Nothing to see here, folks, just keep moving....

What is going on in Cuba now is a train wreck in progress. The home-grown variety of freedom fighters that has lived for more than a generation under the heel of Fidel Castro mistakenly believes that loosening of the bondage in another country half-way around the world, also signals the potential for shedding their own repression. Alas, Fidel is very good at recognizing a personal threat to himself.

Eventually, Fidel will die. And almost certainly, the Communist regime will depart within days. There is not now in place, any means for the orderly transfer of power in Cuba when Fidel's reign ends.

I don't have the confidence you do, that this will happen. This regime didn't hold together for 43 years because of one man alone.
