Fidel Castro, "a nationalist symbol of regional pride and defiance against the gringo superpower" dies aged 90.
Typical Useful Idiot.

Donald Trump says Cuba can move towards a "wonderful future" following the death of Fidel Castro.
Leaders from all over the world have been reacting to the former Cuban president's passing following a long illness.
In a statement, the President-elect said Castro's legacy would be "one of firing squads, theft, unimaginable suffering, poverty and the denial of fundamental human rights".
He added: "It is my hope that today marks a move away from the horrors endured for too long, and toward a future in which the wonderful Cuban people finally live in the freedom they so richly deserve.
"Though the tragedies, deaths and pain caused by Fidel Castro cannot be erased, our administration will do all it can to ensure the Cuban people can finally begin their journey toward prosperity and liberty."
Time will tell.

Adios Caudillo: Fidel Castro Finally Dies at 90
Fidel Castro: 1926 - 2016
That obituary is a refreshing change to the rather sickening praise currently being heaped on the deceased dictator.
Admirers of the revolution often resembled the fellow travelers Arthur Koestler described as peeping toms, peering through a hole in the wall at history while not having to experience it themselves. The novelist Gabriel García Márquez, a personal friend of Castro, once told The New York Times that he personally could never live under the Cuban system. “I would miss too many things. I couldn’t live with the lack of information. I am a voracious reader of newspapers and magazines from around the world.” For Cubans those privations were apparently acceptable.
Quite; there's no hypocrite like a Leftist hypocrite. It's the same with the half-wits that idolize Che Guevera, seemingly ignoring little things like their hero abusing women, despising gays, and regarding Blacks as a lesser form of humanity.

Fidel Castro Finally Dies, But His Apologists Live On
Cuba's communist dictator is finally dead. Good riddance. His apologists live on but they will look foolish in the rearview mirror of history.
History will not absolve Castro for repeated assaults on freedom clothed in populist garb. Whether it was torturing and executing political opponents, rounding up homosexuals, creating neighborhood networks to spy on fellow citizens, or encouraging the Soviet Union to nuke the United States, he was a bully and a thug: the latest in a long line of self-interested opportunists who rule through fear and pretend that it is love.
Yes, Fidel Castro toppled the brutal and corrupt Batista regime, which mid-century America unwisely backed for too long. But he simply replaced one form of tyranny with another, briefly more fashionable, ideological flavor.
One of the most prevalent forms of moral myopia on western campuses and their downstream affiliates is a tendency to excuse whatever oppressive totalitarian violence is committed in the name of the left.

What we leaned today: Killing political dissidents, interning gays, & being a dictator for 50 years is fine, so long as you're left wing.

Some interesting material there.
Warning - the photos of life in the People's Paradise are not for the squeamish.

The breakdown of the Russian-made jeep was ironically symbolic of the barbaric decades of Castro’s rule on the island nation.
Yes. The mechanic responsible for keeping the relic running will probably be shot.

The Presidente is dead, long live the Presidente......I don't see it making much real difference, Fidel was a symbol nowadays rather than an actual leader.

Yes, but man, do some people love his cigars! 
I forgot to say that, for instance, will there be a load of them at his funeral for people like Bill Clinton?
