A letter addressed to President Fidel Castro from one of five Cuban
anti-terrorist fighters unjustly held in US prisons was published on Thursday by the Granma news daily.
In his letter, Rene Gonzalez praises the example of the Cuban leader
that “will continue to inspire countless generations of combatants in
the world when you, us, and our pathetic enemies of today are no longer
around physically.”
“Fifty-five years ago,a humble soldier of honor, convinced that ideas
can not be killed, preserved his life for posterity. Those who today use
their fingers to count the number of consecutive emperors who have been
humiliated by the resistance of our people, will not have enough hair to
count the conquerors, tyrants and imperial servants who will be buried
by your ideas,” Rene’s letter concludes.
Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez, Ramon Labanino, Rene Gonzalez and Gerardo Hernandez – internationally known as the Cuban Five –, have been imprisoned in the United States for more than nine years for
infiltrating anti-Cuba groups in Miami, Florida, that were planning and
carrying out terrorist actions against the island.
