To all who say Fidel Castro is history, recent developments in his level of activity — including walks with Garcia Marquez and long phone calls with his friend Huguito — prove otherwise. Today Castro published his second article this week in Cuba’s Granma criticizing Bush and Brazilian president Lula’s ethanol plan, apparently motivated by Lula’s visit to Camp David (read the transcript).

“At Camp David Bush declared his intention to apply this formula on a global level, which amounts to nothing less than the internalization of genocide.”

According to Venezuelan daily El Universal, Castro’s first article in Granma this week was also about the same topic, though this one seems to be more critical of his friend Lula. He did add: “It’s not my intention to hurt Brazil nor get involved in issues related to internal politics of the country.”

He may not be getting involved, but he is predicting the end of the world as we know it due to this plan:

“The worst is about to happen: a war to ensure gas and petroleum supplies which puts the human species on the verge of total holocaust.”

So is Castro back in black? El Universal says that Evo claims that his “abuelo sabio” Fidel will be ready to reappear in public on the 28th of this month.
