Venezuela's Chavez rebuffs rumours of Castro's death

Caracas - Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez on Saturday rebuffed rumours that his ailing ally, Cuban President Fidel Castro, has passed away. 'For those who want him to die, they will get frustrated, because Fidel Castro will never die,' Chavez told a socialist rally in the capital Caracas. 'He will always live among the people that fight for a better destiny. He will always live in the people of Cuba, Venezuela and the Americas.' His comments came amid rumours over the last week that the 81- year-old Castro's health was worsening. The Cuban government has remained silent.

It matters not if F. Castro dies. What is more important is that his dictatorial philosophy is forever buried.
