yourself have a bias.
