Cuban Dictator Fidel Castro Just Became the Only Kind of Good Communist
Posted on | November 26, 2016 | 2 Comments
Fidel Castro, who towered over his Caribbean island for nearly five decades, a shaggy-bearded figure in combat fatigues whose long shadow spread across Latin America and the world, is dead at age 90. His brother Raul announced the death late Friday night.
Millions cheered Fidel Castro on the day he entered Havana. Millions more fled the communist dictator’s repressive police state, leaving behind their possessions, their families, the island they loved and often their very lives. . . .
Few fired the hearts of the world’s restless youth as Castro did when he was young, and few seemed so irrelevant as Castro when he was old — the last Communist, railing on the empty, decrepit street corner that Cuba became under his rule.
Castro turned a tropical island paradise into an impoverished desolation. He sponsored subversion and terrorism worldwide, sending Cuban troops to fight to establish a Communist regime in Angola and encouraging Communist revolutions throughout Latin America. He was an immensely evil man, who devoted his life to spreading evil everywhere.
The one nice thing about Fidel Castro living a long life: he got to see communism fail everywhere.
