Brazil -- Cuba’s leader Fidel Castro has cancer, N-TV TV station announced citing Brazilian newspaper Folha de São Paulo considered to be well informed about Castro’s health.

According to the newspaper Brazil’s President Luis Inacio Lula da Silva has been informed by Havana that Fidel Castro has a cancer formation in his stomach.

“It looks like we are losing our friend,” the Brazilian newspaper reads citing Luis Inacio Lula da Silva. Even if he recovers from the stomach operation Cuba’s leader most probably won’t be able to run the country again, Folha de São Paulo comments.

It would not surprise me if this news turned out to be true. When I heard he handed power over to his brother, my first thought was: He must have cancer.

I really don't care what kills him except that it's more than 40 years overdue.

Sounds like Fidel is on the express train from Havana to Hell. Hard to summon up the usual humane wishes we normally extend even to those we despise.

Excellent!

Hope he dies a miserable, painful, horrific death.

I will sleep better knowing that this marxist tyrant is suffering.

gee with that great free communist medical care in Cuba the democrats and media present all the time, I'm sure his 5-year survival rate is going to be ........bwahahahahahaha at least 12%...just like ours.

That's if he's had a curative resection, top notch pre-op and post resection oncology treatment.

Gee, since that stuff is free, there should be a lot of gastric oncologists just hanging around willing to study for years to get $150 per month to treat patients...

let's see.... a slow painful death to a murderous dictator....

karma.......it's a real BEEEEEAAAAATTCCCHHH.

Vile man, this is what comes of internalizing all that hatred, a fitting end for such as he.

I hear they have great health care in Cuba though, still
if that doesn't work there are lots of cancer clinics on
the Mexican border that could do him a world of good.
