Well, what the heck were the Contras? For that matter, what about the gringo soldiers selling ammo in Colombia? Has Bush denounced them as terrorists? <vbg>

"Washington would offend American principles and set an extremely damaging precedent by making a special exception for an admitted terrorist." So? This isn't nearly as important as political expediency...

In the name of credibility, consistency and justice for the 73 victims, Luis Posada Carriles, the prime suspect in the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner, should not be granted political asylum in the United States, which he is thought to have entered illegally six weeks ago. Instead, he should be arrested and extradited for trial, not only for the airliner attack, but also for other terrorist attacks that he has acknowledged planning, including one in 1997 that killed an Italian businessman visiting Havana. I don't understand your attitude, JF. Carriles is a good guy.....he brought down one of Castro's airliners. The enemy of our enemy is our friend even if he's a terrorist and its after 9/11. ;~) ted
