"Castro addresses Obama on use of nuclear force" by Will Weissert, Associated Press | August 8, 2010
HAVANA — A lively and healthy-looking Fidel Castro, dressed in olive-green fatigues without military insignias, immediately took the podium and delivered a fiery 11-minute speech on his fears of an impending global nuclear war.
He implored Obama and other wealthy nations to make sure such an event never happens....
Castro, who has written on the topic of nuclear war for the past several months, maintains that the United States and Israel will attack Iran and that Washington could also target North Korea.
One could dismiss those as the ravings of a senile old man except they are not far from the realm of possibility at all.
