With an unprecedented media offensive, the National Association of Italy-Cuba Friendship has exhibited 20 billboards in different districts of the Italian capital. The first was opened in Via Cristoforo Colombo, one of the main streets of Rome. The billboards with the faces of Antonio Guerrero, Fernando Gonzalez, Gerardo Hernandez, Ramon Labañino and René González, bear the following inscriptions: "Freedom for the Cuban Five. Fifteen years in prison in the United States for exposing terrorism against Cuba." and also "10 Nobel Prize winners support freedom for the Cuban Five unjustly detained in the U.S. for 15 years." The Italy-Cuba Association will continue the battle to demand the release of the five Cuban antiterrorist fighters until the wall of silence that surrounds this case is brought down. The Italian media and large corporations do not speak about the case of the Five which highlight the Washington government's double standard in the fight against terrorism. In Florida, especially in Miami, there are terrorist organizations financed by the Cuban American National Foundation living under the protective wing of the U.S. Government.
