Luis Posada has been released on bail by the 5th Circuit Court of Appeals, despite his being wanted in both Cuba and Venezuela. They call him a terrorist. Cuban exiles in Miami call him a freedom fighter. A Bay of Pigs veteran who served time for trying to kill Fidel Castro, the 79-year former CIA operative has boasted of deadly bombings in Havana hotels and allegedly masterminded the bombing of a Cuban airplane that killed 73 people. American Customs and the Justice Department wanted him held for immigration violations. Oscar Corral reports for the Miami Herald.
