  • Cuba: Issues for the 109Th Congress
    Cuba: Issues for the 109th Congress Updated December 19, 2006 Congressional Research Service https://crsreports.congress.gov RL32730 Cuba: Issues for the 109th Congress Summary Since the early 1960s, U.S. policy toward Cuba under Fidel Castro has consisted largely of isolating the communist nation through comprehensive economic sanctions, which have been significantly tightened by the Bush Administration. Another component of U.S. policy has consisted of support measures for the Cuban people, including private humanitarian donations and U.S.-sponsored radio and television broadcasting to Cuba. While there appears to be broad agreement on the overall objective of U.S. policy toward Cuba—to help bring democracy and respect for human rights to the island—there are several schools of thought on how to achieve that objective: some advocate maximum pressure on Cuba until reforms are enacted; others argue for lifting some U.S. sanctions judged to be hurting the Cuban people; and still others call for a swift normalization of U.S.-Cuban relations. Fidel Castro’s announcement in late July 2006 that he was temporarily ceding political power to his brother Raúl in order to recover from surgery has prompted some Members to call for re-examination of U.S. policy. In the 109th Congress, legislative initiatives included the approval of five human rights resolutions: H.Con.Res. 81, H.Res. 193, H.Res. 388, S.Res. 140, and S.Res. 469. P.L. 109-102 funded Cuba democracy projects in FY2006. Action on several FY2007 appropriations measures were not completed, so action will need to be completed in 2007: House-passed H.R.

    Order Code RL33819 Cuba: Issues for the 110th Congress Updated May 1, 2007 Mark P. Sullivan Specialist in Latin American Affairs Foreign Affairs, Defense, and Trade Division Cuba: Issues for the 110th Congress Summary Since the early 1960s, U.S. policy toward Cuba under Fidel Castro has consisted largely of isolating the communist nation through comprehensive economic sanctions, which have been significantly tightened by the Bush Administration, including restrictions on travel, private humanitarian assistance, and payment terms for U.S. agricultural exports to Cuba. A second component of U.S. policy has consisted of support measures for the Cuban people, including private humanitarian donations and U.S.-sponsored radio and television broadcasting to Cuba. As in past years, the main issue for U.S. policy toward Cuba in the 110th Congress will be how to best support political and economic change in one of the world’s remaining communist nations. Unlike past years, however, Congress is now examining policy toward Cuba in the context of Fidel Castro’s temporary, and potentially permanent, departure from the political scene because of health conditions. Although there has been broad agreement in Congress on the overall objective of U.S. policy toward Cuba — to help bring democracy and respect for human rights to the island — there have been several schools of thought on how best to achieve that objective. Some advocate maximum pressure on the Cuban government until reforms are enacted; others argue for lifting some sanctions that they believe are hurting the Cuban people, or as part of a strategy of lifting sanctions incrementally in response to positive changes in Cuba.

The following study assesses these charges. After establishing a definition of terrorism, it examines U.S.-Cuban relations from 1808 to 1958, arguing that the United States has historically employed violence in its efforts to control Cuba. U.S. leaders maintained this approach even after the Cuban Revolution: months after Fidel Castro‟s guerrilla army took power, Washington began organizing Cuban exiles to carry out terrorist attacks against the island, and continued to support and tolerate such activities until the 1970s, culminating in what was the hemisphere‟s most lethal act of airline terrorism before 9/11.

    Rep. Lemmons II offered the following resolution: House Resolution No. 44. A resolution to memorialize the United States Congress to take steps to deport and extradite the mega-terrorist Luis Posada Carriles to the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela. Whereas, In concert with America's pre-eminent leadership position in the global fight against terrorism, every reasonable effort should be made by all United States governmental entities to respect international law regarding extradition of convicted terrorists; and Whereas, Abu Ghraib abuses, Guantanamo Bay military prison violations, and other recent maltreatments have seriously undermined America's stated commitment to combat terrorism. These almost routine excesses have drawn worldwide attention to the huge variance between America's official anti-terrorist position and the apparent utilization of torture and degradation by military police and prisoner interrogators; and Whereas, To restore American credibility as the champion of human rights, the federal government must take the moral high ground in the Luis Posada Carriles extradition case by adhering to the United States-Venezuela extradition treaty; and Whereas, Seventy-seven-year-old Posada Carriles was convicted of bombing a Cuban civilian airliner in 1976, killing all 74 people onboard. President Hugo Chavez Frias of the Bolivarian Republic of Venezuela and President Fidel Castro of the Republic of Cuba have designated Posada Carriles the top terrorist in the Americas. In fact, Posada Carriles is a vehement anti-Castro militant, whom President Castro publicly accused of leading a plot to assassinate the Cuban leader in Panama in 2000. The Panamanians arrested Posada Carriles carrying 33 pounds of C-4 explosives.

The act also provided $33.7 million for Radio and TV Marti broadcasting to Cuba, and added Cuba to the list of countries requiring a special notification to the Appropriations Committees for funds obligated under the act. The act did not include provisions easing restrictions on U.S. agricultural exports to Cuba that had been included in the House-passed and Senate-committee versions of H.R. 2829, the FY2008 Financial Services and General Government appropriations bill, and in the Senate-committee version of S.

    Luis Posada Carriles: Un engendro incondicional de la CIA Percy Francisco Alvarado G. Percy Francisco Alvarado Godoy (“Fraile”) nació en Escuintla, Guatemala, el 18 de julio de 1954. Se graduó en Ciencias Políticas en la Universidad de La Habana. Es profesor, escritor y periodista, y colabora en diversos sitios alternativos. Miembro del Consejo Editorial de Cubadebate. Trabajó como colaborador secreto de la Seguridad Cubana durante 22 años, enfrentando a grupos terroristas radicados en Miami. Ha publicado Confesiones de Fraile: Una historia real de terrorismo, Reflexiones de un antiterrorista, Cuan- do los dioses se hicieron hombres y De terroristas y Canallas. Ha escrito dos novelas y un poemario en proceso de publicación. Poner al desnudo la actividad terrorista de Luis Posada Carriles se ha convertido en una de sus ta- reas. Conoció a este criminal, quien lo adiestró en el manejo de explosivos para que los colocara, supues- tamente, en el Cabaret habanero Tropicana, con lo cual se pretendía asesinar impunemente a centenares de turista extranjeros. Desde luego, éste y otros tene- brosos planes fueron desarticulados con la ayuda del también conocido Agente “Fraile”. Sus libros y artí- culos de denuncia sobre el terrorismo tienen la fuerza de salir no de la pluma de un simple espectador de los hechos que pone al desnudo, sino de alguien que los vivió directamente y que convivió con los crimi- nales a los que señala con dedo acusador.

Posada is being held at an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) detention center in El Paso, Texas (see NotiCen, 2006-01-26 and NotiSur, 2005-06-10). An immigration judge ordered his release, but the US quickly appealed the decision and the accused terrorist remains locked up while an embarrassed Justice Department decides what to do with him.
