[GePap]

Since when has a single uncorroborated story from a single Brazilian newspaper become gospel??

[Barnabas]

For example

Yo castro perros = I castrate dogs

[Barnabas]

Evo Morales said that it was not true (the cancer stuff)

It's really sick, that US gloating over Fidel being sick.
Now, its only a matter of a few years till they install another brutal dictator who will "play along" and sell the country.
I bet that in 20 years the Cubans will wish Fidel was still around....

Obviously a realistic prognostication

Is there a school where people teach you all this?

[Dis]

Hey if Elian Gonzales wishes Castro well, he can't be that bad of a guy.

CNN international's pretty good. Or at least it doesn't appear all that much different from BBC World.

Which if you know me, is the worst torture you could ever inflict upon me.

The U.S. government, in the 1950s, decided the island was overpopulated, and began various prgrams to stop population growth. The most successful one is the free ticket to America, which is why about half of all Puerto Ricans live in the U.S.

My impression was that the migration was encouraged by Rep Vito Marcantonio (sp?) a fellow traveling congressman who represented east harlem.

Aside from the humor of the translation, this sucks. Teh Miami Cubans are going to be insuferable now.

I for one, would be very surprised if Cuban authorities are giving Lula inside info on the state of Castros health.

Reuters:

HAVANA (Reuters) - Cuba has set in motion a peaceful political succession, dashing U.S. government expectations of chaos following Fidel Castro's hand-over of power to his brother, a leading Cuban intellectual and government member, Roberto Fernandez Retamar, said on Monday.

"They (the U.S. government) had not expected that a peaceful succession was possible. A peaceful succession has taken place in Cuba," Fernandez Retamar said at a news conference.

The writer and member of the Council of State was the first government official to say a succession under Raul Castro was in motion after Fidel Castro relinquished power a week ago following gastric surgery.

Fidel is done and over with. Perhaps he'll take the Sharon option, but he's not getting back.
