Who’s paying for this?
So the Cuban Five, the passel of malevolent castroite agents convicted in Atlanta for espionage against U.S. citizens who happen to live in Miami, are now getting yet another court appeal on Monday, this time claiming the prosecution was brimming with errors. They had no such objections when the trial was going on. They only do now that their trump card strategy, which was to use slander against the Miami Cuban community as their get-out-of-jail-free-card, failed miserably. They are a real piece of work.
This time they're claiming that the prosecution used big photos of fidel castro with an organizational chart of Cuba's spy agency to unjustly sway the jury against these sweet little daisies. They actually intend to persuade a jury that castro had nothing to do with the spying they were doing and they just moseyed on in from Havana on their own, no connections to castro you see, and just happened to have the radio transmitters and wedding rings to transmit all the ill gotten information back to Havana. But it had nothing to do with castro.
Sure it's pathetic. Will an Atlanta jury be that dumb? This must be their tenth appeal on procedural grounds. Who's paying for these appeals if these five spies were just sauntering around South Florida on their own and had nothing to do with castro?
The whole thing is disgusting. Pack them off to jail forever. Be nice if they get entombed in the Supermax on the same day their bearded beast hero heads for hell.
Meh, CAIR is trying to appeal its unindicted co-conspirator status despite its financials putting it dead to rights in the middle of radical Islamist funding. Hell, you should see some of the wackass name changes people go to court to get.
Twenty years ago, leftist attorney Leonard Weinglass defended the Puerto Rican terrorist Macheteros. They were all convicted and Weinglass lost their appeals. He defended one of the five Cuban spies and is now handling his appeal. Weinglass already lost one appeal. It is obvious that he will also lose this next appeal. I wonder why the Castro regime keeps hiring these incompetent "showboat" attorneys to defend their underlings.

Probably because these are the only attorneys willing to work for them. Notice they are usually "activist" attorneys who take on cases more for show than dough. The dough comes later in speaking tours and books. And that's good for them because I can't imagine that castro is forking over big money to them.
Why are they getting a pass on the usual - and rightful - fate reserved for spies? Execution. The nazi spies who landed in Florida in 1942, with a couple of exceptions, were not spared that punishment. Don't tell me there is a difference because the US was at war with Germany - who had declared war first in any case - at the time. As far as it goes, castro has been at war with the US since he declared his intention to make war on this country in the 1958 letter from the Sierra Maestra.
If they insist on a retrial, let us insist the Federal prosecutor seek the death penalty for all of them.
you institute the death penalty that makes you no better than the cretins in havana.
better to have them rot in an american prison.
it says a lot that even scumbags like this get due process and a fair trial; something unheard of where they come from.
