10/6    This is a serious troll. Who thinks Israel's action is a little
        out of line? Maybe Cuba ought to fire a missile at Florida for
        there's a lot of anti-cuban people there.
        \_ No one in Florida is sending suicide bombers to Cuban cafes the
           last I checked.  If you're going to troll, you need to start
           with a better premise.  I salute your efforts, Young Troll, but
           ready for trolling, you are not.
           \_ Well, actually:
              http://www.nscuba.org/Docs/Terrorism/TerrorActs-1.html
           \_ And...there's been little more than "cause we said so" to
              indicate the camp was active or that Syria has been responsible
              for anything other than happening to be there.
        \_ Well...it's Florida...how about Mississippi?  It's almost as
           close.  Or Alabama.
           \_ "We'll try to stay cool and calm
               when Alabama gets the bomb!"
        \_ "Israel must not feel constrained in terms of defending the
           homeland."  -GWB There Bush formally said it. Israel has a green
           light to do whatever it feels like and not feel bound by
           the Geneva Convention, International Law, or any other
           pesky constraints. Watch them nuke Damascus next.
        \_ How is this different from what they have been doing in the past?
           Israel has bombed Iraq's nuclear reactor into oblivion, invaded
           Lebanon, raided PLO's headquarters in Libya. What you see is a normal
           state of affairs in the middle east..

1/4     Why the fascination with blowing up airplanes? Airports have tight
        security. It doesn't seem worth it. It's far easier to derail a
        train or set off explosives in a crowded place like a theater or
        sporting event. As many or more people will be killed and it will
        still make the news. I don't get why all of our security, and
        apprently much of the terrorist's resources, is focused on airplanes.

SUMMARY OF THE MAIN TERRORIST ACTIONS AGAINST CUBA 1990-2000 From 1959 on, counterrevolutionary groups created and run by the US Central Intelligence Agency CIA have carried out numerous terrorist activities which have cost our country valuable lives and vast amounts of resources. Encouraged by the fall of the socialist camp at the beginning of the 90s, these groups intensified their violent actions against the Cuban people and its leaders from US territory and from other bases of operations in Central America. Below are listed some of the most important of these actions, which are of public domain. Following lobbying by Florida Republican Congresspersons, Ileana Ross and Connie Mack, United States President George H. Bush released from jail well-known terrorist Orlando Bosch, the man chiefly responsible for the October 1976 blasting of a Cuban civil airplane in mid-flight, killing all 73 on board. Two armed terrorists sneaked into Santa Cruz del Norte as part of an action concocted in Miami. Their weapons and false documents supplied in Miami were confiscated. They also carried literature urging people to join what they called The Cuban Liberation Army headed by Higinio Daz Anne who had given them money and propaganda before they set out. Jos Basulto, an ex-Bay of Pigs mercenary and well-known terrorist and CIA agent founded the so-called Brothers to the Rescue. Bush for three United States Air Force type 0-2 planes, the military version of the Cessna which had been used in the war in El Salvador. Congresswoman Ileana Ross started a public campaign and lobbied until the three planes were obtained. A photo of the planes received by this counter- revolutionary group appeared in the press for the first time with a July 19 article by the publisher of the Miami Herald, who flew with Brothers to the Rescue. The letters USAF United States Air Force are clearly visible on the planes. Their mission was to sabotage tourist shops to spread terror among foreign tourists. Three terrorists from the so-called Commandos L group in Miami entered Cuba illegally. These three had received training with 50 or 60 other men in a camp on 168 Street in Miami. Cuba files a complaint with the United Nations about terrorist activities organized against its territory. At Cubas request, a June 23, 1989 decision of the United States Department of Justice is circulated as an official Security Council document. The decision states that Orlando Bosch is banned from entering the United States territory because there is substantial proof concerning his past and present terrorist activities, including the 1976 blasting off of a Cuban civil aviation plane in mid-flight. Today this individual freely walks the streets of Miami after George H. A group of terrorists set out from the United States to attack economic targets along the Havana coastline. Once detected by Cuban patrol boats, they moved to waters off Varadero, where United States coastguards rescued them after their boat had a mechanical failure. The FBI released them after the confiscation of weapons, maps and videos made during their journey. An operation to infiltrate an United States based terrorist into Cuba with the mission to sabotage an economic target in Villa Clara province failed. He was carrying the weapons and explosives needed for the job and had the assistance of Brothers to the Rescue who kept him informed about the position of the United States coastguard to make it easier for him to reach Cuban territory. The FBI for illegal possession of firearms and violation of the Law of Neutrality arrests a Cuban born terrorist. An armed attack against the Varadero Meli Hotel is perpetrated from a vessel manned by four Miami terrorists who were later arrested and questioned by the FBI, then released. Three Miami based counterrevolutionaries entered Cuba illegally with plenty of weapons and military equipment that were confiscated. At the same time, three other terrorists were arrested in the Bahamas with weapons and explosives apparently destined for Cuba, which were also seized from them. Five terrorists on board a vessel armed with heavy machine guns and other weapons were arrested by the United States coastguard as they were heading toward the Cuban coastline. At a press conference in Miami, Tony Bryant, leader of the terrorist group Commandos L announced plans to carry out more attacks against targets in Cuba, especially hotels. He said: from now on we are at war with Cuba and warned foreign tourists to stay away from Cuba. The tanker ship Mikonos sailing under the Cypriot flag was fired on 7 miles north of Matanzas from a vessel crewed by Cuban born, United States based terrorists. A violation of Cuban airspace by a plane registered to Brothers to the Rescue with the number N8447. Nine terrorists arrested by the United States Customs Service on board a vessel as they prepared to sail for Cuba to launch attacks on that country. Brothers to the Rescue planned to blow up a high-tension pylon near San Nicols de Bari in Havana province. Brothers to the Rescue publicly encouraged attempts on the life of President Fidel Castro and violence against Cuba. It also confirmed its readiness to accept the risks that come with doing this. Andrs Nazario Sargn, head of terrorist group Alpha 66, makes an announcement in the United States that his organization has recently carried out five operations against Cuba. A terrorist living in the United States is arrested on his arrival in Cuba. Humberto Prez, spokesperson for Alpha 66, said in a press conference in Miami that their war against Cuba would soon be extended to any tourist visiting the island: We consider anyone staying in a Cuban hotel to be an enemy , he affirmed. A Cuban citizen visiting the United States is recruited by a terrorist organization to carry out sabotage in Cuba against the tourism and agricultural sectors. He was supplied with some of the materials needed for such actions and was offered the sum of 20,000 US dollars. A terrorist group from Miami fires on the Guitart Cayo Coco Hotel. Planes owned by Brothers to the Rescue fly at extremely low altitude over Havana and drop smoke bombs. In the following months of 1994 the same group carried out at least seven other similar violations of Cubas airspace. Two United States based terrorists infiltrated into the area around Caibarin, Villa Clara, with the aim of carrying out sabotage in that province. A number of weapons and large amounts of military equipment were seized. Another armed group fired automatic weapons at the Guitart Cayo Coco Hotel from a boat that set out from Florida. A group of armed terrorists coming from the United States landed on the causeway to Cayo Santa Mara near Caibarin, Villa Clara, and murdered comrade Arcelio Rodrguez Garca. Brothers to the Rescue uses one of its planes to train members of a Florida based counterrevolutionary organization to carry out acts of sabotage on the Cienfuegos oil refinery. In November of that same year, they also planned to make an attempt on the life of President Fidel Castro and other leaders of the Revolution and to smuggle arms and explosives into Cuba. Terrorist Luis Posada Carriles and five of his accomplices smuggled weapons into Cartagena de Indias, Colombia, during the IV Ibero-American Summit of Heads of State and Government in order to make an attempt on the life of President Fidel Castro. However, the security belt keeps him at a distance thus thwarting his aim. Posada Carriles later told the New York Times: I was standing behind some journalists and I saw Castros friend, Garca Mrquez, but I could only see Castro from a long way away. After sneaking into Cuba, they were relieved of weapons and munitions. Two terrorists from the United States sneaked into the coast near Puerto Padre, Las Tunas. They were carrying 51 pounds of C-4 explosives and other munitions. A C - 337 light plane violates Cuban airspace north of Havana between Santa F and Guanabo beach. The Guitart Cayo Coco Hotel was once again attacked by terrorists manning a fast launch coming from the United States. Three terrorists were arrested in the United States as they were p...
