King Trumpery must be heartbroken. He broke the law by doing business with Cuba. As with Pooting, he snuggled right up to him.

Yet he who laughs last laughs best, and we are all laughing at you loons.
 
Fidel Castro dies and goes to heaven. When he gets there, St. Peter tells him that he is not on the list and that no way, no how, does he belong in heaven. Fidel must go to hell.

So Fidel goes to hell where Satan gives him a hearty welcome and tells him to make himself at home. Then Fidel notices that he left his luggage in heaven and tells Satan, who says, "No problem, I'll send a couple of little devils to get your stuff."

When the little devils get to heaven they find the gates are locked - St. Peter is having lunch - and they start debating what to do. Finally, one comes up with the idea that they should go over the wall and get the luggage.

As they are climbing the wall, two little angels see them, and one angel says to the other, "My goodness! Fidel has been in hell no more than ten minutes and we're already getting refugees!"
 
As a rule, I don't believe in Hell....the damn Persians came up with it, you know...thats right---the Iranians.

But, I can make an exception...as a logical necessity....in cases like Fidel Castro.

Messed up a lot of people's lives for a very long time.

But, at last...Satan's slave in Cuba has filled up the full measure of his inequities, and has been called home.
 
Requiem for a dictator...

‘Despicable’: UN’s Top Human Rights Body Holds Minute’s Silence For Fidel Castro
December 6, 2016 – Delegates of the U.N. Human Rights Council opened a meeting in Geneva on Monday by standing silently with heads bowed, after the delegation of Venezuela’s leftist government requested a minute’s silence to “honor” the late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro.
Not everyone in the chamber took part. U.N. Watch executive director Hillel Neuer described the honoring of “human rights abuser Fidel Castro” as “despicable” and said that his non-governmental organization “stayed seated.” In an official U.N. webcast, a member of the Israeli delegation, seated behind Venezuela’s representatives, can be seen walking out as Venezuelan ambassador Jorge Valero asked members to honor Castro. The United States is not currently a member of the HRC – it will return next year after a mandatory one-year break – but U.S. Ambassador Keith Harper tweeted that the HRC “should not be honoring gross and systematic #Humanrights violators with moments of silence.”

Spokesmen for the HRC Secretariat and for U.N. Human Rights Commissioner Zeid Ra’ad Al Hussein did not respond by press time to queries about the appropriateness of the minute’s silence for the leader of a communist regime with a grim human rights record. “On the 25th of November,” Valero told the gathering, “late at night on Friday, we heard the news of the passing away of the historic leader of the Cuban revolution, the comandante and head leader of the revolution, Fidel Castro Ruz.”

Praising Castro’s “constant fight for the peoples of the third world,” the Venezuelan ambassador called him a leader of “international stature” whose “influence went beyond the borders of his country.” “My delegation would like respectfully to ask all delegations to, together, observe a minute’s silence in his honor.” The Venezuelan delegation then stood, followed by others across the chamber. After about half a minute of silence, Valero thanked the Human Rights Council, and delegates took their seats.

The outgoing HRC president, Choi Kyong-lim of South Korea, then gave the floor to a Cuban representative, who thanked Venezuela and the council for the gesture at a “time of deep pain for the Cuban people.” She spent several moments praising Castro, calling him “the father of the Cuban revolution,” “a paradigm of the fight for social justice” and “an inspiration for many dignified men and women who fought and still fight today to defend the principles of independence, sovereignty and equality.” The Cuban delegate added that that fight was also a fight for development, peace, “solidarity between human beings and between all nations of the world,” and a “fight to achieve a world without inequalities in which we can all enjoy all of our human rights.”

It's A Wonderful Life...Without Fidel Castro
12/07/2016 - As Fidel Castro was laid to rest in Cuba this week, according to Huffington Post's WorldPost, critics claimed that it gave the Cuban people a chance to experience a Christmas with less fear than they had known in decades.
Supporters insist that he was a good man, and no one could have done better under the circumstances. Who is right? Ironically a classic Christmas movie, "It's a Wonderful Life," provides the perfect idea to settle this debate. Just as George Bailey, played by Jimmy Stewart, wishes he had never been born as a means of making things better, one can similarly wonder what if Fidel Castro had never lived.

Actually, we can do more than just wonder. We can look at a pair of countries, in a similar situation, with some similar characteristics, to see whether one leader made a difference, compared to another ruler. When Nelson Mandela passed away, I compared all of his great accomplishments to what happened in nearby Zimbabwe with their tyrant, Robert Mugabe. With such a comparison, one can see how valuable Mandela was to South Africa, and the world.

Was Fidel Castro a force for good, or against it? To answer this, I looked at another small Central American/Caribbean country where a social democratic revolution took place after World War II. I am comparing Castro's Cuba to Costa Rica, where a revolutionary regime emerged that applied some tenets of socialism while resisting the urges of authoritarianism.

Typically, geographers and political scientists rate islands as being more conducive for political and economic development. But that's not the case in this comparison. Cuba's GDP per capita is $5,382.82, ranking nearly 100th in the world for that category, according to NationMaster. It's a much better situation in Costa Rica, where the GDP per capita is $9.396.45, good enough for 63rd in the world, according to NationMaster.

He was nowhere near as bad as Hitler or Stalin etc etc etc, or Franco for that matter. Murder is not when you have a trial- and there were plenty of Bautista goons who deserved execution.. About 80% of the world admired him- then there's the hater dupes. Despite our wrecking their economy, forcing Cuba into the arms of the Soviets, and trying to assassinate him for years, Cuba has the healthiest and best educated people in Latin America. Take a break, haters- normalizing relations with Cuba and tourism is the quickest way to end communism there, and always has been. Great job, GOP- screwing things up as usual....
