Fidel Castro, good or bad? - Page 3 - Politics version 7.0 -- Two Plus Two Poker Forums

This is the History Forum - not current events or an ethics/morals forum. Cigar puffing Castro is still blowing smoke. You can make this post in the History Forum after he dies and is in the grave for 20 years.

This will be moved to the new politics unchained forum as the best fit for the OP.

You might have a fair point, the problem is, Fidel Castro will never be part of history according to your theory, FOR THE GUY IS UNKILLABLE!!! Many have tried, but to no avail... Ask the CIA... Ask Bobby Kennedy... He simply will not die!

It's highly plausible imo

Ever read Legacy of Ashes, which is the history of the CIA? Great book, but it shows in the documents that Robert Kennedy tried to have Castro killed, which might of lead to the assignation of his brother, John, by the indirect involvement of Fidel...

I mean, what? You think they should have been paying attention to events in Oregon?

Way worse than Fidel Castro! Stalin is up there with Hitler and Pol Pot... Read a history book about the gulags, it is mind blowing!

Stalin was misunderstood. He did some great things for Mother Russia.

Haha, yeah, and Obama actually won it! Tells you something about the credibility of the prize. And both Hitler and Mussolini were nominated, while Gandhi never was!
