There is an update in the case of Luis Posada Carriles, the anti-Castro Cuban militant connected to the 1976 bombing of a Cuban airliner that killed 73. The former CIA operative has been indicted in the United States — but not for carrying out acts of terrorism. He was indicted on one count of naturalization fraud and six counts of making false statements. He snuck into the United States in 2005 and then lied about how he entered the country. The Bush administration has refused to extradite him to Venezuela or Cuba to stand trial for the airline bombing.
