Castro, the Carribean, and Terrorism
various links | 10-21-01 | backhoe

Posted on 11/21/2001 2:56:57 AM PST by backhoe

For years I have tried to warn people about the heating up of trouble spots "south of the border" ( Central & South America ), the inter-linking of terrorist groups there and elsewhere, and the Cuban/left-wing ties to all this.

Here are links, pulled from other links & posts, to give you a heads-up on "what the media doesn't want to talk about...."

IMHO, the "axis" of the Carribean/Cuba, Central America, and northern South America are shaping up as the new "hot spot" in a world full of hot spots- watch this space closely!

While we still will probably never convert the "true believers" who still worship the clinton crew, there are a lot of less radicalized citizens out there who just have never been exposed to a lot of the data we here have seen. Here's a good place to start them ( and a Tip O' the Hat to ChaseR who first suggested this approach to winning new converts )--

-Index of Panama articles--

-Index of Panama Archives articles--

Give those links to fence-straddlers, and after they have read some, just ask, "See how much you have not been told?"

"Watch this Space," folks- here's a new hot spot developing--

Deaths attributed to Castro:

Here are some figures:

executed      18,000
extrajudicial assassinations        1,000
disappeared          250
died in prison for lack of medical attention            50
murdered in prison by guards (brutality)          500
extrajudicial assassinations of women, for different causes          150
Sub-total for extrajudicial killings      20,400
political prisoners who reportedly committed suicide in prison          200
died at sea attempting to flee "balseros" - estimate based on Coast Guard estimates of casualties      83,000
Cubans killed in "internationalist-solidarity" wars in Africa      10,000
Total    113,600


The above numbers don't include deaths caused by Batista regime, documented by Armando Lago at 2,500, of which 2,200 are deaths in military battles in the Sierra Maestra, mostly soldiers, and 300 were murdered by Batista security forces.

To put these numbers into some context, note that all deaths reported during the entire Pinochet regime in Chile totaled no more than 3,100, a figure which includes the disappeared.

Nota Bene: Following the journalistic code of reporting by the Voice of America (VOA), two independent sources are used to confirm report of incident.

Photo credit: Juan Clark, Ph.D. Cuba: Exodus, Living Conditions and Human Rights.

 

Lest we forget, this list is a few years old, you can increase it by the number of deaths in the Straits (The Killing Waters), by the number of deaths in the Tugboat 13 de Marzo Massacre, and the murdered Brothers to the Rescue pilots.

Just Damn!

LGF'ers - pay attention now. Iran is in bed with Castro and vice versa. Cuba is not far from our shores and Iran is too far away for a first strike.

Do we have a 2nd potential Cuban Missile crisis on our hands except now it's Iran supplying weapons and not Russian?
