Maybe the $1 million may change the minds of the cash-strapped Cubans.

32 years ago? Why did they wait so long to raise the bounty? It wouldn't surprise me one bit if someone connected with government has the answer and thru the grapevine will reap the new reward.

Critics claim the AMC's [American Muslim Council's] main political activity has been to abolish or prevent passage of antiterrorist legislation. The AMC calls itself an "active member" of the National Coalition to Protect Political Freedom, or NCPPF, which was founded in the 1960s to provide legal support to New Left terrorists in the Weather Underground, the Puerto Rican FALN and the Black Liberation Army,and which national-security specialists say was revived to push for Islamist terrorist causes.--------------"Undermining war on terror : Muslim groups weakening fed laws under guise of protecting civil liberties," World Net Daily, March 10, 2003

1970 : (GREENWICH VILLAGE TOWNHOUSE EXPLOSION- THE 'REVOLUTIONARY UNDERGROUND' WAS USING IT AS A BOMB FACTORY) But the core of the story begins in 1970, when Kathy [Boudin] managed to escape from the explosion of a Greenwich Village townhouse that the Revolutionary Underground was using as a bomb factory.
Boudin has long insisted she just happened to be there at the time. But [Susan] Braudy [in her book "Family Circle: The Boudins and the Aristrocracy of the Left" (Kopf)] shows that, in fact, Kathy was fully involved in the bomb-making plot. Indeed, she undermines Kathy's disingenuous claim to the parole board that "I was never involved in violence directly" during her subsequent 11 years on the lam.
To hear Boudin tell it, she was always simply at the wrong place at the wrong time with the wrong people. Actually, writes Braudy, Boudin was personally involved in at least a dozen bombings across the country - including at the Pentagon, the U.S. Capitol and NYPD headquarters - before the Brinks job. She also rented cars both for bank robberies and for the prison escape of cop-killer Joanne Chesimard. ...
Braudy's most important revelation, however, is showing how Boudin has consistently lied about her role in the Brinks heist - which was undertaken not, as claimed, for political reasons but because BLA leader Doc Shakur needed money to pay his mortgage and buy cocaine.
Those lies continued before the state parole board. Of her life in the underground, Boudin claimed: "My work was not doing violent work, but organizing conferences and educating people." Of the Brinks robber-killers, she said, "I had no idea who the people were."
Both demonstrable lies. --------------- "KATHY BOUDIN'S LIES," by Eris Fettmann, New York Post, October 30, 2003

"Escaping to Cuba" is probably about like "escaping to Sing Sing". I say let her rot where she is.
