Terrorists in Miami, Oh My! ( Robert Parry )

Terrorists in Miami, Oh My!
By Robert Parry
June 24, 2006


The Bush administration finally took action against alleged terrorists living in plain sight in Miami, but they weren’t the right-wing Cuban terrorists implicated in actual acts of terror, such as blowing a civilian Cuban airliner out of the sky. They were seven young black men whose crime was more “aspirational than operational,” the FBI said.

<snip>

For longtime observers of political terrorism in South Florida, the aggressive reaction to what may have been the Miami group’s loose talk about violence, possibly spurred by an FBI informant posing as an al-Qaeda operative, stands in marked contrast to the U.S. government’s see-no-evil approach to notorious Cuban terrorists who have lived openly in Miami for decades.

Excellent reprise of longtime Bush family ties to right-wing Cuban terrorists in Miami.

8. A painful truth is revealed in this great Parry article:

The evidence points to one obvious conclusion: the Bushes regard terrorism – defined as killing civilians to make a political point – as justified in cases when their interests match those of the terrorists. In other words, their moral outrage is selective, depending on the identity of the victims.

(snip)
I hope it gets a LOT of readers. More people need to know about these monsters, and obviously our own corporate media has never wanted us to worry our beautiful minds about them, and has spared us ALL information we could have used a long time ago.

Talk about "coddling criminals." There are NO criminals coddled as excessively as these creeps are coddled by the American right-wing administrations.
