How The Rumor Was Started
11 July 2006
False Alarm
Sure, it sounded too good to be true and I was trying to help get Frank some credit as a source. Via Pajamas Media is a good round-up at Fausta's blog. Maybe the rumors got started by the announcement of a post-Castro transition plan.

U.S. Unveils Post-Castro Transition PlanOn a related note. If your Che T-shirt is becoming threadbare from attending too many anti-war rallies, Al Zarqawi's mom has a replacement for you. The old image of Che has been replaced with a current terrorist. You don't want to be living in the past do you?
WASHINGTON, July 10 (UPI) -- U.S. President George Bush Monday approved a comprehensive report on how the United States would assist a possible transition to democracy in Cuba.
The 93-page report outlines a strategy in which the United States would help facilitate the transition following the death of Fidel Castro, who has led the communist island for more than 40 years.
The report includes details of how $80 million program 'will support the Cuban people as they transition from the repressive control of the Castro regime to freedom and a genuine democracy,' said a White House statement released Monday.
Castro turns 80 in August.
The report also details how the Bush administration plans to tighten longstanding sanctions against Cuba and thwart the delivery of aid to groups with ties to the present Cuban government.

Good news! I saw at IMAO that Frank read that Jonah Goldberg heard from someone who heard from someone else that Fidel Castro is dead.
