How does international terrorism threatens my travel to Cuba
I m seriously concerned about my future travel to Cuba.
After my first two visits I ve felt that Cuba is the most secure country in Latin America (that I ve visited so far).
This night everything changed. I went, like almost all wednesday to the free movie theater provided by the Videoteca del Sur.
The Movie today: Historia de un hombre: Phillip Agee |1|
Philip Burnett Franklin Agee (July 19, 1935 – January 7, 2008) was a Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) case officer and writer, best known as author of the 1975 book, Inside the Company: CIA Diary, detailing his experiences in the CIA. Agee joined the CIA in 1957, and over the following decade had postings in Washington, D.C., Ecuador, Uruguay, and Mexico. After resigning from the Agency in 1968, he became a leading opponent of CIA practices. He died in Cuba in January 2008.

This guy tells you in half an hour why you should be afraid to go to Cuba. There are several organisations who are training terrorists in Florida (USA) in terrorist activities against Cuba. Proudly supported by the CIA. In history these guys have blown up hotels, airplanes and corner shops in Cuba. Some of them were arrested in Venezuela and Panama for terrorist activities. Since the cuban recolution 3500 Cubans died in consequences of these terrorist activities. 2000 cubans are disabled for livetime.
So I m seriously concerned about these people. I m going to Cuba to relax, dance, play music and dive into a social experiment.
I really hope the USA will successfully win there self-declared War on Terror.
I m just a bit confused about this “War on Terror” because Wikipedia tells me that:
The War on Terrorism (also known as the War on Terror) is the common term for the various military, political and legal actions initiated by the United States government, stated to be a response to the September 11, 2001 attacks.
On the other hand the list of “acts of state terrorism, as well as funding, training, and harboring individuals and groups who engage in terrorism” the USA have been involved in the past ist quite long if you can trust this article on Wikipedia.
Who is fighting against whom here? Why don t we all let others do what they and the people in their country think is the best for them?

Surprise, surprise. The United States government and CIA in particular harboring and abetting terrorists? Actually it’s pretty common-place. We have a long list of despots that have been on our payroll. Noriega in Panama, the Mujahadeen in Afghanistan, Saddam in Iraq, Northern Alliance in Afghanistan, Musharraf in Pakistan… The list goes on and on.
Alpha 66 might be particularly interesting to you. They are on of the Cuban terrorist groups. They are openly militaristic and their leader lives in Hollywood, Florida without a worry of being arrested in the world. A real, live, terrorist leader, sanctioned by my government, living and operating in my country. We’re in such a mess.
