JUDICIAL WATCH DEMANDS RECORDS OF COMMUNICATION BETWEEN FLORIDA GOVERNOR JEB BUSH AND HIS BROTHER, THE PRESIDENT, REGARDING CUBA
Public Record Request Seeks to Unravel Mystery Behind Contradictory U.S. Policy Toward Terrorist Nation
(Miami, FL) Judicial Watch, the public interest group that investigates and prosecutes government corruption and abuse, has filed a Florida Public Records Act Request to obtain communications between Governor Jeb Bush and The White House on all matters relating to Cuba.
The action was taken in an effort to explain the bizarre U.S. policy toward Cuba, a country that has long appeared on the U.S. State Department list of terrorist nations. The Bush Brothers have long talked about strengthening restrictions on Cuba, yet both have looked the other way as U.S. agribusiness corporations, many of them big campaign contributors, sell millions of dollars worth of food to Communist Dictator and terrorist Fidel Castro. This includes an unprecedented food exhibition–with nearly 300 American companies participating–in Havana this week.
President Bush has also talked extensively about eliminating terrorism without ever bothering to mention Castro, the world’s oldest living terrorist, who has killed many more innocents than Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden combined. Castro has for years collaborated with the world’s deadliest terrorists and has admitted harboring more than 50 dangerous fugitives on the FBI’s “Most Wanted List.” In 1996, he ordered the shoot down of two unarmed planes from a Miami-based humanitarian group as they flew over international waters. Four men were murdered, three of them American citizens, yet no action has been taken by any U.S. administration.
“It doesn’t make sense that the U.S. has this extremely dangerous terrorist, armed with biological weapons, only 90 miles away and this administration does nothing. We want to find out why the Bush Brothers have failed to take action.” said Judicial Watch Chairman and General Counsel Larry Klayman.
