Fidel Castro is dead

Juncker of the EU is upset as well. Sick piece of scum.

Fidel Castro was one of the historic figures of the past century and the embodiment of the Cuban Revolution. With the death of Fidel Castro, the world has lost a man who was a hero for many. He changed the course of his country and his influence reached far beyond. Fidel Castro remains one of the revolutionary figures of the 20th century. His legacy will be judged by history.

I convey my condolences to the Cuban President Raúl Castro and his family and to the people of Cuba.

Crowds flood streets of Miami's Little Havana to cheer Castro's death

News of Fidel Castro's death was quick to reach Miami, the center of the Cuban exile community, where an outpouring of emotion brought jubilant crowds onto the streets of Little Havana.

Some popped champagne corks, others clanged pots and waved the Cuban flag as they cheered the death of a man who defined the lives of so many Cubans through decades in exile in the United States.

Hundreds gathered outside the neighborhood's Versailles restaurant, a longtime haunt of the exile community, spilling out on to the street from the sidewalk as they chanted, sang, danced and took smartphone videos of a historic moment.

What I remembered of Fidel Castro, that really shocked me.
Cuba, poor as it was, sent more than 200,000 ( 200 thousands) very well qualified DOCTORS
all over the world to offer free medical care.
Not only that, but they did not go and talk about it in all the medias like us ( we hear about
doctors without borders as a great achievement when in fact it is peanuts).
I then discovered that they also trained through their universities thousands of people free of charge to become GP. The quality of their training being so good, that the rare one who decide to work in Western Countries in Europe do not need to do any retraining.

This is what really astonished me.
