Nelson Mandela is dead, why hide the truth about Apartheid? Headlines his most recent article, the leader of the Cuba, Fidel Castro.

From Fidel Castro

Perhaps the empire believed that our people will not honor his word when in uncertain days of the last century, we argue that even if the USSR disappeared Cuba would continue fighting.

So far there is nothing that is not known.

But why try to hide the apartheid regime, who did so much suffering in Africa and outraged the vast majority of the nations of the world, was the result of colonial Europe and was converted to nuclear power by the U.S. and Israel, which Cuba, a country that supported the Portuguese colonies in Africa fighting for their independence, openly condemned?

Our village, which had been ceded by Spain to the United States after the heroic struggle for over 30 years, never resigned himself to the slave regime imposed on him for almost 500 years.

In Namibia, occupied by South Africa in 1975 left racist troops supported by light tanks with 90 mm cannons penetrated more than a thousand kilometers to the outskirts of Luanda, where a Special Troops Battalion Cuban-Management and several air crews also Cuban Soviet tanks that were there no staff, could contain. That was in November 1975, 13 years before the Battle of Cuito Cuanavale.

I said that we did nothing looking for prestige or no benefit. But it is a very real fact that Mandela was a man of integrity, deep and radically revolutionary socialist, who with great stoicism endured 27 years of solitary confinement. I kept admire his honesty, his modesty and his great merit.
