Hey, this is really important, and most of the media has ignored it. But our friends at the Center for Democracy in the Americas noticed. Take a look at what Mr. Gross had to say about his activities in Cuba.

"His remarks say, 'As Members of the Committee know, I recently concluded five years of imprisonment in Cuba due to my participation in a USAID-sponsored program authorized and funded pursuant to the Helms-Burton Act.'

"Mr. Gross, by telling the truth, made news and left the State Department rather exposed.

"This is not their story. From early January 2010, when State began taking questions on his case, it would never concede what Mr. Gross said so plainly today. Instead, its spokespersons told the U.S. public he was arrested for 'facilitating Internet access for Cuba’s small Jewish community,' he was 'innocent,' his case was a matter 'of a sitting government having locked up a human – an assistance worker on no basis whatsoever,' and so forth. This was spin they would repeat for five years and it wasn’t true."
