Reuters Amply Earning their Havana Bureau

"Even after moving to Miami, however, Lesnik kept his rebellious streak and he has been the target of violent attacks by anti-Castro hard-liners in the Cuban exile community.

"I've always been very independent. I said the Cuban Revolution had to be carried out without either Washington or Moscow," Lesnik, 77, told Reuters in an interview last week." He (Lesnik) braved bombs dropped by dictator Fulgencio Batista's air force in frequent visits to rebel-held positions in the Escambray mountains during the conflict."

Yes and Hillary "landed in Bosnia ducking sniper fire." In fact when they went on trial, Cuba's pre-Stalinist air-force pilots were originally acquitted by a "revolutionary tribunal" (no less!) because even most of the "rebels" knew the pilots had dropped most of their bombs into the sea rather than atop the rebels....

But hey!.......Perhaps a WANG-BANG!! shoot-em-up! Soderbergh-del Toro Movie is in the works about Lesnick's military exploits! In truth, they probably exceeded Che Guevara's.

More BS here..
