New CIA Files Show Miami's Most Infamous Cuban Terrorist Was a Snitch
By Tim Elfrink in News

Last week, Riptide was all about Eduardo Arocena, the Miami dockworker convicted in 1985 of setting off 32 bombs in Little Havana and Manhattan. A certain mayoral candidate (ahem, Tomas Regalado, ahem) seems to have flirted with supporting Arocena back in the day, not that he'll admit it.

​We noted how strange it was for Regalado to run away from the Arocena issue in a town that still harbors noted Cuban terrorists such as Orlando Bosch and Luis Posada Carriles.

Posada, if you're unfamiliar with your violent anti-Castro types, has been convicted in absentia of bombing a jetliner in 1976 that killed 73 Cubans. He's also admitted to planning a series of bombings around Havana in 1997, and was briefly jailed on a plot to assassinate the bearded one in Panama in 2000.

Seems like a pretty bad dude, right? Well, a whole new side of Posada emerged this morning thanks to a recently declassified ream of CIA documents.
