Protest march during Posada trial

US: A protest march aimed to expose Luis Posada Carriles real crimes will be held during his trial on March 1 at El Paso in Texas.

The call took place today at the Free the Five Committee.

The Committee’s press release pays attention to the fact that the defendant, who carried out a terrorist attack on a passenger plane in 1976 near Barbados coast in which 73 people died, is charged only of lying.

The call was made by the Free the Five Committee, ANSWER coalition and other organizations to be held on March 1 at 8:00 am across the street of El Paso Court. According to the information given, the demonstrators will demand the extradition of Posada Carriles to Venezuela to be charged of premeditated murder of 73 people. They will also ask for the liberation of The Five held in US prisons after a Miami Court imposed them excessive sentences for fighting terrorism. Gerardo Hernandez, Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labanino, Rene Gonzales and Antonio Guerrero were imprisoned on September 1998.

They had the mission to stop terrorist activities supported by Washington like the ones held by Posada Carriles. It shows the US hypocrite war to fight terrorism because they are protecting a terrorist in their territory.
