HAPPY ANNIVERSARY, FIDEL!

Yes, indeed, the 26th of July Movement - and it turned out to be a real movement, in a clinical sense - was Dr. Fidel Castro's name for his revolutionary opus in Cuba. It was the date on which he and his henchmen took to the hills of Oriente Province and commenced the struggle to overturn Fulgencio Batista's vicious, militarist regime in that beautiful country.

He succeeded admirably and immeditaely replaced it with a vicious, Communist regime that was ever moire militarist than Batista's; the new dictators even strutted around in soldier suits - just like Mao.

It's all highly reminiscent of the Soviet model; replacing one intolerable government with a worse one.

Well, anyway, it certainly got the U.S. plenty of Cubans, just like murderous dictator Ho Chi Mihn's atrocities got us plenty of Vietnamese. Way to go, Fidel! Ameican Communists are still in love with you.
