Now We Know

So now the whole world has seen that Fidel is still alive. Some are crying, some are saying "I told you so," and some don't care because it doesn't matter, Fidel doesn't matter. Cuba still suffers, whether Fidel is there or not. Nothing has changed.

That must be the worst feeling in the world, to know that after all is said and done, you don't matter. And Fidel must surely know that now. Just as we know he's still around, he knows we don't care. What we care about is a free Cuba, a free people, a free land. We don't care about Fidel.

But I care. I don't care about Fidel the dictator — he can rot in hell (and surely must be rotting already with all those reported surgeries and all he's going through). I care about Fidel the human being that God created a long time ago with the same potential with which He created me and the rest of the humans on this planet.

I would like to see Fidel pay for all he's done. But more than that, I'd like to see him change his life before he dies. I'd like to see him preach the gospel of Jesus before he dies. And I'd like to see him beg for forgiveness. I'd like to see him use his great powers of declamation in a truly worthy cause just once in his life.

Well said AC! I feel the same, the damage is done. But I will like to see a Nuremberg type of trial, so the world could see how he and his regime murdered, discredited and separated Cubans for 50 years with his "Revolution" Mierda! When the hammer comes down, this regime that he and Raul built will prove once and for all, that communism doesn't work and never will. God Bless Cuba, Que Viva Cuba Libre! Jose (Cubanology.com)
