The West managed to defeat the Soviet state, but not the Soviet cause. And the flags at half-mast for Castro in Ramallah are proof of the Castro-executed Soviet victory over morality and over truth
The Palestinians are loudly mourning the passing of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro. PLO Chief and Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas ordered flags in the PA to be flown at half-mast on Sunday to honor Castro.
They are right to celebrate him.
The Cuban Communist dictator, who murdered tens of thousands of his own people, imprisoned tens of thousands more, caused a million Cubans to flee their homeland, and transformed an island paradise into a water enclosed prison, was a key ally of Palestinian terrorists in their war to destroy Israel.
Castro's support for the PLO and its longtime terror master Yassir Arafat spanned five decades. Castro's secret police, the DGI trained Palestinian terrorists both in Cuba and in the Middle East.
