Like the treatment experienced by Puerto Rican freedom fighters at the hands of U.S. colonialism�s repressive forces for the past century, the murder of Abu Ail Mustafa was an act of the utmost cruelty. Yet, in a cowardly manner, the U.S. puppets of Tel Aviv continue to justify the murder of unarmed Palestinian men, women and children as acts of "self defense." With this recent outrage the U.S.-backed Israeli state intended to break the Palestinian spirit. But this logic shall be proven to be ridiculous, because the will of the Palestinian people has been steeled over a course of time, favorable for them to continue waging their historical struggle for complete national liberation. Despite the U.S. government�s attempt to distance itself from this most recent show of Israeli barbaric behavior, it was Washington, DC�s endorsement of the Israeli occupation of Palestine, demonstrated with arms shipments, funds and political support, that ultimately killed brother Abu Ail Mustafa. The U.S. was very much an accomplice in this crime. These heavily armed helicopter gunships, like the F-16 fighter planes, rocket launchers, missiles and tanks used for killing the Palestinian people, are tested and rehearsed on the Puerto Rican island of Vieques, where a popular struggle is taking place to oust the U.S. military presence. The murder of Abu Ail Mustafa and hundreds of other Palestinian sisters and brothers by Israeli military forces, is yet another consequence of the U.S. military use and occupation of the island of Vieques. Puerto Ricans and all who seek freedom, will surely morn the death of a Palestinian warrior. We will do so by continuing to express our solidarity with the Palestinian cause and by doing everything necessary in our struggle to weaken the position of and do away with U.S. imperialism.
