"Has McCain ever thought about the anti-terrorist Five Cuban Heroes who were imprisoned in solitary cells just like the ones he says he hates, forced to appear before a jury from Little Havana for crimes they never committed, with three of them sentenced to one and even two life sentences, and the others to 19 and 15 years in prison? Does he know that the United States authorities received information that could prevent death by terrorism of U.S. citizens?
"Condoleezza Rice herself would have to answer some questions: How many Americans have been killed by bombs sent by Cuba? Has even one single brick ever been broken because of an explosive device coming from our country? Why are we being included in the grotesque list of terrorist countries, the same one on which Venezuela’s inclusion is being arbitrarily threatened?
“Imperialism, capitalism, fascism, neocolonialism, racism, man’s brutal exploitation of man in all its forms and manifestations, is approaching its end in humanity’s history, and their maddened lackeys know it; that is why their reactions are ever more desperate, more hysterical, more cynical, more impotent. Only that can explain such repugnant and absurd crimes as the one in Barbados.”.
“The CIA participated directly in the destruction of the Cubana Airlines plane in Barbados.The must repugnant aspect of this case is the use of mercenaries who, for money, are capable of cutting off in a few seconds the precious lives of 73 defenseless persons, people who had been their fellow passengers in the plane a few minutes earlier”.
“We cannot say that the pain is shared. The pain multiplies. Today millions of Cubans weep alongside the loved ones of the victims of that abominable crime. And when an energetic and virile people weep, injustice trembles!”
"Our brothers and sisters who died in Barbados are no longer only our martyrs, they are also symbols in the struggle against terrorism. They rise today like giants in this historic battle for the eradication of terrorism from Earth..."
"The Revolution has taught us all the idea of human fraternity and solidarity. It has made us all the most profound brothers among whom the blood of one belongs to all and the blood of all belongs to each of the others".
“What could never be imagined by those who commit big crimes against peoples in the middle of their euphoria over their impunity and ephemeral power, is that the truth, sooner or later, makes its way through. So has it been for those who crucified Christ for conveying a message of love and solidarity to the poor and oppressed of Rome, two thousand years ago, and even for those who kept Nelson Mandela behind bars during 27 years for fighting the hideous Apartheid regime in the middle of the 20th century.”
