Fidel Castro: Zarqawi Killing a 'Barbarity'

President Fidel Castro called the U.S. airstrike that killed Abu Musab al-Zarqawi a "barbarity," saying he should have been put on trial.

The United States acted as "judge and jury" against the leader of the al-Qaida in Iraq, Castro said late Friday.

"They bragged, they were practically drunk with happiness."

"The accused cannot just be eliminated," he told a literacy conference. "This barbarity cannot be done."

The U.S. military has said al-Zarqawi initially survived the dropping of two 500-pound bombs on his hide-out Wednesday, but died a short time later.

Castro said if Cuba used the same logic, it could bomb the United States to kill its No. 1 enemy, Luis Posada Carriles, who is being held in El Paso, Texas on immigration charges.

The communist government accuses the Cuban-born Posada of masterminding numerous violent attacks against the island, including the bombing of a Cuban airliner that killed 73 people in 1976. Posada denies involvement in the bombing of the plane.

He forgot "and executioner." Why is it that Castro didn't want to recall the "and executioner" part?

I don't have time to read a transcript of his entire 16 hour speech...

Did he mention whether or not he, Baby Hugo, & Jimmah Cattarh are forming a tribunal to bring to justice the perpetrators of this atrocity?

Being gracious to the hostess is not wrong. I've done it before. But on a neutral ground I'll debate anyone until the cow comes home.

Liberals won't do that. Leftists will but they tire after you let them blow out their (endless) propaganda.

Either way, you get to say your piece.

Of course not. I didn't suggest such a thing. Nor did I suggest even a spirited debate.

But if you were Jewish and someone went off on a diatribe against "kikes," your host cannot expect you to merely keep your mouth shut to humor the offender.

Nor, if you're a conservative need you meekly submit to the leftist rant.

Politely addressing them or steering the conversation away from politics and religion is the best idea.

I was asking in my post if simple silent submission is actually one of the worst, and least polite ways of handling it. Maybe it is, maybe it isn't.

I'm still laughing... look who's bragging now? LOL! This reminds me of one of Monty Python's Holy Grail scenes where Arthur chops the Black Night's left arm off...

ARTHUR: Now stand aside, worthy adversary.
BLACK KNIGHT: 'Tis but a scratch.
ARTHUR: A scratch? Your arm's off!
BLACK KNIGHT: No, it isn't.
ARTHUR: Well, what's that then?
BLACK KNIGHT: I've had worse.
ARTHUR: You liar!
BLACK KNIGHT: Come on you pansy!

[hah]
[parry thrust] [ARTHUR chops the BLACK KNIGHT's right arm off]

ARTHUR: Victory is mine!

[kneeling] We thank thee Lord, that in thy merc... [hah]

BLACK KNIGHT: Come on then.
ARTHUR: What?
BLACK KNIGHT: Have at you!
ARTHUR: You are indeed brave, Sir knight, but the fight is mine.
BLACK KNIGHT: Oh, had enough, eh?
ARTHUR: Look, you stupid bastard, you've got no arms left.
BLACK KNIGHT: Yes I have.
ARTHUR: Look!
BLACK KNIGHT: Just a flesh wound.
[bang]
ARTHUR: Look, stop that.
BLACK KNIGHT: Chicken! Chicken!

ARTHUR: Look, I'll have your leg. Right!
[whop]
BLACK KNIGHT: Right, I'll do you for that!
ARTHUR: You'll what?
BLACK KNIGHT: Come 'ere!
ARTHUR: What are you going to do, bleed on me?
BLACK KNIGHT: I'm invincible!
ARTHUR: You're a loony.
BLACK KNIGHT: The Black Knight always triumphs!
Have at you! Come on then.

[whop] [ARTHUR chops the BLACK KNIGHT's other leg off]

BLACK KNIGHT: All right; we'll call it a draw.
ARTHUR: Come, Patsy.
BLACK KNIGHT: Oh, oh, I see, running away then. You yellow bastards! Come back here and take what's coming to you. I'll bite your legs off!

"I think I'll go for a walk!"

"No you won't!"

"I feel happy... I feel happy..."

An absolute favorite. We could go on forever you know, quoting from this movie.

And what are you doing in England?!
