The Five
Unsurpassable cruelty
• State
Department once again denies visa to wife of Gerardo
Hernández, one of the five anti-terrorist Cubans
 WITH unsurpassable cruelty, the U.S. State
Department today (July 15) once again denied a visa
to Adriana Pérez, thus preventing her from visiting
her husband, Gerardo Hernández Nordelo, who is
unjustly incarcerated in the United States for
having fought, peacefully and without weapons,
against anti-Cuban terrorist groups who have always
had the sponsorship and protection of successive U.S.
governments, including the current administration.
For his heroic conduct, Gerardo was handed down
two life terms plus 15 years and, as if that brutal
and illegal punishment were not enough, he has been
unable to see his wife for 11 years. This decision
confirms that, in terms of sponsoring anti-Cuba
terrorism, nothing has changed in Washington.
Reaching the height of cynicism, the secretary of
state considers that Adriana constitutes a threat to
the stability and national security of the United
States.
Words cannot express this indecency.
How much longer? Concludes the press release from
the presidential office of the National Assembly of
People’s Power.
NB: Adriana and Gerardo have been married for 21
years precisely on July 15. Nothing happens by
chance in this case.

Cuban Five condemn
Israeli aggression in Gaza

Urgent
message to the Palestinian people:
IT is with profound pain and infinite indignation
that we have witnessed the criminal massacre of the
Palestinian people; there are no words to describe
this holocaust. The death of every innocent child,
woman and man and the destruction of the homeland’s
holy ground are crimes against humanity and debts
that will someday be paid for dearly by the
governments of Israel, the United States — which
supports the former — and international imperialism.
