South Florida's three Cuban-American members of Congress condemned the Justice Department Thursday for sending Miami FBI agents to Cuba to collect evidence against Luis Posada Carriles in a hotel bombing that killed an Italian in Havana a decade ago.
'By asking a state sponsor of terrorism for `evidence' regarding terrorism, the Bush administration Justice Department demonstrates a shockingly profound ignorance of the nature of terrorism, of its origins and its state sponsors,'' U.S. Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen and brothers Lincoln and Mario D\ufffdaz-Balart said in a statement.
The Posada case seems to be triggering some strange reactions in Miami-Cubans. Not a surprise since Posada was working with terrorist groups based in the Miami-Cuban population.
The whole case is interesting because Posada is obviously guilty, but getting the evidence to prove it could be hard.
