Do most Cubans feel the death of Fidel Castro?





















by Manuel A Morejon Soler 

Since retiring ten years ago, Fidel Castro was a political corpse. But he died and the Cubans received the orientation of crying.
Is it sincere the regret of the Cubans that is shown in the official media? Is it the majority?
As always, the official media have supported this new farce of the regime: "the pain of the Cubans for the death of Fidel."
There are Cubans who are in some way committed to the regime and who have suffered the death of their leader, but they are not the majority.
Recall that there are 700 000 members of the Communist Party. And in Cuba there are more than eleven million inhabitants. 
Were the homage to the deceased leader spontaneous?
The students, wearing their school uniforms, were taken to the funeral of Fidel Castro. They are indoctrinated in schools, but when they get tired of the limitations imposed on them, they become the main detractors of the regime. 
They also took employees from many work centers. They had no choice but to go, not to be "dirty", "not to be noted".
A spontaneous concentration was the one that occurred in the Ciudad Deportiva, last March, when the concert of the Rolling Stones. Nobody came because the government called it. People went by their means, rock'n roll.
But there were calls and attendance lists for Fidel Castro's funeral.
Authorities placed transport to transport workers and students, and printed pullovers for the occasion. 
Everything was a circus, magnified by the official means.
The Spanish theologian José Antonio Fortea recently commented: "The time is up for Fidel Castro. Now there is no power on earth, no saint or angel who can grant him forgiveness. Now he is alone, with his soul. Locked up in the terrible prison of his soul. In the dark realm of Satan or in the immaterial prisons of the place of purification. He, who sentenced so many (...) will no longer find forgiveness in this world or in heaven.
The journalist Fernando Dámaso wrote: "After these nine days, declared of national mourning, and forced the population of all ages to mourn by prohibitions of all kinds, and to sign a commitment of loyalty that soon will be forgotten and very few will fulfill, the Life on the Island, now totally paralyzed, must start. The question is, what will happen? " 
On October 23, 1995, Fidel Castro, interviewed by CNN, said: "What will stop in Cuba after my death is not my problem; Is a problem of others ... The dead do not think ".
He forgot to think about God's opinion. 
Regarding whether Fidel Castro benefited the humble at some point in history, let me quote José Martí, when in a letter to Fermín Valdés Domínguez, May, 1894, he referred to "... the ambitious, that to rise in the World, begin to pretend, to have shoulders to rise, frantic defenders of the homeless ... ¨
