Yankabroad,

If Castro was on the correct side of the fight, Uncle Sam would prop him up.

The interesting thing about Castro and Kim Jong-il Kim Il-sung is that these are somr of the only men on Earth to try and keep their countries completely free of the not necessarily healthy influences of the surrounding world.

Terrible regimes? Perhaps. But trying to be INDEPENDENT. And you Americans who are so enamored with Independence have to respect this. Or is it not independence when others do it?

But on a more serious note. How do you compare Castro and Pinochet? The US never supported Castro.

Therefore, Castro is better.

I believe that it should be “Granma Internacional” not “Gramma.”

This entry may well contain the most propaganda-laden 295 words I’ve yet to encounter at this blog. Hats off Mr Jackson!

Castro is generally viewed quite favorably outside of the US.

Castro has more charm and charisma in my opinion.
