I view Lada Ray’s posting of this information about Fidel Castro the real story of Cuba (as well as about many other countries around the world who were not able to resist the Empire of THE USA CORP and consequently were “stolen” (enslaved?)) is very important to know. Several other Lada articles and videos about Cuba are linked in this article.
“Fidel Castro’s lifetime achievement was something no one believed possible: a tiny, poor and seemingly defenseless island, just a short distance from Florida, was able to withstand over 50 years of pressure and threats from the 500-pound gorilla next door.

“…Cuba led by Fidel, called in most countries ‘the island of freedom’ but referred in the USA as ‘that imprisoned island’ didn’t surrender and didn’t succumb. Love him or hate him, Cuba under Castro managed to preserve its authentic national identity and its sovereignty.
“For many people Fidel Castro remains a symbol of freedom and social justice.”

RIP Fidel Castro: Remembering Comandante (and how I met him)
A long-time Cuban leader and one of the most iconic and controversial figures of the 20th century, Fidel Castro died last night aged 90. The funeral is scheduled for December 4 in Santiago de Cuba.
I met Fidel Castro when I was 20. As a translator for the Soviet Ministry of Education and la Universidad de la Habana, I had the chance to interpret in the meetings of the Soviet scientific delegations with Fidel Castro.
Fidel Castro’s lifetime achievement was something no one believed possible: a tiny, poor and seemingly defenseless island, just a short distance from Florida, was able to withstand over 50 years of pressure and threats from the 500-pound gorilla next door. USA orchestrated a brutal 50-year Cuban economic blockade and multiple attempts at invasions and subversions. Castro himself survived over 500 CIA assassination attempts – more than any leader in recent human history.
Through all this, Cuba led by Fidel, called in most countries ‘the island of freedom’ but referred in the USA as ‘that imprisoned island’ didn’t surrender and didn’t succumb. Love him or hate him, Cuba under Castro managed to preserve its authentic national identity and its sovereignty. It’s a lot more than can be said for many of the rich and well-positioned world’s countries, including Ukraine, Europe, Canada, Australia, parts of Latin America and Asia, and USA itself.
‘Sovereignty’ and ‘national identity’ are the key words that are as timely today as they were in 1959.
For many people Fidel Castro remains a symbol of freedom and social justice.

Remembering Comandante

Fidel’s quotes:
He who isn’t capable of fighting for others won’t be able to defend himself.
A warrior can die, bit not his ideas.
The worst thing is to capitulate before the enemy who attacks you for no reason and with no right to do so.
The world lives on top of the powder keg, which USA is ready to blow up any moment.
Our country is a spiritual paradise. We choose to die in paradise, rather than surviving in hell.
I know that the war I conducted against USA all my life was pre-destined.
A revolution is a struggle to the death between the future and the past.
They talk about the failure of socialism but where is the success of capitalism in Africa, Asia and Latin America?
