Barbra Walters will interview Fidel Castro - 20/20 - ABC New

[Capitalist]

ABC News 20/20 will air an interview with Fidel Castro.

Airs 9:00 pm central USA time on ABC this Friday Night (Oct. 11)

Keep in mind this will be her second interview since 1977.

Also keep in mind that Barbra Walters, like Dan Rather, is a liberal - left sided reporter.

Fear
Anger
Devotion
directed at Fidel Castro will be the subject of her interview.

I expect it will be well scripted like the other left-sided interviews in the past with Fidel Castro. Where Fidel Castro knows ahead which questions will be asked.

The results of this interview will be sort of be like a right-sided, anti-semitic reporter interviewing Hitler.

I expect it will appear much like liberal Dan Rather's interview with Fidel back in 1996, where Dan Rather basically kissed Fidel's ass. Dan Rather = Left-sided = One Sided Reporter = Bad Reporting

All these left-sided reporters never expose Castro for what he truly is.

A tyrant who restricts freedom in Cuba and has directly caused the exile of more than 1/5 the population of Cuba.

Ah but then of course we all understand these Cuban Exiles that live in Miami (which by the way is one of the most beautiful and productive cities in the USA).

We have all heard the ignorant pig headed assumption and accusations.

Cuban Exiles are not like the French Exiles during WWII.

They are not innocent exiles - (We've heard it all before)

Of course we all know that ALL these exiles are previous Batista Supporters and Capitalistic Greedy people like the Scarface depicted by Al Pacino in his 1983 Film. All Cuban Exiles are just evil people, like the 6 million Capitalistic Jews killed in Nazi Germany. 1/5 of the Cuban Population are evil people - so why should their voice matter - they are all just Capitalistic Pigs that care about nothing but money -

(Right? - I wonder who is more sterotypical, more racist, the left or the right??)

[Capitalist]

Transcripts of Barbra Walter's interview with Fidel Castro have already been released.

The Valera Project was a petition by Cuban people living in Cuba to petition the oppressive government of Fidel Castro for simple rights such as:

Free Enterprise
Free Elections
Free Press & Media

Maybe Barbra Walter's interview won't be so liberal. Hopefully she will drill him on Human Rights abuse.

Well, you know I'm going to watch it, and you know I'm going to love it, so whatever :)

[Felicia]

I love Fidel :P

[antieverything]

Actually, Miami is one of the poorest cities in America.

Next time a network manages to get an interview, the CIA should recruit one of the staff to stick him with poison. Make it look like he died of natural causes.

[Felicia]

well if they use a poison they may detect it (if they're looking for it eh). But there is a nice combination of natural chemicals that when injected into the person it makes it look as though they died of a heart attack, but because the elements are naturally found in the body they'd never find it :biggrin: But I'm not telling what it is cause I love Fidel, you on the other hand............ :P

[new democracy]

felicia, when the cappis have dinner, just put this stuff in their food :biggrin:

(Right? - I wonder who is more sterotypical, more racist, the left or the right??)

read our thread over again then you will find out..american media is very right wing, so I exspect you to be against almost all the reporters that exist..?

ask yourself why, WHY, is cuba situated like it is today, think, could it be because someone is restricting any buissness to the country..? someone wich I like to call america..? pls don´t write nonsene like that, at least think what you are going to write before you acctually do write..

[Capitalist]

The USA media is left winged to the core!

Dan Rather = Communist Reporter = Moron Reporting

And must I remind everyone who started the embargo.

Che Guevara and Fidel Castro both encouraged the embargo on USA goods.

Che Guevara (appointed Cuban National Bank President - by self appointed Castro) was especially a strong supporter of ending all trade with the USA and Cuba.

Remember that American and Cuban businesses were nationalized and soon after went to shit - eliminating profitable jobs for Cubans.

Real Cubans love the USA!

[Capitalist]

Cuba has free trade with the entire world, except the USA.

Why would free trade with the USA make anymore of a difference? When Cuba has free trade with Mexico, Canada, Europe, etc.

Cuba owes how much in debt to Europe, Canada, Mexico, etc = 40 Billion in unpaid debt.

[angry to society]

Cuba does not have free trade with every other country in the world, f.ex. Iceland is not allowed to trade with Cuba ´cause we are members in NATO, and that goes for, i think, all the other members of NATO.


Dan Rather = Communist Reporter = Moron Reporting

what´s with you? and you are saying in a sarcastic way that we are more streotypical. And RACIST???? what the fuck has racism got to do with us disagreeing on politics, I think you should take a lesson in what racism is..it´s not us that make movies that dishonor socialism in a BIG way, no no no no, that´s you. I am not calling you a moron (even though I guess you are one) just because you are a capitalist=brainwashed (if you wanna keep going on with your childish "mathematic" formulas) I guess ;)

[Capitalist]

It's about time for Barbra Walters retire.

She is not a reporter.

More like a KISS ASS

[ID2002]

yep...I saw the interview. It was rather interesting, an I think the American people got to see a side of Fidel that they hadn't seen before.

As a Canadian, we've had Fidel Castro in Parlament with the Prime Minister. As Canadians we know that Castro is truely a family man with a outstanding political, and military background. Pierre Trudeau and Castro were very good friends, and because of this our country has gotten to know Castro more personally than..say other countries. Honestly, I think Castro is a brillant man, who has done a great survice to his people. He has outlived most of the great communist/ socialist leaders of his time.
....I dismiss the US nonsense about him being a tyrant...yes, at times the laws are strict, but hell: look at the crime rate...its LOWER than in the US or Canada for that matter and education is effectively distrubuted and literacy rates are very high.
You have to admit: Castro ain't half bad! He's a good guy, whos definately misunderstood by a lot of people.
-------------------------------------------------------------

[ID2002]

Cuba and Canada have a special relationship.

..you know this Cappi!

we've sent are troops down to train with Cuban forces...we learn good tactics :) ...I don't think the US would be that brave. We maybe a small country, but we've got respect.

"Cuba owes how much in debt to Europe, Canada, Mexico, etc = 40 Billion in unpaid debt."

And how much does America owe in national debt? I think that number exceeds 40 billion capitalist.

[angry to society]

ohh..what now, you can´t answer???
rule #1 in these forums, you have to back up what you are saying! otherwise you will not be taken seriously!

[PaulDavidHewson]

The reason that USA doesn't trade with Cuba goes far beyond the Cuba missile crisis.
We all know that USA is pretty much capitalistic.
In regards to other nations, a capitalist country deals with any free country -- but it does not deal with countries that enslave their citizens. Any collectivist state that disregards the inalienable rights of man, is an outlaw, and has no right to exist, and to trade with such a country is to sanction them -- thus denying the right of any country to exist.

Now i know the USA doesn't have a fully implemented capitalistic govement, but isn't it odd that the USA refuses to trade with Cuba for being Communist and because of the cuba missile crisis, but doesn't mind doing bussiness with China.
While in fact China was the one who provided weapons to the VC, China helped the north koreans. Also China has chemical and nuclear weapons.
But then again, when the USA sees China they think $$$ and all their moral standards fly right out the window.

[angry to society]

you´ll excuse me on this one, i don´t get if you are with or agains the U$A..?

you meant that as in cuba being such a country that "inslaves" it´s citizens? back it up pls (that is if you meant it that way)

no offence whatsoever..

[PaulDavidHewson]

My post was meant to indicate once more the hypocritisme of the USA.
Also I think, compared to my own life style, that Cuba does indeed violate a human right or two when it comes to the freedom of the people.

Reasons for this statment would be that in Cuba people are NOT allowed alot of things:
- Cars. People are apointed to a car. They cannot sell this car, nor give it away. The cannot buy a car.
- houses. People are appointed to a house. They cannot sell it, nor give it away. They cannot buy a house.
- Cuban surgeons have to give a ten years notice in advance when planning to leave the country.
- Only one political party allowed, If you are a member of that party you'll receive special benefits.
- People are being watched constantly by a kgb variant of Cuba.
- No free media.
- No reedom of speech.
- No elections.
- The list goes on.

Well, in short. The people in a given country should have far more freedom. Henche, I'd rather cheer for say, A liberal social democratic system.

Your post was in no way an offense. I'm glad you asked me to back up my previous claim.
If you disagree with my arguments I'll be more than happy to debate them with you.

greets.

[angry to society]

I will not debate on this, for i think that is in true.
But this is communism, and this is what communists want, I agree that of ourse there are BIG fails in this system, (I meself consider me to be an democratic socialist, achtung, nota social democrat, for I belive that there is no such thing as good in capitalism)
but then again castro is a great man, and should be respected, he of course is a child of his time, and time changes things, but in the upcoming future , when casto dies, his son is supposed to take over, wich i wouldn´t like in most cases for it smells like monarcy, but his son is more liberal in ideology, and aware of the things that must be done in Cuba...so look forward to the future..

p.s. I wonder what happened to capitalist, if you read this I would like to ask you to back yourself up, a.s.a.p.

[LeonardoDaVinci]

He is certainly one of the few world leaders that have benefited the entire population rather than himself. For example, in Iraq, Saddam Hussein has statues and portraits of himself located in pretty much every street in Baghdad.

Correct me if I am wrong. But I don't think there are many statues of Fidel in Havana if any.

Canada loves Cuba, and Fidel :)
