Night after night, Fidel Castro has been on television demanding the United States arrest a Cuban exile sought in an airliner bombing that killed 73 people three decades ago.
The Cuban leader takes his campaign to the streets on Tuesday for a protest march expected to be the biggest since the Elian Gonzalez case roused the nation.
Speaking for up to four hours at a time, Castro thunders with indignation and laughs at the absurd as he reads the news before a live audience of Communist officials — occasionally pausing to flip through a scattering of papers in front of him hunting for a quotation.
Increasingly the focus is on his longtime foe Luis Posada Carriles, who is sought in Venezuela on charges of helping bomb a Cuban airliner in 1976.
Posada, a Cuban exile who was once a senior officer of the Venezuelan intelligence service, denies involvement in the bombing.
