Cuban militant to seek U.S. asylum
http://www.miami.com/mld/miamiherald/news/local/11320351.htm

Luis Posada Carriles, the elusive Cuban exile militant who secretly slipped into South Florida last month, will file applications for asylum and parole in Miami by early next week, his immigration lawyer said Tuesday.

-

Posada has been accused of blowing up a Cuban airliner in 1976 and trying to kill Cuban leader Fidel Castro in 2000. He also has been linked to a string of bombings against several Havana hotels and restaurants in 1997.

The purpose of the watch list alert was to make sure that U.S. immigration inspectors would stop Posada if he tried to enter the country through a designated port of entry.

If Posada's applications for either asylum or parole are granted, he would be entitled to apply for a green card, which allows him to work legally, live permanently in the United States and apply for citizenship.

Our terrorists are freedom fighters. OK. :puke:


Here's a little background on Posada (and Bosch).
