Breitbart: The death of communist tyrant Fidel Castro has yielded much-deserved coverage of the monstrous nature of his tyrannical rule.
What has gone virtually unreported, however, is the direct and instrumental role Castro played in the torture and murder of American POWs in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. The story of Castro’s atrocities against American soldiers in this conflict is rarely ever told, least of all by our mainstream media.
During the Vietnam War, Castro sent a gang of his henchmen to run the “Cuban Program” at the Cu Loc POW camp in Hanoi, which became known as “the Zoo.” As Stuart Rochester and Frederick Kiley have documented in their book Honor Bound in a chapter entitled “The Zoo, 1967–1969: The Cuban Program and Other Atrocities,” one of the primary objectives of this “program” was to determine how much physical and psychological agony a human being could withstand.
My local paper published multiple articles praising Fidel for all he did for the Cuban people. “Free” education and healthcare. Never mind both were worthless. One columnist actually stated that if Cuba had free and fair elections the last 50 years Castro would have always won. He was a murdering thug and this is one of the few articles that mentions this. It also says something about presidents Carter and Obongo who supported him. Pray that some day the Cuban people will enjoy liberty and freedom again.
We need a South Florida. Let’s take over Cuba. Should be a cakewalk.
Castro was Saddam Hussein of the West, but dictatorial Marxism is acceptable for some reason (special thanks to Jane Fonda, NYT, et.al.)
I just got a new shirt in the mail.

^^^^ It was $10 from Magpul, note the misspelling.
I first read about these Cubans torturing our prisoners in North Vietnam in a book about the POWs during the 1980s. The book was by John G. Hubbell, and it was the definitive history of all of the POWs captured in Southeast Asia. It’s a 660 page tome, and it is a great history of American endurance and fortitude. Patriotic Americans must never forget the sacrifices of our servicemen who were prisoners of war in WWII, Korea, and Vietnam.
This explains the love and accolades Obama piled upon Castro.
Complete alienation of our allies and embracing the enemies of the US.
Rescind US support of Cuba and the murderers who remain in dictatorial control over a people who desire to be free.
So they cremated the filthy grub, I’ll bet that set off a out of control grease fire that left a oily soot over the entire island.
Article states it’s suspected some of the torturers may still be living in the US. Where’s McCain on this??? He’s against “torturing” jihadis, but American POW’s, his brothers in captivity, not so much.
I learn more on iotw than anywhere. Thank you for sharing these stories. I had no idea that Castro had done that.
