Very scary. Last politician from the US to shake hands with a Castro? Democrat Bill Clinton, in 2000.
What do you think about these two thugs shaking hands? |

The thing is that Castro is a ruthless dictator, who together with Fidel have oppressed Cuba since 1959.
We should not be kind and "nice" to dictators. I think shaking hands with Castro sends the message that accept Cuba as a nation. We don't, and we shouldn't. Cuba is a terrorist state. |

> get him fired
I sure wouldn't mind having Obama impeached. But not just for this, but for his entire 5-year war on freedom and capitalism. |

| Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't it Fox news who compared obamacare to apartheid? |

| They did. I personally believe that was a bit over the top, though. |

We should respect all people no matter how cruel or bitter they are. I think Obama did a nice gesture.
Stop making such a controversy about this. It's just a man shaking hands with another hand. |

o no Obama shook hands with a world leader among 50 some others he must be working for terrorist groop
But really, its a funeral for a leader of a country. What do you think he'd do, spit in his eye? He was being polite, as he was to every other official there. |

| Because he's making major decisions like shaking hands with a leader at a funeral. |

| What did you expect them to do? Spit in each other's faces? Or worse, ignore them? Mandela was a great man, so why ruin his funeral with a bit of rough history between the countries? |

| I've changed my position on this. Seeing as both Mandela, Obama, and Castro are thugs, I guess it's just natural for them to be so happy with each other. I suppose I expected Obama to make the right decision for once, but unfortunately he never has and never will. |

| Obama reminds me of Neville Chamberlain, shaking hands with the Third Reich's leader. Shameful to live in a country like this. |

| Because people who create militant terrorist organizations (Spear of the Nation) to terorrize people and bring down the government are apparently good guys now. Never he mind he served 27 years in jail for terrorism. |

After warning the South African government in June 1961 of its intent to begin retaliatory acts if the government did not take steps toward constitutional reform and destruction of apartheid, MK launched its first terrorist attacks against government installations on 16 December 1961. It was subsequently classified as a terrorist organisation by the South African government and the United States, and banned. |
