Marching in Cuba

I found this quote upto interpretation.

The crowd chanted "Free Cuba! Fascist Bush!"

Are they asking Bush to finally free them from Castros rule?

I wonder what's going to happen to Cuba once Castro bites the dust. The house of Saud and Cuba are about to break open. Could mean big trouble.

I just find it almost comical watching these old timer dictators. They are like comic strip villans. They always wear the same cloths and always say the same things.

They should all form a book club or something and get together on the weekends for tea.

Of course one of them is about to be hung in Iraq but that doesnt mean Castro and the N Korean dictator cant get together.

Oliver Stone should assassinate Castro during one of the 600 interviews he has lined up with him for 2005, then nominate himself as the next dictator. I'd vote for hi -- oh, well I'd run a state-sanctioned propaganda weekly, anyway.

The Saudi King is an invalid, and his brother is in charge, and there is a clear chain of heirship if the Kings brother dies. As for Fidel Castro, when he dies, his brother Rual, who is in his 70s, will take over. Theres not going to be big trouble over Fidel or Rual dieing. Now there could be huge trouble if the Saudi Royal family gets overthrown.

..photos of abused Iraqis overwritten with the words: "This would never happen in Cuba." Castro referred briefly to the scandal, saying the tortures had "stupefied the world" and he insisted that Cuba had never practiced such torture..

Riiiiiiiiiiiiight. ;) ;) ;)
