The Colgate Bomb: Cubana Flight 455 & The Posada File
A tiny bomb hidden inside a tube of Colgate toothpaste destroyed Cubana Flight 455, killing everyone on board off the coast of Barbados. Declassified records reveal a dark chapter of Cold War espionage, exposing Luis Posada Carriles’ boasts of plans to hit the Cuban plane. This video uncovers the chilling timeline of covert operations, from Posada’s tenure as a paid CIA agent to the sinister dinner party in Caracas where Orlando Bosch allegedly demanded a bribe to halt violence. We examine the macabre aftermath, including a phone call describing the massacre as a 'bus with 73 dogs' going off a cliff, and the bureaucratic paradox of visas granted to suspected terrorists. Confront the brutal reality of political terrorism and the devastating human cost buried in the Posada File. 0:00 The Toothpaste Bomb 1:33 The Caracas Dinner Party 2:50 The '73 Dogs' Call 3:57 The Visa Paradox Jasmine is a fictional host.
