Temporaria Fidel is

Or

Cuban Libre

The United States' official position of the last 50 years to ignore Fidel Castro in the hopes he would go away has finally succeeded as the former Cuban strongman has died at the age of 90. Following a failed tryout with the Washington Senators, Castro decided to overthrow the corrupt puppet government of the semi-democratically elected government of Fulgencio Batista. The guerrilla movement found support in the rural poor of the country, and on December 31, 1958, Batista fled into exile, thwarting Hyman Roth and Michael Corleone’s development plans and breaking up Katey and Javier. A Communist island 90 miles offshore was a source of constant embarrassment for the United States, but for the next 50 years, presidents came and went, and through it all there was Castro thumbing his nose at the Yanqui imperialist dogs, giving 5-hour speeches decrying capitalism, stymieingdi an inept invasion at the Bay of Pigs, redecorating the island with Soviet nuclear weapons and of course, assassinating John F. Kennedy. While the rural poor loved him, he brooked no dissent, and Cuba’s record on civil liberties earned the praises of Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-Il, among other beloved figures.
