Others call him the “Osama bin Laden of the Americas.” Luis Posada Carriles, a Cuban-exile and former CIA operative, is among the most infamous alleged terrorists in our hemisphere, yet was released from an American prison last week. Join Kojo for a look at Posada’s case and why it’s such a political hot potato for the Bush administration.
