Double double standards

Maybe you know about Luis Posada Carriles, maybe you don't. He is an anti-Castro activist with an extensive history with the CIA and has been accused of various acts of terrorism including the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner that killed 73 people. While in Venzualian jail awaiting to be put on trial for this crime he escaped and eventually showed up in the US. Where he was arrested for immigration violations and freed on bail.

So a suspected terrorist is found, and let go because, well, we're down with HIS terrorism. Needless to say this isn't going over well with some people and is providing a clear example of the hypocricy of American foreign policy that calls for the invasions of nations based on fears of attacks against "the homeland", but could care less about the daily violence inflicted elsewhere.

Of course it isn't just this that makes the US look like huge assholes, its the site of US reps yelling I HOPE IT'S YOUR FAMILY MEMBERS WHO DIE at other foreign, elected officials who have the adacity to question the legality of black prisons and secret rendition (torture) flights. When/if the next attack happens here, will anyone in the world really care?

I don't know, but I do know that Bush and his wife will climb on top of the burning bodies and remind us all how no one suffers like they do. NO ONE BITCHES!
