    Eisenhower called castro the 'abraham lincon' of the carribean.

    supposedly the CIA were going to use castro as the 'opposition' to overthrow bastita, then castro flipped and became a communist.

    one tyrant was substituted for another, castro killed and persecuted hundreds of thousands of Cubans and put gays and blacks in labor camps.

    What's your point Che? If Hitler died today he would have more at his funeral.

    The million man march 1995, where black men showed up to pledge support to Louis Farrakhan, a well known anti-semite. Not because they believed what he was preaching, but because he sold them on being black.

    Cant believe the legend is dead, i thought of the man as indestructble, just shows where all human at the end of the day. Let the legend live on, Him and Che where real life Solid Snakes hardcore to the fuking bone. These are what real people should inspire to be. Yet in our schools we have pictures of the fuking queen and tony blair on the walls fuking disgusting.

    Proves that if you repeat a lie often enough people will believe it, though didn't we used to put gays in prison here not too long ago?
    Someone hasn't got a clue about their history. Go & read a * B - O - O - K . . . then we'll talk!
    I suppose Simon Bolivair was Pol Pot then if Castro is compared to Hitler...

    Theres a reason the west did not invade Cuba, even though Castro * the west of more so than Saddam and Gaddafi ever could. Desert countrys are easy pickings, they have plenty of resources like oil and gas to plunder. And all they have to do to get these resources is wipe out the enemies military from the air. The enemy cant hide in the desert so its easy pickings for thousands of Nato bombers and fighter jets. It is not a coincidence that we only go to war with sand dwellers. Desert country equals easy money to the powers that be. Now imagine trying to invade somewhere like Cuba with its thick swamps and jungle. The air support would not be as dominating in this kind of enviroment and the troops would have to wade in and go toe to toe. It would be a * nightmare on an epic scale, it would be Vietnam part 2.

    I am not saying he had the right to treat gays that way, everybody is human and Castro is no saint. But Castros crimes are minuscule compared to the so called free world. And Castro has admitted to and apologized for wrongs that he has done. You have to remember that he would not have survived very long with the USA breathing down his neck if he did not make some ruthless decisons.

    the only way castro survived was to cosy up to the soviets. 'communism' was good for fidel and his 1% and for the other 99% disastrous.
