Topic: Fidel Castro Dies at 90. Today is the day Cuba is .. (Read 2276 times)
His brother continue manage the country. In fact, nothing changes in Cuba. Cuba have a lot of antique goods - cars for example, so this country can get a lot of cash, if they start to export and sale antique goods. US tourists will no be interested in this poor country, except some antique goods dealers.
I dont see why you guys hate Castro and communism this much, communism is the future
Also, i dont think any drastic changes will be made under his brother, both of them think alike
Crypto currencies would not survive under communist rule as it is free market capitalism. Internet censorship is also very widespread in communist countries. Why is it the future and why should the Bitcoin community support communism?Also, i dont think any drastic changes will be made under his brother, both of them think alike
All those who support ideologies such as communism and socialism are lazy welfare rats, who want to leach off hard-working people. The same is the case here as well. Those who don't want to work, will support communism.
Completely free!
First U.S citizens are allowed into the country and that might have caused him to have a heart attack.
One communist country has fallen and 4 more too go!

They need one more to kick the bucket before they stand a chance to have a non-totalitarian government again. Seeing his funeral procession with citizens waving cuban flags during it made me think about how people could so quickly forget the firing squads, imprisonments, and awful general nature of the Castro regime.

These points are all showing that Fidel's brother is lax on his tight grip on the country. So not to allow a revolt to happen he has to let these technologies in as China and Russia has come to accept but still has control over it. Remember the google searches being blocked by China?
The Cuban government does not actively block the propaganda channels (like China and North Korea). Google does not face much censorship there. But first of all, not many can afford broadband internet in Cuba. Even if you try to disperse American propaganda through internet, it will reach only a few tens of thousand households at the most.
Adios comandante, Hasta la victoria siempre.

whatever people here are saying that doesn't change the fact that Castro is a hero and of course not all of people will agree cause this how politics work
he survived more than 600 killing attempts from the US and died at 90 , this is alone a great achievement
A hero? I agree that with his death the cold war era is finally over. But what will Russia start up now that one of their allies have passed? Will they come to Trumps side now as an ally to fight ISIS?he survived more than 600 killing attempts from the US and died at 90 , this is alone a great achievement
not sure how this is related to this subject , but what I'm sure about is that Cuba will stay as an ally of Russia
and btw Russia doesn't need the US to fight ISIS , Russia only wants the americans to stop supporting ISIS
we all know that without US support ISIS wouldn't exist
Al-Assad is the legal leader of Syria , there is no way to compare a group of terrorists with a leader and the Syrian army
Russia is fighting in Syria legally since the Syrian government asked them to do so , while US is making the situation worse
and for the 2nd time we are talking about Castro here , there are many other topics about the war in Syria

Fidel and Raul are very similar,in fact Raul is more extreme in a lot of aspects when it comes to the Socialist bend.
True change will not come under him either,in fact the changes right now are out of survival with the other Socialist superpowers all falling apart.
Would not dance on Fidels grave but I also do not shed any tears for the man as long as the people suffer for believing in or being forced to believe in a different way of life.

Can't agree with that statement. Rail seems to be a moderate compared to Fidel. I agree that before assuming power, he had a reputation for being a ruthless extremist. But his policies have changed since then. He has become more moderate and conciliatory. He is solely responsible for the recent upswing in the relations with the United States.
Really see no other options for Raul and you can tell he was opening up with gritted teeth when he had to make any public address.
Obama had to take some serious barbs/jabs his direction for keeping Cuba stifling under their thumb for so long. Raul is no dummy I do not see Cuba turning a new leaf so easily without a bigger picture in mind. Venezuela falling into disarray really cost Cuba a leg to stand on and I think this is just a emergency measure,since they do not want to be owned by Russia or China for the most part.
You may be right in Raul softening with age though because the old Raul would have bit off his arm before following through with this current set up.
So you are saying that US is in league with ISIS in directly? That is a bold statement I would say if you are an American here having your leader in fact help the terrorists in doing what they do.
More like the Americans and the ISIS having common enemies (Assad, Putin, Iran, Hezbollah.etc) and joint objectives (overthrow of the Assad regime in Syria, establishment of an Islamic Caliphate in Yemen.etc). At least some of the American politicians believe that the ISIS is a better option when compared to Assad in Syria.
But Hillary during her campaign run was saying that Trumo was Putin's friend. So this is going to play out sometime soon with ISIS being in the fore front of every super power's mind?

Russia has been fighting the ISIS for the last two years. On the other hand, the Americans were indirectly helping the ISIS, by attacking the pro-government forces (the bombing of Deir Ezzor was the most brazen attempt by the US till now, to help the ISIS).
Didn't you hear the statement they put out saying that the Macy's day parade for Thanksgiving was the perfect place to impose their fear upon. Even if there are kids there:

Do you know what he did to his people? How badly he oppressed his country?
literally hitler Do you know what he did to his people? How badly he oppressed his country?
Brainwashed liberal youth everywhere think that Fidel Castro and Che Guevara are some god like figures. These idiots don't know anything about the history. They should interact with the Cuban refugees to find out what Castro did to that country.
Says the guy with the swastica... The Russians were allied with them, you know that right? Communist? Kinda goes against that profile pic of yours.

The Americans tried to assassinate anyone who didn't agree with their policies. Sometimes, these attempts are successful (examples are Patrice Lumumba of Zaire, Ngo Dinh Diem of South Vietnam, Rafael Trujillo of the Dominican Republic, and Thomas Sankara of Burkina Faso). Other attempts were unsuccessful (Fidel Castro of Cuba, Norodom Sihanouk of Cambodia.etc).
It's always easier to fight for principles than to live up to them. That what applies to Fidel Castro.
He may have started his revolution out of the morally sound motive to free people from dictatorship, but ended up becoming a dictator himself. That kind of career is symptomatic for many revolutionary leaders, who are absorbed by principles, but not by compassion for the people.
So it's definitely a day of liberation for Cuba. However if the country has a brighter future remains to be seen...

It's not up to them, Fidels' brother is the president, and I believe they share the same kind of thinking.
I hope the US has learnt its lessons about regime change - either you fail like you did with Fidel Castro. Or you think you succeed, and then you realize how big a failure it was, like in the case of Saddam Hussein. Raul may be worse than Fidel, but America should let Cuba decide its own future.
this was a very great man

That's due to their need to expand economic growth out of self interests. Not because the ol USA is going to be on their side.
You don't think he was really running the country do you? At 90 yo it's likely all he's been doing for the last couple of years is drooling and pissing on himself.

Not long time ago Cuba renewed diplomatic relations to USA. But it's stil comunist country and situation won't change in nearest future. Dinasty of Castro have big power and respect from citizens of Cuba. Economy of Cuba is weak and many people in this country are poor.
But for me it's very strange and nice to see pictures of Cuba, where people rides with classic american cars made in mid of previous century or old cars made in Soviet Union.
All I stated was he was not the worst out of the two brothers. As for the history,who is to know really if it could have worked,to many powers where limiting Socialism from breathing,it forced odd bed fellows to come together. I never really liked how the whole Che aspect went down and that for me was what made me not a big fan of Fidel.

Farewell to this great man. He stands the bullying from other country and propel his nation to great success. Their healthcare,Cuban health systema nd research is one of the best in the world. UN even recognized them. Rest In Peace Pres. Fidel Castro.
The best medicine in the United States and Israel. Cuba is not even close to is in this list. You probably have something confused. Cuba one of the poorest countries in the world.To Great success? What is the success? staying hungry for the longest i the world? Many, many European countries have a better health care system.. Rest in peace Dictator* Fidel Castro.
One less commie tho

And after his brother, his son will be made the leader. Fidel Castro spent millions of USD every year to lead a luxurious lifestyle, when ordinary Cubans were struggling to feed themselves. Fidel Castro was a clone of Kim Jong Il.
I wouldn't say he's a clone on Kim Jong Il, Kim Jong Il and Un are much worse, with the killing, stealing, not caring... Castro is just a commie, and this is how every communism end, as a dictatorship, starts as a noble movement with a revolution and end in "spent millions of USD every year to lead a luxurious lifestyle, when ordinary Cubans were struggling to feed themselves"...

American tourists have been welcomed by Cuba for many years, it was the United States government that prevented direct travel to Cuba. Also, his death does not necessarily mean that the country will no longer be communist. The government will simply elect a new puppet to uphold the status quo.

How can rest in peace the man who was cursed by so many people? It will not be quiet. All tyrants will burn in hell. Thanks to him, the inhabitants of Cuba will be a very long time begging.
Cuba has great potential for economic growth. If the United States remove the sanctions and the embargoes, then the situation will improve by quite a bit. Cuba can become a very important tourist destination for the American nationals.
Cubans who live on the island are slaves. And as expected they are slaves crying over the death of his master. Cubans who live in America happy because they know the price of freedom.

I don't agree with you.
First, communist party is still in the power in Cuba.
His brother, Raul, is still leader in the country.
His legacy in Cuba is still very strong and people in Cuba are brainwashed to believe that America is their enemy and China and Russia friends.
I don't think that Cuba will be free so soon.
