Castro also expressed his gratitude for all the good wishes he has received from government leaders and supporters around the world

Why is that a bummer? May I ask why you wishes him dead?

The same reasons that the cubans that died trying to get to the united states did.
Cuba is not exactly a free state.
No media is "allowed" from the outside, all of it has to be from within cuba. He keeps people in captivity. For gods sake the guy put his own daughter in jail for not believing what he did. All of the cubans that dont make to florida get put in jail and most get killed, for wanting.......... a good oppurtunity and freedom.
Do you think he should be alive ?
I think that if you cut the head off the chicken at least it will weaken his "government"

Thank you, Grady, for your intelligence. Also, a dictator 90 miles away with some connections with Russia, etc, is no good for the USA.

Of course, that would be the ones who want to keep breathing.
This has been going on for half a century. Some of us are here to tell the story. Fox wasnt even around the time Fidel took over.

Many know better than to believe what FOX news tells them about the evil Arabs out to get our freedom. So why be so gullible believing the **** you hear about Castro.

Before I say anything about Fidel and Cuba, I want to note this disclaimer: I understand and have no illusions about Fidel. I know he has been very brutal with his opposition. I do not support that.
But then again, are Bush, Cheney and Rumsfeld any better? NO.
Amen. The caribbean playground. Nobody used to go to the other islands...Cuba was IT!!! The night life, gambling, the resorts, the beaches, and the beautiful women

I wish I could go to Cuba. I think it is probably beautiful (its people and culture included).

This statement requires some support. How does the Bush administration resemble the Castro regime?

I hope you can go someday, but that place needs time to be rebuilt. Just make sure you go to Varadero Beach... its the most incredible place on earth!!!
