Angry Cuba after the release of Posada

Cuba's government has blamed the White House for the release of Luis Posada, an anti-Castro exile wanted in the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner. Venezuela and Cuba both accuse Posada of violent crimes which he denies. Cuba's government has again implied that Washington has a double standard on terrorism. At a protest on Thursday, university communist youth leader Silviano Merced said, "For that reason, Mr. Bush... you are as much of a terrorist as Posada Carriles and his accomplices."
