Award-winning journalist, filmmaker, author, professor Saul Landau has made more than 45 films and written 14 books, many about Cuba. His latest film is "Will the Real Terrorist Please Stand Up," about US support for violent anti-Castro militants. Landau joins Amy Goodman of Democracy Now! to discuss the history of the Cuban Five and US support for a group of anti-Castro militants who have been behind the bombing of Cuban airplanes, the blowing up of hotels and assassinations. Today they are allowed to live freely in the United States.
"What did Cuba do to us?" Landau asks. "Well, the answer, I think, is that they were disobedient," he argues. They nationalized property without the US' permission. America has never forgiven Cuba.
