Well, he's ruleing has lead to generations of suffering. He deserves no more. Nah seriously, Don't wish him death, but I hope he won't back to his post.
what do you mean by suffering?
i mean people in cuba dont suffer hungry, they can study whatever they want, they have access to medical atention for free, ive been to Cuba and everyone i talked to was very happy with fidel and the way things are there.
Im not saying im 100% agree with the way of goverment there, but there are certainly lots of goods things to point (where i live those 3 things i said before would be an utopy) and has the support of most of the people in cuba for sure

I can't speak for the quality of their health care but I'm sure Fidel has pretty good guys working for him. I would say America and Cuba both should stop acting like embittered little kids and shake hands and work together. All that missle shit was 40 years ago, the cold war is over, let it go man...it's the 21st century. Is it because it all happened when JFK was around and he's still America's patron Saint? What's funny is that the embargo isn't as big as you think, I could still buy Coca-Cola and Pepsi, Jack Daniels, all sorts of potato chips, Reebok, Nike, Canon stuff all in Cuba all pretty much American stuff. It's simply made in Mexico and shipped over. After all America does like professing to be patriotic and then send it's factories and production to Mexico where people work cheap and the labour laws and enviromental laws are almost nil. In short Cuba is a very, very cool place and don't knock it until you've seen it. And well Fidel is in someone else's hands, not ours. Can't we all just get along?
Were you just in tourist areas, or the every day parts of Cuba? I've been listening to a lot of retorhic this week from US polies in Australia about Cuba and how the embargo is simply for reminding Cubans what they're missing out on in a Comunist state, but if they're getting it anyway, what's the point?

Then again, tourist areas are a lot different to everyday areas, so they might not be available to all Cubans.

I of course travelled off the resort, all over Varadero and the surrounding area and all over Havana. I talked to regular people, Cuban Lodge brothers that I can trust. I also got lost in Havana walking around and checking things out. Very cool place.

Well, lots of nations were sleeping with one eye open through the years afraid of what that mad bastard might do. Not necessarily his own all the time.

well i just admire that fact that he didnt fall into the domination of the USA, and that he can still keep with it after 40 years

about other nations not being able to sleep...how many nations can sleep now without being afraid of being the next target of the USA to install their "liberty"?

I didnt say that man, I said they tried too kill him but never could do it. I'd like to see him dead, but I am a very cynical person, I dont think the US should be allowed to kill anyone they dont like, but I would sooner see a democratic gov in place rather than a dictatorship

if you mean by dictatorship a gov that doesnt have the support of the people, thats not the way Cuba is.
i also like a democratic gov instead of a dictatorship, but i also think that without everything fidel has done in Cuba life in there would much worst like in all the others countrys from south america, at least EVERYONE there can eat, study and receive medical atention.
Here in Argentina we produce food enough to feed 300millions persons, when we have a 40million population which at least 10million doesnt have enough food to eat...
