I just heard this on CNN. Apparently, the Cuban government has arrested an alleged terrorist for several hotel bombings. They clain he was hired by Anti-Castro forces in the US. Now, for the relavant part for the list;
Ah, but he is not a "terrorist," then. Being hired by anti-Castro forces in the United States automatically makes him a "freedom fighter." He's only a terrorist if he works for Oceania, er, Eastasia, er, whomever we don't currently like.
Had he blown up a Cuban airliner, as CIA-supported forces did a while back, he would still be a freedom fighter. Had he sent a package of pamphlets to Hamas to aid in their struggle against the Zionist occupiers, he would be a terrorist.
Had he said, "Nuke Havana.", he would be a freedom fighter. Had he said, "Nuke D.C.", he would be a Freeh->Dumb Fighter. TruthMonger
