A prominent Republican lawmaker is coming under criticism for apparently endorsing the assassination of Cuban President Fidel Castro. A new documentary called “638 Ways to Kill Castro” features a brief interview with Florida Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen.

Rep. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen: “I welcome the opportunity of having anyone assassinate Fidel Castro and any leader who is oppressing the people.”

Ileana Ros-Lehtinen was recently tapped to become the top Republican on the House International Relations Committee. She accused the filmmakers of splicing together her words, but she admitted to the Miami Herald that she can’t rule out that she ever mentioned Castro and a potential assassination. Ros-Lehtinen said, “If someone were to do it, I wouldn’t be crying.”
