You remember that! I think it was in 1990 that Miami was bombarded by Radio Havana broadcasts as Castro blustered that “we are not a nuclear power, but we are a radio power!!”

Suddenly, though, things got real quiet. I’ve always theorized that the threat was not to bomb Castro’s broadcast transmitters (filled with human shields) but rather his jamming transmitters that were keeping Radio Marti from being heard. Letting the truth get through to Cuba would have been a far greater threat to the Cuban thug dictator.

Anyway, any international organization with the words “World” or “Union” in its title can go boink itself, IMHO.

Weren't there stories that the Iranians were using Cuba to jam anti-IRI regime broadcasts that was affecting US domestic stuff?

Perhaps the Iranian operation is the one really causing problems?
