Cuba's Fidel Castro with Venezuelan President Hugo ChavezIn his first two articles in the Cuban Communist Party's newspaper, Granma, since becoming ill last year, President Fidel Castro lashed out at the recently signed ethanol deal between Brazil and the US. In an April 3 article he described it as "the internationalization of genocide".

Why is is we are focusing on producing ethanol form food crops when theoretically it can be produced from biological waste? Isn't ethonal made from biomass anyway which includes animal waste, agricultural residue, and the likes?
The Left and their "usefull idiots"...

the ranks of the left are pathetic... only an idiot could possibly believe anything they say or write....

Well the importation of Brazilian ethanol frees up corn for food. Corn is an inefficient and a land destroying means of producing ethanol. Like we dont know that. Brazil has plenty of water, I think of the Amazon when I think of water, it is sort of iconic. Castro's concern for American agriculture is curious at best, of what business is it of his what the U.S. does with what it grows.
Brazzil.com using Green Left columinists now...?
written by Samar Rukavina, April 16, 2007
I'm dissappointed to read Brazzill.com using the extreme Left Green Left's Zoe Kenny article regarding ethanol.What do Green Lefties have against ethanol? Obviously, another Leftie whine-fest about a technology Ms. Kenny knows little about. The apocolyptic doom of her article and irrelevant quotes about ethanol from Presidente Castro shows even old and new communists push fear rather than fact.

Ethanol production will grow and will be substainable. Brazil's and U.S' food supply will not be compromised. What is promising is the fact that less reliance on petroleum scares the Left and their hero Sr.Chavez, who has made it his mission to subvert the recent Brazil-US ethanol treaty. Ethanol production is natural, renewable, and beneficial. Too, it would reduce the amout of petroleum consumed by Brazil and the U.S. :Thus, benefitting both nations.

I wish Brazzil.com would spare the Liberal Left whine on its web page. Brazil is at the forefront of Ethanol and the world will follow its lead.


Castro reminds me of the oratory style of Hitler and the intellectual where with all of El Duce, an economic Einstein he aint
written by AES, April 16, 2007
Yeh Castro theres a f**king economic genius, just look how he has transformed Cuba to the paradise that it is where there is chicken and steak in everybody's freezers, and people lounge in their backyards by the pool with the sound of smiling childrens laughter.

I disagree. Most of the members of this august forum and I firmly believe in freedom of speech. Also Brazzil.com is consistant with its policy "We don´t take sides.We take all sides".

Now that Zoe Kenny has transmitted the "Great Thoughts" of Los Comandantes Sr and Jr,it is up to us to contest her.AES has already taken the lead and lets wait for other lads and lasses in this form to exercise their freedom of speech on this issue.

I just want to mention that El Comandante Jr. demonstrated his unstatemanly posture by organizing an Anti Bush rally in Argentina when George Bush was visiting Uruguay. Quite disgusting to say the least.

I thought you were a big fan of Fidel and Chavez. My apologies .

You may be happy to know that I did convey your best regards to our President and defense minister. The latter is very displeased with you. He wants to court martial and send you in front of a firing squad. Paredão para te meu caro.

If I recall my modern history, uncle Fidel has been the longest ruling dictator of a country. Not even Salazar,Franco,Stoessner and Gaddaffi. Please do correct me if I am wrong.
The price of longevity
written by AES, April 17, 2007
Yeh he is the longest and in the begining he killed all his competition, was known as a paranoid. Then he had the protection of the Soviets, so it is really only the last ten years that he stands on his own, though he doesnt look very well. He trained at university as a lawyer, kind of an educated Arafat, who buy the way came from Egyptian money. How the rich enjoy patronizing the poor into greater misery and poverty. But yes he is the last of his breed, though they kept resurrecting Franco for years, the rumor of his death were bandied about for a few years.

Thanks once again for refreshing my memory about the last days of Franco. I think we are seeing the replay of the same movie with Fidel as the new actor.48 years in power is a long time for a country to stomach. Now he has passed on the power to his brother Raul and his son is next in the line of succession.Castro Dynasty?. I would rather call it Castor Oil Dynasty.

,,Will Condemn Three Billion People to Death, Says Fidel.
written by Ric, April 17, 2007
Give credit where credit is due. Stop changing the subject, enough snivelling. Listen to the man. If anyone in the hemisphere is an expert on the subject of condemning people to death, it would be he.

in ww2 a lot of farm equipment ran off methnane made from chicken dropings .

use old presure cooker 2 gal type 1 1/2 coups water , 2 pounds of dropins and set in sun to cook off put in a dry carb on motor and there you go , best to use caca from herbavors as the it breaks down to gas faster than other forms of waste.

or just go to the worse smelling waste plant and put a lid on it rubber a vacaum pump at the hottest part of the day pump it off you got fuel smilies/wink.gif

Ethanol is a loser compared with butanol, which requires no flex dual fuel system, can be produced from plants or biomass, C4Hten0. It has a future.
Castro the Profit
written by Robert L Birt, May 15, 2007
I am a veteran of the U.S Army from the time when my nation was poised to invade Cuba. My extended family members served in the Spanish American War. My undergraduate work included a couse in agricultural economics. With that background stated I would like to say that Castro is a bright light for the people of the southern Americas. The rush to use agricultural lands for vehicle fuel production will cause problems for the world. Thanks Dr Castro for some common sense. smilies/smiley.gif
