Why doesn't he show up if he's recovering as they say in Cuba. Is Fidel dead and they are transplanting Fidel's face on another guy to put him up there in a couple of weeks and say that Fidel is still alive? Que pasa?

They just don't want to show him lying in a hospital bed. It would injure his public image, which is all he has left.

Fidel Castro, Political Leader
* Born: 13 August 1926
* Birthplace: Oreinte Province, Cuba
* Best Known As: Marxist revolutionary and leader of Cuba
Fidel Castro has been the undisputed leader of Cuba since 1959, when his Marxist revolutionary forces toppled the regime of Fulgencio Batista. Castro was educated in Catholic schools and studied law at the University of Havana. In 1953 he was involved in a first unsuccessful attempt to overthrow Batista. Imprisoned, then exiled to Mexico, Castro returned to Cuba in 1956 to again lead a revolution. He joined forces with revolutionary Ernest "Che" Guevara and overthrew Batista in 1959. Ãastro led Cuba in overcoming U.S. opposition (including assassination attempts and the famous 1961 Bay of Pigs invasion ordered by John F. Kennedy) largely through the support of the now-defunct Soviet Union. On July 31, 2006, he had intestinal surgery and entrusted leadership to his brother Raul. It was the first time Castro had relinquished power.
Fidel's younger brother Raúl is his longtime deputy and second-in-command. Raúl was born on 3 June 1931... Some scholars believe that Fidel Castro was born in 1927. Peter G. Bourne's 1986 book Fidel, for instance, suggests that his birthdate was pushed back to 1926 so that Fidel could be enrolled in school a year early. In his 1998 autobiography Fidel: My Early Years, Castro himself gives 1926 as the year, and continues: "I was 26 when I began the armed struggle, and I was born on the 13th, which is half of 26... Now that I think of it, there may be something mystical about the number 26."

Fidel went to Canada for his operation. He just has to wait about 6 weeks until it's his turn.
