Story Behind The Book

TRAICIÓN: Clinton, Castro y Los Cinco Cubanos es la versión en castellano de BETRAYAL: Clinton, Castro & The Cuban Five. Sus autores Matt Lawrence y Thomas Van Hare fueron aviadores que volaron en las misiones junto a los Hermanos al Rescate. La traducción fue realizada por Diego Rodriguez de Tranlanguage Inc. en Miami, Florida. El 24 de febrero de 1996, dos avionetas civiles estadounidenses que volaban en una misión de rescate en espacio aéreo internacional cerca de Cuba fueron derribadas por aviones de combate MiG. En este hecho perdieron la vida cuatro norteamericanos, tres de ellos ciudadanos estadounidenses. TRAICIÓN relata los hechos y explica cómo ciertas políticas secretas, negociaciones fracasadas y una “falla” en las comunicaciones del NORAD permitieron a Cuba perpetrar este asesinato. Traición revela que: • Las avionetas derribadas nunca estuvieron en espacio aéreo cubano y que el derribamiento fue planeado y ensayado con anticipación bajo la observación atenta de los radares estadounidenses. • El gobierno de los Estados Unidos estaba profundamente penetrado por espías cubanos que manipularon la opinión pública y las políticas en beneficio de Fidel Castro. • Los aviones de combate F-15 de las Fuerzas Armadas de los Estados Unidos podrían haber intervenido, pero no lo hicieron, aún cuando los MiGs cubanos persiguieron a una de las avionetas hasta cerca de Key West. • Ciertos documentos divulgados por el gobierno revelan el conocimiento previo por parte de funcionarios de la administración Clinton, como Sandy Berger, el gobernador Bill Richardson y el asesor principal Richard Nuccio. • Ciertos espías cubanos que hoy se encuentran en prisión, como los Cinco Cubanos, participaron en el plan de derribamiento. Ellos son el tema principal de la actual negociación diplomática entre Cuba y la administración Obama.
