Fidel Castro has died
« on: November 26, 2016 - 04:08:29 PM »
Apparently this morning. We were in Cuba this spring and the car tour operator pointed out the fresh pavement in Havana. It was only on the roads that his pal Obama rode on during his visit, the rest looked like they hadn't been freshened since 1959. No tears on my part.  :wave:

            I'm pretty sure the Wizard, RTC and a few others will be going to the funeral with Obama.   :2cents:

                    Me to, and I have many Cuban friends. Hard working, honest people that are rejoicing that he's dead. But beware, The WIZARD will shut this thread down soon.  HE IS THE KING>    :stirpot:

Next...

As I disagree with the easing of sanctions. They as a dictatorship have not improved their stance. Only difference is that the rest of the crap countries have gotten worse around them. So now the perception is "they aren't that bad anymore".

to quote Trump "WRONG"

Removing the warning labels one at a time.
Nature will take care of the rest.

The dictator is dead .. but not the dictatorship.

I am overseas now in Africa.  Watching this on international news feeds ... unbelievable.  BBC, Le Monde, etc ... you'd think they were speaking about Mother Teresa.  How the great revolutionary overthrew Baptista and the oppressive regime ... LOL ... they stop there ... of course ....

Only one guy interview on the Russian news network made comment in first paragraph.
