Live Fidel Castro: world reacts to death of Cuban leader – live updates Brother Raul Castro announces on Cuban state television that controversial revolutionary leader has died at age of 90 Read more The revolutionary icon, one of the world’s best-known and most controversial leaders, survived countless US assassination attempts and premature obituaries, but in the end proved mortal after suffering a long battle with illness.
The announcement was long expected, given the former president’s age and health problems, but when it came it was still a shock: the comandante – a figurehead for armed struggle across the developing world – was no more. It was news that friends and foes had long dreaded and yearned for respectively.
The Communist party and state apparatus has prepared for this moment since July 2006 when Castro underwent emergency intestinal surgery and ceded power to his brother, Raúl, who remains in charge.

Do I need to check DU to see their reaction?
Now his pederast brother takes over.
I hope his punishment is an eternity living under Fidel Castro.
Hopefully he is frog marched past all his victims on his way to hell.
perfect timing.. a sign from God.. the left is loosing
He’s been sick so Cuba’s been run by his more radical brother Raul.
I sent a news tip to Matt Drudge. Apparently he’s still in a turkey coma
“First Trump wins and now Castro’s dead. They’re going to be jumping out of windows on college campuses all across the country.”
Haul out the “Che” tee shirts, snowflakes. Fidel and Che are together once again, frying in the same pan, so to speak. And yes, there indeed is dancing going on this very minute in Miami’s Little Cuba streets.
Finally!
May Raul be flushed to the same sewer that Fidel is being flushed to. They deserve to rot together.
Obama must be really upset. He always admired how Castro could murder so many of his political opponents and if only he could snuff out as many. And what Obama liked the most was, not the totalitarian control healthcare and thus the lives of those in Cuba as much as Castro’s stranglehold over free speech and his one party system.
Ironic, however is, Castro dies as Trump takes over. Symbolic. The old dinosaurs of Castroism and the Obamanists look in the political coffin that they will soon both will lay in. Both system’s that share so much in common, Obama and Castro... are facing the graveyards of political demise as the new bright Star shines in the heavens.
This is the end. Now let’s get rid of that pathetic brother uf his, along with making sure that ugly soul of a wife of Obama never sees the political light of day, nor that little turd Chelsea of the Clintonistas.
Finally.
No kidding. Of course, we still have his idiot brother to deal with.

A belated Happy Thanksgiving. I’ve waited a LONG time for this! Burn, baby, burn!
I’m drinking now for two reasons. One cause this commie piece of crap is dead and two so I can go piss on his grave
I’m not tired of winning yet.
Will Obama order flags lowered to half staff and attend the funeral?
