Re: [Marxism] New York Times editorial: "A Single Standard forTerrorists"

["Eli Stephens" <elishastephens@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I hate to be picky, but this statement:

"Nearly perfect New York Times editorial calling on Washington to extradite
Posada Carriles to Venezuela"

missed a rather glaring lie in the editorial. This one:

"Mr. Bush has made a point of his unwavering moral clarity on the issue of
harboring terrorists."

To which I say: bullshit. In August 2004, three of the terrorists who were
caught with C-4 explosive in Panama, on their way to blowing up Fidel Castro
and probably hundreds of Panamanian students, were welcomed into the United
States on a red carpet, as described here:

Unwavering moral clarity? I think not.
