	I, for one, found the article interesting and informative.  A public
	statement of this form is not meaningless, as the Cuban government would
	lose face if it did not act in accordance with what it said.  If the
	Cubans had supported the coup, they would probably have said nothing.
	Being smarter than the American government, they know that murder will
	out.
	
	

Huh?  How can you regard "disinformation" as interesting and informative.
A putlic statement of that sort is most certainly informative, but
it informs the public of the value of the information source,
nothing else.  "If the Cubans had supported the coup"???  
That's not even in dispute any more, except in circles
who have ideology to burn, and no interest (for whatever reason)
in facts.

Enough.  Why print lies?  Why accord them the name of truth?
Why trust any other government more than you trust the one
you've got?  At least this one doesn't starve it's political
activists to death.  (Like Cuba does.  Then again, the USSR freezes
them or drugs them, ...)
