August 13 (Today} is a huge Cuban birthday!!

 Fidel Castro was born on August 13th!!

Yes, Fidel Castro was born on August 13th, 1926.

History acknowledges that he lived for 90 years.

     For sure, Fidel Castro's Cuban Revolution shocked the world in 1959 when he beat the unbeatable US/Mafia-backed Batista dictatorship in Cuba.

     And moreover, even more shocking than winning the Cuban Revolution in 1959 is the sheer fact that the Cuban Revolution has, against all odds, been able to survive 65 YEARS in control of Cuba...and, yes, AGAINST ALL ODDS!!!

     Today -- on August 13th, 2024 -- is more than eight years since Fidel Castro died in Havana at age 90. But his revolution, incredibly, still rules Cuba because of him or because of his legacy. That is why Fidel Castro remains the most important person in Cuba to this day and "Siempre"/"Always" -- at least until some foreign superpower regains control of the Caribbean's largest island, which is also, arguably, the Caribbean's most beautiful nation.
