Been thinking lately about the Pulitzer Prize winning photo of U.S. federal agents pointing guns at 6-year-old Elián González during “Operation Reunion”.

Hi! Hope you are well! One of the only storylines in DS9 that has truly truly confused and bugged me comes from the episode “Cardassians” who’s decision was it to have Rugal return to cardassia with his “father” when he showed absolutely no desire to connect with him nor any desire to go back to cardassia. He had a family on bajor who loved him and raised him and who he loved. It seemed a bit cruel in the end for sisko to be the one to decide that he had to go live with this man who he clearly detested.
Did you guys ever consider not doing that and having him stay on bajor? It just seemed off. Like in suddenly human with jono they let him make the decision to go back and live with the talarians, so I was confused by the route they took with this episode in that regard because I expected it to end similarly.
I wasn't super involved in that one, but I think the logic was that Sisko would have to make the hard decision to send Rugal back to his "real" family, even though it feels terrible, because it's politically necessary and probably better for Rugal in the long run... ish? That's how it would work in the real world... which ended up being a little prophetic given how how the episode's resolution pre-figured the Elian Gonzalez incident 6 years later.
Also worth remembering that Rugal's fate was a manipulation by Gul Dukat against his political enemy, which Sisko undid by returning him to his biological father.

FRIKI
If you haven’t heard it yet, GONZY’s latest single, “FRIKI,” is quickly becoming a fan favorite and has been on repeat for many, including myself. Released in April 2024, “FRIKI” showcases GONZY’s unique blend of Latin R&B and Reggaetón, further solidifying his presence in the urban Latin music scene. Who is GONZY? Elian Gonzalez, known professionally as GONZY, is a Cuban-American artist whose…

The left media loved it when Clinton sent Elian Gonzalez back to Fidel Castro's Cuba when he was free in the USA.

Tom Homan predicts that the liberal media will show the first female or child crying they can to try and manipulate public perception. He says they will be sued numerous times a day but he doesn't care what the media says anymore as reports are coming out that ICE plans to start major illegal immigration raids on day one of Trump's administration.
He is sick and tired of seeing all the trafficked women and children due to open border policies.
Hate all you want.
Push the misinformation on all you want.
We're not gonna slow down.
We're not gonna go away. We're gonna get this done. 🤔

And what's with the rename to St Nikolas? Should have named it the USS Elian Gonzalez
[Story was published before the US & UK initiated airstrikes on Yemen]
An oil tanker was seized by the Iranian navy in the waters between Iran and Oman on Thursday, according to [Iranian] state media.
Iran's state-run news agency IRNA published a brief story confirming the seizure by the navy but did not identify the vessel.[...]
In 2023, the same tanker was seized by the United States in a sanctions enforcement operation [sic] as it was taking Iran oil to China. Then called the Suez Rajan, it was later renamed to the St. Nikolas.
White House spokesperson John Kirby condemned the seizure of the oil tanker and called on Iran to "immediately release the ship and its crew."
"Its provocative and unacceptable actions need to stop," he said.

His mom left in '85 but she wasn't able to get him out until after Ceausescu fell. He, along with other Rockland county students, were interviewed about Elian Gonzalez with Seb was a junior. "From age 3-8, Stan lived with his grandparents in his native Romania, then a communist dictatorship, while his mother went to Austria in search of a better life for them" Direct quote from Seb - " She had the best of intentions" / okay, thanks to both anons for explaining, 🧡 I didn't read about it

My views on history keep bouncing back and forth between strong technical determinism and actually everything is completely random. Like looking back to the 2000 elections, there’s a good chance that a random Cuban refuge drowning while her son still made it to the US swung Florida. From there, I think that Gore loosing will end up being one of the big turning points in the downfall of western civilization and the destruction of the environment, unless we hit the singularity first or something that is.
