Peter Kornbluh once opined of Carriles, "no doubt that Posada has been one of the world's most unremitting purveyors of terrorist violence"
Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials even stated in a letter to Carriles, "because of your long history of criminal activity and violence in which innocent civilians were killed, your release from detention would pose a danger to both the community and the national security of the United States".
As both Kornbluh and ICE officials opined that, the Alberto Gonzales justice department is allowing one of their judges to release this terrorist into an unsuspecting community in Miami? Carriles is an unrepentant terrorist and ranks right up there with Osama bin Laden. Would we even allow for Osama bin Laden if he were in U.S. custody to be released into any community subject to house arrest wearing an electronic bracelet?
While I hold out little if any hope of justice for those 73 innocent passengers of Cubana flight 455 who have all but been forgotten, I will pass along to you who read this column International Answer’s plea for justice, by going to this link in which they urge all to contact their congressional members demanding his extradition back to Venezuela.
Be the voice of these victims of terrorism.
