BREAKING | Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro Dead At 90

FIDEL CASTRO WITH BARBARA WALTERS 2002

The death of Communist dictator Fidel Castro was announced on Cuban state-run television by his brother, current leader Raul Castro. Fidel Castro was 90 years old.

Barbara Walters interviews Fidel Castro from Havana -- 25 years after her first interview with the Cuban leader. Castro, 76 at the time of this interview, outlasted ten US presidents. He tells Barbara Walters that Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev lied to both President John F. Kennedy and Cuba, heightening the Cuban Missile Crisis.

He also was a ruthless dictator, the Maximum Leader who reneged on his promise of free elections, executed thousands of opponents, imprisoned tens of thousands, installed a Communist regime and made his island a pawn in the Cold War. His alliance with the Soviet Union brought the world to the brink of nuclear war in 1962.

Trudeau, Jimmy Carter and Obama statements show enduring liberal fondness for totalitarian Communist dictatorship. Not surprising.

Castro’s greatest ploy was luring a New York Times correspondent named Herbert Matthews to his mountain camp. Though the rebels had barely 20 bedraggled men, Castro marched the same group past Matthews several times and also staged the arrival of “messengers” reporting the movement of other (nonexistent) units.

Matthews, convinced Castro controlled a huge army, wrote: “From the look of things, General Batista cannot possibly hope to suppress the Castro revolt.” A wave of favorable coverage followed in the foreign press, and with it, international support.

My Cousin's husband is Cuban. His parents literally fled for their lives taking with them the clothes on their backs and what they could carry. They made it to the States and started a family up here in Baltimore. They NEVER saw their families after that fateful decision. Some they never heard from again. The press never talks about how many were disappeared, their homes and property taken from them forcefully etc etc. Fucking horrific stuff.

Castro murdered thousands and imprisoned tens of thousands.

This is the ultimate obituary...

America managed to "extend freindship" to COMMUNIST USSR and COMMUNIST China, but refused to speak to COMMUNIST Cuba. Why? Because Castro took away the Brothels, Casinos, and drug trade of the Jewish Crime Syndicates.

Excellent article in the Miami Herald.

See the Irony, Trump is Elected ad ole Fidel is Dead. Poor Obama, all his idols including Che are gone!

I was discusted when Clinton returned Elian to Cuba. It was a crushing event for Cuban Americans and no doubt remembered by the number of Cuban Americans who voted for Trump.

They have long memories, those Cubans.
