World leaders pay last respects to Fidel Castro

World leaders gathered in Cuba's capital, Havana, for a final farewell to the man who led the Communist nation for decades.
Fidel Castro died on Friday at the age of 90.

[@robertpolanco1973]

Rest in eternal peace, Fidel Castro! The leader of the great Revolution he had led in his country of Cuba! Viva Fidel!

[@werw6808]

Fidel Castro lived probably one of the most iconic lives in modern times. He led a rebellion to defeat the imperialist regime right under the shadow of America. He protected his people and his country from American invasions through Cold War and post Cold War. He survived countless number of assassination attempts by the CIA. Finally passed away peacefully having completed his goals and leaving behind a independent country. Rip 😔🌷

[@grapentine739]

RIP Castro. what a courageous soul, fighting to free families from oppression. Survived 600+ assassination attempts by a nation that topples more democracies than any other. He succeeded at serving his people well.

[@llikln2061]

RIP FIDEL CASTRO!! The one with so much heart and imperturbable believe who saw 19 US presidents Code and go but he was standing there!! THE WORLD HAD A CASTRO!!

[@MexicanBandit]

Lli Kln Don’t you find that disgusting? Being president shouldn’t be a lifelong position, many revolutions around the world were fought to stop just that

[@l.b.7791]

@@MexicanBandit A president should be able to serve lifelong if the people want so.

[@itatube7594]

Super hero among the heroes of 20 century. Respect

[@timewithdavid1583]

Our hero. Our champion. Our inspiration. Viva Fidel!

[@commonsense124]

His death brought hooe to millions.

[@blitherbox7467]

If only they realized how little respect they actually have. That would have been funny.

SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FREEDOM FIGHTER HOW GOD NEVER FORGET THE INNOCENT GOD GIVES FIDEL TO THE WORLD TO RESCUE THE PEOPLE FROM TYRANNY AND HE DID LONG LIVE FIDEL 🙏♥️🇬🇧

[@patriciacalunniato]

well he did last a long time ruthless but well loved

[@aatayyab]

But Patricia, is the word "RUTHLESS" appropriate in the background of his funeral? He was clearly cherished by his own people for more than 50 years. Isn't Al Jazeera's reporter Alan Fisher demonizing Fidel Castro in a way by calling him ruthless? And if that's true, what will Al Jazeera gain from such a twisted reporting? I'm a bit perplexed.

[@aspiknf]

Patricia, YOU'RE SPREADING FALSE AMERICAN CAPITALIST PROPAGANDA

[@eliafrikha3948]

Americans hate the fact the rest of the world isn't brainwashed like they're.

[@MehdiBaalou]

Cuba ❤

[@slydesplaylists]

Ruth Fidel, never knew her , Well reported anyway Al Jaz it's kinda expected .

[@eleonoramarkopaljusevic3501]

Rip Fidel Castro

[@ebrimabajo809]

you best

[@mandanageith9463]

In every country the law and legal system put criminals and corrupt people in prison , so you have to find out what was his conviction

[@teeteeme5752]

so where are the ones jubilating his passing because i see more people commemorating with him. The foolishness American propoganda.

[@xxelmigue1784]

are you cuban ????? because if you were you would knew the answe to that question

[@aatayyab]

Did I just hear Al Jazeera's Reporter Alan Fisher saying this right? "The remains of Fidel Castro will now be taken on a short journey around the country that he led so RUTHLESSLY for more than 50 years."

[@xr7tm475]

I never seen so many poor ppl with great backpacks?

[@jurielle9918]

Fidel will see Kennedy in heaven for sure

[@grapentine739]

That was quite a beautiful thing you said. Wouldn't that be something if they really are. Maybe they have seen Mandala too

[@TravisLoneWolfWalsh]

Viva Fidel

[@internetmail3888]

A testament to the gullibility of the human race.

[@mariagaganta4925]

What 😷 Is that?

[@felipenative]

People have no clue that Cuba lives in poverty. He had good ideals, but just that. Good ideals.

[@RN-qg8vs]

Yeah but when you compare the quality of life of Cuban with respect to other Central American countries Cubans doing way better. If it wasn't to US sanctions Cubans would have achieve more success.

[@DavidRocha-vi6vg]

@@RN-qg8vs you sure? People be escaping and getting shot back then. That ain’t freedom.

[@personaldove]

I wonder if they will do the same for Kim Jong Un.

[@TheExplicitGuy]

These dictators devils but not worst than USA presidents such as Trump or G.W Bush who killed 5 Millions person in Afghanistan and Iraq or older presidents who killed Vietnamese people beside killing black American people by his cops inside USA.

[@mr.punkie5872]

While the world pays their final respect to Fidel, Satan 😈 is having a good ol jolly time with him.

Cubans: "I'm so glad he's dead! He imprisoned my father and caused torment to us!" 19 Year old college student: ACKTUALLY

[@Behemoth29]

I think there's literally millions of Cubans who would disagree with you, given the outpouring of grief in Cuba.

[@Ktaurus26]

Michaeltv100 gusanos in Miami aren't Cubans.

[@fuckwarsmokeweed2876]

Michaeltv100 This is the reason why one must explore different avenues of information. When you only get one perspective, you lack the full vision you need make a proper assessment.

[@BXGUY73]

True, the many of the Cubans in Miami are TOTAL SELL-OUT$. It's one thing to leave Cuba, but another to help the USA make life for your family members still living in Cuba very difficult, and also help the USA gain control of Cuba only so that they can continue to exploit that nation again for their own selfish interest$ & the few elite Cubans who are only loyal to money and not the Cuban nation.

[@BXGUY73]

I wonder why he imprisoned your father? I hear, "he put my whatever in jail but they never say why. I would like to know why they were jailed, because anyone can get put in jail even here in America where you can even get shot for being Black & running away from a police officer, or lying down with your hands in the air, or black an legally carrying a firearm and telling the officer. You and others like you who make the same claim, "Castro put my blah, blah, blah in jail and never saying why it happened are only telling half the story just to make it seem as if that kind of thing only happens in Cuba. You are not in a unique situation when worse happens here and you exiles don't say a F*&KING word about it. HYPOCRITES!
