Fidel Castro
2006 August 2
Is this the last of the great dictator?

I thought I might relay some news:
Having to undergo an operation for an acute intestinal breakdown with sustained bleeding; Fidel Castro 79 has transferred power of the island nation to his younger brother Raul 75. According to a posted message by Fidel on Cuba’s National Information Agency website, “The operation obliges me to rest for several weeks, away from my responsibilities and functions of office.”
