ANTI-CUBA
terrorism organized and financed in the United
States on this date 33 years ago took its worst form
when 73 people lost their lives in the sabotage of a
Cuban airliner over Barbados.
Since then, every October 6th has been a motive
for pain in this country, but also of constantly
speaking out against the masterminds of that
enormous crime, for them to pay for their deeds,
because with the protection of the U.S. government,
they are at liberty on the streets of that northern
nation.
Orlando Bosch and Luis Posada Carrilles were the
ones responsible for the terrible act, and true
justice has yet to be done, given the double
standards applied by successive U.S. administrations
that claim to be anti-terrorist.
Those in the world who know about this case also
express their indignation, and together with the
Cuban people, they demand punishment for the
terrorists, who have been participants in other
blood-soaked crimes.
As an example of the outrageous U.S. attitude,
those terrorists remain free while five Cubans have
been imprisoned for more than 11 years for defending
their country from such criminal acts.
Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, Fernando
González, Ramón Labañino and René González were
protecting us from individuals like Posada, several
middle-school students told the Prensa Latina news
agency.
These young people, together with others of their
generation from all over Cuba, will speak out today,
Tuesday, at their schools to once again condemn that
crime and once again demand justice. (PL)
