US accused of protecting Cuban militant
September 30, 2005

The US is protecting the "Osama bin Laden of Latin America", the Venezuelan president said today.

Hugo Chavez made his remarks after a US judge ruled against deporting a Cuban militant who blew up a passenger jet in 1976.

Luis Posada Carriles - who is wanted in Venezuela for the bombing - this week told an extradition hearing that he faced torture if he was returned to the country.

An immigration judge in El Paso, Texas, upheld the claims, ruling that 77-year-old Mr Carriles could not be extradited.

So if they can't extradita Posada, what's next? A UN ambassadorship?

1. Miami will name a 'day' for him like they did for his accomplice
and fellow terrorist, Orlando Bosch Avila. Soon they'll be strolling down Calle Ocho together reminiscing about old times and who they murdered and playing dominos with other terrorist pals who live in Miami.
