NEWS & LETTERS, June -July 2007Our Life and Times by Kevin A. Barry and Mitch WeerthCuban terrorist freedLuis Posada, who had been detained in the U.S. since he entered the country in 2005, is again a free man since the immigration charges against him were dropped on May 8. He is reportedly living again among his admirers in the Miami community of rightist Cuban exiles. Posada, 79 years old now, was trained by the U.S. in explosives, sent on the Bay of Pigs invasion, and participated in many CIA financed terrorist adventures in South and Central America over the years. He has admitted that he participated in the 1990s bombings of tourists in Havana and FBI documents accuse him of orchestrating the 1976 bombing of the Cubana airlines flight from Tobago that killed 73. Yet the U.S. refuses to bring him to justice or honor the Venezuelan government’s request to extradite him (he had become a naturalized citizen there by the time of the 1976 bombing). |
