And From Cuba...

Cubans Insist That Washington Shields An International Terrorist


The Cuban government contends that at the end of March, the United States admitted a known terrorist into the United States, that there have been reports in the American media about his presence, and that Washington has been silent on the subject.

President Fidel Castro yesterday demanded that U.S. President George W. Bush respond before the world, as to whether his government is sheltering notorious international terrorist Luis Posada Carriles on U.S. territory.

By April 11, Posada Carriles had been in the U.S. for 19 days, but top officials in that country had not said a single word on the subject; the news had spread via press reports like one published in The Miami Herald, in which a federal official confirmed the terrorist's presence.

All indications are that the assassin's rigged, silent and conspiratorial entry into the U.S. is in line with Washington's wish to let time pass. Given that Washington is now trying to condemn Cuba in the U.N. Human Rights Commission, it would not be convenient for the world to learn of the empire's hypocritical attitude, the revolutionary leader said.

"We call on them to say something, to express some kind of opinion regarding something that is like a creature about to be born. The truth is, at this moment, the honorable president of the United States is like a pregnant woman with a monster in her belly, and she has to give birth, and soon, because it would be too hard to backtrack; they have to present it," Fidel affirmed during a special appearance at [Cuba's] International Conference Center.

The president of the Council of State reminded the U.S. president of the latter's comment on August 26, 2003, when Bush affirmed that he was sending a message that could be understood by the whole world: if someone protects a terrorist, if someone feeds a terrorist, then that person is just as guilty as the terrorists.

Therefore, how to understand the protection being afforded Posada Carriles? In Fidel's opinion, doing so is an outrage to the U.S. citizens who died in the Twin Towers in New York; not forgetting that thousands of relatives of those who have been sacrificed in atrocious terrorist acts are living there -- and here.
