French President François Hollande on Saturday called for the embargo that punishes Cuba to be lifted definitively following the death of Fidel Castro. [ ]
Even if I have repeatedly denounced human rights abuses in Cuba, I have always believed that the embargo was an unacceptable, unilateral decision, he said. Fidel Castro was a great figure of the 20th century. He aroused much hope with the Cuban revolution. There have also been disappointments.

Communists stick together.
0bama definitely does!
I hope Janet Reno was the first to greet him in hell.
"You are a vicious bastard Castro, and, uh, I'm glad you're dead! Ha Ha Ha Ha!"
“Great” figures of the 20th century:
Hitler
Stalin
Mao
Castro
Obama
Sad how these evil tyrants are all communists/socialists, and yet the political left still dreams that the next tyrant given absolute power will be different.
Another dickwad who is protecting the invaders who are killing his citizens. Now castro is a martyr
Great figure of the 20th century? In the same way Hitler, Stalin, and Mao were.
Castros death certainly has shown who are the real the scum of the earth. Every budding communist is gushing over this man’s death. They just can’t help themselves.
I remember Ed Sullivan interviewing Castro on his program.
He asked Castro: “Are You a Communist?
Castro: “No, I am Not a Communist.”
But he was!
I also remember the 1962 Blockade of Russian war ships heading to Cuba! It looked like we were about to launch missiles! War was just ahead. Everyone was nervous! People in Los Angeles were cleaning out the grocery shelves and heading for the hills, causing accidents and roadblocks! PANIC!
It was smoothed over and we all relaxed.
Then on Christmas Eve, came the report that NORAD had spotted something coming in over the DEW Line! The pucker factor kicked in! Russian missiles? Were we at War?
Then they showed a silly picture of Santa Claus with cotton clouds flying by.
I was upset at the scare, but relieved it was just a Christmas joke.
I still hate that NORAD Christmas Eve thing every Dec 23!
Marine Le Pen better win, or France is truly fsck’d.
Why? The Cuban ‘Revoltion’ as an armed conflict was comic opera. It was all shadow boxing in the mountains while the government armed forces simply collapsed. Then Castro, Raul & Che began the standing firing squads. What’s to cheer about? Seriously, the whole edifice is a Potemkin Village that doesn’t stand up to close inspection.
I wonder how he feels about Adolph Hitler.
Hollande is a miserable jerk and is detested by the majority of the French people. His popularity rating in France is about on a par with the Media support here in the states.
Praising a thug Communist who enslaved his country for 50 years. He will do well with muslin rule in france.
Stalin, Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao, Carter, Obama, FDR, LBJ...liberals have never met a tyrant they didn’t love.
