6. Gross not so innocent

Look at the AP story I cited. Gross was bringing BGANS satellite transceivers that create a wifi zone which anyone could use to send encrypted e-mail. On his last trip he had SIM cards that hide the location of the transmission and are normally only available to the military and intelligence agencies. He received $600,000 for this project.

Gross is not a professional intelligence agent like the Cuban 5 but he was engaged in US government funded illegal covert action.

I think the Cubans should let him visit his mother but it would sure help if the US government publicly agreed that he was going to return to Cuba after ten days.
