I don't know that I'd believe anything that Goldberg says. He is a tool with an agenda. Latest assignment to get the US to bomb Iran or at least give Israel the green light.

Yup - well called, Magda.

Former Cuban leader Fidel Castro Former president Fidel Castro is reported to have said: 'The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore.'

Fidel Castro said today that his comment to a US journalist about Cuba's system not working had been misinterpreted.

The former president told a meeting at the University of Havana that the remark, which caused a sensation when reported earlier this week, did not reflect his view. He meant "the exact opposite", he said.

Jeffrey Goldberg, a national correspondent for the Atlantic magazine, reported that at the end of a long lunch last month he asked the 84-year-old communist revolutionary if Cuba's economic system was still worth exporting to other countries. He said Castro replied: "The Cuban model doesn't even work for us anymore."
