Fidel: Washington Hatches Terrorists |
2005-05-13 |
C![]() Fidel Castro emphasized that the United States was the architect behind terrorism and that it trained the organizers of horrendous criminal acts in which even thousands of US citizens were killed, alluding to the attack on the World Trade Center. He also recalled that George Bush Sr. had been linked to terrorist actions, as he was the CIA's director when a Cuban airliner was bombed in 1976 off Barbados and when former Chilean Foreign Minister Orlando Letelier was assassinated in Washington. "The current US government is an accomplice to the terrorist Miami-based mafia to whom George W. Bush owes his presidency," he said Citing US media sources, Fidel Castro referred to an interview with Eduardo Soto, Luis Posada Carriles' lawyer, who said that the White House cannot act against his client because they trained him to plant bombs and assassinate the Cuban president. |

#2 Know anything about this chick, El Jefe? EWING -- Indignant New Jersey troopers blasted Cuban leader Fidel Castro yesterday for calling convicted cop killer Joanne Chesimard a "political prisoner’’ and victim of American racism. "We want the rest of the world to know what she’s about and to make sure they do not receive her as anything but a murderer," said Sgt. Stephen Jones, state police spokesman. ...Chesimard, sitting in the right front passenger seat, opened fire first and the others followed, said state police detective Kevin Torme, lead investigator in the Chesimard’s case.After a hail of bullets, Foerster, 34, and Coston were mortally wounded. "One of the them executed Trooper Foerster with his own service revolver -- by shooting him twice in the head. On the pavement by Trooper Foerster’s hip was Chesimard’s gun that was jammed," Torme said. Chesimard, who now calls herself Assata Shakur and is a professor in Havana under the protection of Castro, was sent to the Clinton Correctional Facility in Hunterdon County."She escaped in a well-orchestrated prison break on Nov. 2, 1979," Jones said.The escapee fled to Cuba where she is being given political asylum. On Tuesday, Castro appeared to call Chesimard, now 57, a victim of "the fierce repression against the Black movement in the United States and has been a true political prisoner." Well now. It looks like you do. |
