Considering that the 20th Century is the century of democide, Castro is an icon of it along with Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot.

We have no shortage of democidal maniacs in this century thanks to the weak policy of “coexistence” with their forebears in the last. Thing is, they seem to want to up the ante towards cosmocide.

This is a wonderful example of exactly why Trump should do whatever he can to get the U.S. out of the U.N. and kick that anti-American cabal of tyrants out of the U.S.

Batista should have stood Castro up against a wall after his failed attack on Moncada barracks.
Castro—failed politician, husband, lawyer—finally found his niche as a commie tyrant.

No surprise - the UN has become little more than a forum for every communist and Third World blowhard on the planet.

Honoring a mass murderer and sadist as a leader. Folk the UN.

It is past time to ask the UN to vacate the United States of America.

No surprises here. The UN has outlived it’s original charter - bring back the League of Nations :) and let them sit in Versailles...

Time to kick The UN out of The US.

Move it to Havana.

That's for damn sure.

Praising a murderous Tyrant for embodying "the struggle of the global south for independence, justice and development" is simply a grotesque perversion of objective reality.

AS such, the UN is forcefully demonstrating its utter unsuitability for any constructive purpose in this world. It apparently exists only to spread authoritarian collectivism and Marxist dogma in general, with the ultimate goal of imposing world government under those auspices...

Ditto. Round up this collection of third world dictators in their ridiculous garb, drag them to New York harbor,toss them in and let them swim for it. Then turn the UN building into a giant silo for storage of pig feed.
