[AndrewsOpinion15]

GOD GIVE US BACK ED SULLIVAN IN RETURN WILL GIVE U PARIS HILTON TIGER WOODS NAOMI CAMPBELL 3 FOUR 1 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[FelipeReyes38]

wow that was great a piece of history to bad it didnt end like we would of like

[sbgskf]

VIVA FIDEL!

Thank you very much for this, amazing. For all you brain-washed Amerikans, just look how even mainstream America admired Fidel before the brain-washing and CIA-cold warriors took control!

[xtremelygoodlookin]

Fidel takes the colour green to a whole new level, what a fashion icon!!! Sadly you can't see it in this video.

[susankohistany]

President Kennedy was Catholic and so was Castro and they both came into power at the same time

[TheBelldiver]

US Mafia wanted to control Cuba. Castro said NO F'n way. Wise up America.

[LyleLincoln]

@TheBelldiver Thank you so much for having the courage and intelligence to see through the red herring of the major medias. I concur with your comment. I feel Wm.F.Buckley Jr. would agree with us. I often compared Castro to Washington. This man stands between US and Russia still with great skill. Nixon and Reagen greatly admired Castro. True fact: Castro favored Kennedy and Nixon the most.

ahh fidel castro, a fine young man....LMAOF!!!

[gentlestormtoo]

good old, ass kissing Sullivan

[ENCO12357]

This is hilarious, I got to hand it to Fidel, this is a Oscar performance moment for Castro, what acting!! He had the media and Ed Sullivan eating out of his hand like trained pigeons.

[PerlitaHabanera]

there he goes saying he was not communist, that Batista was the last dictator of Cuba. He didn't fought against the "imperialism yanqui" like he wants everybody in Cuba and South America to belive.

[piopioify]

LA HISTORIA LO TIENE ABSUELTO

[SomoshiphopRadio]

@piopioify Amen! Y el Mismo Lo dijo!

[unclejuniorsoprano]

Castro was a fine young dictator who made life impossible for millions of Cubans. I would have rather watched him throw a baseball than to answer Ed's meaningless questions.

[TheDeathofTheWhiteRo]

Look at my blog about writing The Death of the White Rose, a romance novel set in the unsettling days before and after the Castro revolution.

[locolalo1364]

Where did we fail? why no u.s puppet instead of some bastard.

[michaelterry1000]

Sullivan is showing classic American journalist naïveté. The logic being that Batista was a ruthless corrupt dictator therefore anyone that opposes him must be a hero.

[lcvd1]

@michaelterry1000 You are one of the many that only get there news source ONE WAY—the U.S propaganda machine, where they feed you what you want to hear. I Have been listening both ways from many years because I understand both languages perfectly. I listen to Cuba, Venezuela and U.S news and I'm very familiar with what's going on out there in terms of skewing the news. Something you will never understand if you're a monoglot. I'm no socialist, but you must cut the crap they feed you here.

[michaelterry1000]

@lcvd1 Did you read my comment at all or did you just decide to give a canned response to anything that wasn't in praise of Castro? In this case my anger was with the BS softball questions asked by Ed Sullivan not with Castro. This crappy journalism continues with the reporting of the uprising in Libya and the middle east i.e. Gaddafi is evil so anyone that opposes him must be good. I am not a monoglot.

[starlight76able]

Fidel was delicious.Long live Fidel.

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

Ed Sullivan had guts interviewing him with those guns around.

Castro was and is feared by many.

George Vreeland Hill

[sulkierknight]

@GeorgeVreelandHill Did you really sign a youtube comment? And more people fear George Bush or Obama than Castro.

[bestfilmz]

@iloveoreos15 And this is coming from someone whos username is iloveoreos15?

Anyway back on topic; So your impling that Castro is a good man? I don't need to live in Cuba to know Castro is a sick bastard. I have the internet, The History Channel, and school. Also please don't use, "These forms of media are lying to you!" as a comeback because it will make you look like more of a dumbass.

[bestfilmz]

Hopefully most of you know Fidel Castro is a sick bastard. Yeah he took control of Cuba that a great achievement but you have to ask yourself was it for the better or the worst? Do any of you know have the slightest idea of how poor the quality of life in Cuba is? Of course you don't.

[iloveoreos15]

@bestfilmz Have you lived in Cuba? If not. please keep your trap shut. 

[The3000Exterminator]

One day I m gonna grow up to be like fidel

[CounterNerd]

Shame that the audio is so terrible!

[jetmemphis83]

Castro kinda reminds me of liam neeson

[chris96kalonji]

Illuminati aren't devil worshippers, they're just rich white men who control the world. Only stupid ass religious fanatics think they're devil worshippers, and they're making the intellegent people look like idiots. That's probably the main idea.

[irish89055]

democratic institutions lol..... George Washington... Ed you dope..... JFK, you should have given the ok for air support at the Bay of Pigs....

[TKEMP360]

What a nice guy :D

[bubbazep01]

I wish Ed shot that bastard right then & there. I wish he knew how bad Castro really was. I felt bad just watching this, but I watched anyway because I never knew this interview took place.

[strattfordcrass]

@bubbazep01: I wish Cheney had killed Bush when he had chance. I wish he knew how bad McCain is and had killed him too with a bitchslap

[bubbazep01]

I wish Ed shot that bastard right then & there.

[1900RitaGret]

He is a lier as usual, thousand people die on the see because of him, murder......

[flaco046]

@1900RitaGret Not only in the sea. He killed thousands of opositors to the regime and still they are killing people. By the way yesterday they kill a one on Santa Clara. He is also well known as an international terrorist responsible of the foundations of groups as the Narco Gerrilas od Colombia, Sendero Luminoso in Peru and all the central and south American gerrillas. He also is been training and providing weapons and money to Europeans groups as ETA and IRA.

[yourpalsteve]

Maybe we are not as free as we think we are . Has this really been supressed so

long? Was the media so embarrassed by it that they hid it from us?

Control the media and you control the people.

We really have to forever guard our freedoms ... what else has been whitewashed by the press? The press (?) with the help of the intel agencies are hiding Obama's true birthplace.

[StandardSam1]

Naaaa, it's Liam Neeson!!!

[autonomia386]

Viva la revolucion, from Havana to Madison to Cairo

[krueger92]

[rcmlainez08]

[flaco046]

@rcmlainez08 The best doing terrorism in the whole Cuban History, the best liar I ever knew. A criminal delinquent who took ilegally the goverment.

[majajh]

Murderer of Christians.

[lcvd1]

@majajh What kind of propaganda are you reading? Probably the one you get fed here in the U.S. We have murdered more Christians than any nation.

[spacepatrolman]

What a lying, thieving, murdering, son of a bitch this bastard is. Too bad Sullivan and so many others were suckered. He was already a murderer when interviewed in this clip.
