S.B. Journalist in Court

She's an established, successful journalist. She should not have to take the stand.
And its pretty common knowledge that if you're being interviewed, you're being recorded.

When they said "anti-Castro militant" I thought they were talking about me! :) henry

Despite Castro, Cuba has had some awesome international and Olympic volleyball teams - love watching them pound the ball!

Hank,
The only difference between you and other “Anti-Castro Militants”, as you so eloquently stated to your US Immigration officer, had you had a clear shot Fidel wouldn’t still be around today.

CmanSB, don't talk what you don't know. I'm cuban and I lived inside the monster; nobody can tell me stories, not even Bardach who is considered a "communist" because of her close contact with "charming" Fidel and her way of defending him always. If you want to be informed and to learn the truth, you better read "La Ficcion Fidel" by Zoe Valdes.

Tu eres Cubano tambien? De que parte? Yo, Reparto Naranajo, Havana, El Sevillano. Ah man, there's more of us everytime I open my eyes!
Actually, the comment Cman mentions is 1 I made to the INS (now USCIS) agent interviewing me w/ regards to 'the only metal I'd give Castro." :) henry

Ya conozco un Henry, si eres el mismo, te sorprenderas cuando veas quien soy. Saludos! aqui estare siempre tirandole a cuanto castrista se me pare delante. Read the post from BaracuteyCubano about Bardach's trip to the court, it was very bad for her he he he.

she has traveled more than 13 times to Cuba and she meet with Fidel several times. The best part is when the lawyer displayed her picture with Fidel, too close to him. Not the best person to testify considering her strong relation with the dictator.

She's done nothing wrong. And she shouldn't be forced into testifying to begin with.

And she's not a Communist. What is this, McCarthy witch hunt. My next post will be in Farsi so only a limited number of people can read it.

EZK, you are right, she should not be forced to testify; but since that already happened, her testimonial should not be taken too seriously, considering her long history of supporting Fidel. About the spanish comments, there is always google translator, or just do not read it.

I am such a fan of Annie's work.
I honor her bravery.
Keep on...keepin' on sister!

The Sober Spitbath

Just because she's interviewed someone doesn't mean she supports them! Hell, just because I might like someone doesn't mean I support their every effort! Do you?!
Geraldo interviewed Manson, does that make him a follower?

Furthermore, this being an English language news site, with an article in English; if the writer has problems with English how were they able to read it to begin with? Yet it was too tough to comment in English? The Spanish reply wasn't out of inability to understand English but an arrogant attempt to slander and attack under the guise of a foreign language.

EZK, calmate los nervios, estas sonando como un paranoico :) henry (err, enrique)

Wow this reminds me of something I saw just the other day at a big political rally downtown. I think the protesters were demanding higher wages and social justice, but they were chanting in Spanish so I didn't catch everything. Suddenly from across the street, an angry, loud, counter-demonstrator started berating the protesters, yelling "is it too tough to comment in English" and "stop your arrogant attacks under the guise of a foreign language."

EZK, let me help you here a little bit. I know it is frustrating when you can not understand something because you don't speak the language. It happened to me many years ago when I came to live to your country. Henry and I just exchanged a few words in Spanish, non related with the post. The ones related with the post, we commented in English as you can read above.
About Bardach, she traveled 13 times to Cuba; not only she interviewed Fidel, but she was very close to him. I will translate here part of the post I mentioned above so you can understand. Lets be clear that I'm not defending Posada Carriles, I'm just pointing out how Bardach is not a reliable witness considering her close relationship with the cuban dictator.

Translation:
"Under heavy and prolonged interrogation of Bardach, she was forced to admit that she has traveled to Cuba in thirteen different occasions and she has met several times with Fidel Castro.

The highlight was when the lawyer asked Hernandez whether she was aware that Fidel Castro would not let anyone touch him, and she said, "Yes, I know". If she was aware that not even his closest friends could get close to him; and she admitted that she knew that perfectly fine. Another question: if she knew about Fidel Castro's close relationship with the Colombian writer Gabriel García Márquez, and how not event the "Gabo" will be allowed to embrace Fidel Castro, the U.S. journalist admitted, "Yes I am aware of that." At that instant, Posada's lawyer, took a photo and showed it to the witness, as he said: "How can you explain this picture?". Ann Louise Bardach was intensely pale, surprised. The lawyer then asked the judge permission to show the picture to the jury. The judge quickly replied, "only after I see it and approve it."

When the judge saw the photo, she gave the lawyer permission to be shown to the jury. One could see the surprise on the faces of the jurors. The picture showed Ann Louise Bardach, tightly around FIDEL CASTRO.

Independent observers felt that after two days of testimony from Bardach, the defense won a tremendous victory after showing the close relationship of the witness with the tyrant of Cuba."

Actually I do know the language but object to its use here to further bloat egos and delusions of grandeur, and "victory in Cuba."
And none of the above mentioned makes her a Communist. In fact she is quite a Capitalist!

EZK, you really need to review your Spanish because you are completely lost. Your previous post is all wrong. I should not be wasting my time answering to you. I deal with people like you every day and it is not worth my energies. Just educate yourself a little bit before posting non-sense comments. No seas paranoico, calmate los nervios he he he!

You need to educate yourself before calling people names you obviously know nothing about, i.e. Ms. Bardach. Are you just jealous because she is successful in her profession while all you can do is rant and rave and bluster on a news site?

EZK (684 comments posted in this web site) vs localsb (7 comments, with 5 out of 7 just replies to yours).
Who is the bluster of this News site? you better find better arguments to express yourself than talking something you know nothing about.

EZK just got owned. Viva Cuba Libre! :) henry

And to think it was only last month that EZK and his super-sized ego was claiming that HE owned every debate due to his superior intellect, and vast knowledge of history and civics.

And I still own this one, despite the attempt at destruction by stampede of ignorance. How many of you write for Vanity Fair and Rolling Stone? How many books have you fools written and have actually had published? None of you can hold a candle to Ms.Bardach or her work. Have fun wallowing in your filth.
And Scooter, thanks for demonstrating your own inferiority.
Me "owned" ha! The day pigs own me hell will freeze over.

And how can you condone terrorist attacks by anyone?
