Raúl - Camilo relations

[Karl Marx's Camel]

How were the relations between Raúl and Camilo? I've heard they were not very good friends (this claim however came from a Cuban exile).

while ive never read that raul was the most affable, democratic, progressive etc etc of the major revolutionary leaders of cuba, the gusano exiles are always trying to push rubbish stories. they have this constant myth that they promote that camilo cienfuegos was killed by castro. i dont recall off hand what camilo was doin in that flight, bu i recall that it was against batista or the usa or something, and the better theories have always been that one of them is responsible for his death.

I'm pretty sure that it was after the Cuban Revolution so it was more of a regular flight than anything else.


As for Raul and Camillo's relations, I have never heard of anyone stating that they were terrible or bad so I'm assuming that they got along all right.

um, after the armed phase of the revolution, perhaps, but thats not the only phase of the cuban revolution. but he was on a legal trip or was carrying evidence of something somewhere. damn, ive gotta figure this out. its gonna kill me til i remember what that flight was about. where are my cuba books.....

Well, at least I've heard he is more of a family man than Fidel. I've heard they all eat together, on Sunday, I think. He spends more time with his family. So I guess he is not that anti-social.
