Re: The last photo of Maurice Bishop

When I said I was a 'kid' I didn't mean to claim or even imply that I was literally a child.  Sheesh.  I was merely making the case that I was just a rank and file nobody and certainly not some kind of an operative.  I was a private who did what I was told minute to minute.   I was a peon.

Those of you who know Porgie and Pam's story know they are heroes because and despite all odds; their marriage stayed together despite this terrible chapter added to their stories.  I so admire them, even though Porgie always would ask if I am sure I don't work for the CIA -snort giggle.

You are right, New Historian. RD said that. Gotta study on how to do the quotes in a box.

You should enjoy it along with your friend RD. RD is attracted to espionage and clandestine operations. He's that same guy who loves stories of Americans spying for Cuba. I have read his blog. He's a super, duper weirdo!!

RD, I have no reason to query Coard's claim that he was "shocked" about the massacre at Ft. George. But, it has always been of concern to me that during the trial of Coard and the others who were charged for those atrocities, we did not really get any answers from them. Years later, answers, truth, still need to be laid bare for Grenadians and any others who wish to bring closure to the ugly October 19, 1983 events in Grenada.

  Bernard doh know and also HA doh know.  Dix was no longer in the pic, so who did it ?  BUNCH ah F&*King devils.  If there was hell, ah wish these Bastards burn over and over again.  Now ah would not be surprise that Coard was on the CIA payroll.
