5. Cuba's Castro has operation, delegates power

"Cuban President Fidel Castro underwent intestinal surgery on Monday and delegated government functions provisionally to his younger brother Raul Castro, the government said in a televised statement signed by the Cuban leader.

Castro, who turns 80 on August 13 and has led Cuba since a 1959 revolution, delegated his posts as first secretary of the ruling Communist Party, commander in chief of the armed forces and president of the executive council of state to his brother."

8. I can remember when CANF founder Jorge Mas Canosa...

...was dying from lung cancer and his family refused to release details of how seriously ill he was because they didn't want Castro and the people in Cuba to know that the head gusano was on his deathbed.
