(NEWS) Che Guevara's Daughter Pays Tribute To Founder Of Hezbollah Terror

"Dr. Aleida Guevara, daughter of Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara and his second wife, recently met with leaders of the Hizbullah terrorist organization in Lebanon and expressed support for their activities. These have included launching deadly missiles into Israeli terroritory in advance of the Israeli military 'Cast Lead' invasion of the Gaza strip in 2008.

During her visit, which was reported by Al-Manar TV on October 12, Guevara laid a wreath on the tomb of Hizbullah leader Abbas Al-Musawi and said: '...as long as the memory [of the martyrs] remains within us, we will have more strength.' Later, while visiting Baalbek, she said: 'If we do not conduct resistance, we will disappear from the face of the earth.'

Aleida, the eldest daughter of Che Guevara, is, like her father, a Marxist. She has worked as a physician in Angola, Ecuador, and Nicaragua, and now works at a children's hospital in Havana, Cuba." (source)



(BLOG) 'Cuban Pilots Flew 150,000 Jews From Arab States To Israel'

"Report: From 1951-1953, Cuban company set up by Cuban businessman and Israeli flew missions where Israeli planes could not.

In the first years of the state, Cuban planes and pilots brought nearly 150,000 Jews to Israel from Iraq, Iran, Yemen and India, the official Cuban newspaper Juventude Rebelde (Rebel Youth) reported on Saturday. Unreported for 60 years, the airlift was one of the largest in history.

In the years after Israel declared independence, Jews in Arab countries began emigrating to Israel as their lives became more difficult. However, due to the lack of cooperation by the Arab governments, traveling by land was very difficult. Since there were no diplomatic relations between Israel and the Arab countries, it was necessary for the aircraft to be from a neutral country, according to the Juvente Rebelde report."
