I'm not a Cuba expert, but I would guess that even if something happened to the brother, there are more evil wannabes who will take his place.

Hard to say, maybe the old commie mellowed with age. One would hope. Course old dogs get set in their ways.

So, do we have LEGAL Cuban cigars in our future? Do I need to get a bigger humidor?

What the Cubans are going to have to watch out for is Chaves stepping in.

A powder keg?
Wishful thinking by the mindset that promised a hero's welcome for Iraq's liberators.

While Castro may very well be dead or incapacitated, it's also important to remember that he could very well be alive and attempting to tempt the U.S. into over-extending our resources...such as by making Cuba appear unstable and in need of a U.S. stability force that Castro could then ambush in a massive sucker punch.
Best to proceed with extreme caution on any military deployment to Cuba...even weeks after the major news media has proclaimed Castro dead and buried.
All may not be as it seems.

They rounded up the reserves and youths corps, and Raul hasnt been seen. Wonder what is going on.

Right now Cuba is a powder keg.What is the best thing that is likely to happen? They aren't likely to go to a two party system with free elections. At least without a lot of "help".

Why not invite Raul to the US, and then take him hostage?

So instead of a Five Year Plan it sounds like Raul may need a AA 12 point plan??

Cuba is a very efficient totalitarian state. They rate zero on economics but 10 on the machinery of suppression.
The best we can hope for is emergence of a China-style state: economic liberalization now, political liberalization in decades.
