INTERNASIONAL - Amid the grief of the Cuban people lament the death of Fidel Castro, apparently not all of the people of the country mourned cigars.
In fact, not a few who rejoiced at the death of the controversial figure.
As reported by the Associated Press, Sunday (11/27/2016), Cubans living in exile precisely in Miami, Florida, USA, fanfare heard Castro's death.
Thousands of people who mostly fled the Castro regime, took to the streets in Miami cheering, honking car horns and waving flags of Cuba and the United States.
They wore t-shirts reading "Veterans of the Gulf War Pigs".
One of them is Rafael Torre. He stood with hundreds of other Cubans celebrate the happy news to them that,
"We tried for over 50 years to remove him, but not being successful. Now she has died and maybe things will change, maybe in 3-4 years, there may be people's revolution in the streets, "said Torre.
The 80-year-old veteran is one who supports the failed attempt United States Intelligence Agency (CIA) to overthrow Castro through invasion at the Bay of Pigs in 1961 ago.
"I believe this is the beginning of the end of the Castro, Fidel was the architect of all of this. I'm emotional. I'm glad he finally died. I celebrated a hope, "said Alex Pineiro (32 years old).
"We celebrated like a carnival. Satan, Fidel now belongs to you. Punish him accordingly. Do not let him rest at ease, "said Jay Fernandez (71), another Cuban citizen who had been imprisoned twice by the Castro regime.
Jay managed to escape to Miami in 1961.
After Castro took power in a bloodless coup in 1959, thousands of Cubans fled the communist regime which according to them is very repressive.
Most fled to South Florida. Miami became the closest town and can be reached by boat from Havana.
Not a few who died before reaching the destination. The escapees then formed anti-Castro group and hope the communist revolutionary figure can be overthrown, even though it never happened.
The majority of second and third generation breakout later became prominent US politicians.
Mention the name of Florida Senator Marco Rubio and Texas Sen. Ted Cruz advanced into the presidential candidate in the 2016 election.
"He is not the person that should be admired, he should be condemned," said Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, a member of the US House of Representatives from Republicans for Florida, who was born in Cuba and fled with her parents.
