Today marks the 25th anniversary of the Elian Gonzalez saga. Cuban expert Andy Gomez says there should have never been a tug-of-war over the then-five-year-old who was found drifting off the Fort Lauderdale coast. Elian was at the center of a seven-month-long international custody battle because he was granted asylum under U-S refugee rules at the time and went to live with his great uncle in Miami. His father, who had international law on his side, got help from then-President Fidel Castro to get him back. Many Cuban Americans had hoped to humiliate Castro, but their plan backfired.
