Bob Menendez targeted by Cuban intelligence

This surprises nobody familiar with Cuba's modus operandi but it's interesting nonetheless.

A former undercover FBI agent says in a new book that Cuban officials asked him to spy on Cuban-Americans including Sen. Bob Menendez and a Cliffside Park businessman.

Cuban diplomats in Washington, D.C., were obsessed with generating scandalous information about Menendez and two other Cuban-Americans in Congress, said Robert Eringer, the author of “Ruse: Undercover with FBI Counterintelligence.” They blamed Menendez, then in Congress, and his two colleagues for tough U.S. policies against Cuba, he said in an interview on Friday.

Remember that when you step into the voting booth this November. Also remember who the mouthpieces for the regime are backing in those elections.

Also consider how many times you've heard the argument that the embargo is cold war relic and then read this:

“For Cuba, the Cold War has not ended — it always continued with the United States,” said Eringer, who added he was promised exclusive business opportunities in Cuba as a bribe.

The cold war rages on with regards to Cuba whether you want to believe it or not. I don't know how many spies the government needs to uncover to prove it.

The "two other Cuban-Americans in Congress" referred to in the piece are Lincoln Diaz-Balart and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen. The piece also mentions CANF but not Joe Garcia.

I posted a link on an earlier post here regarding Cuba stepping up their intelligence internationally. It's on the Fox News website, and search under '"Cuba intelligence"

I don't like Joe, but what does that have to do with the FACT that the article doesn't talk about Joe? You know that Lesnik and Aruca and others on the side of the regime want the Diaz-Balarts out of office. It's not because Joe is a commie, it's because he's a come mierda.
