We are sending doctors, not soldiers

granma.cu - Reflections of Fidel: We are sending doctors, not soldiers: "It is only fair to confirm that, to date, our modest aircraft and the important human resources that Cuba has placed at the disposal of the Haitian people have arrived at their destination without any difficulty whatsoever.

We are sending doctors, not soldiers!"

Is this an opportunity wasted?  Shouldn't Obama/Clinton use this as chance to open relations with Cuba?
