US-Led Terrorism Puts US Credibility in Question
Havana, Mar 31 (Prensa Latina) Ricardo Alarcon, president of Cuba''s Parliament, assured that no Administration in the United States will be credible for Latin America as long as it keeps supporting terrorism and holding in prison the Cuban Five.

It is impossible to think that the U.S. government expects to have credibility with such obvious complicity with terrorism, said Alarcon at the TV news analysis program "Mesa Redonda Informativa".

In his comments, Alarcon urged to free anti-terrorists Gerardo Hernández, Ramón Labañino, Antonio Guerrero, Fernando González and René González, now serving over 12 years in US Federal prisons.

Alarcon added that President Barack Obama should be persuaded to pardon the Cuban Five, as they are known in international campaigns for their release.

1. He's right on every point, unfortunately.
The Israeli spies were certainly spying on the U.S., not terrorists inside the U.S. flying out of U.S. bases to terrorize Cubans. So it's just fine to pardon them. Oh, sure, it is.

The leaders of their homeland have never given up the fight. It's good to hear from Alarcon what they perceive as the potential next steps, even without the tremendous skill and effort from the late Leonard Weinglass.

They should never give up. Their cause is important world-wide.

Thanks for the article, dipsydoodle.

I agree that the cuban five should be released, but the article did not cite any specifics of the US supporting terrorism.
