The Cuban Five political prisoners, who have already served seven and a half years in U.S. prisons, due to their unjust convictions and sentences, had their appeals heard in oral arguments before an "en banc" hearing, in the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals, on February 14. Weinglass will address the legal issues in the appellate case.
 
The year 2006 will be crucial in the legal and political battle to win freedom for these five men. Gerardo Hernández, Antonio Guerrero, Ramón Labañino, Fernando González, and René González are anti-terrorists activists who were stopping terrorists from carrying out attacks on the island of Cuba.
