  • Ex-Spy Says She Drove to Dallas with Oswald & Kennedy 'Assassin
    Ex-Spy Says She Drove To Dallas With Oswald & Kennedy 'Assassin Squad' By PAUL MESKIL A former spy says that she accompanied Lee Harvey Oswald and an "assassin squad" to Dallas a few days before President Kennedy was murdered there Nov. 22, 1963. The House Assassinations Committee is investigating her story. Marita Lorenz, former undercov- er operative for the CIA and FBI, told The News that her companions on the car trip from Miami to Dallas were Os. wald, CIA contract agent Frank Sturgis, Cuban exile leaders Orlando Bosch and Pedro Diaz Lanz, and two Cuban broth- ers whose names she does not know. She said they were all members of Operation 40, a secret guerrilla group originally formed by the CIA in 1960 in preparation for the Bay of Pigs inva- sion. Statements she made to The News and to a federal agent were reported to Robert Blakey, chief counsel of the Assassinations Committee. He has as- signed one of his top investigators to interview her. Ms. Lorenz described Operation 40 as an ''assassination squad" consisting of about 30 anti-Castro Cubans and their American advisers. She claimed the group conspired to kill Cuban Premier Fidel Castro and President Kennedy, whom it blamed for the Bay of Pigs fiasco. Admitted Taking Part Sturgis admitted in an interview two years ago that he took part in Opera- Maritza Lorenz tion 40.

DOUGLAS B.A., University of Victoria, 2005 Supervisory Committee Dr. Jason Colby (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe (Department of History) Departmental Member Dr. Jordan Stanger-Ross (Department of History) Departmental Member Dr. Michelle Bonner (Department of Political Science) Outside Member ii Supervisory Committee Dr. Jason Colby (Department of History) Supervisor Dr. Perry Biddiscombe (Department of History) Departmental Member Dr. Jordan Stanger-Ross (Department of History) Departmental Member Dr. Michelle Bonner (Department of Political Science) Outside Member Abstract Despite being the global leader in the “war on terror,” the United States has been accused of sponsoring terrorism against 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.

    Gamelan (Music for a Shadow Play) By Lawrence R. Tirino ©2013 To the good people who have been led astray by madmen, and especially to those who have suffered as a result. 1.Death in the Afternoon Chucha de tu madre! Que bestia!¨ Louis grumbled under his breath as he listened to the men on red scooters visiting all the small shopkeepers. ¨Chulqueros! ¨ He spat into the gutter. ¨Todo el pueblo anda chiro; ¨ - meaning of course that everyone‟s pockets held lint, or dust, or assorted garbage, but none of them held any money. They can‟t get credit cards, and banks won‟t lend them the small amounts that they needed to keep their business running, so they look for one of the countless street shysters that sit drinking coffee at beachfront restaurants in the afternoons when the sun has mellowed. These merchant bankers are the survivors who fled the brutality of their own countries; and although they now wear fine leather shoes and silk shits, the scent of decadence still clings to their pores. Last year they were charging twenty per cent of the principle on the first of the month. Nervous shopkeepers were easily confused into believing that they were paying the same rates as banks. Now it was even easier; a few dollars every day. But all the borrower ever pays is interest. One day the victim wakes up and realizes their mistake; and then they fold and disappear into the nighttime air. Or perhaps the back page of the morning paper. Sunday, the saddest day.

Now, one alleged mastermind lives freely in Miami, while another awaits trial on other charges in Texas.

Despite such links, these same Cubans were tapped to work in the Reagan administration's contra resupply operation.

  • Lieberman's Cuban Money-Bags Linked to Terrorism
    Click here for Full Issue of EIR Volume 33, Number 44, November 3, 2006 Lieberman’s Cuban Money-Bags Linked To Terrorism As of Oct. 24, 2006, Luis Posada Carriles, deputy to CIA “black ops” specialist Felix Rodriquez in the infamous Ollie North/George H.W. Bush “secret government,” is on his way to being a free man. Convicted in Venezuela for crimes related to the terrorist blowing up—in midair—of a Cuban passenger plane in 1976, which killed 73 people, Posada then escaped in 1985, through the work of Felix Rodriguez, with bribe money provided by Joe Lieberman’s Florida money-bags, Jorge Mas Canosa. Around March 2005, Posada snuck into Luis Posada Carriles, convicted in Venezuela for terrorism, in the United States, and was later incarcerated for immigration blowing up a plane, killing 73 people, escaped thanks to bribe violations. A recent court decision in Texas says that Posada money provided by Joe Lieberman’s Florida money-bags, Jorge Mas Canosa. Now, the Bush Administration is refusing to extradite should be released. But the Bush Administration refuses to him to Venezuela. So much for the “war on terrorism.” extradite him to Venezuela, or to try him for the Cuban air- liner attack. It is a clear double standard. The Bush Administration protects its own terrorists, while threatening any nation with military attack that it accuses of tured and executed Ernesto “Che” Guevara on Oct. 9, 1967; “harboring terrorists” he later ran the Contra resupply operation in El Salvador in The week of Oct. 23, investigative reporter, Ann Louis the 1980s, to overthrow the Nicaraguan government on behalf Bardach, author of Cuba Confidential, told radio interviewer of Vice President George H.W.
