* Here’s an incongruous postscript to the week of national mourning in Cuba over the death of Fidel Castro. President Raúl Castro has announced that the Cuban government would prohibit the naming of streets and monuments after his brother. The government would also bar the building of statues in Castro’s image. This would, underscored Raúl Castro, be in keeping with his brother’s desire to avoid a cult of personality.
Say what? What the hell do they think “Fidelismo” was?
* U.S.: Stop hypocritically lecturing Cuba. Cuba: Stop getting in your own counterproductive way.
