.fidel castro Death Watch, Take 2846
The latest joke: castro wakes up from the operation, and the doctor says, I have good news and bad news.
The good news is that the operation went fine and you'll be back on your feet in no time.
The bad news is that officially your dead.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I'm trying my best to find pictures of the street celebrations going on now here in Miami, but non of the local news channels have anything yet
We are getting report that there have been some unusual police activity in Santa Clara Cuba. Not sure if it's related, but we might just not get a full night of celebrations before the bill comes due.
I'll keep an eye out for anything and report back here.
Sill having no luck getting the pictures of Miami
From KillCastro:
The Grim Reaper is coming....
The news from Cuba are dark....
There's no curfew -officially- but there is an augmented police presence in certain neighbohoods. Just to prevent the people from getting into a celebratory mood, evidently...
...The latest rumor in Havana:
Dead kasstro, he is as dead as it comes.
The police is very nervous and the armed forces have been mobilized...
Thanks CB keep us informed.

The rumor mill has many stories, from colon cancer to cyrrhosis of the liver, as we have reported so many times. We also reported on the real cause of his fall, which was according to doctors in the Cira Garcia hospital a fracture of the head of the femur due to bone fragility. Also, a source in the health field in Cuba said that kasstro actually has a coleostomy bag, and that it was evident in his last travel to Argentina.
We will keep you posted, as reports from Havana keep on coming and we need to establish veracity for every single one of them.

Santa Clara, Havana, Matanzas, Cienfuegos are in a celebratory mood, let's celebrate with them, because if even kasstro is not dead yet, everything can help the moods of the Cuban people.
Abajo fidel!
Viva Cuba Libre!

Procastro elements are roaming the streets of Santiago and Havana with clubs and iron bars.
There are a few areas of Havana without telephone or electric light.

BIG UPDATE:
The population is coming out to the streets in Havana, the Brigadas de Respuesta Rapida have been patrolling with the police, but in La Vibora, Centro Habana, and El Cerro the residents are out on the streets and there are screams of ABAJO FIDEL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
My opinion is that the Exiled Cubans of Miami should immediately head for Cuba, anything that will float, swim if you have to but now is the time before the new regime has a chance to take full control
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From Babalu Blog, linked above:
Update: Congreswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen is urging all Cubans in Miami with boats to NOT attempt to go to Cuba to bring family members over or for any other purpose. All vessels will be intercepted at sea.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I say fuck that, they can't stop us all
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The US Embassy in La Havana is reporting quiet, no police no tanks no nothing out of the ordinary
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I think Dade county's emergency response team is being called in just in case
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From Babalu Blog:
Update: Bird Road in Miami is now reportedly closed because of the impromptu celebrations. WFOR has streaming video of the celebrations in Miami here.
Thanks Val!!

More fro KillCastro:
People massing at el Malecon, coming down from Belascoain, Galiano, and other important streets in Centro Habana, there are Brigadas de Respuesta Rapida and some police presence near the American Interest Section. The police and "civilians" are trying to disperse groups of people near Parque Central and el Capitolio.
There are people in certain parks in La Vibora, as well as people in the rooftops all over the city.
No obituary yet on the New York Times.
Their report was dated at 10:56 pm, they were behind all the bloggers.
A good sign comes by omission: The Granma (official communist party newspaper in Cuba) hasn't updated its website. This is a great sign, because no pre-written statement is up to the situation.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
US Embassy still deny it all
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I don't think the government is appreciating my call for a boat lift to take down the new regime.
Funny dark tinted window cars are cursing my street, if I disappear, you know who's got me.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Another update:
Many people went down la Rampa from Coppelia towards el Malecon. There are police presence in the area of Coppelia and the Havana Hilton, and near other hotels in the Capital.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
From Babalu:
Update: There are thousands of Cuban-Americans out on the streets of Miami right now, all of them celebrating the possible demise of fidel castro. All of them cheering and carrying Cuban flags alongside Old Glory. You can here the shouts of "Libertad! Libertad! Libertad!' in the background on the news reports. It is, indeed, a joyous occassion. But I'd like all of you to know that behind each celebratory scream, behind every smile, behind every feeling of unbridled joy and desperate happiness, there are 47 years of tears. Forty seven years of frustration. Of anger. Of pain. Of loss. Of separated families and drowned brothers and sisters. These celebrations have been paid for in blood. And they are more than well deserved.
Viva Cuba libre coño!
~~~~~~~~~~~ Val as always captures the moment and the emotion~~~~~
KillCastro:
Apparently, this is going to be a night without turmoil in Havana.
Just some unrest, and then news will start rolling as word of mouth at the break of the day.
People talk about the incapacity of raul caligula kagasstro to lead to country and the possibility that this is the beginning of the end of the tyranny.
My prediction is that the country will stay quiet, fearing the worse, until the final announce is made. After that, nobody knows anything for sure!

Hopefully they are busy sharpening their knives.
This might be it for tonight, I will keep an eye out, and post if I see or hear anything

DANCING IN THE STREETS
Thousands of anti-Castro Cuban-Americans are celebrating in the streets of the Little Havana of Miami tonight. Streaming video of the celebrations here. One step closer to Cuba Libre, baby. Via Yahoo! News:
Michelle Malkin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The cops are trying to reopen the streets all over Miami, but the party goes on. They are asking people to move to the sidewalks to allow traffic to resume.
From the pictures I'm seeing on TV the party has been going on for the last five hours and has been 100% peaceful, I have not heard of any violence or arrest.
But the streets are full of trash from the crowds, and I'm sure that the city wants to get that cleaned up before the morning traffic.
I love you Miami
Viva Cuba Libre
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Well it's now 3:00 am in the morning and people are still out on the street. I even saw some fire works go up just now, people are saying that they plan to stay out till they know for sure if the fucker is dead. People are also saying that if Raul takes over that they are going to invade the island to prevent him from ruling over Cuba...we will see.

"Local news is reporting that fidel castro has "temporarily" handed power of the communist nation over to his brother Raul. Details are sketchy at the moment, but reports are that he was suffering from "intestinal ailments."Needless to say Miami is celebrating already. And why not, we deserve it, but like all drunken stupors, tomorrow we will pay the bill. But for tonight, let's party like there's no tomorrow.
Maybe Presidents Bush's visit to Miami today gave the bearded bastard a bad case of runs. Whatever the outcome, lets all hope castro is presently wallowing in severe pain."

MT,
It would only be too appropriate it if Hugo Baby would find himself shuttling between Ahmadinejad and Castro on his deathbed.
The circle would be complete.

CNN is saying that Raul is a "heavy drinker". That's what we need, a despotic drunk 90 miles from our drunks in the Florida Keys. Of course, Jimmy Buffett will be composing/singing anthem at his "Drunk Aid" concert.
Hey come on don't rain on our parade, let us have a moment of jubilation before reality comes crashing in.
Anyway Jeffrey thanks for caring. Is there a reaction in NY
hairy carrot, welcome to the blog.
Yea he's a heavy drinker, and he's also played the bad cop all these years, most people don't think he could hold on to power long. He's not a very complicated person, he'll ask you once, then shoot you if you haven't already agreed.
Dude, maybe you got a chance. I wish I were in Miami right now. I'm always up for a good party.
vIVA CUBA LIBRE!
I wish I had the pershmega
Thanks
