SUSPICIONS CONFIRMED ABOUT CASTRO!
Fidel Castro's doctors have admitted that the ailing Cuban Prime Minister needs "absolute rest - both physical and mental."
This confirms the suspicion of many, that Castro is not exactly all there. In his long television appearances, in which he often spoke to Cuban audiences for several hours at a time, Castro ranted and raved, and often exhibited unbalanced emotional performances.
Unfortunately for the United States, Castro has designated his brother, Raul, to take over the government in case he is incapacitated.
Raul Castro is a suspected communist — he is openly charged with being a communist by many Americans - and he is known as a fierce hater of the United States.
Should Raul Castro ever assume full power in Cuba, it may be only a question of time before the United States is forced to react against his pro-communist intrigues and aggressions. It may be that some action will be forthcoming in any event, even if Fidel Castro's health holds out.
It is the sad fate of the Cuban population to be subject to their leadership at this juncture, as it was the sad fate of the Germans to be under the leadership of Adolph Hitler in the 1930's, the results of which are still obvious all over the world today.
