Castro Characterizes Cuban Militant Posada as Symbol of Terrorism

HAVANA (AP) - President Fidel Castro on Saturday characterized Cuban militant Luis Posada Carriles as a symbol of past U.S.-backed terrorism in the region, reiterating his earlier insistence that American officials turn his old nemesis over to Venezuela for prosecution in a deadly airliner bombing three decades ago.

I'm not sure that he is a terrorist.I don't know all of the facts of the case if he is the one who caused innocent people to die he should be prosecuted. I don't see how Castro could call anyone a terrorist. he really needs to look at his own government

By the administration's own definition of what a terrorist is, Posada certainly qualifies as that. It's more hypocrisy.

I'm not say that he's not a terrorist, your point was taken. but i can't see US Government using him to Blow up a plane full of innocent people. i think the US government should send him back to Ven. for a trial. but Castro calling it something that America has done is absurd.

He was a CIA asset for a long time. And he was responsible under that guise for killing many innocent people.

Our government should simply hand him over to Venezuela and be done with it. That would be the right, and legal thing to do.

None the less, a phrase about calling the kettle black comes to mind.
